Norwegian viking pagan black metal brigade NIFROST is set to release their new, long-awaited, full length album to the masses
NIFROST already established its own remarkable identity built upon cold and ferocious sounds attack, intense melodies and charging guitars.
Combining unrelenting black metal atmosphere and vision from varying extreme metal genres with a apocalyptic twist of inspiration, careful listeners may just be able to identify themes from some of their stories, concepts and more…
The concept of their third album began with the title “Orkja”, which is the name of a mountain infamous for landslides that turned into murderous floods in the olden days of Jølster, on the wild and beautiful western coast of Norway.
Through these old stories, they found a spark of inspiration in approaching apocalyptic themes in a bigger or on smaller more personal-level picture, both physically and metaphorically.
When the band wrote the album “Orkja” in late 2018, they never knew how fitting these doomsday-themes would come to be in current times. The seven songs that comprise “Orkja”, each have its own connection to the end of things, and to the possibility of new beginnings.
Fourth album by Norwegian stalwarts Nifrost. Epic and melodic black metal in the vein of Windir, Borknagar and Enslaved. With "Briseld" Nifrost are back with a powerful, clean and epic sound reminiscent of the best epic moments of second wave black metal.

Writhing woe upon a rotting mass of murderous rats comes forth Ecuador’s Wampyric Rites with its latest unholy resurrection of melodic black metal malfeasance, Under the Tragic Fullmoon of the Vampire, a full throttle incantation featuring some of the greatest spells of audial sanguine slaughter to date. Writ mostly in the home tongue of Wampyric Rites, Under the Tragic Fullmoon of the Vampire, presents a truly matured and eldritch exercise of black metal mutiilation; one slaked in infested tremolo melodies, howling oratory necromancy, dark gothic poetics and the same epic alchemical composition this entity is now infamous for. Wrought from spirals of diseased rat tails entwined, Under the Tragic Fullmoon of the Vampire, only proves the unwavering mastery of sonic hypnosis Wampyric Rites have staked their bloodstained moniker upon time and time again. A must have for any acolyte craving the melancholic bloodlust of the perditious.
