Selling CD - Extreme Metal and Dark music
– black vinyl
1995 – 2025 / 30th anniversary release
In its original CD form, this has been ABIGOR´s most celebrated and best sold album, together with CRADLE OF FILTH´s debut heralding the start of Gothic Black Metal. Yet in stark contrast to the commercial traits, behind the well-implemented female vocals and tasteful keyboard additions lurks a backbone of Satanic Black Metal in its most radical form – by that, being a true product of the underground’s peak moment, when Black Metal reared its most ugly head in 1995.
In this regard, Nachthymnen is an almost solitary case, written by the reckless Austrian triumvirate at the age of 19 and 20, uniting beauty and wickedness, melancholic longing and an apocalyptic death drive. The most majestic album in the band’s history, capturing the essence of the fully blossoming 90s Black Metal scene at its turning point – the freedom and extremism of a scene which fell victim to a crisis of disorientation and mainstream corruption soon after. Nachthymnen may be one of the albums to blame for that, but remains fully innocent in its intention and execution. 9 hymns to the night, to demonic magic and the twilight kingdom.
This LP version in a glossy gatefold-sleeve for the first time delivers 1995 Hörnix sound perfectly transferred to vinyl, featuring a bonus CD with 1994/95 instrumental demo-rehearsals including early alternative versions, an extensive 32 page booklet, a poster and a brand-new master as download card as well.

Formed in 2024 by the guitarist/bassist Sz. I. (Shodan) & the vocalist S. (Mānbryne, Blaze of Perdition), then joined by the drummer KwB (Owls Woods Graves) shortly after, Stellar Blight offers a striking and catchy take on highly energetic metal of death in the vein of late Dissection, Wayfarer or Tribulation, while also not shying away from traditional heavy metal roots.
“Eventide: Synod of the Dying Stars” is the band’s debut full-length album consisting of 10 tracks spanning over 40+ minutes of death driven heavy metal. Recorded at Sound of Records & Studio Roslyn and currently being mixed and mastered by Satanic Audio.
Originally released in 2006, 'Ashes Against the Grain' seamlessly blends heaviness with atmosphere and precision. With their third full-length, the band continued their musical journey, always a step ahead, but without losing grip of their dark metal roots. The album combines elements of black metal, Scandinavian prog-rock, and post-rock with the unique, melancholic, contemplative style that is so typical of Agalloch.
From the driving force of “Falling Snow” to the dissolving trilogy “Our Fortress Is Burning...,” this is Agalloch at their most direct and elemental. A contrast to the warmth firey nightsky of 'Pale Folklore', the monumental poetic folk of 'The Mantle' , 'Ashes...' gazes into a horizon of dying embers with clarity.
The band’s panoramic scope of songwriting - takes on a widescreen scale - combined with the albums imagery, and production all aligned into a monolithic statement — sharp, modern, and unrelentingly melancholic.
Solid hardbound book edition (20x20cm) featuring bronze hot foil finish, 64 pages with artwork, lyrics, and information around the album. Extensive liner notes from the press and musicians and specifically curated interview related to the album itself. Double CD set with Ashes Againast The Grain on Disc 1, and Selected Fragments on Disc 2.
