Noise.fi best albums of first half of 2008
As we took a look at the top 20 there was nothing special about the albums but in the bubbling under section there was something
really interesting right next to Nine inch nails, a band called Wrathage. Thanks to all who voted us and yes we earned it - Crawlspace antipathy kicks ass.

New Crawlspace antipathy reviews.
The biggest finnish metal magazines Inferno and Miasma reviewed Crawlspace antipathy in their latest issues and these are now added to the media page.
J.Marttila from Miasma even decided to include the review in the proper releases section of the reviews instead of the demos section since he thought there's no point in putting it in the demos to take yet another full score.
Inferno's band of the month was Napoleon skullfukk instead of Wrathage but atleast they come from the right city.
"Thanks to both of the gentlemen A.Virtanen and J.Marttila for a professional view on our releases."

Shirts running low, want more?
So currently we only have two XL and one M sized Wrathage T-shirts left and some requests for more have already been made in different size and also as Girlie-shaped shirt.
So let us know if you'd be interested to order a Wrathage shirt and in which size and if enough people take contact we'll order some more.
Propably the back print will be reduced to only the "antipathy" text which will make the shirt cheaper than last time. Price information will follow.

Qstock 2008 now officially conquered.
Wrathage played a healthy dose of metal hell at the festival and again it was hot as hell and loud as fuck. Images from the gig added to the images section and once again a video is on it's way - stay tuned for more goodies.
"Although the audience in the festival is mainly more Rock/pop oriented we wouldn't slow down but gave our best effort and it felt damn good.
After the gig we caused even more havoc amongst the audience, it was one fine weekend there.
Thanks to Qstock staff for the venue and arrangements (and the beer), Jarkko and Juha-Pekka from Rockpolis for the gig, Mika Jokela for the excellent mixing work and all you who were present at the gig, HAIL!"

Crawlspace antipathy controversy
The first Crawlspace antipathy reviews appeared on the internet, the whole media section was also re-arranged now.
The first reviews are from Imperiumi.net and desibeli.net.
"With the covering letter for CA we mentioned that the CD is going to create controversy and we saw this immediately
as Serpent from imperiumi disliked the album where as Mikko from desibeli found some really good kicks from it.
We ain't here to please none but ourselves but it's good to see that the album causes emotions to arise,
which is the most important thing, no one likes them "it was allright" reviews and albums.
Thanks to both of the reviewers especially for Mikko, otherwise there wouldn't have been controversy only a bucket full of shit."
