Just a quick update about the new Mezire album I told you about a few days ago… It seems that the release date discrepancy was caused by the band’s distributor which pushed it to August 31st, but the band has been selling the album since the 17th. I guess that means both dates are correct. Either way, you’ll be able to get the album without a problem.

Also, Mezire just uploaded 3 songs from the new album Corrosion Effects to their label’s site (look under the Audio link in the menu). They are also available on the band’s site in the Media page.

Thanks to Dirk and Frank from the band for letting us know about the changes.

There seems to be some confusion about Mezire’s new album Corrosion Effects. Both their site and their MySpace page say the album was already released last week on August 17th, but all of the major retailers are saying that the album isn’t out until August 31st. (Does it matter what the band says if nobody is selling it yet?) It looks like only the Zero01One shop via their site actually has the album for sale yet. This is a poorly managed CD release, for sure.

OK, so what about the music? Mezire is described as “a very extreme and perfect balanced mix between power electronics, industrial and dark elctro sounds” according to their label. You’ll have to travel to the Media page of their site to find out what this combination sounds like. But I’ll give you a hint, it’s very harsh and noisy. Actually, it sounds a lot like what I’ve been working on with my own music project. But we run into a problem again. You still won’t find any music from their new album on this Media page. How do they expect to promote their new album without giving anybody a clue about what it sounds like. I’d love to hear something from it, but they don’t seem to want to sell any music. Shame.
