The relentless force known as Hammerfilosofi returns this October with their most uncompromising work to date — SIGNUM. A testament to sonic extremity, SIGNUM is more than an album — it’s a proclamation. A declaration of resistance, mysticism, and philosophical warfare delivered with unwavering intent.

"'Curling Serpents Under Stone' is meant to serve as a tribute to the 90’s Norwegian Black Metal scene and bands like early SATYRICON, VED BUENS ENDE, ISENGARD, DARKTHRONE, and EMPEROR," G.Rex explains. "It's my way of paying respects to those who influenced me the most and paved the way for this artistic form and way of life. To them I owe the privilege of standing in the higher seats of Hell’s amphitheater, side to side with bards and predictors of humanity’s downfall.”
Having released their self-titled debut album of progressive noise rock in 2022, French power trio CRATOPHANE returns to the scene with their brilliant blend of post-metal, heavy psych, noise rock and progressive, a sound that has previously earned them comparisons to the likes of SHELLAC, PELICAN, MAGMA, and CARBONIZED.
Their new album, "Exode" is once again an entirely instrumental work. Thanks to a multifaceted yet consistent style and a songwriting skill that has further refined in recent years, CRATOPHANE's music is a sonic journey full of surprises. "These are compositions that fall into the realm of a kind of instrumental, psychedelic, and cosmic prog metal," the band says, "in a spirit somewhere between BLIND IDIOT GOD and PELICAN, but played by fans of VOIVOD and ALUK TODOLO, with a mix of zeuhl-style melodies and many very dissonant, even noisy passages. In other words, a sort of RUSSIAN CIRCLES on LSD, trapped in an inhospitable parallel dimension."
"The Fire Cult Beyond Eternity" is the new album from ONIRIK (Portugal), a follow-up to 2015's "Casket Dream Veneration" and yet another proof of the talent of Gonius Rex, the band's sole member. ONIRIK has been active since 2002 and throughout the years has explored black metal in several approaches, always faithful to its original purpose: the emission of unordinary, dissonant and raw outputs with trance-inducing atmospheres, typically very cold and bathed in magic.
With the special guest participation of none other than Dirge Rep on drums (GEHENNA, ENSLAVED, ORCUSTUS, THE KONSORTIUM), and mixed & mastered by Semjaza of THY DARKENED SHADE, "The Fire Cult Beyond Eternity" is the consequence of the descent and return from below carrying the flames and lava on its scales, giving it back to the world in posthumous vengeance.
VERTEBRA ATLANTIS are born from the imagination of G.G., the artist behind COSMIC PUTREFACTION, one of 2020's most revered death metal bands. In this new metal adventure G.G. is supported by two fellow musicians: R.R. (HOMSELVAREG) on drums and vocals, and Vrangr (SPELLS OF MISERY) on bass.
VERTEBRA ATLANTIS' debut album, "Lustral Purge in Cerulean Bliss" brings to life a relentless blend of dissonant black metal, dark atmospheres and monolithic death metal. The band paints desolate landscapes to be admired in awe. The granite rhythm section, along with annihilating guitar riffs and psychedelic arpeggios, accompanies the hellish screams and cavernous growls of G.G. and R.R. depicting a complex portrait of revenge, anger and despair.
SMOHALLA's avant-garde black metal is overwhelming, rich in nuances, tempo shifts, and atmospherics. The arrangements are extremely layered; the structures, complex yet consistently coherent, serve a songwriting that masterfully interweaves epic dark melodies, nocturnal ambient/electronic interludes, and unstoppable explosions of metal violence, while Slo's vocal performance alternates between beastly screams and dreamy vocalizations.
The cosmic and hypnotic grandeur of "Ruina Draconis" is a religious experience that revives the great avant-black tradition of masters ARCTURUS and VED BUENS ENDE
Thirteen years later TEMPESTUOUS FALL are back to life with "The Descent of Mortals Past," which is not only the follow-up to "The Stars Would Not Awake You" but, more importantly, a reworking of the '90s death/doom style in light of the maturity and experience gained with MIDNIGHT ODYSSEY.
Today, as then, the music is grandiose and romantic, built on breathtaking melodies, shining like white cathedrals rising in the darkness of the night. Dis Pater alternates deep growls and his unmistakable, emotionally impactful clean vocals, intertwined with simple yet powerful doom riffs enhanced by the orchestral grandeur of the arrangements.
Throughout the four lengthy tracks of "Obstinacy: Sisyphean Dreams Unfolded," FLESHVESSEL seem possessed. A kaleidoscope of colors pours forth from the rich instrumentation employed, which includes, among others, acoustic and electric guitars, flute, clarinet, piano, synthesizer, viola, and a multitude of exotic instruments. The vocals are also impressive and over the top, alternating deep growls and heavy metal falsettos, tying together bone-crushing death metal grooves and airy melodic landscapes into complex prog-style harmonic structures.
German PRAG 83 delivers mellow, sublime and dark alternate folk – rugged to the bone and close to earth. Musically unique with elements that reminds of the Katatonia´s ”Discouraged ones” era but also not far away from the works by the northern woodsmen of Lönndom
Katla is an Icelandic band featuring ex-Sólstafir drummer and visual artist Guðmundur Óli Pálmason and singer/multi-instrumentalist Einar Thorberg Guðmundsson (Fortíð, Potentiam). Named in tribute to one of Iceland's greatest active volcanos, Katla creates powerful, panoramic music where shimmering guitars, crushing melodies and atmospheric density meet dark, entrancing power.
Katla's debut album, "Móðurástin", shines a spotlight on the band's hook-heavy, horizon-stretching sound. The lyrics tell tales of living in a country of contrasts; a land where fire and ice co-exist and dark winters are offset by the summer's midnight sun. Iceland: a country where insular existence has spurred a rich and vibrant culture.
"Móðurástin", Icelandic for (a) Mother's Love, might seem like a strange title for a metal album, but Katla dares to be different. What on Earth is stronger than a mother's love? Nothing. Not hate, not lust, not greed.
