Sadism’s early era classic songs re-recorded! Chilean Death/Thrash Metal attack!

Chilean Death Metal veterans Sadism return with “Necrology (1997-2002)”, a reanimation of classics from their early era! This isn’t a greatest hits or a clean slate re-recording. Original tracks are left intact where it counts, stitched together with new takes that keep the grime and spirit fully alive.

Formed in Santiago in 1988, Sadism have stayed active through decades of Latin American and European tours, sharing stages with Death Metal royalty and building one of the most consistent legacies in South American Extreme Metal.

The artwork says it all. A throne, a specter, a clock ticking down. “Necrology (1997-2002)” is a cold reminder of what still lurks beneath and a loud warning that Sadism never left.

For fans of: Morbid Angel, Vader, Sadistic Intent, Malevolent Creation.

After the 2023 debut album “Hiding Amongst Humans” ArsGoatia pursue their chaotic and psychedelic musical agenda. "Agitators Of Hysteria" is a stirring black metal expression where you can find something infectious in every track. An uncompromising attack that leaves you shivering in anticipation of what's next. A sonic nightmare with unimaginably beautiful guitars, imbued with the furious call from the hottest point of Hell…“

„Agitators Of Hysteria“ is ArsGoatias second album. Furious outbursts, emerging from the bottom of an impenetrable abyss, preaching Luciferian truths, imbued with perversion, sinister malice, unrelenting violence and death.

With their fourth full-length "Solastalgia", the German purveyors of soaring post metal work their way to their innermost core and deliver what is easily their most vulnerable and accessible record to date. "Solastalgia describes the grief over the loss of the natural world," the band explains. The very existence of such a term brutally exposes our alienation from this planet. While some of the albums’ songs deal with environmental issues, others focus on personal feelings and the challenges of human existence in a rapidly changing world. Heretoir has always been pure emotion. The pain of modern life set to music. And yet the desperate beauty of "Solastalgia" proves to be an unlikely source of comfort.
The joint songwriting of David, Matthias and Nils creates the new sound of Heretoir. After exploring their dark and grim side on "Nightsphere", Heretoir have gone in a different direction this time. The songs of "Solastalgia" cover a wide range of emotional and heavy music. From Modern Metal to Black Metal to Post Rock to maybe even Screamo. Whatever you want to call it: essentially, this is pure melancholy and a spark of hope in utter darkness.

From moniker to visual aesthetic and especially to the sonics themselves, HERALDIC BLAZE are encapsulating the oft-nebulous "medieval black metal" idiom with startling aplomb. While it's often difficult to discern exactly what medieval BM is other than a pithy "I know it when I hear it," HERALDIC BLAZE leave no doubt as to their intentions.

Witness their debut demo, Blazoned Heraldry. The duo of American multi-instrumentalist Argent Pale (vocals, bass, flute) and Norwegian guitarist Peregrinus (HJEMSØKT, SOLUS GRIEF, KVAD, UNHOLY CRAFT) create a spellbinding tapestry of rustic tones and textures. In fact, on texture alone - kinda clean and clanging, yet with more than a hint of ghostly grit and almost surfy reverb - HERALDIC BLAZE stand out, but it's how they utilize those textures in the service of songwriting: winding and wild, frothing up to an almost-dangerous delirium, but more often than not leaving wide-open spaces to let their medieval melodicism bend and sway with bravado and bittersweetness. And as actual flute flutters in from time to time, the sum effect, more often than not, is ALIEN - unsettling and alluring in equal measure.

While "merely" a demo recording, HERALDIC BLAZE's first work already trounces most modern works of "black metal." Unorthodox and unbound, Blazoned Heraldry is mandatory listening for fans of Sühnopfer, Ungfell, Grylle, Heltekvad, and particularly mid-2000s Peste Noire.

What kind of emotions guides us when we feel the loss of hope and the whole life seems to be nothing but a mournful bridge over a river of tears? One got to live ones life, and bear all the pain and sorrows, sadness and depression. Fatal for the majority, these dark emotions may become the pleasure for the others and give them power to survive. The punishment will come and everybody will be punished one way or another. To await or to undergo this punishment is to be a Penitent.
We are proud to announce “Melancholia Redux” of the Norwegian Dark/Industrial/Ambient/Experimental pioneers Penitent in various formats.
Karsten Hamre, Penitent‘s heart & soul, has followed a peculiar personal path and for more than three decades has remained absolutely consistent, dressing his poetry in black and eerie melodies. Not only did the passing of time not deter him, on the contrary today he is possessed by a freshness that is like doing a complete restart. On the one hand he has re-recorded a large part of the 10 albums he has released to date, while at the same time making his own plans for the future.
Our collaboration with Penitent begins with the re-release of the now legendary debut “Melancholia“, released by Cold Meat Industry in 1996. Although the term re-release in this particular case is not accurate, as almost everything has been changed. The album was re-recorded, there is new artwork & new mastering.

A true masterpiece of dark ambient finally resurfaces in stunning new vinyl and CD editions!

Originally crafted by Cold Meat Industry in 1995, Within The Depths Of Silence And Phormations is a defining work of sonic mysticism, now reborn through Rune Serpent Europa in a breathtakingly limited pressing.

This album is a cornerstone of the genre, an unparalleled journey through shadowy cathedrals, industrial ruins, and the vast chasms of the subconscious. From the opening moments, Peter Andersson conjures an atmosphere thick with sacred reverence and existential dread. Distant choirs echo like ghostly remnants of forgotten rituals, deep drones stretch into eternity, and mechanical whispers lurk in the periphery, weaving an intricate soundscape that feels both ancient and otherworldly. Each track is a carefully crafted meditation on silence and decay, where melancholic beauty and desolate ambiance merge into an experience that is as haunting as it is transcendental.

The album’s structure is impeccable, moving fluidly between solemn passages of minimalist sound design and dense, immersive sonic walls that envelop the listener. Tracks like Sephiroth and Euphrosyne feel like gateways to another dimension, drawing you deeper into Andersson’s unique vision of spiritual isolation and transformation.

Few albums capture the very essence of dark ambient as completely as Within The Depths Of Silence And Phormations. It’s a work that demands full immersion, headphones, darkness, and an open mind. Whether you’re a longtime devotee of the genre or a newcomer seeking the perfect entry point, this is an essential, timeless masterpiece that continues to inspire and mesmerize nearly three decades after its creation.

From the moment the needle drops, listeners are drawn into the abyss of Peter Andersson’s haunting world, a realm of ethereal choirs, distant industrial echoes, and cavernous drones that feel as if they were pulled from the depths of forgotten cathedrals. This isn’t just music; it’s an immersive experience, a ritual, a descent into meditative oblivion.

This reissue also brings a luxurious 3CD Sublime edition comes in a large 7" gatefold sleeve (Limited edition 500 copies), featuring an updated mix of the complete album, additional tracks and a second mastering of the original 1995 album, offering yet another dimension to the album’s haunting soundscapes. Whether you’re a longtime devotee of raison d’être or a newcomer to Andersson’s sonic universe, this release is an essential piece of the puzzle. With only 1100 copies spread across all formats, this is an opportunity that true collectors and fans of the genre cannot afford to miss.
