Ouija
Ouija return; sign with Xtreem Music
Spain's most legendary black metal band Ouija have recently reformed featuring original vocalist Midgard and guitarist Map (founder and amin writer) together with three members from Spellcraft: Fulgur (drums), Aldromk (bass) and Murcilag (guitar). The band just signed a deal with Xtreem Music for the release of their upcoming mini CD due to come out in fall 2010 and their long awaited 2nd full length album for 2011.
Ouija released their debut album 'Riding into the Funeral Paths' back in 1997 on Xtreem Music's former label Repulse Records and soon reached a high status as one of Spain's pioneer and most relevant black metal acts making of this album a true cult one. The band later recorded a 2nd album which remained unfinished and wasted due to some circumstances and also provoked by the band's split-up. Ever since, vocalist Midgard has been working with also black metallers Spellcraft and it was in late '09 when he & Map decided to resurrect Ouija ten years later and stronger than ever.
The band is currently working on 4 new songs that will be recorded in later summer for a winter release and will mark the triumphant return of this mythic band whose black metal of ancient taste as well as personal, has been matured for years in the depths of hell. If you were living in another world or been shut away in a monastery and never heard about Ouija before, then we recommend you to visit their offician MySpace to listen some songs of their legendary debut album as well as some songs from that unreleased 2000's album: www.myspace.com/ouija1997
