Standard black vinyl (200)

Formed in 2010 by famed American black metal musician Jeff Wilson (formerly of Abigail Williams, Wolvhammer, and Nachtmystium) and drummer Bob Fouts (formerly of The Gates of Slumber and Apostle of Solitude), the group released a self-titled post-black metal EP in 2012 before going totally silent. It was unfortunate as the EP was quite good, eschewing the style’s typical melodrama in favor of grounded riffs that recalled a more understated version of An Autumn for Crippled Children. Seven years later, the band has recruited vocalist James Benson (Amiensus) for their long-awaited full-length debut, A Grief Observed

Reign in Supreme Darkness is essentially an intensification and consolidation of Netherstorm's most enduring traits, expanding the band's lexicon by basically speaking it more boldly than before. Still a swarming, densely layered maelstrom of medieval majesty and moonlit madness, here VARGRAV heightens the drama that's latently laid at the band's core, focusing the attack into more finessed form, and stripping away some of its predecessor's more blizzard-blown excesses. In their stead arrives a more dynamic approach to songwriting, varying tempos while maximizing movement, and an overall more mournful and mysterious aspect to the prominent layers of synth. 

Pressed on clear with black splatter vinyl, limited to 100 copies.
All copies include a LP-sized 4-page insert and poster.

Hurricane Hellfukker (vocals, ZARATHUSTRA) and with the help of Mortüüm (drums, COUNTESS), Shargaz Isidor (all guitars) and Jormundgand (bass) the band created a tribute to the 1990s Black Metal, doing their very own interpretation of how it has to sound. It appeared to be a 9 track debut album with a running time of 41 minutes of varied and atmospheric music that serves the old purpose of the old underground scene!

Death worshiping doom-death monsters Iteru finally having their 35 minute debut "Ars Moriendi" releaesed on LP. Limited to 300 units on black vinyl. 

For fans of THE RUINS OF BEVERAST, URFAUST, BLUT AUS NORD, EVOKEN, and the likes... 

Originally released in 2017 on cassette but selling out each edition three times over, ITERU's Ars Moriendi has quickly become a highly considered & essential piece of modern underground doom-death. And listening to the expansive 34 minutes of this debut recording, it's easy to hear why: ITERU craft a crushing-yet-spacious experience of damnation and depression, almost effortlessly moving from spiraling suicidal melody to earth-shaking heft, and smothering the listener every step of the way. Even the vocals themselves seem to be world-eating, a force of nature (or even the supernatural) intent on utter oblivion. But, unlike so much doom-death past and especially present, Ars Moriendi always conveys a sense of movement - no sludge for its own sake here - and an expert grasp of dynamics; down every labyrinth, there is both light and shade, and all is DOOMED.
