Cult Black Metal from Czech Republic
Three essential albums – „Ritual“, „Jilemnický okultista“ and „Vracejte konve na místo“, will be reissued on vinyl and jewel-case CD in mid-November.
Their preparation required several months of work:
The band found the original production tape from 1991 fir „Ritual“ and achieved a result that sonically surpasses the original release.
„Jilemnický okultista“ and „Vracejte konve na místo“, underwent new, more sensitive re-mastering.
All titles will be released as gatefold double vinyls and jewel-case CDs.The new artwork includes original, some previously unpublished illustrations and photographs reproduced in the highest quality. The inserted double sheets of the vinyls contain not only lyrics and archival documents but also current interviews with František Štorm.

Cigno is an emerging artist from Rome, delving into the depths of dark ambient, industrial, and ritualistic music. Drawing inspiration from ancient traditions, somber atmospheres, and the emotional landscape of grief and mourning, Cigno crafts a soundscape that is both haunting and captivating.
"Morte e Pianto Rituale" is Cigno's debut album, a work steeped in the themes of death and ritual mourning. The album weaves together layers of deep ambient sounds, atmospheric drones, and percussive elements to create an immersive experience. It stands as a meditation on the solemnity of death, the cycles of loss, and the catharsis found in ritual. Each track builds an evolving soundscape, incorporating elements like field recordings, drone tones, and tribal percussion. Cigno's music invokes an almost cinematic quality, resembling a sonic ritual that guides listeners through the emotional states of grief, introspection, and release.
The high priests of sinister doom return with “Evil Remains”, their sixth album and first for Hammerheart Records!
“Evil Remains” is a hook-laden Heavy Metal thrill-ride into Nosferatu nights! Back after a six year break with the black magic fully recharged, Castle has delivered a juggernaut of riffery in a hook laden mix of doom and psychedelictinged classic metal. Adding to the atmosphere of majestic doom, Elizabeth Blackwell’s haunted, full-blooded vocals are electric witch hymns of death and madness; ‘Hear my warning, heed my call’ indeed.
Recorded at Raincity Recorders in Vancouver B.C. by producer Jesse Gander (Anciients, 3 Inches Of Blood, Brutus) “Evil Remains” sonically balances the warm and fuzzy with the bombastic power of an alternate universe stadium rock band. Bassist/vocalist Elizabeth Blackwell and guitarist/vocalist Mat Davis bring their unique female and male vocal attack and scorching, serpentine riffs to dizzying new heights. Rounded out by drummer Mike Cotton’s thunderous precision, “Evil Remains” delivers a metallic knock out punch from the first to the last note of its eight pummeling tracks.
Written over a five year period - beginning in Castle’s then home town of Joshua Tree, California after a year-long tour for their previous album, “Deal Thy Fate” - the songwriting culminated this past year with pre-production sessions taking place in the band’s new twin home bases of San Francisco and Vancouver. Since storming out of San Francisco with their 2011 debut, “In Witch Order”, Castle has toured relentlessly, playing close to 700 shows on three continents. The live ritual resumes this September across Europe with North American dates to follow.
Collector's Edition in 4-panel Digipack with 12-page booklet, limited to 500 copies.
Recommended for fans of Heretoir, Anomalie, Amesoeurs or Harakiri For The Sky.
