Regular "To Burn is to Shine" T-shirt: per favore indicare la taglia nelle note dell'ordine

LIMITED TO 50 UNITS

Gatefold sleeve with gold pantone overprint and A2 poster, special TSHIRT (please write your size in the order notes!!!), metal pin with enamel and Card handcrafted and signed by the band!

Eight years after the acclaimed Slow Motion Death Sequence, Norwegian experimental visionaries Manes return with To Burn Is To Shine, their sixth full-length album and the beginning of a new chapter in a career defined by fearless artistic evolution. Since their inception in Trondheim in 1992, Manes have consistently refused to remain confined within stylistic boundaries. Emerging from the early Norwegian black metal underground with the cult debut Under Ein Blodraud Maane, the band soon embarked on a remarkable transformation that culminated in the landmark Vilosophe, an album that would become one of the defining statements of avant-garde metal. Throughout the following decades, Manes have continued to blur the lines between metal, dark electronica, alternative rock, trip-hop and experimental music, developing a sound that remains unmistakably their own.

To Burn Is To Shine also features contributions from several distinguished guests, including Ana Carolina Skaret (Mourning Sun), Eskil Blix (Djevel, Vemod), Marita Hellem (Enevelde), Rune Folgerø (Atrox, Drontheim) and Tom Christian Engelsøy (Drontheim), while Vegar Larsen (Whoredom Rife) performs drums on two tracks. The striking visual identity of the album has been created by New York-based designer Michael Houtz, whose handcrafted artwork extends across the physical editions and accompanying merchandise.

Progressive death metal outfit Rhynn are set to release their debut full-length King of Nothing via Unorthodox Emanations, the death metal division of Avantgarde Music.
Founded by multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Abakar Ibragimov, Rhynn emerged in 2019, initially inspired by the worlds of science fiction and fantasy. Born in Dagestan in 1990, Ibragimov grew up against the backdrop of the Chechen wars, finding refuge in music and literature from an early age. While those original inspirations remain part of Rhynn's identity, King of Nothing is ultimately rooted in much more immediate and personal experiences.
Written over several years, the album reflects on displacement, uncertainty, social decay, disillusionment and fatherhood. Songs such as "The Graves Are Not Yet Full", "Nostos", "Oblivion" and "Apotheosis" draw from different aspects of Ibragimov's experience in the years surrounding his departure from his native country Russia, while "Innocence" offers a more intimate perspective, written about the birth of his son in Armenia in 2023.
Musically, Rhynn look primarily towards the foundations of death and heavy metal rather than contemporary metal production. Progressive structures and intricate arrangements are combined with a deliberately organic approach: the band sought to make King of Nothing sound as live as possible, avoiding excessive production and preserving the physical character of the performances. The guitar solos were mixed with classic King Diamond records as a reference, while fretless bass by Linus Klausenitzer became an unexpected but defining element of the album.

Rooted in a sombre, tragic and epic expression of Doom-infused Melodic Black Metal, “Cursed Songs from the Garden of Twilight” carries a style hard to link to other specific bands. THE SCARS IN PNEUMA (brought forth by Lorenzo Marchello, ex-Kolony Records) blends stunning melodies and dramatic atmospheres, interweaving them within structures balanced between slow/fast-paced rhythms and haunting interludes, resulting in a continous unfolding of compositional details. Cavernous growling vocals float above the instrumental flow, enhancing the stream of emotions in intensity.

Rooted in atmospheric black metal and post-depressive black metal, “A Caress of Autumn for All the Lost” refuses to remain confined within genre boundaries. Balzarini continuously shifts between textures and dynamics, allowing songs to unfold through subtle transformations rather than predictable contrasts. Instead of relying on the conventional loud-quiet formula, each composition develops organically, revealing unexpected turns while maintaining a remarkable sense of cohesion. Throughout the album, delicate melodic brushstrokes occasionally recall the melancholic elegance of fellow Italian visionaries Novembre, enriching an already expansive emotional palette.

