Released in 1987 and destined to become one of the most controversial and iconic films in European underground cinema, Jörg Buttgereit's “Nekromantik” is far more than a visual provocation: it is a radical, poetic, and deeply disturbing work in which image and sound merge into a singular emotional experience.
The soundtrack by Daktari Lorenz / Hermann Kopp / John Boy Walton accompanies the film with a minimal and obsessive sonic landscape, suspended between piano melodies, decadent electronic ambient textures, and distorted childlike melodies. A deliberately alienating contrast that amplifies the film's sense of tragedy, loneliness, and morbid romanticism.
This release is not merely a tribute to a cult film, but a celebration of music as a narrative force, capable of transforming horror into melancholy and transgression into a distorted form of romanticism.

New hymns and ballads about the cursed creatures of the night and wandering through the worlds of a morbid mind. Furious monotonous passages shimmering with graveyard synthesizers and otherworldly vocals open the gates to the kingdom of darkness and here begins your last journey. An album inspired by the second wave of black metal, old horror movies, cemeteries and the indescribable nature of the North. All songs were written and recorded by Elias between 2022 and 2025.
Cult Scandinavian Folk Metal! Otyg’s demo recordings “I Trollskogens Drömmande Mörker” remastered from the original tapes!
“I Trollskogens Drömmande Mörker” is Otyg stepping further into their own world.
More bite, more movement, and more confidence than “Bergtagen”. The songs are tighter, the melodies sharper, and the playing more adventurous, without losing the natural Folk feel.
The violin and female vocals are woven into the music, not sitting on top of it. They add depth and character rather than decoration.
Remastered in 2025 by Vintersorg, this re-issue keeps the raw edge intact while giving the recordings the clarity they deserve.

Cult Scandinavian Folk Metal! Otyg’s demo recordings “Galdersång Till Bergfadern” remastered from the original tapes!
The third and final Otyg demo stands as the last hushed whisper before the band stepped into the light. Recorded in 1997 and never officially released at the time,
“Galdersång Till Bergfadern” laid the foundation for much of what would become “Älvefärd”, several tracks were later re-recorded for that full-length.
Here the melodies are ancient, the rhythms untamed, and the group already locked in on their own language of Scandinavian Folk and Metal. You can hear the roots of violin, flute and lute dancing with guitar and voice, all pushing forward into territory only Otyg could define.

Cult Scandinavian Folk Metal!
Otyg’s first demo recordings “Bergtagen” remastered from the original tapes!
Before folk Metal turned into a gimmick, Otyg were already there. "Bergtagen" captures the band at its purest. Earthy, melodic, and deeply Scandinavian. No posturing, no plastic bombast. Just strong riffs, breathing rhythms, violin, jaw harp, and Vintersorg sounding raw, urgent, and serious.
Though often called a demo, “Bergtagen” never felt like one. The songs are fully formed, memorable, and played with intent.
This is where Otyg’s spirit truly lives, long before it was softened or streamlined elsewhere.
Now remastered in 2025 by Vintersorg, the re issue finally does justice to this material.
For those who value atmosphere over hype and tradition over trends, “Bergtagen” remains essential listening.

Scandinavian Folk Metal classic remastered and finally available on vinyl for the first time!
“Sagovindars Boning” shows Otyg in a lighter, more playful mood. Folk first, metal second. Medieval tones, acoustic instruments, lute and violin textures, and songs driven by melody and storytelling rather than force. Vintersorg’s clean vocals take center stage here, warm and expressive, joined at times by gentle female harmonies.
There is a natural joy running through this album.
Nature bound lyrics, simple but memorable songs, and moments that drift closer to Folk Rock than Metal. Tracks like “Trollslottet”, “Mossfrun Kölnar”, and “Vilievandring” capture Otyg’s gift for atmosphere and charm, while flashes of humor and unexpected turns keep the record human and alive.
Remastered in 2025, this re issue brings new clarity to the acoustic details and vocals, letting the album breathe as intended.
“Sagovindars Boning” is a record for open ears, curious minds, and those who appreciate Folk Metal with personality and heart.

Otyg’s debut full length “Älvefärd” sits at the quiet edge of Metal, where Folk, atmosphere, and melody matter more than weight.
“Älvefärd” is built on restraint and feeling. Clean vocals, violin, mouth harp, sparse guitars, and songs that flow naturally rather than force themselves forward. “Älvefärd” is not an album about brutality or speed. It lives in mood, tradition, and sincerity. Vintersorg and Cia carry the music with strong, passionate vocal performances, grounded in a distinctly Scandinavian tone that feels honest and unpolished. Simple arrangements, but never empty. Every note serves the song.
Remastered in 2025, this re issue enhances the clarity without stripping away the warmth and calm that define the record.
The result is “Älvefärd” as it was always meant to sound. A cornerstone release for fans of Otyg, Vintersorg, and Folk Metal rooted in atmosphere rather than excess.

Five love songs for the time-ridden, mouldy Catholic cunts;
Praised be and exalted
With words and tunes
Those saints of old age,
Who their fate and devotion wage,
Only lubricated by Christ’s breath!
“Benediction, Part 2” cultivates the same derelict impulse first heard on Sodality’s 2020 debut, “Gothic”, and sharpened further on “…Part 1”. This is Black Metal stripped of pretence, carrying all the hallmarks of esoteric warfare and devotion pushed to its breaking point. Five hymns for ruinous faith echo through a cathedral of spiritual collapse, upheld by the smothered breath of saints, the weight of silence, and the violence of belief. Guided by bursts of inspiration rather than deliberation, the material retains the immediacy of its creation. The riffs and melodies are swampy, evil, and suffocating, just like the Catholic sense of morality and the divine.
Sodality’s place within the NoEvDia catalogue traces back to the late Finnish artist Timo Ketola, editor of Dauthus – arguably the ultimate printed incarnation of the quintessential Death and Black Metal spirit. Dauthus also existed as a small but fiercely curated label, and it was in this capacity that Sodality were brought to our attention.
Timo’s steadfast conviction – that Sodality’s early material was a ‘self-inflicted gun wound, possibly even partly unintentional’ – paved the way for his label’s first music title since 2009, when Dauthus, NoEvDia, and The Ajna Offensive co-released Teitanblood’s debut.
After he completed the LP layout for “Gothic” but before it took physical form, Timo passed away – yet his impetus defined the trajectory which led to the ongoing “Benediction” cycle. “…Part 2” follows that same line of transmission: stark, intuitive, and drawn from the same raw nerve Timo recognised at the beginning.

The Burning Circle and Then Dust is Lycia’s fourth studio recording, originally released on double CD via Projekt Records in 1995. Save for a small CD re-release in 2006 by Silber Records, the album has never been reissued since. It is hence with great pride that here at Avantgarde Music we officially announce a new edition of one of Lycia’s masterworks from the ‘90s, due out on 2CD as well as triple LP, making this the first Burning Circle vinyl release ever.
Mike VanPortfleet himself commented: “After several years of doing more synth oriented material I wanted a return to my guitar roots (in particular English post punk and 4AD). Lycia started as a guitar based band and I wanted to reaffirm that with disc one, which was originally going to be the release. I was also listening to a lot of shoegaze then, which inspired a return of making the guitars, as opposed to the synths, the focal point of the atmospherics.”.
Many things have been said about the album along the last twentyeight years, and the band chose the following to describe the record.
Per Projekt.com. - The Burning Circle And Then Dust was a groundbreaking point in Lycia’s career. It marked a shift from more atmospheric music towards song-oriented music with tracks like “Pray” & “Slip Away.” It marked the first collaborations between Mike VanPortfleet & Lycia members David Galas & Tara Vanflower. It marked the transformation of Lycia into a honed out live touring machine.
Per Pandamonium Magazine via Projekt.com. - Moving back into more formal song structures, Burning Circle returns to true song-writing, and places equal emphasis on guitar as the electronics. However, the music is as intense and powerful as ever, conjuring up vast vistas of soundscapes which are captured in delicate webs of song and structure. Songs like “Pray” are positively dance friendly, while others find Lycia moving towards the fertile ground of darkpop. breathtaking in scope and beauty, exultant in vision, exhilarating in sensory delight. Lycia have arrived.
Per Ned Raggett of AllMusic - a high point of American dark rock and the band's greatest and most ambitious work.

The Clearing Path is a very young and talented solo-artist recording project. 'Watershed...' was initially released only as digital, and benefits of a promotional campaign conducted by Earsplit PR, receiving a lot of web-media consensus.
It's bleak, noisy, extremely emotional, but listening to it is so easy that you won't realize you are giving it a 3rd spin in two hours without getting bored. It appeals to a wide range of extreme music fans, from black metal to Neurosis and Pelican

"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."

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.

"Eight years after 'Eonian', DIMMU BORGIR returns with 'Grand Serpent Rising', a thirteen-track album that is both relentless and remarkably diverse. The title itself symbolizes renewal: for the band, the serpent represents transformation, knowledge, and liberation—a necessary shedding after more than thirty years in the industry. From the introduction 'Tridentium' to the explosive 'Ascent', the band confirms that it has lost none of its intensity or aura. Over nearly an hour of music, the album showcases majestic power, blending the raw energy of 90s Norwegian black metal with the mastery gained over the decades. With 'Grand Serpent Rising', DIMMU BORGIR delivers an imposing and ambitious work, driven by an intact inspiration and a vision more grandiose than ever."
After the successful response of this album release, first press got sold out in a few weeks.
We are therefore opening preorders for the Second press, available as white vinyl or "evergreen" vinyl!

Due to circumstances beyond our reach, we are no longer able to press this release in the form it has existed so far – including the laser etching that was featured on the b-side of the vinyl. We decided to fully re-brand the release with Dávid Glomba with less cryptic optics yet more visceral and eschatologically visions to echo the terrifying call for repentance at the end of times.
In this re-press rather than the etching, the B-side vinyl will include an alternative version of “Purging Tongues”.
Vafurlogi is rooted both spiritually and literally in the early 2000s black metal movement, as the earliest songs were written nearly twenty years ago. Like the stalwarts of that era, Vafurlogi draws inspiration not only from the staunch traditionalism of the ‘90s but also from its rebellious spirit of discovery and creation.
Fronted by guitarist Þórir Garðarsson of Sinmara and Svartidauði, who now also takes on vocal and bass duties, Vafurlogi presents a new chapter for him as a songwriter. Throughout years of activity with his other bands, the essence of Vafurlogi slowly cultivated in parallel below the surface. Initially a vessel for accumulated works not suitable for Svartidauði or Sinmara, Vafurlogi developed into an avenue for him to freely explore different creative ideas and moods. While touching on the apocalyptic, nightmarish realms of Svartidauði and the haunting atmospherics of Sinmara, Vafurlogi places greater emphasis on triumphant and unabashedly melodic flourishes through a comparatively stripped-down compositional approach.
In Vafurlogi, Þórir has joined forces with drummer Ragnar Sverrisson, a seasoned veteran of the underground metal scene, having played in various bands both in Iceland and abroad, such as Helfró, Ophidian I, Abyssal, and Valkyrja. After the album recordings, the lineup was reinforced with Eysteinn Orri Sigurðsson of Nyrst and Úlfúð on guitars and Samúel Ásgeirsson of Volcanova on bass. “Í vökulli áþján” was produced at the esteemed Studio Emissary by Stephen Lockhart of Rebirth of Nefast between 2020 and 2024, presenting songs written mostly between 2018 and 2020.
Vafurlogi is Icelandic for ‘flickering flame’, but the name can also be literally translated as ‘wandering light’ – and therein lies the key to the project’s thematic essence. Vafurlogi explores man’s incessant and despairing search for meaning and the ever-elusive sacred light while condemned to roam spiritual wastelands.
Teitanblood returns to claim underground metal’s most lawless frontier. “From the Visceral Abyss” is an all-engulfing tide of unfettered, raging chaos – where black and death metal collapse into a maelstrom of destruction. Its force is neither random nor aimless but guided by an instinct sharpened over decades.
This is Teitanblood at their most unhinged, yet wholly assured in execution. Dissonance and precision collide in monstrous, writhing riffs, underpinned by percussive violence that shifts between merciless blasting and dirge-like weight. Layer upon layer of bile-drenched vocals coil through the cacophony, forging a suffocating atmosphere of grotesque grandeur.
As ever, the album is steeped in the restless spirit of the late Finnish artist Timo Ketola, who stood as both interpreter and architect of Teitanblood’s visual world. Ketola’s oracular visions provided the scripture from which these lyrics emerged – his legacy not merely preserved but carried forth beyond the grave. The tradition of transmuting sound into imagery continues, with Dávid Glomba filling the booklet’s pages with a dense tapestry of illustrations, sigils, and hand-scribed invocations.

With its tenth full-length album, Svartsyn delivers a work rooted in both its present vision and primordial past. “Vortex of the Destroyer” unfolds in two intertwined chapters: four new compositions alongside six resurrected relics from Chalice, the entity that would become Svartsyn in 1994.
The first half of “Vortex of the Destroyer” embodies a refined yet relentless approach, shaped by instinct and hindsight alike. From the ruin of Atlantis to the flames of Surtr and Fenrir, these songs channel Svartsyn’s pursuit of apocalyptic grandeur – a descent into the abyss.
The latter half harks back to the autumn of 1992, breathing new life into six compositions first forged under the Chalice banner. Conceived at the dawn of the second wave of Black Metal, these tracks honour the band’s origins. Re-recorded with present clarity, their essence remains untouched: wild, sinister, and unmistakably Ornias.
This MCD (mini-album) will be release by Hammer Of Damnation, in a limited edition of 500-copies,
of which 300 will be distributed in Latin America.
The remaining 200 copies will be distributed worldwide by Repulsive Echo.
Standard jewel case with clear tray and additional cardboard slipcase.
Includes 4-panel inlay booklet with artwork, lyrics, and credits.
This E.P. is dedicated in eternal memory of Baron Blood (Necromantia).
Trooper of the Black Arts (RIP).
CD was distributed as a bonus item available through the label's online mail order, when purchasing the vinyl LP, and later as an unannounced bonus to mail orders of other Southern Lord releases.
The artwork for the 1xCD is misprinted; it is the same as the 2xCD version, and so incorrectly lists the second disc included in the 2xCD version and featuring the extra track, "Helio)))sophist." The track is also (incorrectly) referred to in the liner notes below.
Limited to 2000 copies. This version include a second CD of live recordings.

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.
