Compared to the sheer brutality of ‘Angrep', ‘I utakt med verden' is quite the opposite.
If Angrep was the war, ‘I utakt med verden' is conceptually the time after a lost one, where we lick our wounds and count our dead. Slowed down.
Someone said that listening this album was like being trapped under water, and there was no chance to breathe air until the end of it.

Svekkelse is the sixth full-length album from the Trondheim based black metal band Gjendød. The second album as a three-piece.
Svekkelse continues where the previous album Livskramper quit, but this time, the band has turned it all up a notch. The band never worked with their compositions with such an intensity before.
The eight songs presented goes from epic to deranged, from technical to primitive, and from sheer passiveness to outraged despair.
The lyrics are inspired by dark local lore and legends, both self experienced and learned. This might be the strongest album by Gjendød to now, again draped by the crushing sounds of the infamous NordStern studios.

With Embrace of Memory (originally released in 2005), Darkestrah reaffirmed their status as one of the most distinctive bands in the black metal scene integrating traditional melodies, instruments, and rhythms into an intense and atmospheric sound that reflects both their cultural roots and their continued evolution.
Founded in Kyrgyzstan and now based in Europe, the band has long stood apart for blending the raw power of black metal with the rich traditions of Central Asian music.
Now reissued as CD, LP and Cassette, with a remastered audio and an updated layout.

From the frost-shrouded crypts of eternity emerges Black Funeral's unholy testament, "Vampyr Throne of the Beast" - a glacial monument to the undead sovereigns who rule from shadows beyond mortal comprehension. This arcane opus channels the primordial darkness of castle keeps and moonless nights, where ancient bloodlines converge in blasphemous ritual. Released originally in 1995, “Vampyr…” is the debut album that established Black Funeral as one of the foundational bands in the American black metal scene.
Each track unfolds like parchment scrolls inscribed with forbidden knowledge, weaving tremolo-picked melodies that slice through the veil between worlds. The album's frigid atmosphere conjures images of candlelit chambers where vampiric nobility hold court, their pale forms draped in medieval splendor as they preside over kingdoms of bone and shadow.
Raw, hypnotic passages cascade like winter winds through gothic spires, while ritualistic percussion echoes from stone halls where no mortal foot has tread for centuries. The production's deliberate coldness preserves the necromantic essence - each note crystallized in ice, each vocal incantation rising from depths where daylight dare not venture.
"Vampyr Throne of the Beast" stands as a grimoire of black metal orthodoxy, summoning the spectral majesty of Europe's darkest medieval legends. This is music for the witching hour, when the boundary between the living and the eternally damned grows thin, and ancient powers stir in their unhallowed thrones.
Re-issue with a complete updated layout and new mastering.

The year is 1997, the deviant trinity is made up of Equitant, Proscriptor and Shaftiel and therefore, the recording is called The Third Storm Of Cythrául. Osmose Productions is pleased to revive Absu's third, most blackened thrash record to date. Originally released in 1997, this repressing is exposed as the “2013 Alternate Stereo Mix Edition,” which was remixed by both Proscriptor and J.T. Longoria (King Diamond, Solitude Aeternus, Etc.) to audibly translate the album's production as the band originally intended. Featuring the original cover artwork by Kris Verwimp and gatefold layout with liner notes, one shall lick the blade…whip with wrath…for swords and leather! (Full-color poster included).
500x ultra clear with sea blue marble shade swirl 12" (180g) in a black poly-lined innerbag, poster A2, full-color on 150g art paper, gatefold cover, full-color on 350g, all assembled in a PVC overbag.
Tara, as a dual-album set. Originally released in late May of 2001, it has been a highly celebrated recording and a loyal favorite amongst Absu's followers. Unlike the band's previous two releases, Tara is a concept album that principally deals with the harmony of strife, immortality, puissance and tyranny. It was immediately conceived after their 1998 release of In The Eyes Of Ioldánach when drummer/vocalist Proscriptor's frustration grew with the sinking intelligence in the extreme metal world – it was his calling to fully educate his audience. Therefore, the album features a lexicon (glossary) insert of pensive occult systems and mythological notations – to assist the listener with an enlightened, more comprehensive understanding. As always, Kris Verwimp infuses the gatefold with three sensational illustrations. (Full-color poster included).
