Belgian speed metallers Bütcher have exploded onto the scene and have been making a name for themselves internationally. Their music caters to the blackened souls who love old school speed, thrash, heavy and black metal. Cuts such as Iron Bitch, 45 RPM Metal and 666 Goats Carry My Chariot are now part of the canon of the old school metal community.

After an avalanche of successful shows and festivals throughout Europe they are proud to present their 3th LP “ON FOWL OF TYRANT WING”. After the rabid debut “BESTIAL FÜKKIN' WARMACHINE” (Babylon Doom Cult Records, 2017) and the heralded sophomore album “666 GOATS CARRY MY CHARIOT” (Osmose Productions, 2020), they delve deep into their specific mixture of the golden 80's and extreme 90's.

BÜTCHER have always mixed ancient speed and thrash metal with NWOBHM, classic hard rock and black metal. On side A of the new album, they continue their very own legacy. On side B they double down on that premise. It's a concept side with an overarching unique story (written by R Hellshrieker) and a fully composed tour de force (by KK Ripper) where tempo changes, interwoven melodies, sitars, organs and various percussion instruments create an unexpected musical journey.

Heavy, death and black metal counter the speed metal and nobody will see it coming. Both progressive and very traditional, this album is sure to opiate fans and critics alike. 

Sargeist has always had an interesting atmosphere, and it's rather hard to describe. Imagine if Mütiilation's predilections for drugs, suicide, and Satan were celebrated instead of mourned and you have a good idea.
Sargeist's music is always vaguely disgusting and filthy yet resolutely proud of its own decay-hedonistic and excessive, like Caligula-era Rome. Well, if you want filth-caked black metal, it's hard to find a better example in the Sargeist catalog than this demo. Sargeist has never sounded so sleazy as on tracks like 'Anti-Human Black Metal Wrath', where the strains of 'Deathcrush'-era Mayhem come home to roost in a short, violently rhythmic track. The production only aids the oily, viscous feeling of these songs, with the murky guitars and drums moving like a sea of raw sewage under the perpetually hissing and howling vocals. It's definitely a good example of rawness used to aid music rather than detract from it.

Re-issue properly with a complete updated layout released with leading band member Shatraug himself as supervisor.

Those Who Reign Below is the 8th studio album in the purest tradition of old school death metal, a work of musical impiety, a death metal as hateful as much as aggressive, switching imposing mid-tempos and demonic accelerations, sulphureous melodies and vocals straight from the devil's forge. An aura of evil surrounds each track, in a veritable debauchery of hate that gives the impression of having witnessed the manifestation of the devil.

This album represents the extreme and uncompromising side of MERCYLESS, which has grown steadily over the years, in a blasphemous symphony inherited from the 90s Death Metal.
The cover was designed by Mexican artist Nestor Avalos, whose talent represents all the darkness emanating from this album. The production was entrusted to Raph Henry of HELDSCALLA studio, who sculpted a sound highly representative of the violence and anger of this extreme and irreligious music.

It's a tribute to the underground, to the man who blends in with the crowd and takes on a presence so frightening that he's so clearly recognizable... the Devil... on his throne, majestic and merciless!"

Founded in 1991, Belial only lived a short career but burned with a bright flame. The band opened the gates to success – and hell – right from the start with their demo tape and mini-album “Wisdom of Darkness” (1992). Belial's debut full length album “Never Again” (1993) was well received by fans and even had some commercial success cementing their name as one of the cruelest and darkest-sounding Finnish death metal band of their time.
