Dive into the shadows with The Wrath of the Silent Temples, the latest EP from French black metal act Noirsuaire.

Fusing raw, feral aggression with haunting organ interludes, it balances relentless blasts, brooding mid-tempo grooves, and spectral atmosphere. Cleaner production sharpens their sound without losing its primal intensity, making this a refined yet savage journey into the heart of darkness.

Released on black vinyl [130 copies] 

Brooding 2nd manifesto from French one‑man black metal sorcerer Mesfetor. Over five merciless tracks—including the blistering “Etendards (& Ost Noir)” and the haunting “Mass Grave Ecstasy”—Nith conjures raw, traditional black metal sharpened by icy synths and spectral textures

SPECIAL RECORD STORE DAY 2026 RELEASE OF ONE OF DARKTHRONE’S RARE LIVE APPEARANCES, PRESENTED ON LIMITED PETROL VINYL WITH PRINTED INNER SLEEVE.

Longstanding Norwegian band Darkthrone started in 1986, originally under the name of Black Death, before their final infamous moniker was introduced. Although becoming known the world over as a black metal band crucial to the lasting legacy of the genre, Darkthrone began more as an extreme metal band utilising elements of thrash, death & doom metal into their early compositions.

With the core classic line-up of Gylve Nagell (Drums), Ted Skjellum (Guitars/vocals), Ivar Enger (Guitars) & Dag Nilsen (Bass) & presented for the first time on standalone vinyl (having previously only featured in the long sold-out ‘Shadows Of Iconoclasm’ boxset), ‘As Wolves Among Sheep…’ Live in Oslo ’90 sees the Norwegian quartet still in their formative years at the legendary Bootleg, playing a collection of material from their demos (which were to be included on the ‘Soulside Journey’ debut album), along with rare performances of tracks which would eventually surface on the intended but then abandoned follow-up, ‘Goatlord’.

The vinyl contains audio sourced from a digital transfer from the original master tapes courtesy of the Bootleg TV archive, with mastering work carried out by Patrick Engel at Temple of Disharmony.

This edition of ‘As Wolves Among Sheep…’ is presented on limited Petrol coloured vinyl for Record Store Day 2026 & includes a printed inner sleeve with photos & lyrics.

Uncompromising Dutch Black Metal – DOODSWENS’ sophomore album out in April via Svart Records

Doodswens is a Dutch Black Metal band formed in 2017 by I. Live she performs the drums and vocals, joined by R. & P. on bass and guitar. Doodswens translates to Deathwish, but the meaning and heavy load to the word in Dutch translates better to Driven by Death. The self-titled sophomore album by Doodswens is out on April 17^th 2026.

After establishing themselves in the Dutch scene, Doodswens gained an international following doing tours with Marduk & Gorgoroth. Doodswens’ performances are ceremonial and ritualistic, which have been reported to be as uplifting as they are devastating, depending on the demons you bring them to offer. Whatever you carry with you will be exposed. They like to confront instead of bringing comfort.

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.

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."

Burrowing into swirling, surreal and nightmarish scenarios, STRIGIFORM is a new entity from the void, exhibiting members of VERTEBRA ATLANTIS, AFRAID OF DESTINY and THIRST PRAYER, among the others. The Italian band's debut album, Aconite focuses on an intricate and incisive approach to songwriting, characterized by unorthodox riffs and a particular attention to the internal dynamics of the tracks, in order to maximize their impact.

Born between the UK and Morocco from the mysterious singer/multi-instrumentalist known as The Orator, TZEVAOT is a vehicle through which the occult - not just theatrics, but actual hidden mechanisms of reality - are unveiled. Merging the ever-malleable black metal sound with death, thrash and heavy metal elements, and with progressive, classical and jazz compositional influences, TZEVAOT’s first offering - appropriately named "The Hermetic Way" - is a dive into the ancient school of mystical understanding which ultimately gave rise to the modern scientific disciplines, bridged the gaps between pagan and Abrahamic theology, and bestowed the world with the greatest practical synthesis of Graeco-Egyptian wisdom.

Wrapped in a stunning painting by Luciana Nedelea, TZEVAOT’s “The Hermetic Way” is an album of magnetic charm, made even more intriguing on one track by the narration of Lon Milo DuQuette, the world’s most cited living occult author and a high-ranking figure in the Astrum Argenteum and the Ordo Templi Orientis, both institutions founded and shaped by Aleister Crowley during his lifetime. TZEVAOT complements the esoteric depth of their themes with incredibly creative music that, thanks to a mercurial songwriting, moves coherently and masterfully through every facet of black metal, tempering its raw, cutting sounds with compelling prog orchestrations.
