HEILUNG - Sagas + Sagas Ambient  (2CD)
Pre order

HEILUNG
Sagas + Sagas Ambient (2CD)

Sagas' and 'Sagas Ambient' on 2 CDs in deluxe sewnbound hardcover book (17,5 x 17,5cm) with bone white foil, containing 88 pages incl, lyrics, background information, drawings and photos.
1st edition 2,000 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.

BIANCA - Bianca (3rd press)
Pre order

BIANCA
Bianca (3rd press)

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.

MY DYING BRIDE - Like Gods of the Sun (30th Anniversary)
Pre order

MY DYING BRIDE
Like Gods of the Sun (30th Anniversary)

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.

FIRTAN
Helios

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.

SOJOURNER - Gateways (ripple vinyl)

SOJOURNER
Gateways (ripple vinyl)

Second press in 150 copies, Ripple green/black effect!

It’s been six long years since Sojourner released their latest album, Premonitions. Since then, a lot has happened: the band went through lineup changes, signed back to Avantgarde Music and sort of spent a good portion of these years resting, building up ideas and inspiration for what had to come next.

 Gateways is the result of such rest, a collection of seven new tracks, including “Epitaphs”, the digital-only single released in late 2024. And let’s just say that Sojourner is back at full force. The signature sound that made Mike Lamb and Emilio Crespo’s band stand out since their beginnings, over a decade ago, is still there and now taken to new heights.

 Sojourner’s dreamy, folky atmopsheres are still here, now with the powerful addition of Heike Langhan’s (ex-Draconian, Remina) beautiful vocals. At the same, Gateways doesn’t spare speed and fury, with fast up-tempos and monolithic riffs.

 As guitarist and songwriter Mike Lamb states, “Gateways is a labour of love written over the last few years of outward silence, harnessing the soul of everything we've done before while carrying the band forward toward new horizons and opening the way for what comes next.”

 Sojourner’s fourth studio album will be released via Avantgarde Music on CD and LP on July 10th, 2026, right on time to support the band’s first three live gigs after years of absence from the stage.

DET EVIGA LEENDET - Vehemence

DET EVIGA LEENDET
Vehemence

Comes in a 4-panel digipack w/ an 8-page booklet. First batch comes in black polycarbonate CD.

Emerging from Uppsala in 2015 and taking their name from Pär Lagerkvist's existentialist 1920 novel, DET EVIGA LEENDET have carved a unique and introvert path through contemporary Black Metal, where beauty and suffocation, vastness and claustrophobia exist side by side.

"Vehemence" pushes this melancholic tension further and into broader terrain where churning and urgent post-Metal guitars, radiant leads and mesmeric rhythms propel wounded, hyper-emotive songcraft sustained by the elemental roars of vocalist Jacob Buczarski (MARE COGNITUM, ACATHEXIS).
