Collaborative Ep by Tårfödd and Mörkvind.

The warrior suffers the loss of his beloved; a deep pain pierces him, and the wind of fate sweeps away all traces of happiness, carrying away even his clarity of mind.

Soon he descends into madness: the trolls of the forest whisper to him, and lost in his frenzy, he succumbs to a murderous rage.

The gods remain silent. Alone, in the frozen North and battered by a snowstorm, he finally hears the voice of Odin — tragic and relentless.

He bends to the snow, closes his eyes forever, finding in that silence both the god and death itself.

An album where i got the honor to work (on track 1, 2, 3, 5 & 6) with Revenant Noctis (Ger) from Sarkrista, Order of Nosferat, Velmorth and Siechknecht

In late 2024, AINZAMKAIT delivered their bolt-from-the-blue debut album, Was des Lebens nicht wert. The work of one Grymnir der Zornige, AINZAMKAIT's moniker is a linguistic twist on the German "Einsamkeit," which is loneliness in English - and fittingly, that's exactly what he delivered, offering a righteous new twist on Teutonic black metal.

Proving that was no fluke, AINZAMKAIT return under the banner of PURITY THROUGH FIRE with Fluch des Nachzehrers. Sonically, on first blush, this second album is built upon the same foundation as the debut: riffs that are hypnotically melancholic yet also strangely triumphant, a slow-burning approach to pacing, and Grymnir der Zornige's full-throated rasp elevating everything safely beyond DSBM dross. However, where that first album conveyed a certain hooliganism latent to the best German black metal, here do AINZAMKAIT soar on cosmic wings high into the night, raised up on synths that are even more ethereal than that no-less-considerable debut; indeed, one need only translate this album's title as well as ponder the cover art to perceive their nocturnal trajectory. Strangely enough, the eight tracks comprising Fluch des Nachzehrers are more compact this time around but somehow sound even more expansive: the destination might be the same, but the route to get there has been altered slightly - and compellingly, vampirically so. With new drummer Geyst des Wüterichs likewise providing livelier color, AINZAMKAIT continue their noble march...the curse awakens!

A project of Ungod (SAD / NECROHELL/ BLOODMOON ECLIPSE) and Throne (HOR)
in the vein of BERGRIZEN, AASKEREIA

Formed in 2011 in Bergen, A.H.P. are something of a "dark horse" within Norwegian black metal: their sound isn't Norwegian Black Metal Exclusively, and band founder / songwriter Gulnar originally hails from Poland. However, being something an outlier has made A.H.P. all the more unique. From palatably varied songwriting to a more mechanistic soundwall, from tastefully unexpected cover-song choices to even-more-varied lineups, A.H.P. follow their own path, forged in fire, ice, and iron will.

Now, a full decade since their Against Human Plague debut album, A.H.P. return to reassert those unique virtues with Alltid Imot Deg. Comprising five songs in 41 minutes, A.H.P.'s second album is indeed more epic-minded than the first, each song creating a shapeshifting vortex where four separate vocalists narrate foul deeds and filthy states of the soul; among those guests are Darkened Nocturn Slaughtercult's Onielar. Gulnar rises to the occasion with songwriting that's by turns stealthy, hypnotic, schizophrenic, and thuggish - but always, ALWAYS, is there an ever-building fountain of cold & crunching violence. That A.H.P.'s soundwall retains their elder Moonfoggy-mechanistic feel whilst emitting a sort of delirious humanity only makes Alltid Imot Deg all the more compelling - and, always again, all the more unique. Still, the best is saved for last with the 15-minute title track, which is an awe-inspiring maw of impossibly alluring darkness; you will DROWN in this.

