Zinecontribution

It's been a while since Jojo from Resurrectionists asked me to write a statement about the Cry Me A River Fest and what especially connects us as a band to this kind festival. Actually these words should have been printed in a zine right before this years fest but the zine is still delayed. After weeks of waiting i decided to post the article on our blog, so here it is:

"What comes to my mind when I’m thinking about the CMAR? A bunch of memories I would never forget or sell for anything. It was in the year 2006 when we’ve been there for the first time with our former band and our friends in Amalthea. None of us knew what to expect and we were pretty stoked about the whole atmosphere and felt fine from the first moment.    

For the first time we were able to see bands such as June Paik, Cease Upon The Capitol or Am I Dead Yet. I guess that one of the most notable memories is when Raein played “tiger suit” as part of their supposed last show at the fest. The band was surrounded by the audience. The sweat dropped down from the ceiling, the air was more than wasted and everybody screamed along the song. This memory gets me goose-bumps while I’m writing this. It was a perfect ending for the fest and we all drove completely happy home knowing that the last two days were something very special. We’ll never forget the moment we invaded with felt 1000 people the house of family Ulbrich and played human Tetris to get everyone a place to sleep. Holy shit, but it all worked out very well. 

In the following years we visited the CMAR over and over again and it became more and more something like a family reunion. You know that you’re able to see friends you haven’t seen in a while, you know you gonna be able to see lots of great bands and you know you’ll have one of the best breakfasts of the year.  

The fact that the fest still has an assessable frame by size, prices and time is a pretty thing that could be seen as a tradition. We never felt so happy to play among so many people and we never wanna miss one single moment we were able to collect in all those years.

What stays is to mention that year by year a couple of people invest time, passion, sweat and I guess a lot of nerves to make it happen over and over again. This year will be the 13^th CMAR what shows that there is an interest for music based on diy-ethics, it shows that music still can be independent and have its place beside the mainstream and it shows that nothing must be a big thing to get “successful” or to build something like a tradition. Communication, passion and friendship still are the keys to get things done.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you Family Ulbrich and every helping hand for proving this year by year. We are more than grateful." 

Jens and Black Everest

 

What Is Going On At The Black Everest Camp

At the moment we are focused on writing new material for the upcoming album. Two songs left to write. After this we'll connect all single songs and maybe work with a couple of guestmusicians. The split 7" with Reka is still in progress. To celebrate the release we started talking about a small russiatrip in autumn/winter 2013 to play moscow and st. petersburg. Beside this trip there will be a couple of single shows in germany and maybe another weekendtrip. We'll let you know the details as soon as we have concrete informations.

Thank You CMAR !!!

This years CMAR is over and we had an amzing time. Couldn't say it enough, thank you Sabine,Lars and everybody involved making the fest happen over and over again. Felt like playing in our livingroom in front of all our friends, thank you!

By the way, if you haven't go and check out "The Homeless Is Dead" right here:

Splitrelease with Reka

We are happy to announce that our next release will be a split seveninch with our russian friends in Reka from Moscow. The singleseries on Moment Of Collapse Records got cancelled, so the split will appear as a discrete release. To make this one a special, each band reinterpretates a song of the other band and wrapes it in a new garb. We choose Reka's "flooded lazaretto" which was released back on their second album years ago. Reka picked our song "Neid hat immer eine Lobby" from our latest split LP with "Captain, Your Ship Is Sinking".
We nearly finished the recordings and hope to get this release out during the late summer. Details like a concrete releasedate, label(s), artwork, preorder etc. will follow soon.

enjoy the sun, listen to diy music and keep yourself alive!

see you,
BE.

Black Everest is a four-piece again

We are more than happy to announce that we found in Arne a new bandmember. He is taking care for the second guitar. First rehearsals are done and we'll play our first show together at the CMAR. Since Andi left the band, who lately once again said that he'll won't return, we missed the presence of another guitar so we had to act.

See you at the CMAR!

Review at the OX-Zine

We got a nice review at the latest Ox-Zine. Thanks Matin!

CMAR 2013

Yep, Lars and Sabine were so kind to invite us to this years Cry Me A River Fest on the 28th and 29th of June. We'll play on Saturday. This will be our only Festivalapereance for this summer. Hope to see you there!

Up The Everest

The Fiducia Fest is over and we played our first set as a three-piece, which turned out that we still have to develope and reorganize a couple of things. All in all we had a great time and are thankfull that we've been invited and able to share the time with so many old and new friends. Once again thanks to all the other bands, Jos and everybody involved who made the festival happen. Hopefully there will be another part of the fest in 2K14.

As some of you maybe noticed we carried the split LP with "Captain, Your Ship Is Sinking" to our table. So we are happy to finally say that the record is released. There are 300 copies made. One half on classic black vinyl and the other half on blue vinyl. The artwork was done by Mara Piccione and printed on gatefold jackets. We are more than satisfied with how the record turns out and hope you enjoy it as much as we do. At this point we would like to thank Moment Of Collapse Records (Europe), 50 Year Storm (US), IFB Records (US) and Win Thein (UK) for releasing those songs, thank you so much guys!

We still have a couple of them available from the band. For the case you want one drop us a line to blackeverest(at)web.de

The release already got a proper review right here (sorry, only german language):
http://borderlinefuckup.com/2013/03/23/black-everestcaptain-your-ship-is-sinking-split-12inch-moment-of-collapse/

Beside a couple of rehearsals we recorded our song for the split 7inch with our beloved friends in Reka. The song is a reinterpretation of their "flooded lazaretto". Reka will do the same with our song "neid hat immer eine lobby". The record will be released as part of the Moment Of Collapse Single Series. Details on that series will be announced soon.

have a good one,
BE

First Show in 2013

hope to see you there!

2013 // A New Endeavor

Hope all of you had a nice holidayseason and survived all social obligations. 2012 was a very rough year for Black Everest and we hope to be way more active in 2013. We had our first rehearsal as a three-piece and it turned out satisfying, which means that our jorney still isn't over. We wrote a new song which will be the first one for the album we will hopefully release during this year. For sure our sound changed, but as always we'll not try to give ourselves a dumb drawer to be classed in. Beside a fulllengh we are working on a splitrelease with REKA and a couple of weekendtours as well as a small tour during the easterholidays. Details will be anounced during the following weeks.

One of our labels "Moment Of Collapse Records" opened a new mailorder which can be found here:

Our split LP with CYSIS is still delayed and the pressingplant informed us that it will be done in february 2013.  This release seems to be the most delayed you've ever heard of. We are sorry.
Borderline Fuckup shared this release and respected it for their summary of the year 2012. Details can be found here:
