Selling CD - Extreme Metal and Dark music
2CD reissue of a classic UK thrash album!
'In Search Of Sanity' is the third studio album by English thrash metal band Onslaught, originally released in 1989.
With several changes in the band's line up, including the addition of legendary Grim Reaper vocalist Steve Grimmett, and their longest song to date "Welcome to Dying", the album contains a more polished sound than previous Onslaught albums.
'In Search Of Sanity' was incredibly successful, peaking at #46 in the UK charts while the single "Let There Be Rock" peaked at #50, a great accomplishment for an underground thrash metal band!
This 2CD reissue contains the original album, as well as a special disc, recorded live at the Bristol Hippodrome in 1989.
“APHELIC ASCENT” is our second full-length, centred on satanic concepts linked to Chaos-Gnosticism; the end of times (Pralaya) in western and eastern tradistions; the thought of Nietzsche, Frank Giano Ripel and Austin Osman Spare.
Eight Hymns that ritualizie the connection with the most destructive and instinctual energies for the deification of Self, to ascend to states of consciousness beyond all law.
Violent, dark and triumphant, “Aphelic Ascent” is a manifesto of what
the band has developed over these years: an extremist and dissonant
Black Metal, integrated with wide dilated and sulphurous passages
that reveal industrial-ambient suggestions.
Having dropped their third album Choir Of Babel in early 2020 just before the world shut down, the forces of pandemic did not succeed in silencing NYC’s Ruin Lust for good. Though confined to their fallout bunker, the band, with martial fervor, began work on what has now, three years later, emerged as their fourth album Dissimulant.
In the final phase of imperialist rot, Ruin Lust declares war against the festering delusions of a devolving species. The most withering aspects of modern death metal, grinding war metal and black metal’s more bestial tendencies compel this audial exorcism, poisoning the well like a bioweapon spread through open air, suffocating and contemptuous. By the time album closer “Chemical Wind” is done, all that remains are parched bones and desiccated shadows.
Barbarically pestilent yet compositionally deliberate, Dissimulant casts a bitter pall and leaves an open wound on the death metal scene for 2023. A militant milestone in the Ruin Lust discography.
The second album by the Polish newcomers MANBRYNE is upon us!
The album picks up where Heilsweg left off, opening another chapter of passionate Black Metal driven by solemn melodies balanced by rabid fury, while conceptually continuing the topics such as doubt, temptation, human relation with the divine and its impact on our reality both within and without.
"Invoking The Abysmal Night", the fourth full length of Aegrus is finally here and it's going to be one of the highlights of 2023. The album contains seven infernal tracks of Black Metal supremacy in the name of Satan, Lucifer and Death.
Lux Tenebris: "There is more variation than ever before on that album and at the same time it sounds 110% Aegrus so I can guarantee that you will not be disappointed.
I'm highly satisfied with the outcome starting from the cover art and ending with the very last note of the album"
Since their formation in 2007, MINENWERFER have pursued a proud 'n' pure vision of black metal idiosyncratically focused on World War I - idiosyncratic, in the sense that the band hail from America but mostly sing in German. What has resulted is a startlingly accomplished canon that has quietly built itself into prolific proportions, with their first album arriving in 2010, followed by albums in 2012 and 2019, and a slew of split releases and EPs in the interim.
Of those many short-length releases, Kriegserklärung can conveniently be seen as a companion to an album release – in this case, 2012's thick-yet-throttling Nihilistischen. And yet, where that album saw MINENWERFER inching closer to a palatable professionalism, the 24-minute Kriegserklärung fully bursts through those doors with a startling clarity, setting the stage for the band's grand 2019 full-length, Alpenpäesse.
A 2023 official release of the cult classic primitive Norwegian black metal recorded in 1992, featuring Dimmu Borgir’s Shagrath.
The sole release by Fimbulwinter, this edition includes additional tracks and presented on CD format including 16 page booklet.
Fimbulwinter, though short-lived, created a sole cult release in the form of 1994’s ‘Servants of Sorcery’, which emerged as the “second wave” of Norwegian black metal was truly taking hold. The band was formed in Oslo 1992, led by the notable figure of Shagrath, becoming most known afterwards as mainman for the phenomenon that was Dimmu Borgir. A more raw affair than the symphonic majesty of Dimmu Borgir, Fimbulwinter demonstrated a primal and fierce black metal attack, and concocted a perfect example of the early-90s style, with an extra injection of praise to bands of the 80s.
Even though ‘Servants of Sorcery’ as a release didn’t see the light of day until 1994, the tracks themselves were recorded back in the winter of 1992, and so stand as an essential and influential early example of what was to form a whole new chapter in metal history. Joining Shagrath was Skoll (Ved Buens Ende, Ulver, Arcturus) on bass, with the line-up completed by Necronos & Orbweaver.
This edition of ‘Servants of Sorcery’ - a title consistently requested by fans for a proper reissue for many years - notably includes material plus additional songs sourced and transferred from the band’s own tape collection (with work overseen by Shagrath himself), to present this most complete and comprehensive edition of Fimbulwinter’s work and legacy. Alongside Fimbulwinter’s own original material of spellbinding lo-fi grim chaos are storming cover versions of ‘Morbid Tales’ by Celtic Frost (which featured on the original ‘Servants of Sorcery’ release), plus ‘The Watchtower’ by Darkthrone, which is now included for the first time.