After a whole decade of silence, Downfall Of Nur is back with a new album. The studio project born from Italian-born Antonio Sanna is finally ready to give a proper follow up to the acclaimed debut Umbras de Barbagia (2015). And the Firmament will Burn to Quench the Pain of this Earth unfolds as a profound reflection on the ancestral memory and deeply rooted symbols of Sardinia.
At its core lies the dual figure of the feminine: the Mother Goddess, an ancient archetype associated with fertility, the earth, and permanence, represented in the prehistoric iconography of Sardinia, and human mothers, silent protagonists who carry the restrained sorrow of mourning their children lost to ancestral conflicts, such as the disamistade, a ritualized enmity deeply embedded in Sardinian cultural memory.
The album’s central narrative revolves around the transition of an individual caught in these ancient cycles of hostility. Upon shedding his physical form, his spirit merges with the archetype of the Mother Goddess, an ancestral presence embodying the exhaustion provoked by the endless repetition of violence and death. This union marks a threshold: an essential act of purification that confronts oblivion and halts the ceaseless recurrence of suffering.
Though not explicitly named, the mothers form the ethical and emotional foundation of the work. Their grief transcends the individual and extends into the collective, shaping the social memory and the ontological relationship between human beings and the land they inhabit. The Mother Goddess and the mothers symbolically intertwine, revealing the rupture between humanity and the earth that sustains it. The album posits a breaking point: the weariness of the Mother Goddess in the face of perpetual cycles of vengeance, death, and forgetting. This rupture is not presented as punitive, but as an inevitable act of purification, fire consuming what has been denied by collective memory.
And the Firmament Will Burn to Quench the Pain of This Earth calls for attentive and contemplative listening. It is not a linear or conclusive narrative, but a fragmented ritual space that opens the way to multiple layers of interpretation, where history, mythology, and human mourning converge. Ultimately, the album stands as an act of living memory—a tribute to Sardinia as a sacred, wounded land, bearer of silenced histories—and an invitation to recognize, through listening, the profound sorrow that resides in the broken bond between man, woman, earth, and the divine.

Barren Canyon, the reclusive Canadian act formed by the mysterious duo of multi-instrumentalists Maikan and Absent, re-emerge with A Virulent Steam, their second release for Avantgarde Music after eight years of silence. Whereas 2018’s World of Wounds contrasted bursts of metal with cold ambient passages, Barren Canyon now return transformed, melding their influences into a tempered miasmic haze. Warmer synth tones drift and swell like a toxic fog, diffusing into harsher textures.

Taking the idea of “atmospheric metal” seriously and literally, A Virulent Stream draws both musically and lyrically upon themes of noxious air, suffocation, and the airborne contaminants of industrial society. The very cover picture is a statement in itself, as the band chose “Smoke from the continuously operating steel plants gives Birmingham its
spectacular nighttime red-orange glow” by Leroy Woodson to visually introduce their opus.

Hieron's debut album „From the Temple to the Grave“ offers a lamentation leading into a vortex of doubt, hopelessness, and madness - through fog, past old forgotten graves, through cold stone walls and vaults, toward a purifying fire and vast nothingness, where salvation never comes. A Tale told in six Acts of relentless melodic black metal.

CIRCULAR RUIN is the ever-recurring end of everything once great, the endless cycle of temporary prosperity followed by death and devastation, and the inevitable demise of humanity by its own hand.

Hybris Divina, the debut full-length from Oraculum, is a merciless assault and a sonic damnation. The title, signifying "Divine Transgression," guides the album's thematic descent into mythical and spiritual blasphemy. This record is a raw and chaotic maelstrom, delivering bludgeoning riffs, dissonant textures, and unholy invocations that return to the genre's forgotten primordial essence. It is a testament to the enduring, chaotic legacy of Chilean death metal—a calculated and feral vortex of sound. Hybris Divina is set to establish Oraculum as the modern standard-bearer for the most uncompromising, first-wave death metal sound.

Back from the depths of Okinawan graves, dead souls chant occult folklore tales from the ancient Ryukyu realms.
Seiden is the only Black Metal band existent in Okinawa (JP), strongly sourced by original and edgy black metal (from Mayhem to Portal), with powerful drums, 8 sting guitars and evilish undertone vocals the sonic experience of Seiden is similar to deep diving into an ocean of ghosts and shadows.
Seiden is playing live with traditional Okinawa Taiko and Shamisen　which crafts a unique atmosphere unique to the undergrounds of Okinawa.

