Haimad was formed in Sundsvall, Sweden in 1994 and released two tapes and a MCD between 1995 and 1999 before they went on a long hiatus.
Many years went by without a sign of life before Azradan, the only remaining founding member, set out to resurrect the band and recruited a new line-up in order to create Symphonic Black Metal in the best tradition of the Scandinavian mid-90s.
And who else but musicians who were part of that same scene back then would be able to create something that reminds so powerfully of the good old days?
25 years after their founding, Haimad release an EP that is a dream come true for any fan of albums like "The Sad Realm of the Stars", "Seen Through the Veils of Darkness", "Provenance of Cruelty", "In the Nightside Eclipse", "Stormblåst", "In Times Before the Light", "Moon in the Scorpio" or "Tusen År Har Gått".
If one has grown up with these milestones, listening to Haimad's "The Return" is like coming home after a long time away because the material on this EP is absolutely on par with the classics, and it sounds like it was composed over 20 years ago.

In the same vein as Haimad’s spectacular 2019 EP "The Return", their long overdue debut album finally arises like a beacon in the northern night, more than 30 years after the band’s founding, and continues the tradition of mid-90s style, melodic, symphonic Scandinavian Black Metal albums that saw a sort of renaissance in the recent past, most noteworthy with some bands from the Finnish scene. Haimad show that Sweden, too, can still produce albums of the caliber of the 90s classics, and unleashes a majestic coalescence of classic symphony and Black Metal inferno steeped in Tolkien-lore.

Reissue of this Dungeon Synth cult classic from 1998. Comes as Collector's Edition in 4-panel Digipack with improved layout, limited to 500 copies.

Adorn is more than just a musical endeavour; it is an act of devotion—to the transcendence of art once liberated from the sterile confines of modernity, to the melancholy of deserted halls, and to the fading glimmer of courtly love. By fusing romanticism with atmospheric blackened metal into compositions that veer between solemnity and splendour, the trio creates sonic worlds that shimmer with longing and luminosity.

At the helm is Coeur Loyale (vocals, guitar, bass), whose soul-shaped songs seek to revive a dreamed, not simply lost, world. He is joined by Valliant Desire (violin, piano, choral arrangements), whose melodies sound like ghosted letters from ancient hands, and Bon Valour (drums), whose rhythms echo through cathedral ruins like hooves.

Together, they form Adorn, a sacred community of song and sorrow that resurrects the grandeur of the past by utilising the emotional majesty of the present. They take listeners to a world of twilight where the stars are low, the roses never die, and the heart endures, ever ablaze with noble intent. Their music does more than just play; it hurts, mourns, and exalts.

Adorn is a gift for those who dream in sepia and find the modern world too pale for their desires. A cry into the night. A garland laid upon the altar of lost time. Romantic music for dreamers.

Forged in the twilight of grand manor halls and secret gardens, this album unfolded like a whispered legend between 2021 and 2024 — where shadows dance with light and time drifts softly through castle ruins.

The Gates play „Magick Metal“, combining their own brilliant interpretation of old school Occult Rock, Gothic/Death Rock and Psychedelic Metal with additional Black Metal vocals. Visually, they use classic psych imagery such as colourful artwork and magic mushrooms in combination with occult symbols, while their lyrics also focus on classic forms of occultism and psychedelic experiences.

Seemingly out of nowhere, in 2021/22 they delivered with their debut "...of Pandemonium" an absolute killer album full of occult hymns that quickly found many fans and helped them to gain a very dedicated fan base.

About a year later followed the equally phenomenal EP “As Above, So Below”, first released digitally and as a split-LP with Behrosth, and in 2024 finally reissued as a stand-alone MCD and MLP alongside the band’s second album.

On this new album, entitled “…of the River Styx”, the band continues to develop their unique style, incorporating more noticable nods to 80s synthesizer/disco music and Gothic/Death Rock. While the influence of the controversial originators of Magick Metal, Black Magick SS, is still noticable, The Gates easily manage to distinguish their album in terms of music, concept and visuals, and prove that they, too, have the potential to enlighten the suffering collective human consciousness through the cosmic brilliance that was given to the world in the form of Magick Metal.

Once again they show their unfailing ability to write songs and melodies that as a fan you simply can’t stop listening to until they have become a part of your very being. As before, singer Galigula truly shines, and his clean vocal performance on the final track “Blind Descent” makes you think you’re listening to none other than The Cure’s Robert Smith at the top of his game, showcasing Galigula’s incredible talent as a vocalist.

The Gates’ “…of the River Styx” solidifies the band’s status as uniquely talented musicians that dare to venture into as yet unconquered musical territories and forever leave their indelible mark.

