There`s a select few Black Metal recordings that have that special something most others lack. An atmosphere which can barely translated into words. They emanate an aura so ominously sinister and captivating that its macabre vibrations make the dark gods dance. Therefore Darkness Shall Rise Productions are immensely delighted to present a luxurious 2CD A5 digibook which features all recordings released prior to their first album Crossing the Fiery Path.

Spread over the 2 CDs are Promo 1990, NECROMANTIA`s tracks of the epochal split The Black Arts / The Everlasting Sins with VARATHRON (including the obscure track “Family Of Dog”) and Demo 1993.

These quintessential recordings will forever stand as beacons of art created in the shadow of the dark lord and will go on to serve as inexhaustible sources of inspiration for generations of Black Metal fanatics to come!

Greek NECROMANTIA were brought forth by Magus Wampyr Daoloth (aka Morbid aka The Magus) and the late Baron Blood in 1989. Radiating a pitch-black atmosphere right from the start, they are widely hailed as one of the earliest and most influential Hellenic Black Metal bands. The Latin term ´necromantia´ denotes a practice of magic that communicates with the dead for the sake of divination – for indeed, these sounds couldn`t possibly have been made without the assistance of the dead.

Unlike most bands which need some time of experimenting and trial and error to find their own sound (if ever), NECROMANTIA already presented their trademark style on Promo 1990 – their very first recording. Although in primal and crude shape, all the characteristics NECROMANTIA are worshipped for were already in place: The omission of guitars as rhythm instruments (they only appear for soli) in favour of two bass-guitars, the eerie, eccentrically theatrical parts that are rather reminiscent of audio drama and totally not something one would associate with a Metal band, the abysmal vocals …

This highly original and dark cocktail that these warlocks brewed and continued to refine on their subsequent legendary recordings was met with fascination and awe by the worldwide underground.

Luxurious A5 digibook double-CD with a 88 page booklet including a new interview with The Magus and many others new liner notes and interviews.
Limited to only 500 copies!

The long-awaited first and definitive biography of the leader of Dissection.

Jon A. Nödtveidt left behind two indisputable legacies; the first, musical. With unparalleled compositional talent, he shaped at will a hybrid between the two dominant styles of the early ’90s—Death and Black Metal. He gave this unique musical style a name, and he consecrated it to Satanism, achieving the complete fusion of music and intention. A bastion of authenticity.
The second legacy, the one beyond music, concerns his spirituality…

"The Scottish threat of blackened speed metal is back!
Featuring 8 new tracks over 44 minutes, the highly anticipated fourth album, Coronach, reaches new heights of metallic intensity.
Bolder, more daring, and more adventurous than ever, Hellripper is crafted for speed and razor-sharp riffs."

An expansive 70 minute venture through the fettered layers of the bleak existential cosmos, Black Medium Current is the sixth studio album by longstanding Norwegian avant-garde pioneers Dødheimsgard.

EXHUMED – “Red Asphalt” is the latest album from the gore metal veterans, set for release on February 20, 2026 via Relapse Records. This high-octane deathgrind assault hits hard with blistering riffs and relentless grooves inspired by the brutal realities of life on the road. From the lead single “Unsafe At Any Speed” to the twisted “Shovelhead,” every track delivers pure extreme metal intensity.  

Giving a follow up to a masterpiece like Black shining leatherà was hard, but C.F. confirms their unique class in creating a waird opus like this, true Black Metal.
 

2021 CD reissue of the 1996 debut of cult classic medieval black metal mastery from Monaco's Godkiller.

A prime example of finely crafted, grandiose yet raw mid-90s Black Metal, the release creatively developed out of 1995's demo, The Warlord (incorporating music from that release, with anti-Christian themes prevalent throughout and an overall concept of the battle between good and evil).

With a cold, stripped down production, plus triumphantly dark yet epic riffs mixed with tortured vocals and highly effective synthesizer melodies, the EP evokes a strong Medieval atmosphere throughout, and shows why The Rebirth of the Middle Ages is still highly regarded as a glorious touch of darkness from the past.

Presented with its original artwork, plus lyrics. Remastered by Godkiller’s Duke Satanaël himself.
