Selling vinyl - Extreme Metal and Dark music
Double-disc edition of mayhem's early rehearsals from 1986, paving the way for the cult 'Pure Fucking Armageddon' demo recording.
Following on from last year’s bleak and disconsolate Wounds single, Finland’s purveyors of
‘Anti-Life Black Metal Misery’, Grave With A View, have returned with their most powerful and
harrowing release to date – Raw Illumination. A full length album steeped in isolation, violence, self
destruction and death, Raw Illumination is not an album for the faint of heart or the fragile of spirit.
Recorded and mixed by O.H.R and mastered by Haldor Grunberg at Satanic Audio (Behemoth,
Dopelord, Christ Agony etc), Raw Illumination is the sonic distillation of caustic chaos and grim,
unmitigated despair – every malicious note cutting straight to the bone – and its aura of desperate
degradation has been perfectly captured in the cover imagery; the artwork and layout by Danny The
Destroyer, utilising powerful, unsettling images of model Anna Iivana Julma, captured by the band.
When it crawls from the crypts of label Dusktone on November 29th, Raw Illumination will hunt down
the broken and the flawed, the outcasts and the lepers and swallow them into its maw of ice and
pain.
Established by two girls from the Dresden area, Satyra and Melpomene, both heavily involved in
the rich local underground, ALTAR OV ASTERIA was envisioned and formed through its members'
shared influence of black metal. The goal of the band's material, embodied in their "Éna" debut, is to
balance visceral energy with enveloping atmosphere and dark melody, creating a sound both
rooted in black metal tradition and expansive new avantgarde sounds.
"Imagine you would wake up in a world full of mysteries and realities woven into each other, like in a
story book of the past centuries of Dante Alighieri or Homer. Two black-robed mysteries in
gold-snake masks wake you up from the heavy dorm with blackened sirens crushing your ears,
mesmerizing your mind to sense the allegories of humankind existence. You’ve got an invitation to a
storybook of hellish Sodom, chapter by chapter illustrating thy and foreign dystopia".

The Magus concluding Necromantia‘s chapter with the album “To The Depths We Descend…” -with which he honored his longtime collaborator Baron Blood who passed away so suddenly in 2019- found himself at a crossroads.
He had to choose between retiring after a long and successful musical career and charting a new path. He didn’t hesitate at all. He chose the hard way. Necromantia no longer exists, but the protagonist is here, on the ramparts, ready for new journeys in abyss. For a whole year he secluded himself from worldly affairs and devoted exclusively to the composition of “Vissodomontas“, which is the title that seals the debut album of his new project THE MAGUS.
“Vissodomontas” is an album that is meticulous down to its last detail. Every note, every riff & chorus, is not by chance where it was placed. Except El (Guitars) & Maelstorm (Drums) who make up THE MAGUS, a host of well-known musicians participated adding their personal touch (King Dude, IDVex (1/2 SOUTHERN NORTH), Hel Pyre (W.E.B.), Iraklis Gialatzides (SWAN CHRISTY) & Christos Antoniou (SEPTICFLESH) who did the arrangements for the live choir. At the same time, five graphic designers tackled the artwork of all formats and captured in an exemplary way on paper the nightmarish thoughts of The Magus. Finally, a special mention is needed for the amazing production, mixing & mastering, done at Pentagram Studio by George Emmanuel.
