The UK’s Black Metal forerunners, WINTERFYLLETH make a stand with The Unyielding Season, coming March 27, 2026 via Napalm Records. Their ninth album is a social commentary wrapped in meticulously crafted poetry and prose. Where the preceding album, The Imperious Horizon (2024), described an ominous, malevolent force, lurking in the distance, The Unyielding Season now explores said threat becoming a reality. The raging wildfire to its predecessor’s calculating, icy cold, WINTERFYLLETH’s first offering for their new record label is a reflection and a rebellion against the turmoils tearing individuals apart. It is a cry against the unsustainable weight of fear and pressure being pushed into the world, by the agents of a unresting, and unyielding force for evil.

NIGHT OF THE VAMPIRE is the shadow of the witching hour, never seeing the light of day. It will expand your mind into the depths of psychedelic solitude and the haunting chambers of darkness within.
If you so dare, mastermind Astral Shadow will be your guide through the untamed worlds of Black Metal and Darkwave. But beware, for if you choose to travel this path you may lose yourself and forever go mad.

Uncompromising Dutch Black Metal – DOODSWENS’ sophomore album out in April via Svart Records
Doodswens is a Dutch Black Metal band formed in 2017 by I. Live she performs the drums and vocals, joined by R. & P. on bass and guitar. Doodswens translates to Deathwish, but the meaning and heavy load to the word in Dutch translates better to Driven by Death. The self-titled sophomore album by Doodswens is out on April 17th 2026.
After establishing themselves in the Dutch scene, Doodswens gained an international following doing tours with Marduk & Gorgoroth. Doodswens’ performances are ceremonial and ritualistic, which have been reported to be as uplifting as they are devastating, depending on the demons you bring them to offer. Whatever you carry with you will be exposed. They like to confront instead of bringing comfort.

Writhing woe upon a rotting mass of murderous rats comes forth Ecuador’s Wampyric Rites with its latest unholy resurrection of melodic black metal malfeasance, Under the Tragic Fullmoon of the Vampire, a full throttle incantation featuring some of the greatest spells of audial sanguine slaughter to date. Writ mostly in the home tongue of Wampyric Rites, Under the Tragic Fullmoon of the Vampire, presents a truly matured and eldritch exercise of black metal mutiilation; one slaked in infested tremolo melodies, howling oratory necromancy, dark gothic poetics and the same epic alchemical composition this entity is now infamous for. Wrought from spirals of diseased rat tails entwined, Under the Tragic Fullmoon of the Vampire, only proves the unwavering mastery of sonic hypnosis Wampyric Rites have staked their bloodstained moniker upon time and time again. A must have for any acolyte craving the melancholic bloodlust of the perditious.

35 years after their inception Nittedal-based TULUS are still going strong and return with a new album. Only three years after its predecessor, the notorious three-piece is back with their eight full-length entitled Morbid Desires which Darkness Shall Rise are very proud to be releasing.
Instead of straying from their path, Morbid Desires comprises nine tracks that continue the trademark TULUS sound. An abundance of hellishly catchy riffs moulded into concise mid-tempo songs performed by proficient musicians accompanied by Blodstrup’s grim vocals are still the main characteristics of TULUS. Having said that, Morbid Desires is by no means a one-dimensional album. Fast parts, beautifully chanted vocals, flamenco and acoustic guitars etc. woven into some of the songs provide the album with plenty of variety. “Sabbat”, the album’s closer and by far the longest track surely sticks out the most. Undeniably conceived as a tribute to BLACK SABBATH the song is nothing short of amazing and impressively proves the outstanding musicianship of TULUS’ members.
Morbid Desires was recorded, mixed and mastered by Andy La Rocque at Sonic Train Studios, Sweden. September 2025.