The result is a work enveloped in an autumnal melancholy that permeates every note. Its atmosphere is fragile yet piercing, intimate yet expansive, balancing moments of despair with glimpses of fragile beauty. Every transition feels purposeful, every melody carefully placed, allowing the album to flow naturally from beginning to end without sacrificing intensity or emotional depth.

5th album by Swedish SORCERY, formed in 1986 in Sandviken and true pioneers of the Swedish Death Metal scene. "The Immaculate Sin" arrives as the band celebrates its 40th anniversary, proving that their distinctive dark, aggressive sound, deeply rooted in the first generation of Swedish Death Metal, remains fully intact. The current lineup features founding members Ola Malmström on vocals and Paul Johansson on guitar alongside Johan Vikholm on guitar, Mikael Carlsson on bass and Tommy Holmer on drums. The album delivers ten compositions and around 46 minutes of direct, crushing and sinister Death Metal, with a powerful production that retains the band's organic character.

 2026 ninth album from Finnish DESECRESY, the one-man project of Tommi Grönqvist, continuing to develop his distinctive vision of dark, heavy and cavernous Finnish Death Metal. Since taking over vocal duties after the first four albums, Grönqvist has handled all the music himself, consolidating a style built around dense, crushing riffs, predominantly mid-paced and slow tempos, abyssal vocals and an oppressive atmosphere that connects classic Death Metal with darker Death/ Doom territory. “The Secret of Death” retains this unmistakable identity while introducing a more prominent use of synthesizers and more varied rhythmic structures, adding an almost cosmic and hallucinatory dimension.

6th album from 2026 by Swedish MEGASCAVENGER, the long-running project led by the ever-prolific Rogga Johansson, one of the most respected and productive figures in European Death Metal. Staying true to his passion for filthy old-school Death Metal, "Toxic Noxious Undeath" delivers another crushing dose of rotten riffs, morbid atmospheres and sinister melodies rooted firmly in the classic Scandinavian tradition, while taking the concept a step further through an exceptionally ambitious guest lineup.

Debut album from 2026 by Bulgaria's NECROMONGER and a true celebration of the foulest and most primitive early 1990s Death Metal. Featuring musicians from projects such as FECAL BODY INCORPORATED and COCKLUSH, the band embraces a vision deeply rooted in the genre's origins, rejecting modern trends in favor of the darkest and most repulsive sounds of the extreme underground.

"This what I call imagination and talent employed to produce true art. I have chills from that song and it is followed up “Curse”, a hymn filled with almost nothing but black voices, gasps, growls, hissing, vomit-like emanations, ghost-like screams of anguish – this album is a journey I assure you. I am mentally exhausted. A brilliant release that takes many elements you have heard, many you have not and combines them in a unique way that makes this record an absolute must own."
 

New Mini-CD 7 tracks of blasphemy
 

These songs revolve around the transformation from man to The Übermensch (German for "Overman, Overhuman, Superman, Superhuman), through the purification of the fire and the metaphor of the warrior, mainly taking inspiration from parts of Vijnanabhairava as well as personal experiences of meditation.

Fire is the main element manifested by Shiva, seen as a purifying factor and dissolving, regenerating and annihilating.
In this case also seen as the awakening of a burning and dissolving energy, which brings chaos and destroys the boundaries of mortality to reach immortality.

Sebastian Montesi is a prolific artist, probably best known for his endeavors in Mitochondrion and for being one of the founding members of Auroch.
With Saturn’s Cross, the Canadian took a very different path, delving into cold wave territories, which little have to share with the bands he is usually associated to. Yet, when we listened to what Sebastian crafted, we had no doubt, and we gladly welcomed this new project to our roster. With neither hope nor fear, Saturn’s Cross unveils Cheat Death.  Now operating as a two piece, with 1908 entering the fold on bass and
vocals, Cheat Death disregards genre with wild abandon in favour of something that is at times overwhelmingly abrasive and at others intoxicating.
This is a willing exploration of the endless labyrinth and a lamp of pitch black glass intended to serve as a beacon in the lightless depths of the human spirit. This is a headlong dive into the soul's psychic darkness, with nothing to break the fall. This ushers in a new era Saturn's Cross.