A collection of ugly and beautiful tales played by anguished spooks.
Finally the heretic Japanese black metal YVONXHE had completed their second album. With the appearance of a solemn relic, a flood of beautiful melodies that control a sense of loneliness are constructed by layering chords as vivid as fresh blood, creating a new frontier of black metal! What will you witness? Be invited to the dark valley where Spooks dwell...

This album, written between 2022 and 2024, is thematically a continuation of the previous album (Genetic Grief). It explores the past through the lens of our ancestors and is a link to the present. One of the bridges linking the past and the present is nature. Nature, which has witnessed everything, has seen everything and brings the knowledge and stories of our ancestors to us. In this album, the focus is on the ancient Georgian tree cult, which existed in Georgia before our era. Our ancestors believed that the souls of dead people moved into the tree branches and leaves. To me, this is the most beautiful formulation of the state after death among all the versions presented by religions. The nature of Georgia holds many secrets; my goal and desire is to delve as deeply as possible into these stories and to feel them as intensely as possible.

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.

Second album by Yorkshire’s White Medal. “Lyke Wake” features 9 new tracks recorded in 2015. The new songs follow on from “Guthmers Hahl” (2013) in terms of song writing and over all feeling but with a more refined sound. All lyrics in Yorkshire dialect with very personal themes of graft, death, grief, loss and paganism.

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."

It's unbelievable how a band like Outrage from Germany hadn't been given the credit they truly deserve. Formed in 1983, together with SLAUGHTER they have been among the very first bands showing such a strong HELLHAMMER/CELTIC FROST influence combined with a raw thrash/black attack in the vein of early SODOM. This CD features their two 1985 demos in their entirety. They have broken up in 1987 after two more demos and have remained buried by time and dust till their reformation in 2004. Along with POISON this is a teutonic gem that must be present in your collection.

“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….

Mega Classic funeral doom metal album.

2026 reissue !!! 

CORONER came up with an even more daring, unconventional album in 1993's ‘Grin', which abandoned much of the thrash-based aggression of their early days and focused on challenging dynamics and eerie atmospherics. This move proved too radical even for longtime fans, ironically, and they remain split over the album's merits, some seeing it as a total sellout, while many others consider it the band's greatest triumph.

With their fourth studio album "Hulders Ritual" ('Ritual of the Huldra'), SLAGMAUR break the chains of repetition and nostalgia by rewriting the rules of black metal. This does not mean abandoning the foundations of the genre, which is already indicated by working with the 'inventor' of the 'Norwegian black metal sound', THORNS mastermind Snorre W. Ruch, as an additional producer. The band's founder, General Gribbsphiiser, rather unafraid and with reckless abandon mutates and warps the traditional formula through a host of subtle innovations and tweaks of the classic sound. Although "Hulders Ritual" continues, refines, and widens the daring stylistic balance of SLAGMAUR's previous works, it adds an extra dimension of sardonic mania to its collection of sharp and vicious sonic instruments. Choice guest-contributions that include TAAKE vocalist Hoest, DIMMU BORGIR guitarist Silenoz, and MISÞYRMING frontman D.G., who cover three decades of Nordic black metal make a case in point.

Atmospheric black metal union GRIMA return with a dark ritual of ancient forest magic!

