"Sorcier Des Glaces' second offering to the mortal world was recorded just two years after the very first album, in August 1999. Nevertheless, the maturity of their sound and composition is perceptible. It's no longer a one-man band this time, involving Luc more extensively, who this time records all the drum parts and also participates in the elaboration of several keyboard parts. The infernal duo is officially up and running.

With its icy atmosphere and dark yet melodic compositions reflecting the northern forests of Quebec, "Moonrise in Total Darkness" defines a young band still in exploration mode. Certainly more raw in its aestheticism than the band's more recent material, but with an authenticity that has forged their identity over the years".

Those Who Reign Below is the 8th studio album in the purest tradition of old school death metal, a work of musical impiety, a death metal as hateful as much as aggressive, switching imposing mid-tempos and demonic accelerations, sulphureous melodies and vocals straight from the devil's forge. An aura of evil surrounds each track, in a veritable debauchery of hate that gives the impression of having witnessed the manifestation of the devil.

This album represents the extreme and uncompromising side of MERCYLESS, which has grown steadily over the years, in a blasphemous symphony inherited from the 90s Death Metal.
The cover was designed by Mexican artist Nestor Avalos, whose talent represents all the darkness emanating from this album. The production was entrusted to Raph Henry of HELDSCALLA studio, who sculpted a sound highly representative of the violence and anger of this extreme and irreligious music.

It's a tribute to the underground, to the man who blends in with the crowd and takes on a presence so frightening that he's so clearly recognizable... the Devil... on his throne, majestic and merciless!"

In Manus Satanas" is the third full length album of one of the topnotch names in Finland, AEGRUS, and it contains the most striking and best material of the band so far, as it varies from fast paced artillery fire to more slower and atmospheric approach.
While impressive melodies with rock solid riffs and dynamic drumming are the body of the album, the high-pitched Satanic screams forms the soul of this raw yet powerful opus.

This sold-out album is now re-released by Osmose Productions with a revisited layout which still salutes to the old one. It's time to give your soul into the hands of Satan!

From the cold dank fog of Portland, Oregon USA re-emerges Petrification with their highly anticipated sophomore album nearly 5 years in the making titled “Sever Sacred Light”! Conjuring all the dark powers of DEATH, DOOM, PUNK and THE OCCULT, Petrification brings their most barbaric, heavy, and yet sophisticated release to date. This new full-length opus will be released on Svart Records 9^th of February 2024.

“Sever Sacred Light” paints a mental landscape of a crumbling universe magnified through the hysterical mind of a deranged and rottenly eccentric undead enigma “Arach-Ned”.  “Sever Sacred Light” illustrates vast musical growth from the critically acclaimed 2017 demo “Summon Horrendous Destruction” and the 2018 full length debut of “Hollow of the Void”. They continue to advance and evolve while honoring the traditions and influence of ungodly masters of Autopsy, Bolt Thrower, Coffins, and all the celebrated favorites of the early 90’s Finnish death metal scene such as Rippikoulu and Demigod. With Petrification’s top tier sonic depravity this album is promised to be looked back at as the measuring stick of what an old school death metal album of this era should be.

Finnish death metallers Disgrace released a bunch of demos and one EP before their first full-length album, “Grey Misery,” which was released in 1992. The Finnish metal scene was flourishing with releases during those days—many of them are recognized as immortal classics among die-hard maniacs around the world: Slumber of Sullen Eyes, Member of Immortal Damnation, The Karelian Isthmus, Children of the Scorn, to name a few. And, of course, Grey Misery!

A bunch of classic albums, each with its own distinct sound and style, emerged during that time. Disgrace stepped up their game from their demo days, recording and mixing Grey Misery at Timo Tolkki’s TTT studio in May 1991. It was originally released on vinyl, CD, and tape by the Modern Primitive label in 1992. The band remembers that everything went smoothly during the recording process. It is evident that Disgrace practiced a lot and sharpened their songwriting skills without compromising the brutality in their delivery. Grey Misery takes the listener through nine tracks of organic, gloomy, groovy, and heavy-as-hell grinding death metal. Jukka Taskinen and Toni Stranius’ guttural double vocals still remind us of Bill Steer and Jeff Walker from Carcass. Some of the riffs also bear a resemblance, no doubt about that, but Disgrace managed to present their own blend of Finnish brutality with groove and almost prog-rock-like technical parts in some tracks. After Grey Misery, Disgrace decided that their days of death metal were over and transitioned to a brighter style with garage punk and rock’n’roll. That is a whole different story altogether.
