'An Undying Love For A Burning World' is the first new release from Neurosis in a decade, and a potent statement of intent and rebirth - one that marks the first new steps of resolve and resilience.

'An Undying Love For A Burning World' is an epic album of colossal hypnotism - beautiful, fearsome and utterly compelling in a way that only Neurosis can be. Aaron Turner (Sumac, Isis) joins the band on vocals and guitar, a name whose legacy is intertwined with the band’s own and a true kindred spirit.

Neurosis have never been afraid of change, and here they embrace endless regeneration, surrendering to the emotional exorcism through heaviness and distortion that their music incites. Just as the universe tends towards balance, Neurosis’ cacophony of noise, rhythm and dissonance always resolves towards moments of beauty. The addition of Turner's powerful vocals and wildly creative and unhinged approach to guitar proves to be a vital force as Neurosis find themselves again at the mercy of evolution and expression.

The album was recorded by Scott Evans (Kowloon Walled City, Sumac, and Great Falls) at Studio Litho in Seattle during three weekends this winter, and mixed in three days just six weeks before release at Evan's Antisleep Audio in Oakland.

In 2026—marking the 40th anniversary of their original formation under the name Black Death—the legendary Norwegian duo Darkthrone, comprised of Fenriz and Nocturno Culto, returns with a new high-caliber opus devoted to old metal, under the banner of “Pre-Historic Metal.”

Pre-Historic Metal features eight tracks shaped by primordial epics and colossal riffs, driven by an organic sound infused with the ever-present spirit of the ’70s and ’80s. It stands as a worthy continuation of the mastery already showcased in It Beckons Us All (2024). This new chapter unfolds as a vast odyssey through the sonic landscapes of Thrash, Black, Heavy, and Doom Metal. Enhanced by punishing, aggressive guitar work, Darkthrone blend a cauldron of wild creativity with a nod to the songwriting methods that defined their late-’80s beginnings—now delivered with a more refined craftsmanship.

This edition of Pre-Historic Metal is available in multiple formats: CD in jewel case with a 12-page booklet, standard black vinyl, limited edition purple marble vinyl, and a deluxe limited box set. The box set includes an exclusive 180g splatter vinyl with gatefold sleeve and alternative artwork by Maciej Kamuda, an exclusive cassette edition, a CD version, a booklet featuring an interview with Harald Fossberg on the making of Pre-Historic Metal, and two posters.

Warning!
If you discovered IMMORTAL after 1995, this record might not be for you.
These recordings capture the band during the 1993 Fuck Christ Tour and the 1995 Battle Of The Ages Tour — raw fan-recordings, unpolished, and unapologetically real. No sterile soundboard perfection. No studio correction. Just the unfiltered force of a band in its purest form.
These recordings breathe the spirit of a time when Black Metal was still young, dangerous, and defiantly outside the mainstream. A time before trends, before marketing, before compromise. When the scene was built on tape trading, dedication, and cold conviction.
This is a document of an era that will never return — a glimpse into the formative years of a band that reshaped Black Metal from the shadows.

Batushka's 2019 Opus Returns: The Liturgy of Death Re-released!

Back on Black is proud to announce the comprehensive reissue of Hospodi (Church Slavonic for "Lord"), the second full-length album from the Polish black metal phenomenon, Batushka. Initially released in 2019, Hospodi represents a more polished, melodic, and theatrical evolution of the band's signature, ritualistic sound.

Based on the Eastern Orthodox "Liturgy of Death" and traditional funeral rites, the album is a thematic journey through death and judgment. This reissue brings back the ten-track masterpiece, which blends traditional black metal (tremolo riffs, ferocious blast beats) with haunting choirs, atmospheric ambient interludes, and profound Slavic chants.

Hospodi was lauded for its dramatic production, and this reissue shines a light on key tracks like the atmospheric opener "Wozglas," the rocking-yet-menacing "Wieczernia," and the powerful closer "Liturgiya".
