// 2000 - 2008 August, 21 - 2008 It’s a shame that such a good maxim is taken and commercialized by Nelly Furtado but yeah all good things come to an end and today we decided to stop our activities as a band. We had a blast in these eight years, we have played each and every shitty venue in Turkey, made some amazing friends, rolled in dirt and mud. However, as of this summer we came to a point where we can’t agree on how our music should sound like and unfortunately we have to use another cliche to explain the situation: Nettlethrone broke up as a result of musical differences. There is not a tragic level of the situation, we didn’t throw bricks to each others’ faces, we’re still really good friends. In fact, this farewell does not mean that you’ll be able to get rid of us cause we’ll keep playing in other shitty bands. Burak and Mustafa will continue with their recently formed old school death metal trio Burial Invocation (with Cenotaph guitarist Cihan Akün) and they’re going to release their first demo of putrid reeking 90s worship death metal incantation very soon. Tankut will eventually find time to focus on his modern metal band Mental Implant and Kaya will most likely team up with Burak for thousands of other projects (when it comes to untamed, unlistenable grindcore they’re the real deal!). We’d like to thank our brothers in Dreamtone and Decaying Purity for their endless and sincere support. We also want to extend our gratitude to our good fellows in Suicide, Self Torture, Cenotaph, Sakatat, Carnophage, Raven Woods, Burst Appeal, Dead Wish, Lifelock, Bleed Myself Tonight, Colostomy, Ghostwall Records, Midas’ın Kulaklığı Studios and Ankara extreme metal scene for their support throughout these years. “Dissonant Progression” is still available in our webstore, so if you haven’t got a copy yet, this is your last chance to have it. We'll also play a final gig in Ankara with Carnophage. Date and venue details will be disclosed in near future so check out this page to not miss your last opportunity to see us on stage. *** Çok klise olacak farkındayız ama her iyi seyin sonu vardır lafını umarsızca kullanacağız, bugun itibariyle grup olarak calısmalarımıza son verme kararı aldık. Aktif oldugumuz bu sekiz yıl icinde hayatımızın en eglenceli gunlerini yasadık, berbat mekanlarda konserler verdik, bircok harika insan tanıdık, dere tepe duz gittik yolları asındırdık. Fakat 2008 yazı artık muzikal olarak grubun nereye gitmesi gerektigi konusunda yasadıgımız kararsızlıgın tavan yaptıgı donem oldu. Evet tekrar bir kliseye sıgınacagız ama durumu bundan daha iyi acıklamayız: Nettlethrone muzikal farklılıklardan oturu dagılma kararı almıstır. Dagılma kararımızın ardında herhangi bir anormal hikaye yok, dordumuz de hala cok iyi arkadasız. Hatta bu ayrılık bile bizden kurtulmanızı saglayamayacak cunku hepimiz yeni gruplarla yasantımıza devam edecegiz. Burak ve Mustafa, Cenotaph gitaristi Cihan Akun ile kurdukları leş kokulu 90lar death metali alameti farikası Burial Invocation ile devam ederken, Tankut da yeni modern metal grubu Mental Implant'a yogunlasacak. Kaya cok buyuk ihtimalle Burak ile birlikte milyonlarca yeni grup kurarak yoluna devam edecek. Kısacası biz bir sure daha buralarda olacagız. Dreamtone ve Decaying Purity'deki kardeslerimize yıllardır esirgemedikleri samimi ve sonsuz destekleri icin tesekkur ediyoruz. Ayrıca Suicide, Self Torture, Cenotaph, Sakatat, Carnophage, Raven Woods, Burst Appeal, Dead Wish, Lifelock, Bleed Myself Tonight, Colostomy, Ghostwall Records, Midas’ın Kulaklığı Stüdyoları ve Ankara ekstrem metal camiasına da yıllardır bize gosterdikleri destekten dolayı mutesekkiriz. "Dissonant Progression" online dukkanımızda hala satısta, hala edinmediyseniz daha fazla gec kalmayın. Son olarak veda konserimizi Carnophage ile birlikte Ankara'da verecegiz, detaylar cok yakında acıklanacak. Herkese tesekkurler, bizden simdilik bu kadar! // Burak, Tankut, Kaya, Mustafa. // KAYA IS ENDORSED BY MASTERWORK CYMBALS April, 24 - 2008 We’re extremely proud to announce that Nettlethrone drummer Kaya Özgen Yalçın is endorsed by Masterwork Cymbals.
