US Black Metallers AVERSE SEFIRA have split-up. The band was formed in 1996, performed with bands like DARK FUNERAL, GORGOROTH, WATAIN, MARDUK, 1349, ABSU, ANTAEUS and SECRETS OF THE MOON and achieved a wider exposure when they signed to Candlelight Records in 2007 and released their fourth album "Advent Parallax", the following year. Formal farewell statements from founding members Sanguine Mapsama and Wrath Sathariel Diabolus can be found at the band’s official blog aversesefira.blogspot.com

THOUSAND YEAR WAR are currently working on a new EP to follow their full-length debut, "Tyrants And Men", which was released last year on Abyss Records. The EP will contain six tracks, including a cover of MISFITS’ ‘London Dungeon’. All instruments and vocals have been recorded and the tracks have been turned over to Fredrik Lunneborg of Primecut Studios in Sweden, who will handle mixing and mastering duties.
