Originally released only on CD in June 2022, "Visceral Void Entropy" got attention from the media and the public for its personal formula rooted in dissonant and dark death metal. Dusktone has decided to reissue this debut in VINYL on March 1st, 2024.

"Sonum acutely dissect the core values of death metal according to oblique readings and twisted looks, stretching its tentacles toward avenues of expression not rigidly associated with the genre, as much as a shifting and disturbing personal taste that spreads venomously through all the music" (Metalitalia.com)

"A lot happens in the 53-minute runtime, but unlike more dissonance-heavy acts, the earthy nature of Sonumߵs riffcraft and bark-forward verses keep me wholly engaged" (Angry Metal Guy)

A new video will be released on February 16th. Pre-orders will open the same day. New merchandise will be released in bundle with the vinyl version of the record.

Released on CD and tape in June 2023, "Abyss Of Existence" got attention in Europe and overseas for its brand of floridian old school death metal. Dusktone has decided to reissue this debut in VINYL on March 1st, 2024.

"Reaping Flesh hail from Milan, Italy, 2023 but could easily be from Tampa, United States, 1987. Citing Autopsy, Massacre and Death as their main influences, Reaping Flesh have dropped their first music in the form of debut EP Abyss of Existence. Clinging closely and intentionally to their influences, Abyss of Existence is a total rager" (Decibel Magazine)

"Reaping Flesh is everything you could want in a modern old school death metal band. They've got heaps of riffs piled atop stomach-churning vocals and varied drumming, an EP cover reminiscent of Morbid Angel, and a logo that's practically begging to be slapped on a four-sided longsleeve." (Metal Injection)

"The ability of Reaping Flesh is precisely that of being able to give freshness to rhythmic riffs embedded now in time, succeeding in that intent to drag the listener inside their very personal abyss. A first vague that leads us to place an eye on a new underground reality to be followed closely" (Metalitalia.com)

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.

Since their previous albums "Mass Grave" and "Death Siege" - both released via Season of Mist - Hierophant paved their way into the extreme metal scene in Europe, with a relentless and furious approach.

Following the conquest of the most prestigious stages (Hellfest, MetalDays,
Party.San), the Death Siege ranks pushed the limit to the extreme and ultimately crafted the first live album in the band's career.
Recorded at Hellfest 2023, "Gateway to the Abyss" (released via Dusktone) is the feral representation of what Hierophant is about: Hatred, blood, nihility.
FIRE WILL RISE!

FIRE WILL RISE!

Through 4 tracks mixing funeral doom with ambient and darkwave, Until Death Overtakes Me explores the idea of life being incomplete unless it passes death's threshold.
Antemortem (before death) is not a glorification of death, but focusses on the path to it. Life with its pains and terrors might long for the end, but could just as well explore the freedom that comes with accepting the inevitable.
The contrast between heavy distorted guitars and ethereal ambient melodies mirrors life, but offers an open ending - is life a pained struggle, where one is shoved forwards, closer to death all the time, forcing one to blindly squeeze as much meaning out of every moment, or is it rather a calm stream that gently carries one to the completion of a journey that's best experienced with eyes wide open, regardless of what may come after? More likely, both aspects remain at play : primal instincts balanced by intelligent rationality.

Antemortem is the first Until Death Overtakes Me album after a long hiatus, and forms a bridge between the periods before and after this break.
The track 'Before' dates back to late 2003, 'Days Without Hope' is based on a track that's even older by several years, and best marks the point in time where Until Death Overtakes Me went from darkwave/doom to ambient funeral doom. On the other hand there are the tracks 'The Wait' and 'Inevitability', both from 2016. 'The Wait' is more a experimental, almost mechanical sounding epic, while 'Inevitability' is an instrumental marking the acceptance of the concept of 'Antemortem', as well as its conclusion. 

Missing. What if the searchers falter, pass away? When none are left that hope to find even something to bury, to mourn.
To be missing, to be never found. To never return, and fade away in the shadows of time. To become forgotten beyond all hope of recovery.

Until Death Overtakes Me's 2018 album contains over one hour of mournful funeral doom mixed with orchestral ambient. Missing, named after the song from Until Death Overtakes Me's earlier years, continues the story of that old epic. In four tracks the concepts of loss and being lost are explored.

There's the tragedy on a personal level, of searchers that fail, grow old and find no closure. Of the one lost, stuck in nothingness, wanting to be found. But tragedy grows, touches all, and the music becomes the soundtrack to the funeral of mankind. Empty tones drifting over the desolation, echoing through empty canyons. All the searchers have gone, all those missing are forgotten. There's no one left to remember, there's no hope left.
And when the proof and all remembrance of our existence is gone too, then have we truly been here at all? We're already missing.

After one EP and a full-length record (and the orchestral versions of both, released in between), Italian occult extreme metallers OBSCURA QALMA are back with a new opus.

OBSCURA QALMA is going to unleash a sonic storm with their new EP 'Veils Of Transcendence', blending the relentlessness of death metal with the grandeur of an increasingly barbed orchestra. The band delves once again into the realms of esoteric mysticism, conveying Aleister Crowley's opera. Your OST to the end of the world.

If you are into acts such as Septic Flesh, Hypocrisy and Dimmu Borgir and you are fascinated by the impact of modern death metal and the power of orchestrations, you should really take a listen to “Veils Of Transcendence”.

Norwegian black metal band Enthral has shared members with Dimmu Borgir and The Flesh and their resumé includes four full-lengths.

Having been around since 1996, they've had some style changes -- from a more classical sound with cello and soprano vocals, they moved towards a style reminiscent of earlier Covenant and Satyricon.

Dusktone is now extremely excited to announce the reissue of their third album " Subterranean Movement" originally released in 2003 and out of print for more than 10 years now.

Dusktone is proudly presenting a new album of Canadian ritual doom act Ego Depths.
On his fifth full-length album, the mastermind Stigmatheist melts down into an amalgam his dissonant guitar marches, monstrous growls and throat singing chants; fuses ritual atmospheres with a slow paced doom metal, raging with rare black explosions. Following the conception of his previous releases, Stigmatheist continues to improve his sound, finding new spaces for expanding and transformation, filling the conquered emptiness with ultra black hole heaviness. Extensive use of various ritual instruments, including a signature dan moi (Vietnamese jaw harp) and newly included Aztec death whistle, Stigmatheist manages to create an even deeper atmosphere of an endless doom ritual, inducing a paralytic embracing of the listener with its almost 70 minutes plunge into the abyss. Highly recommended for fans of the genre, looking for a ritual trip to be immersed into!

Official reissue 2023

Here we talk about history!

Qliphothic Supremacy is the debut HANDFUL OF HATE full length album of and became a fundamental step for italian Black Metal metal movement in time.

Finally reissued in deluxe 6page digipack via Dusktone.

Released in 1997, it’is an extreme and crazy record, a furious black of unprecedented violence who blends sharp guitars with clumsy screams, which will later be the band's trademark and mold.

Overall, an exellent, personal and overlooked piece of Italian extreme metal history and a jewel to re-discover and appreciate in its burden of evilness
