De Doden Hebben Het Goed II is a visceral experience that is tough to forget, an experience that show Wiegedood to be at the top of the genre and that is sure to blow many seasoned black metal acts out of the water

The eerie quietness of the first couple of minutes of Children Of The Eye announces the coming storm, and the nine explosive, cathartic minutes of this opening song hold in themselves all the strikingly disparate emotions that we have come to expect from Amenra. Mass VI is an emotional rollercoaster until its very last second, until Diaken is abruptly ended at its very climax, as the last breath of an expiring life.

Sad Whisperings was formed in 1990 (as Desecrate) and released several demo’s in the 80’s / 90s up till their split in 2004 and gained a worldwide cult following. Sad Whisperings was pure doom death metal like their early inspiration Paradise Lost and with a touch of the Dutch school of doom death metal like The Gathering. Sad Whisperings got signed by Dutch cult label Foundation 2000 (The Gathering, Gorefest) and released their debut album in 1993 called ’Sensitive to autumn’. Demos 1995 & 1998 are a natural follow up to their debut, doom death metal, Dutch style.
The booklet contains rare and old pictures, flyers and posters. Extensive liner notes from Steven Willems (Rock Tribune, Streams of Ancient Wisdom: The History of Dutch Death And Extreme Metal

Conceptually, Eldamar used to be inspired by J.R.R Tolkien, Heathenism, Elven Magic and Nature. On the new album, however, this focus has shifted more towards existential themes and nonphysical experiences.
The goal of Eldamar's art has always been to help listeners to open up to the music in an emotional way and combine the experience with their imagination. To that end, the combination of aural and visual impressions was and still is important. Where in the past Eldamar used the gorgeous nature paintings of Albert Bierstadt to help the listener to enter dream-like lands, the new album, which is part one of a two part work, uses a magnificent painting by the Polish master of surreal art Mariusz Lewandowski to give the listener some visual cues as to what this album is about. As usual, the music and art are meant to speak for themselves, and listeners are encouraged to enter into their own spiritual journeys while listening to the new album.

Bloodbark is a project of unknown origin made by an unknown number of people embracing that nature is the creator, storyteller and the artist behind it all. This idea sprouted with the 2018’s album Bonebranches, where no human presence tarnished the art. The human aspect remained hidden, covered by snow while nature and emotion sang across beautiful landscapes and whispered verses with melodies to every listener, so it welcomed them into its utterly cold embrace of winter to lull into a cozy and familiar slumber.
Epic Black Metal in the vein of Summoning! A 71 min glimpse into Steven Erikson's "Malazan Book of the Fallen", "Echoes of Battle" proves the perfect Black Metal interpretation of a work that is peerless in scope and equals J.R.R. Tolkien and G.R.R. Martin in brilliance. Caladan Brood are for Erikson's Malaz what Summoning are for Tolkien's Middle Earth. Epic Black Metal can not be performed better than this!
