Bonjour Tristesse - Disaster Triumphant
BONJOUR TRISTESSE plays atmospheric black metal, that is rooted in contempt for industrial civilization, grief for this dying planet we call our home and reverence for the natural world. The band weaves a symphony of sadness, wrath, alienation and inner emptiness with a sense of strength that arises from unabashed resilience and standing alone in the face of adversity.
Bone white 12" vinyl (33 rpm) in deluxe gatefold printed on unfinished, heavy card stock with bone white foil and 12-page insert incl. lyrics and background information.
limited to 300 copies worldwide!
HEILUNG are known around the world for mending the spiritual gap between modern life and our historical roots. Over the past decade, the ritual collective have brought amplified history to major festivals, the Billboard charts and Hollywood films. Now, with 'Sagas', they fully immerse themselves in the realm of video games.
'Sagas' holds a special place in HEILUNG’s discography. It collects recordings that core members Maria Franz, Kai Uwe Faust and Christopher Juul created in collaboration with Ninja Theory for Hellblade II: Senua’s Saga. Taken together, these 11 tracks reveal a more cinematic and environmental side to their unmistakable sound. Performed live during The Game Awards, the entrancing “Seidh” invokes the Norse mythology that guides Senua on her quest through 9th century Iceland.
While it captures the epic journey of Hellblade II, 'Sagas' takes on a life of its own. Franz, Faust and Juul returned home from a 10-day trip across Iceland so inspired by the brute force of nature that they recorded more tracks than the ones that were included in the game. Awakened by rumbling drums and fiery chanting, the previously unheard “Slagt” prophesizes the coming apocalypse with the unstoppable force of a volcano. And yet, even when faced with the inevitable end of the world as we know it, HEILUNG’s music offers a space for healing. Lead single “Laeknisgaldr” remedies an affliction through the simple act of repetition, like water washing over stone.
With 'Sagas', HEILUNG return from the land of Hellblade with immersive new sounds.
For fans of WARDUNA, EIVØR, SOWULO, NYTT LAND.
Cover by Kai Uwe Faust & Layout by Christopher Juul, Maria Franz and Adrien Bousson.

WEREWOLVES CONTINUE ANNIHILATING INTELLECTS ON 6th ALBUM 'THE UGLIEST OF ALL'
By now, everyone knows Australia's WEREWOLVES and their insane mission of releasing ten death metal albums in ten years. 2025 puts WEREWOLVES at album six, 'The Ugliest Of All', an increasingly unlistenable barrage of truly hideous music due out 19th September. It will be the band's triumphant first album on BACK ON BLACK after this year's earlier box set release 'Encoffined'.
After the unexpected success of the first & second presses, here comes a 3rd press in Smoke, black on clear vinyl
BIANCA is an exploration steeped in the subversive fire of black metal, with a penchant for doom and atmospheric resonances, centered around a female identity that spans different dimensions, from an ethereal presence to a primal rawness.
The music was born in 2024 with a series of demos composed by β and Ͷ. ES (from Hideous Divinity and Patristic) stepped in, shapeshifting the songs and giving the band a new form. Sathrath (Nocturnal Depression) joined the final recording sessions with his thunderous black metal touch.
BIANCA's first self-titled album is an enigmatic eight-step journey into the power of the human mind and the unconscious dimension as a messenger of precious insights for interpreting reality. A deep dive into the non-material aspects of human life and their transformative potential. No idea of religion, but a radical atheist and humanistic stance within the musical language of black metal, merging melodic nuances in an atmospheric embrace. A sorrowful struggle runs through the veins of BIANCA’s music, chilling to the core, yet captivating and transporting the listener to uncertainty.
Pressed on opaque red smoke effect heavy vinyl. Comes with a 2-page insert and download card. Colors on final record may vary to a degree from the mockup.
Classic brooding riffs, malignant atmospheres, primordial blastbeats and deathly guttural vocals are the hallmarks of ARCHGOAT's black art and "The Light-Devouring Darkness" is a monument to their unending vitriol and malice. Pungent as the stench of rotting flesh and supercharged with vitriol, this album exudes the reek of authentic, uncontrolled Satanic decadence.
Comes in a 4-panel digipack w/ a 4-page booklet. First batch comes in black polycarbonate CD.

My Dying Bride has been one of the foremost & consistent leading lights in doom metal since their debut album "As The Flower Withers" was released on Peaceville Records back in 1992. Influenced by acts such as Celtic Frost & Candlemass, the band's heavy atmospherics have carved a huge worldwide following over the years to stand at the pinnacle of the genre, & remain one of the most instantly distinguishable metal bands.
My Dying Bride released three albums & as many EP's before launching the massive opus ‘Like Gods Of The Sun’ in 1996, as the band’s popularity was hitting a high point in the wake of successful touring with fellow British Metal heroes Iron Maiden on the back of the previous breakthrough release, the equally revered ‘The Angel & The Dark River’. Upon release, ‘Like Gods Of The Sun’ became a huge hit among the world's metal press & fans alike, further cementing My Dying Bride’s legacy as one of the UK’s most accomplished & important extreme metal acts, with their perfected style of gothic doom evolving into a streamlined & impactful combination of tracks to stunning effect.
‘Like Gods Of The Sun’ was recorded at the infamous Academy Studios (Paradise Lost, Anathema) in Yorkshire, UK, with long-time producer, Mags.
This special 30th anniversary edition of 'Like Gods Of The Sun' features a new half-speed audio master, & is presented on limited "Lagoon" vinyl.
Servant are set to release their fourth studio album, Lux Ex Inferis, in October via AOP Records. Expanding on their established style, the new record merges epic structures and haunting melodies, creating a multi-layered sonic landscape where passion meets grandeur.
Balancing tradition and progression, Servant deliver a sound that feels both familiar and forward-thinking—uncompromising, powerful, and darkly captivating.
FIRTAN's new album Helios charts the brutal path to enlightenment: Not as escape, but as conquest. Named after the sun itself, the album explores what it means to become the strongest, clearest version of oneself in a world engineered for distraction and decay.
Helios fuses the raw, atmospheric ferocity of black metal with the crushing weight of death metal, a mirror to the album's core theme: clarity forged through struggle.
