Archives: Reviews

I also added the reviewer in every review (since some reviews were made by Morphzombie (hi, Davide!). Also added some seven inches reviews. What’s nice is that I found several dozens more reviews in old html files. Wow, seems like a lot of work indeed!

Hello, hello, hello. Nuclear Abominations has not been the most regular of publications in the multiverse so far, that I acknowledge. However one year of silence has been enough to put everything in order and manage the strength to start all over again. Right last month I grabbed all the old material and started the project of a new design for the infamous webzine. The last issue of the PAPER ‘zine can still be ordered for 5 EUROS, shipping included, world-wide. I still have some copies home, and they can also be ordered though Nuclear Winter (Greece) and possibily also Northern Heritage (Finland) and Nuclear War Now! (USA) as well (but these last two are not confirmed, we discussed about it some time ago but I need to recontact them).

Regarding the label, many things happened during my year of hiatus. A good half of the projects have been fucked up, for one reason or another. I will prepare a release schedule shortly so you will know what happened to all the planned releases. One thing I can anticipate is the Nuclear Death demo anthology is almsot ready and will be the very first Nuclear Abominations release of 2006. Some EPs and vinyl projects had a high priority but I need to slide them a bit forward in time since they’re just too expensive and inproductive. I need a new start and I need a Cd to begin with, sorry.

The Webzine: As stated before, the webzine is under reconstruction but it shows some progress. If you want to send me some material for review I will be glad to review it. beware that stuff that just does not fit the mood of the zine will be discarded. There is no point to butcher a record I don’t like, since it will both waste my time, the label’s money and it will not interest the readers. I will make sure to send you an email if this is the case. No snail mail in this case, sorry.

I bought another goddamned hard disk last week. I have recovered some of the work I did on the new Nuclear Abominations website, although I had to admit the concept didn’t turn too well on screen as it did on paper. I still have no clue on how the new website will look, but in the meantime, I want to get things moving again. I will start posting new data using no layout at all for now, hope you won’t mind a bare site for the time being. I just recovered a rather old layout style, I think it’s ok for now.

A Nuclear Death website has been launched (still heavily under construction but the idea is there) in preview for the first Nuclear Abominations rex release: the Nuclear Death demos collection. Nuclear Death Official Website

So it is true, Nuclear Abominations is back in shape. Several things have to be said for the new embodyment of my goreophile and deathophile dementia. To start Nuclear Abominations again was a matter of good sense and time-optimization. I started to write some reviews for the store’s website a few weeks ago, when I realized two things: first I had too much to do on the website to spend time reviewing stuff. Second, how could I manage to put reviews on both Buio Omega’s and Nuclear Abomination’s websites? What criteria I had to adopt to decide which review should go where? In the end the solutioncame out of the blue: merging both websites into one AND keeping them separate at the same time. You can reach most of the reviews herein by browsing the Buio Omega catalog, so that the shop’s website remains clear and light to navigate, and yet you can decide to buy some of the cds or other items reviewed here, when available,. by simply clicking at the end of the description. This solution has the big advantage of allowing me to keep a single database behind all this mess of informations.

Like every other human, I am prone to errors (maybe even more than other humans) so even while online the website will get continuous maintenance and improvements, it will take months before the website will be definitive, yet I am sure once the thing starts to get some shape, it will be far easier for me and my colleagues to work on it.

You’ll notice two things that could be translated from Buio Omega to this website haven’t been, Guestbook and Forum. Moreover the Links page is different as well. The reason for this is that Nuclear Abominations is a totally personal and independent thing from Buio Omega. The links contained here are links of my personal interest, just as I don’t want any comments or external influence on these pages. Reviews are absolutely personal as well as articles, biographies, retrospectives and articles are. Buio Omega is a store, and a commercial window to the world of extreme entertainment, and an entity per se. I hope this will be clear as much as it is now in my head as time goes on.

One more thing that will probably annoy Italians that used to read the 2/3 reviews that landed on Buio Omega: this site will be in English only. I am sorry but 20 hours are not enough for me to do everything I’d like to. If I find some official translator that could do the work for me maybe in the future, but right now I’d rather stick to the broadest public.

Thanks for being here reading this shit, the gore lives on!
