Six keys opened six doors, and their poison crept into our world.

Five years has passed since the doors of perdition were opened with the release of Escumergament’s debut studio album ...ni degu fazentz escumergamënt e mesorga..., and now it is time to explore the corrupted wastelands at these entrances.

Apparebat Eidolon Senex speaks of anger, resignation and misfortune. A glimpse into the smoldering ruins of temples and oceans filled with corpses. Of haunting spirits and mad gods. Of betrayal and unfathomable loss. Seven songs where the demon appears at different places depending on time, place and intent.

Just like ...ni degu fazentz escumergamënt e mesorga..., Apparebat Eidolon Senex was recorded in the Chapel of the Wanderers on old and unpredictable equipment during days and nights of storms and torment.

These spells of uncompromising black metal are designed to curse and bring ruin.

Three years after The Necrotrophic Abyss, Australian one-man band Snorlax is back to wreak havoc.

Brendan Auld’s signature style, blending death metal with an oppressive and obscure black metal vibe takes a turn towards the lands of grindcore, both musically and conceptually.

Toxic Current is the new studio album by the multi-instrumentalist from Brisbane, and it comes with two covers from Australian grind and hardcore bands, Agents Of Abhorrence and The Fevered. To those familiar with Auld’s work, particularly Snorlax, these influences have always been part of his art, but never to such a clear extent. 

Finnish death metal 7" box set series to be released via Svart Records - Part I with Abhorrence, Disgrace & Messiah Paratroops out in April

This is part of the story of the birth of early Finnish death metal. The late ’80s and early ’90s were a time when underground extreme metal flourished, and the main centrifugal force that got bands known globally was tape trading. Influences spread like a disease, and young, emerging death metal groups were eager to be more brutal than the next. Lack of money meant that studios couldn’t be booked for weeks, so the first logical release for starting bands was usually a self-released demo tape or a seven-inch vinyl, where they could squeeze in two to four tracks.

Even though we are talking about Finnish death metal here, the American record label Seraphic Decay, run by Steve O’Bannon, plays an important role in this story. It was the label that originally released the first 7” records for three Finnish bands: Disgrace's Debts of God (1990), Abhorrence's Abhorrence (1990) — the band that later morphed into Amorphis — and Messiah Paratroops' The Past (1992).

The journey of Spirit Adrift has come full circle. With their sixth album in a decade, mastermind Nathan Garrett is ready to unleash the band’s final chapter. Infinite Illumination, the Spirit Adrift swansong, is a return to the wellspring that first inspired it all and testament to a band that in the last ten years has crafted an impeccable signature thoroughly their own, molded from the elemental matter of more than a half century of heavy metal exaltation.

Infinite Illumination has a directness to it, a sense of urgency and raw intensity. The songs feel inevitable, like they had to be driven out from deep within during a time of great upheaval. The fatalistic “Born in a Bad Way” summons a vengeful “broken relic from another age” that must “live again and make them pay” via Garrett’s swaggering snarl, while “White Death” impugns “God shined on a chosen few, we must kill the rest of you”. These songs have a palpable sense of malaise both spiritual and terrestrial, personal and universal, inflicted via crushing traditional doom riffs, thunderous mid-tempo marches and Garrett’s impassioned vocal delivery.
