Eight years after the debut album Vetterkult (released on then Duplicate-subsidiary Demonhood Prod.), Norwegian experimental black metal act VETTER returns with its second outing; Av Sublim Natur.
The theme of the album lyrically and musically is the sublime nature of Norway. The hostile wilderness which both gives and takes life. The sublime is the attracting and repelling abyss. The album was recorded at the ship of rats sounding like if the first four Black Sabbath albums were recorded by Mayhem in 89 blended with old Darkthrone and Isengard.
Musically the album continues the cold and dissonant style of the first album, focusing on the guitar based sound this time around. The album draws influences from old school black metal and crust punk to psychedelic hard rock and occult folk rock.
The album features N.M Haugfos on drums, something which heavily underlines the hard hitting and groovy side of the album. Drawing influence from old psychedelic hard rock with influences such as Ginger Baker and Bill Ward. Haugfos was also drumming alongside Kjetil Manheim on the Against the grain release.
Duplicate Records proudly presents the eponymous debut full-length album of Norwegian black metal band NEMESIS, on physical and digital formats.
Whereas the 2019 demo (released on tape by Duplicate) showed a highly promising self-producing black metal artist, the self-titled album delivers on that promise tenfold. The evident progression in both composition, performance and production is simply staggering.
Drawing inspiration from both traditional scandinavian black metal, as well as more current strains of the genre, the six lengthy tracks that comprise Nemesis create a unique and obscure atmosphere that will send shivers down your spine

Motstand was originally recorded in 2012, but has remained under lock and key until 2020 when vocals were recorded, and in 2021 the final mixes were completed.
In just over half an hour it transports the listener straight back to
the glory days of 90s black metal, combining the coldness of the early progenitors with the atmosphere of the melody-based direction that would follow.
The lo-fi nature of the recordings gives off a sense of urgency and is like a snapshot from an era long lost. That authentic feeling often missing in today's black metal, is prevalent throughout the album.

From the shadowed ruins of fallen kingdoms, the one man army known as Bloody Valkyria ascends to new heights with its second album, entitled "In Our Home, Across The Fog". This chapter in the project's discography entwines the epic lore of Elden Ring with the aggressive beauty of extreme Metal.
ROBUST performs intoxicating Black Metal with pure Will, passion and Dedication. This album might possibly be the record you never knew you needed, an album so unpredictable and maddening that you don’t know wether you just heard the most beautiful piece of art, or an atrocity of dimensions unknown. In an age where everything's ‘perfect’; where production and musicianship has reached levels unheard of due to modern technology, providing platforms for even the most average musician to excel, this album is a breath of fresh air in an otherwise soulless scene.
ROBUST delivers a raw and harsh, yet elegant and masterfully composed album, with indescribable twists and turns. Without too much explanation, I would recommend this to fans of SVEST , AKITSA and the three first GORGOROTH albums. That pretty much sums it up.

SPECIAL RECORD STORE DAY RELEASE MARKING FORTY YEARS SINCE MAYHEM’S DEBUT LIVE PERFORMANCE IN SKI, NORWAY.
PRESENTED ON LIMITED OXBLOOD RED VINYL WITH SIDE B ETCHING.
Mayhem, the Norwegian pioneers responsible for invigorating a global metal scene alongside originators such as Venom, Celtic Frost & Bathory, formed in 1984 & with a long history of tragedy, intrigue & infamy has become a truly revered legend of black metal over the subsequent four decades. A large part of the band’s lasting legacy was established in the late 80’s & early 90’s, when original members Euronymous (Guitar) & Necrobutcher (Bass) welcomed Hellhammer on drums & Dead on vocals, to help shape a new era of darkness, becoming highly influential leaders of the genre in the process; an accolade which has endured to this day.
Revisiting the very earliest incarnation of the band & marking 40 years since Mayhem’s cult debut performance, this special limited Record Store Day vinyl release features Mayhem’s April 1985 gig in Ski, Norway, where the band carve their way through cover versions of classic Venom & Celtic Frost in this rare delight for fans.
This Record Store Day edition of ‘Live in Ski’ is presented on limited oxblood red vinyl and features an etching on Side B.
Tape with UV on-body print, extra limited 30 copies
