Back in stock - Extreme Metal and Dark music
This is a big album, with big songs and a big sound! Mandatory if you like: Solstice (UK), Candlemass, Solitude Aeternus, (old) Anathema
With the second album, Can Bardd take a huge step forward from the already very good debut album. Improved songwriting as well as an excellent production this time around solidify the Can Bardd's ambition to stand proudly in the Atmospheric Black Metal olymp alongside bands like Caladan Brood, Summoning, Sojourner, Elderwind, Eldamar or Pure Wrath.
Nature Stays Silent is an excellent album of atmospheric black metal, but it's mostly an excellent music album. Far from being redundant and never sacrificing either technicality to emotion, nor emotion to technicality,
Cân Bardd manages to keep the interest of the listener during relatively long compositions, in a genre where the impression of déjà-vu unfortunately happens often as the codes are found reinterpreted too often without real originality.
Having not only the merit of offering their own interpretation of the atmospheric black metal, but also of achieving it brilliantly, Cân Bardd delivers with A Nature Stays Silent an excellent first album, a real musical journey in the confines that still remains to discover .

Considering that The Saga of Nemesis came out in April 1986, meaning just about three months after Assassin´s debut demo Holy Terror, the group had taken a big leap forward – not least regarding its production values, making the four songs plus intro an abrasion-proof set of thrash from a time when the German scene was maturing at a frantic pace.
Official reissue of both legendary demo’s from the Swedish 80s black/thrash metal undergound legends MEFISTO.
1986: Next to mighty BATHORY, MERCILESS, OBSCURITY and later MORBID and NIHILIST, MEFISTO were one of the first bands, which proudly hold high the flag of extreme metal underground in Sweden. Although they never made it out of the underground, these two demos are a testament to how vibrant and active the scene was in the 80’s. A scene that would cause a sensation, especially in Sweden, just a short time later…