With 10 years of scene-stealing experience behind them, looming stars of Siberian atmospheric black metal, GRIMA, will release their sixth album and Napalm Records debut, Nightside, on February 28, 2025. After several shows accross Europe (one with highly-uprising german death metal force Kanonenfieber), the band is set to honor the spirit of the Siberian Forest, Taiga, with their impending next chapter.
While fans of their deep, melancholic sound can look forward to tales like in “Flight Of The Silver Storm” and “The Nightside”, GRIMA also showcases focused effort and skill on the album’s more brief, accessible offerings. “Beyond The Dark Horizon“ and “Curse Of The Void” are as dreamy and complex as their big brothers, but also satisfy as more direct black metal anthems. The band shows a wide range of variety: First single “Skull Gatherers” is infused with the mesmerizing cold of the Siberian evening wilderness, constructed with folk instruments like the Russian accordion bayan but GRIMA also use death metal-like growls into their delivery on “Impending Death Premonition”.
Mixing, mastering, and helming the album’s clear, powerful sound is black metal-experienced producer Vladimir Lehtinen. The two driving forces behind the band’s unique sound, Vilhelm and Morbius, both deliver different aspects of the band’s impactful, massive guitar riffs, leads and melodies, while Vilhelm also soars as vocalist. Guest musicians Vlad (drums) and Serpentum (guitars) also join the fold both in studio and on stage. In addition to their unforgettable sound, the band’s eerie, piercing look – towering like living trees with intimidating carved wooden masks and branched fingers – adds another haunting element to their brutal yet beautiful output. With their mysterious visual aura and intriguing sound, on Nightside, GRIMA continues to prove themselves as an unmissable band to watch within the genre.

Ukrainian blackened death/doom metal formation 1914 return with unrelenting force on their fourth studio album, Viribus Unitis, Latin for "With United Forces." Far more than a historical reference to the personal motto of Franz Joseph I of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the title reflects the band’s resilience through war, loss, and upheaval – a powerful symbol of survival and solidarity. Releasing on November 14, 2025 via Napalm Records, Viribus Unitis builds on the band’s acclaimed conceptual approach, pushing even deeper into emotional and musical intensity.

Continuing their chronicle of World War I, 1914 shift their focus slightly, from the raw portrayal of death and destruction to themes of camaraderie, endurance, and the emotional landscapes of those who endured the horrors. While previous releases like The Blind Leading the Blind (2018) and Where Fear and Weapons Meet (2021) centered on the futility and finality of war, Viribus Unitis explores the human bonds forged under fire and the strength of those who returned: broken, changed, yet still alive.

Musically, 1914 remain true to their identity – brutal mixture of blackened death metal, slow-burning doom, and ambient war soundscapes. This time, however, their sound gains a broader dynamic range, with soaring melodic leads, orchestral textures, and haunting clean vocals that provide dramatic contrast to the crushing heaviness. One of the album’s highlights is a collaboration with Aaron Stainthorpe of My Dying Bride and High Parasite on “1918 Pt. 3: ADE (A Duty to Escape),” whose mournful voice adds a solemn, almost liturgical quality to this elegy of grief and brotherhood on the front lines.

Viribus Unitis deepens 1914’s commitment to historical authenticity, both lyrically and conceptually. Told through real events and personal accounts of a Ukrainian soldier in the K.u.K. army, the album traces a timeline from 1914 to 1919, painting a grim journey through the war’s rise, climax, and hollow aftermath.

From the brooding opener “War In” to the bleak closer “War Out (The End?)”, each track captures a moment in time: the brutal “1914 (The Siege of Przemysl)”, the frostbitten “1915 (Zwinin Ridge)”, the crushing Alpine combat of “1916 (Südtirol Offensive)”, and the madness of “1918 Pt. 2: POW (Prisoner of War)” featuring Christopher Scott of Precious Death.

The album ends with “1919 (The Home Where I Died),” featuring Rome’s Jerome Reuter, a haunting portrait of a soldier who survived the war, but not its shadow. This emotional song deals with the soldier's will to live and his family values, seeing him escape from captivity to finally return home to embrace his wife and daughter. 1914 fuse blackened death metal, doom, and atmospheric textures with dramatic flourishes and guest vocals, creating their most dynamic and emotionally resonant record to date.

Cult full-length from 2000 finally available again on DLP.

Very well made fan-club edition, gatefold, UV spot and poster.
