23.07.2007 The new homepage of protectors industrial darkwave project Iceages is finished.
02.07.2007 A few months ago the label "Temple Of Darkness Records" contacted us about a summoning 5-LP box. Finally this box set is released under the name "Sounds of Middle - Earth" Temple Of Darkness Records.
To answer a questions i read about that release: This LP box was not released under "Napalm Records" because they don't deal with vinyl releases generally, and already collaborated with that label before.
To avoid confusions, this LP box has got nothing to do with the CD box set we talked about before. The idea of a CD box set was given up some time ago.
09.05.2007 Tabs of Summoning songs are now online on www.metaltabs.com.
28.04.2007 This info is for all the people who asked me for guitar tabs of summoning songs.
Today i realized that all of the midi tracks for the guitars of the songs from "oath bound" don't exist anymore, so i can not transform them to guitar tabs. After i played and recorded the guitars i deleted all the midi files of it. but the chance is quite high that guitar tabs will appear on MetalTabs soon. I post any news concerning this topic.
25.04.2007 Yesterday i (Protector) wrote an email to youtube in order to tell them to remove certain videos showing nazi-propaganda and using Summoning music for it. This finally brought me to the decision to recapitulate all the statements i know that show clearly that the music of summoning as well as any kind rock or metal music are in contradiction to such ideologies.
So for now and for the future. any person can use Summoning music for videos as long as they are not used for political propaganda and specially not for nazi-propaganda.
Here are the reasons why i never will accept such ideologies in connection to summoning.
Political Statements

Mistrust
More detailed comments about the new release can be found in the Summoning Forum
Generally new songs are far more polyphonic than the songs on the previous CD "In Darkness Let Me Dwell" and with much higher female vocals (done by the new singer "Christina") than before, but as dark as the previous ones.
03.08.2006 Yesterday i (protector) remixed the new summoning song, that did not have space on "Oath Bound" and which is planned for the next mini CD. Finally i switched completely to a software-sampling solution (without using my old hardware synthesisers anymore) so that for all future summonings songs we have much more freedome in sound than ever before. Also a self sampled choir sound (done by silenius, a female voice and me) is used for this song.
Still there is no name for this song existing.
24.07.2006 The Napalm Records DVD "The Realm Of Napalm Records" with videos and songs of Napalm Record bands was released today.
One of our songs "Mirdautas Vras" was used as background music in the menue, and on the bonus audio CD the short version of our song "Land Of The Dead" can be heard.