“Show My Mercy” is an EP about the remorse that humans will feel, when they are stuck in the swirl
of karma made by themselves. Blinded by fury, greed, sorrow, heading for their destruction step by step.

The digipak comes as four-sided panel with booklet-sleeve and eight-sided booklet.

“Our goal – call to blight the life existance. Our weapon – weaknesses and vices of human scum.”
Virvel Av Morkerhatet, Ukraine: a hard atom that represents the defect of the human thought, that is multiplied by self-destruction of transcendental consciousness. Anticosmos through Black Magic.
We know you dreamt about a violent and ruthless edge of Ved Buens Ende, if we can figure this out in our minds.
This is a record that will not leave you indifferent and will nail your soul, a marvellous mix of avantgarde metal and evil fury where every second minute is unpredictable although not pushing too much over the reasonable boundaries of experimentation that every black metal band should safely keep….

Occult and Vampyric symphonic Black Metal Magick from the depths of Astral Chaos! Recorded in the Serpent's Chamber from 1996 - 1997 on a portable 4 track recorder, this cult underground second album, that did not originally see a release until 2005 is finally out again on CD. Officially approved by founding/remaining member of the band Scorpios, "Under the Serpentine Spell" is one of the most underrated albums of its era. Spellbinding atmosphere filled with synth-scapes and lyrics that lift the veil from the Abyss, revealing the Serpentine path! .... for Tiamat lays Dead, but Dreaming... and the Cult of the Crimson Moon remains eternal!

MARE COGNITUM is one of the leading forces in the progressive black metal field. The band's sole member, Jacob Buczarski has already proven his capabilities on his first two full-length releases - "The Sea Which Has Become Known" (2011) and "An Extraconscious Lucidity" (2012) - as well as on a revelatory conceptual split with Spectral Lore, "Sol" (2013). Since then, the American musician has refined his songwriting and production skills even more, and is ready to offer his third transcendental voyage through the cosmic regions of black metal.

Ascolta su BandCamp

After the underground success of “Phobos Monolith” MARE COGNITUM embark on a time travel through black holes and dead galaxies to bring their second full-length work, 2012’s “An Extraconscious Lucidity” back to a new life. Originally available only as digital and limited CD-r, the album has been fully remastered to enhance his cosmic black metal aura, and has been wrapped up in an intriguing art design that underlines its nature as a true alien artifact.
 

"Monuments Anciens" is a collection of exclusive tracks along with instrumental demo recordings from Sorcier Des Glaces. Some of them were recorded back in 2001 on an old tape-recorder, which later versions of these songs ended-up on the third Sorcier Des Glaces album "The Puressence of Primitive Forests".
It also features exclusive tracks that were intentionally recorded with raw production in 2010/2011.

"Monuments Anciens" offers some of the rawest and very primitive Sorcier Des Glaces material, always picturing the black, cold & evil world SDG is known for".

"Sorcier Des Glaces' second offering to the mortal world was recorded just two years after the very first album, in August 1999. Nevertheless, the maturity of their sound and composition is perceptible. It's no longer a one-man band this time, involving Luc more extensively, who this time records all the drum parts and also participates in the elaboration of several keyboard parts. The infernal duo is officially up and running.

With its icy atmosphere and dark yet melodic compositions reflecting the northern forests of Quebec, "Moonrise in Total Darkness" defines a young band still in exploration mode. Certainly more raw in its aestheticism than the band's more recent material, but with an authenticity that has forged their identity over the years".

This is the re-issue with a complete new layout from the ealier work of Slagmaur. Very crude, and primitive cold black metal release from the sea of Norway. Created to freeze your blood of poor human.
