Selling CD - Extreme Metal and Dark music
Emerging from the edge of the ancient forests of the Veluwe, Solar Temple offers their debut full length. 'Fertile Descent' lures you in with its direct yet swirling black metal impression and unique approach. Like something sinuous at the edge of your vision but not quite perceivable, the two tracks of this album twist and bend with a dizzying ferocity. Pummeling sounds entwined with a distant echo that also feels warm and inviting.
STRIDZIE DNI ("THE WITCHING DAYS") is a celebration of the countryside in Western Slovakia, with all its grotesque myths and lore. All lyrics are written in local dialect and they mostly deal with folklore legends based on rural witchcraft, drunkenness and also national pride.
Like the Slovak soul itself, these songs are often both grim and humorous, merry and melancholic at the same time.
Are you in for some time travelling? Legendary thrash/deathers Messiah from Switzerland invite you to their rehearsal space to listen to some original recordings from the years 1985-1987. ?Space Invaders? is a journey to the roots of Messiah and reflects their joy of experimentation at that time. All rehearsal recordings have not yet been released and represent some of the songs the way they sounded at the time of composition - and that is often quite different to what they sounded on Messiah?s much-loved debut albums ?Hymn to Abramelin? and ?Extreme Cold Weather?. The rehearsal recordings on ?Space Invaders? are on the one hand a historical document, and on the other hand the instrumental tracks "Maleus Maleficarum" and "The Urologue", which have not yet been released, show what might have happened to MESSIAH if they had not disbanded. Unfortunately, there were no more recordings of vocalist Tschösi's vocals/screams to be found. Nevertheless, the songs give a good impression of what their music would have sounded like after "Extreme Cold Weather". Uninfluenced by the rather sobering reviews of the "renowned metal press", Messiah at that time simply continued to play as they pleased. What is also important: These old recordings from the 80s and have nothing to do with the "noise line-up" of the 90s, with which Messiah are now active again. The restoration of the audio material was done by Patrick W. Engel at Temple of Disharmony and the artwork was realized by André Türoff, who has done cover artworks for many well-known bands, such as Exumer, Protector and Infernäl Mäjesty. Guitarist Brögi added some new liner-notes, which try to explain why Messiah were fated to disband ? but they are back! Messiah have freshly reunited and will play their first gig in ages in September 2019 ? but that?s a different story ...
Över was formed as a result of an immediate friendship between Þórir (Nyss) and 78424331 (Morto, Nihilisticon, Inhottavuus) at the end of the year 2017
After establishing a great trust they began to work on these songs and as they began to work on lyrics and music, they both realized that it would be better to create a new project because of the force they caused in their thoughts and ideas.
Thus arises this powerful but melancholic band. More than traditional black metal, it is music created from the root of all mental pains, but finds power in spiritual strength and transcendence after a long and tedious journey that is summarized in depression. Everything, one day will be over.
That is where Över resides.

Never Stop the Madness - The Roadburn Inferno
A CD / DVD set featuring a peerless performance from the Norwegian industrial Black Metal godfathers (captured live at the esteemed Roadburn Festival 2017).
The pioneering industrial black metal force to emerge in the early 1990s, Mysticum brought to the world a completely unique brand of extreme and Psychedelic discordant Black Metal with insane drum machine patterns and synths.
They were originally signed to Mayhem guitarist Euronymous' Deathlike Silence Productions label. However, this venture was cut short following his death, forcing Mysticum to look elsewhere for the release of their eventual debut album and genre classic, In the Streams of Inferno (1996). A perfect concoction of cold, primitive Black Metal and forward-thinking ideas, Mysticum has had a lasting and profound impact on many since the 1990s, so when the long-talked about follow-up album, Planet Satan, surfaced in 2014, these godfathers of the scene rightly returned to reclaim their throne.
In light of the release, Mysticum decided that a return to the stage would be the next logical step, but it had to be done their way, without compromise; and so, with Herr General Cerastes, Dr Best and Svartravn stood upon three 3 metre high podiums surrounded by screens, with one of the most intense light and sound spectacles witnessed at an Extreme Metal show, Mysticum stunned the crowd into submission.
A new producer was brought along to make the album sound the way they intended. ‘Innhøstinga’ (Norwegian: ‘the Harvest’) might be their most complex album to date, containing nine songs divided into 50 minutes of playtime. The songs are diverse and different in their own way, while the lyrics bind them together as a whole.
This is their second album with a Norwegian title, in which half of the lyrics are sung on their mother-tongue. ‘Lysene som Forsvant’ might just be their most melancholy epos to date, telling the story about those they have lost on their way.

VANHELGA's music can doubtlessly be classed as black metal, but that would be too restrictive a definition. Their music is cold and sinister but with melodies and melancholic moments that can draw you in and lull you into a false sense of security before you realize, too late, that you have been caught in an ominous web of sound that sends shivers down your spine.

This divine opus was released in 2001. It was the first ONDSKAPT release in the history of the band. Finally we can announce that it is back from its tomb. Re-mastered and re-issued, you; the listener can hear a far more clear and dynamic experience of its entirety. “Slave Under His Immortal Will” was the starting point of a path leading into the vast beyond. We are truly proud to finally have had the possibility to make this re-release happen. Embrace this piece of pure dedication and pristine devilry.
