CD

“Mysteria Mystica Zothyriana” is the legendary debut published by the greek label Unisound. After the demise of the label it was bootlegged countless times through the years increasing the band fame and still stands as a fine example of second wave black metal. Reissued in jewelcase format with slipcase with a rich booklet with liner notes and pictures!

Helheim, one of the founding pioneers of the Norwegian viking metal genre, are ready to release their 12th studio album “HrabnaR / Ad vesa”. On this record, Helheim has made a split album with themselves. For the first time, the main songwriters V'gandr and H'grimnir have divided the album in two, where they solely take care of the vocals on the part they represent musically. This has resulted in two very different expressions - not uncommon for this band, but never as clearly as here. The first half, “Hrabnar”, contains four stand-alone songs written by H’grimnir. The second part, “Ad vesa”, is about the four components in Norse mythology that we know collectively as the human soul. In pre-Christian Norway, the concept of the soul was not a singular, unified entity, but a composite of many elements, of which the four key components were Fylgja, Hamr, Hugr, and Hamingja. Founded in 1992, Helheim are known and renowned all over the world for their authenticity and integrity when it comes to portraying their Norse heritage. Constantly growing and evolving, and staying clear of musical trends and fads, they’ve carved their own way for more than 30 years.

This limited edition comes in black polycarbonate CD, 4-panel digipack w/ a 16-page booklet and an exclusive slipcase printed with silver lamination.

After delivering the triumphant 2023 affirmation that they are "…still fucking I.C.E.!" via 20-year-awaited second album "Ancient Glacial Resurgence", the inimitable battalion strikes immediately again with another shattering full-length of mystical Black Metal savagery.

The third revelation from IMPERIAL CRYSTALLINE ENTOMBMENT is the latest apocalyptic statement from a legion once seemingly cryogenically frozen in time - advancing their legacy in a hostile whirlwind of compulsive new paeans to the ancient anti-God Råvaskieth.

Lazer Throne’s debut full-length album, Tomb of the Lunar Oracle, opens a portal to the void with genre-bending cosmic atmospheric black metal. The journey begins at the entrance of a massive tomb orbiting a dead star, then hurtles you across time and space as you claw at neon fabric woven from melancholic, brassy synthesizers dripping with celestial blood.

Every sonic and visual element serves the underlying mythos that unfolds throughout the album. Blade Runner-esque synth passages flow into buzzy guitar textures and doomy riffs punctuated by relentless blast beats. In this concept album, the music of Lazer Throne guides you deep into the tomb and toward stars that burn their visage upon a wavering sea heaving at the loss of its moon.

Through immense, haunting soundscapes that emphasize atmosphere and meticulous sound design, Lazer Throne creates an accretion disk of new sound – a cosmic form that pulses and shimmers as it draws from dungeon synth, darksynth, and the blackened corners of doom and thrash to birth something wholly unique among the stars.

Finally, one of the most melancholic and intriguing albums of the Finnish '90s scene is available again on CD !

Languid sensations of searing nostalgia pierce the hearts of lost souls, drifting among the blurred glimmers of impalpable horizons. Dead leaves sink into the muddy paths of wooded lands, distant and forever forgotten. Like tears of radiant melancholy, silent tributaries flow into the river of betrayed passion, of emotions burning in the crackling hearth that illuminates the darkest nights.

If lament has a meaning, it explodes in an orgasm of sounds, echoes faded by a love sadly lost. A love clung to with the fragile strength of nails broken by the most lacerating anguish, screaming despair to the winds of silence, to the currents of abandonment. And no one listens, because among the branches of oblivion, the goddess of pain bestows eternal torment, an irrevocable exile to the lands of unhappiness, where the roars of deformed ogres erase the memory of sweet feminine choirs. There are few words left to describe the dazzling splendor of this work, tormented by the solemn progression of slow notes drowning in the deepest dismay. Ivory keys embrace the delicate six-string, at times "electrically" agitated, at times soft and acoustic; Gregorian chants virtuously duet with the seductive femininity of a weeping maiden, while drowsy rhythms lazily support the eleven hymns to decadence presented here.

Classical music infused with virtuosic pianos, dreamy synths, and guitar echoes suspended between the darkest doom and Floydian solos give birth to a unique monolithic blend where melody reigns supreme. No space for metallic accelerations, no sign of life in the motionless drumming—only a bleak sense of burning defeat emphasized by the slowness of tracks that celebrate the funeral of hope. This, without the need for screams or shrieks, using harmonies of torturous sweetness that push the listener to the limits of sonic endurance, generating a chant of pure and profound gothic essence.

A well-deserved tribute goes to the individual, talented musicians, particularly to the penetrating Gregorian voice of Jukka Vuorinen (skilled in weaving highly emotional riffing) and to the crystalline warbles of guest Sini Koivuniemi, capable of conveying both delicate and tempestuous emotions. For an hour, surrender to the desolate caresses of this dark oblivion.

Emptiness you will all sink in.
