On a technical basis we are a clan guild which means that we can only accept members of clan alignment. But we act like neutral guild in that aspect that everyone is welcome to our parties be you netural, clan or omni.

At the moment we are NOT hiring new people (as it says on the website) and I cannot say when we will expand.

Omni fiend!!

:evil:

As they mentioned, Gridstream acts neutral, and their DJ parties are open to all, unless held in a Clan-city Area, but its usually at Reets Retreat.

Librarious Metallicus gets SHATIZAR

REVIEW:
Band Description Shatizar are an interesting band to say the least. They formed in New York City but have since moved to Puerto Rico. Their stage shows are purpoted to be quite entertaining, featuring effects and costumes (described by someone as looking like something from The Road Warrior movie, an accurate comparison). Musically they are all over the place, with elements of so many genres at different times in their music (hardcore, death metal, stoner rock, technical metal, funk, jazz, etc). Atop all experimental music, we have female vocals nearly as varied as Karyn Crisis. I'm hard pressed to call them any genre in particular, so I'll stick with the generic 'heavy metal' for lack of a better-suited description. While the demo suffers from a weak production, the debut has a more polished sound (but still definitely indie-sounding). While Shatizar probably aren't for everyone, I recommend them to the adventurous listeners out there.

Here is the link to this Shatizar review on the Aural Innovation
on-line magazine:

Check out the link, it's got a nifty pic.


Shatizar - "Nanotech or Global Wreck"
(2002, band released CD-R demo)

From Aural Innovations #22 (January 2003)

Looking like refugees from the set of The Road Warrior, the members of Shatizar claim they were astronauts sent by the government on a secret mission to space, where they encountered the Korelyans, and have now returned to Earth to bring the Korelyan message of peace and preservation of our world.

Shatizar is a trio of musicians originally from New York, who now base themselves out of Puerto Rico, and includes Sasha Harsh on bass and lead vocals, Illyich on guitar and backing vocals, and Zar on drums and backing vocals. Drawing on influences from early 80's post punk, like The Slits and other proto grrrl power bands, and the pre-industrial, doomy sci-fi rock of Chrome, Shatizar amps up the energy, and belts out their songs with in-your-face attitude to spare.

What sets them apart from their post-punk forebears, though, is the complexity of their arrangements. Zar especially sets the tone, pounding out complicated, ever changing rhythms on the skins, from the syncopated beats that characterized the reggae roots of post punk, to driving machine-like rhythms, to wild tribal freakouts. Sasha Harsh is up to the challenge on bass, and her punk-style vocals, while rarely
understandable, still add to the frenzied energy of the songs.
Meanwhile, Illyich's guitar cuts through it all like a buzz saw.

Is it the sound of the future, or a blast from the past? You be the judge.

You can visit Shatizar at their web site: www.shatizar.com, and
hear some sound clips from their full-length album, Global Warming.
