 The pale light that shines in a kingdom of darkness could be just another deadly lure...

After a debut album showing the will to re-ignite the flame of a sophisticated and emphatic approach of extreme metal, yet still deeply rooted in the second wave of Scandinavian BM, DEATHCODE SOCIETY are back with “Unlightenment”, a merciless dive into the aphotic zone, as the cover artwork by Kjell Age Melland shows.

Epic and eerie, the seven songs explore the depth of the human mind through a restless and tempestuous music melting together a brutal metal instrumentation with orchestral arrangements, choirs, synths and concrete samples.

With lyrics bathed in dark surrealism – two of them being rendering of poems by Andrew Joron and René Daumal – “Unlightenment” is a musical journey through the Other Side and this gloomy maze where psychosis, murderous urges and mystical obsessions endlessly wander.

In 2016 composer, multi-instrumentalist, and sole member Thor gave rise to ÓREIĐA in the cavernous and volcanic landscapes of northern Iceland.

"The Eternal" - the band's second full-length and DMP debut – is a contemplative trek into the haunted sublime: traces of Post-punk, Shoegaze and Industrial are filtered through the lens of totemic '90s Black Metal into 5 transcendent and trance-inducing tracks which wed uplifting harmony, off-kilter melodicism, and passages akin to being in the barrage of a blinding snowstorm.

We are very proud to bring you the latest release from two of the most interesting, intriguing, and all-round excellent artists current operating within the black metal sphere today. 

A single track each from the twin enigmas; Celestial Sword, with his chilling vocals, piercing though the clouds of distortion to summon body-rocking crescendos from the cosmic static (with drums courtesy of Palisade); and Trhä, with a slower, more insidiously atmospheric piece of spirit-shaking, spine-tingling darkness, cut with resonant shards of radiant melancholy.
