Selling vinyl - Extreme Metal and Dark music
One-off edition, limited to 150 copies
Sivyj Yar is a post-black metal band formed almost twenty years ago in the countryside south of St. Petersburg. Since 2014, multi-instrumentalist and composer Vladimir Vishniakov has been working closely with Avantgarde Music to release his music endeavors, and A Scarlet Sunset Over The Horrid Abyss marks a new milestone in the artist’s path.
Sivyj Yar has always been about the history and darkest times of the Russian people, and this new album makes no exception. In Vladimir’s words, this work is about the innocent, the tortured, the murdered, the broken, and the forgotten. About those who were destined for unbearable suffering. About the sacrifice that they made. The wheel of terror turns faster. The darkest parts of history repeat themselves if they are erased from human memory or replaced with false images. Entire nations can easily be plunged into darkness for years. Icy fear fetters souls, mutilates them.
A Scarlet Sunset Over The Horrid Abyss features poetry by Andrei Bely, symbolist Russian poet from the early XX century, as well as archival photographs taken in the Kolyma camps — one of the most terrible places in the new history of Russia, a remote, eastern area of the Russian country where dozens of gulags held Soviet POWs and political prisoners in extreme conditions until the ‘70s.
Embossed gatefold cover, printed inner sleeve, black vinyl limited to 100 copies.
Recorded in 2016-2017
War Cry by Set, Magnus, Andreas & Henke
Their debut album "Awaken The Black Flame" is clearly inspired by the Scandinavian Black Metal of the late 90's.
Without further ado, UNHALLOWED lead the way with aggressive Black Metal, but give melodic elements again and again space to function as a counterpart in the sound.
The complex guitar arrangements with extensive lead guitars form the basis on which, on the one hand, the excessively aggressive hustle and bustle, but also, on the other hand, the melodic "aha-moments" are created. The cold, catchy vocals underline the gripping atmosphere and provide goosebump moments.
The content of the debut album is characterized by personal strife for spiritual gnosis that goes far beyond the cosmic reality.
UNHALLOWED are a must for lovers of Scandinavian Black Metal art and fans of contemporary Black Metal alike.
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.
