Ewigkeit is the experimental extreme music project, formed in 1995 by James Fogarty (aka Mr. Fog). On 28 March 2007, Fogarty announced the end of the project on Blabbermouth, the Death To Music website and also on Myspace.〔(Deathtomusic.com )〕 ==Band history== The purpose of this one-man project was to try and forge a unique musical sound. After the release of the first album, ''Battle Furies'' on a short-lived Neat Records subsidiary called Eldethorn, Fogarty gave his entire music collection away to an Oxfam charity shop so that he would be free of influences creating his next work. ''Starscape'' was received well by the extreme music press, but label problems delayed the release of ''Land of Fog'', which was eventually released on Metal Age Productions. Fogarty himself regarded this as the first Ewigkeit album, and it gained him enough attention to get his project signed to Earache Records, on which ''Radio Ixtlan'' was released in 2004. Released in 2005, ''Conspiritus'' (mixed by John Fryer) was a conceptual album examining conspiracy theories. Also in 2005, a music video was made in collaboration with film-maker Anthony Gates for the track "Its Not Reality".〔(Youtube.com )〕 In 2006, Ewigkeit made a live video recording entitled ''Ewigkeit - Live From A Bunker'', which displayed the project in a live setting acting as a free "online" gig - the 25 minute set (filmed in a Nuclear Bunker in the vicinity of Brighton, England) was uploaded to Google video.〔(Video.google.co.uk )〕 Also recorded was a free download MP3 EP, ''Return to the Land of Fog''.〔(Earache.com )〕 In December 2006, Fogerty burned all his recording contracts.〔(Youtube.com )〕 All previous Ewigkeit material was then made available at www.deathtomusic.com. In January 2007, Death to Music Productions gave away a remastered and superior version of ''Battle Furies''. In March 2007, ''Starscape'' was available free, with the intention that all material will be fully released online. In March 2007, James abandoned the Ewigkeit project. Fogerty stated ".. (metal) is mostly out-of-date, out-of-touch with its origins and (worst of all) conservative in the extreme..." An online link to Fogerty's new project, The Bombs of Enduring Freedom, was created with the debut self-titled album released in December 2007, and an EP ''Kalashikovs and Car Bombs'', followed in 2008. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ewigkeit (band)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