The Atmospheric Black Metal project Autrest hails from the mountainous region of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Founded as a solo-project in the winter of 2022, the debut album was written, recorded and produced between September 2022 and January 2023.

Autrest draws inspiration from nature, incorporating the sounds of the forests and mountains into its music to create an immersive experience. Influenced by bands such as Cân Bardd, Saor, Caladan Brood, Elderwind and Eldamar, Autrest creates powerful and introspective, nature-themed music that transports listeners to a world of misty forests and icy peaks where each song becomes new a journey.

Belenos, celebrating its 30th anniversary in 2025, returns with the 10th studio recording  "Egor", meaning "space" in Breton. This album is the last part of a trilogy on the 3 elements among the Celts. It started with "Kornog" (2016), the water element, with mainly Breton legends about the sea, followed by "Argoat" (2019), the earth element, bringing together more varied themes linked to life on earth, and finally "Egor", the fire element, but the stellar fire seen on a large scale. It is composed of 12 tracks with 63 minutes playing time, the longest Belenos album recorded to date, still sung in Breton with only one short text in french. Musically, it is similar to Kornog and Chemins de Souffrance (2007), a mix of dark and melodic black metal with doom and death touches in the well-known Belenos style.

One of Australia's longest-running and most respected black metal bands, Pestilential Shadows have been building a towering canon of work since 2003. Whereas many of their native land's extreme metal exports either tend toward the chaotic or too clean, the shadowy collective led by founding vocalist / guitarist Balam consistently create compelling swathes of drama and darkness, all-enveloping emotion and regal-yet-gritty grandeur. Truly, Pestilential Shadows are black metal classicism par excellence.

And while the last handful of their albums the past decade-plus have seen sizable gaps between them, Pestilential Shadows strike while the iron's hot with Wretch. Simply and substantially titled, Wretch follows from last year's Devil's Hammer and continues the band's progression / regression toward uglier, gnarlier expanses. Mind you, it's a lateral development rather than a vertical one - the "form" is still BLACK METAL, and its attendant contents are ruminations on death and the beyond - but the fact that Pestilential Shadows can subtly-to-significantly shift their sonic palette whilst conveying their characteristic melancholy and tragedy speaks to the enduring strength of their songwriting. What's more, the album's production is palpably professional, feeling effervescent and crisp even when running through those uglier, gnarlier expanses. If anything, said recording style of Wretch - mastered by Krvna mainman Krvna Vatra, who played on the aforementioned Devil's Hammer, with mixing done by Balam - gives the record a uniquely ethereal aspect, even when the band have kicked into ultraviolent overdrive. Above all, the eight songs that comprise the 49-minute Wretch prove Pestilential Shadows as masters of pacing, doling out the sublime and the profane with equally windswept aplomb. Of especial note is the solemn procession of "Where Sunlight Goes to Die," which features guest choral vocals from Dis Pater of Midnight Odyssey.

As always, totality is key, and thus has Greallach Art been brought back to provide stark & austere cover artwork for Wretch. On the strength of this album alone, Pestilential Shadows continue to assert their position as a classics-minded black metal vanguard.

Isen’s debut album delivers a powerful blend of melodic black metal, diving deep into the aggressive essence of late Norwegian second wave while weaving in melodic elements reminiscent of classic Swedish black metal, yet with a unique twist. Cutting riffs, bleak atmospheres, and organic production converge to form an album that honours the genre’s golden era, yet forges its own dark and evocative path. Each track unfolds like a puzzle piece in a haunting journey through frozen emotional landscapes, where melancholy and fury coexist in eerie harmony. A must-have for any fan of the genre

Lazer Throne’s debut full-length album, Tomb of the Lunar Oracle, opens a portal to the void with genre-bending cosmic atmospheric black metal. The journey begins at the entrance of a massive tomb orbiting a dead star, then hurtles you across time and space as you claw at neon fabric woven from melancholic, brassy synthesizers dripping with celestial blood.

Every sonic and visual element serves the underlying mythos that unfolds throughout the album. Blade Runner-esque synth passages flow into buzzy guitar textures and doomy riffs punctuated by relentless blast beats. In this concept album, the music of Lazer Throne guides you deep into the tomb and toward stars that burn their visage upon a wavering sea heaving at the loss of its moon.

Through immense, haunting soundscapes that emphasize atmosphere and meticulous sound design, Lazer Throne creates an accretion disk of new sound – a cosmic form that pulses and shimmers as it draws from dungeon synth, darksynth, and the blackened corners of doom and thrash to birth something wholly unique among the stars.

Collector's Edition in 6-panel digipack, limited to 500 copies.
