Everyone that has heard the album has one thing to say...EXTREME...ALBUM...OF...THE...YEAR!!! Still don't believe us? Here's what the critics have to say.. 'An album so complete and powerful that you will wet your bed for the next month straight while being left gasping for air in disbelief and excitement after each listen...the essential destruction tool of 2003..' -metalbite.com 'Zyklon has greatness marked all over it...creating true epicness as well as cool experimentation with synths and loops' - Bravewords.com 'If you were expecting 'Aeon' to re-tread 'World Ov Worms', think again. Incredibly, it's heavier and more simplistic than the debut...taking them in a more death metal direction than ever before...'Aeon' lives up to the huge levels of expectation' - Metal Hammer 'The kind raw, ripping metal that you would from Samoth and company...they defy and surpass expectation...'Aeon' is one of those records that will be talked about for years to come...' -ytsejame.com "What Blessed Are The Sick did for death metal in 1991, ZYKLON's "Aeon" does for it in 2003. Impressive and essential death metal!" - Digital Metal "A powerful, all-encompassing opus... this is extreme metal at the height of its powers.!" - Brave Words Bloody Knuckles "Holy shit! Aeon smokes, crushes and kills!" - Metal Maniacs "Zyklon have done it again. The crown is theirs for the taking." - Into Obscurity "With one foot firmly pressing on the neck of traditional extreme metal, Zyklon have moved several steps into an altogether exciting future with this, their second album. A fiercely combative masterpiece for 2003." - Malcolm Dome MERCHANDISE/ VINYL New merchandise will be available from PHD shortly. LP version of "Aeon" will be available from Displeased Records in October. Online ordering: www.plastichead.com www.displeasedrecords.nl June 24, 2003 Web update! The website has finally been updated! Titles added to discography, additions in the member profiles, huge photo gallery, news, etc. The Psyklon Aeons awaits. Zyklon to hit the studio! Finally! The new material is completed and the band has started recording the new album at Akkerhaugen Lydstudio. The mix will be done in Sweden at Fredman Studios with producer Fredrik Nordstrøm. The new album is to be entitled "Aeon" and will include tracks as "Psyklon Aeon", "Core Solution", "Two Thousand Years", "The Prophetic Method", etc. The band is very excited to finally hit the studio. The material is more varied and the song writing in general is much stronger. The new material is also said to be way more heavy compared to the debut, probably not as intense in terms of actual speed, but aggressive no doubt! "Aeon" is scheduled for worldwide release through Candlelight Records on 08/09/03. June 17, 2003 ZYKLON MAKE LONDON PREMIERE AEON COMPLETED AND SET FOR SEPTEMBER 9TH RELEASE London: ZYKLON premiered material from their forthcoming album, Aeon, at London's famed Camden Underworld on June 6. The performance, which also included a set from labelmates Myrkskog, was preceeded by an advance listening session of Aeon for select media, including Kerrang!, Terrorizer, Rocksound, Powerplay, Total Rock as well as Germany's Legacy, Metal Hammer, Metal Heart, America's Metal Maniacs and Canada's Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles. The performance marked only the second occasion for ZYKLON to perform in England, their first while touring in support of Morbid Angel for their 2001 debut, World ov Worms. Aeon, set for worldwide release in early September, is starting to catch early fan and media attention as expectations for the album are already high. Recorded at Akkerhaugen Lydstudioin in Norway and mixed at Studio Fredman with Fredrik Nordstrom in Sweden, Aeon shows extensive growth for the band. After a visit to the studio when the band were mastering the album Dom Lawson's Kerrang had this to say "State of the art death metal that will blow your fucking nuts off" Founded in 1998, it was evident from the start that ZYKLON was to be more than just a "side project" for Emperor guitarist Samoth and drummer Trym. Teaming with Destructhor (guitar, also of Myrkskog), the trio's early rehearsals ignited a spark that would put them on the fast track. The band's debut, World ov Worms, was released in 2001 to instant media and fan acclaim. Featuring guest appeances from members of Limbonic Art and Arcturus, the album found itself upon many magazine and critic "Best of Year" lists. The London premiere also attracted the attention of metal notables - Dimmu Borgir's Nicolas Barker, Cathedral's Lee Dorian, Napalm Death's Shane Embry and Cradle of Filth's Adrian Erlansson. Album art for Aeon has been created by long-time friend and accomplished artist Stephen O'Malley (Emperor, Burzum, Darkthrone). The album features guest contributions from Void's Ocd (Nocturnal Art Productions) and again features lyrics penned by Faust (Emperor). It is the first album to feature new vocalist Secthdamon. Final track listings for Aeon: Psyklon Aeon, Core Solution, Subtle Manipulation, Two Thousand Years, No Name Above the Names, The Prophetic Method, Speciment Eruption, Electric Current, An Eclectic Manner.
