GREY AURA
Zwart vierkant Slotstuk (bundle LP + digi CD)

preorder only offer: bundle 1 LP + 1 digi CD at special price

rey Aura is ready to release Zwart vierkant: Slotstuk, a new, unpredictable journey through art and music.

Zwart vierkant: Slotstuk (Black Square: Finale, Final Piece) continues Grey Aura’s journey into the intersection of abstract art and psychological disintegration. Building on themes from their 2021 album, Zwart vierkant, the new work delves into the second half of Ruben Wijlacker’s novel, De protodood in zwarte haren. This story follows Pedro, a 20th-century Modernist painter whose attempt to dismantle physical reality through abstraction leads him to the brink of madness.

Drawn to the avant-garde movement of Suprematism, Pedro becomes captivated by Kazimir Malevich’s ‘Black Square’: an emblem of pure abstract feeling and the rejection of natural representation. To him, the painting’s void is not merely an end but a gateway to boundless artistic potential and spiritual enlightenment. Within this black square, Pedro envisions his muse, Chauchat—a Wallonian poet and the wife of another collective member. Their elusive romance reflects the essence of abstraction: an existence more imagined than tangible, always slipping beyond his reach.

As his obsession grows, Pedro convinces a group of Utrecht artists to join him in creating a Gesamtkunstwerk—a three-dimensional embodiment of the black square. His unrelenting drive pushes the collective toward bizarre tasks and even criminal acts, all in service of his radical vision. The story reaches its climax when Pedro unveils his ultimate creation: an empty void, a chilling representation of the death of the physical realm and the culmination of his artistic ideology.

Drawing inspiration from the pillars of avantgarde metal, such as Dødheimsgard and Manes, Grey Aura is one of the most interesting names in the experimental corners of extreme metal, and Avantgarde Music is proud to release their new album on CD, LP and digital on March 28th, 2025, just days before the band will present their new work on the stage of Roadburn Festival.

AUTUMN'S DAWN
We Lost Our Hope Along The Way (bundle LP+digiCD)

preorder only offer: bundle 1 LP + 1 digi CD at special price

Autumn's Dawn is an Australian metal band formed in 2014 by two seasoned musicians, Tim Yatras (known as Sorrow, founding member of Austere, Germ and many other bands) and Matthew Bell (known as Anguish, member of Tjaktjadálvve, Skuggor among the many). Both artists were already recognized in the Australian metal scene for their involvement in various other projects before coming together to create a band that would blend elements of black metal, depressive rock, and atmospheric music. The inception of Autumn's Dawn marked a departure from the traditional black metal sound that both members were known for, aiming instead to craft music that captured a broader emotional spectrum. Their debut album, Gone, was released in 2014 via Eisenwald Tonschmiede. The album was well-received, praised for its melancholic melodies, emotive lyrics, and the seamless integration of various metal subgenres. 2020 saw the release of sophomore record Dying Ember, following which the band spent a quiet few years, before coming back with their third record, We Lost Our Hope Along The Way, scheduled for spring 2025.

HIRAX
Faster Than Death (gold vinyl)

Life is short and let’s face it, our time on this rotten planet is limited. So why not make out the best of it and just go full throttle as if there was no tomorrow? This has always been the HIRAX motto for the last forty years. Their indestructible frontman Katon W. De Pena may have celebrated his 61st birthday last September but time has seemingly no grip on him, the man is raging as if it was 1984 all over again.

As a matter of fact, in 2024 HIRAX still dances on the fence bordering thrash, hardcore, punk and crossover while frantically throwing their collective middle finger at whoever begs to differ. In August, they released an explosive four-track, immediately sold-out EP Faster Than Death – and first proper set of new music since 2014’s Immortal Legacy – It is a vicious and to-the-point eight minutes long beast, said to be a taster of things to come and warn listeners to run for cover…
