Second pressing, brown + black splatters on white vinyl 

With an inception going back to 2019, Defacement rapidly gained momentum within the underground realms with two full-length records marked by an intense and experimental take on death and black metal, Deviant (2019) and self-titled Defacement (2021). Three long years after their latest output, the international band flares its cryptic head yet again with an epic tome of twisted and gnarly emanations, an immersive pathway into the void entitled Duality.

Defacement's third studio record is challenging and confrontational in its invocation of primal forces lying dormant in the world below. Inspired by the unfathomable, shadowy corners of human existence, Defacement hatches a penetrating sonic journey, unpredictable in its own dynamic, ever-changing form. Intricate and complex riffing lay as a basis for dexterous melodies, making Duality the most complete and mature among the band’s outputs. The cold and experimental interludes entangled between tracks, serve as halting moments that further the conceptuality of Duality and broaden the gist of the main songs.

The tremendous rhythmic section, a complex and throbbing pulse of drumming fierceness and serpentine bass playing, is superiorly captured by the dynamic and organic production, a vigorous sound that evokes both an oppressive aura and wistful solemnity. Gabriele Gramaglia (Cosmic Putrefaction, Vertebra Atlantis) and Simon Da Silva (Aversio Humanitatis) took care respectively of the mixing and mastering, finely crafting the details of Defacement’s new album. 

DDuplicate Records proudly presents EXECRATION's full-length debut album Syndicate Of Lethargy on vinyl for the first time. Remastered and re-edited, and with a new cover artwork, the album is finally available in its definite edition, on the fomat it deserves!

Formed in 2004, Execration - a two-piece, at the time - recorded their first demo in 2005: six heavily thrash-inspired songs and a cover of Celtic Frost's "Into The Crypts of Rays". In 2006, original member Jorgen Maristuen returned to the band, and the focus shifted towards death metal. They wrote and recorded their first 5 song EP, Language of the Dead. The EP was released in early 2007 through Entartete Musik, the now defunct label of Espen Hangaard (Noplacetohide, Killl, She Said Destroy, Diskord).

Duplicate Records proudly presents EXECRATION's debut EP release Language Of The Dead on vinyl for the first time. In addition to the half hour long EP itself the full-length LP will include the previously unreleased 10-minute track Imminent Doom, that was intended for a compilation that never came to fruition.

Execration is tastefully executed brutal Death Metal from Oslo, Norway. Half an hour of brutal death metal in the vein of the legendary Immolation, Suffocation, Nile, etc.

Duplicate Records proudly presents the vinyl reissue of EXECRATION's landmark 2011 album Odes Of The Occult, to be released on double gatefold LP January 2025!

EXECRATION's (Norway) second full-length album, "Odes of the Occult" contains 9 tracks of vicious, evil death metal. It parts with the percussive style of previous releases in favor of a wider set of influences drawing from death metal, doom and cult black metal. In 60+ minutes, "Odes of the Occult" will make your ears bleed from dark, brutal doom-laced death metal chemically cleansed of any "modern" death metal tricks.

Duplicate Records proudly presents Nimmermeer, the debut album from Norwegian atmospheric doom outfit HJEMLENGSEL on LP and CD. The double vinyl LP version includes the band's debut EP (2010) as a bonus, exclusive to this format.

The story of Hjemlengsel (Norwegian for homesickness) dates back to
2004/2005, and it all started with a wish to create music without
genre defining boundaries. In 2009 the band recorded a self-titled EP,
which was released digitally in 2010. After a period in hibernation,
the first full length album was completed during the summer of 2021,
and is finally ready to be released winter 2024.

The music on Nimmermeer (Dutch for nevermore) is best described as
atmospheric, sometimes progressive, melodic (not quite) doom,
dominated by long instrumental passages with sparse, clean vocals
throughout. There's a cold, arctic atmosphere permeating the material,
with the crystal clear production perfectly suiting the carefully
orchestrated compositions. Yet, amid the cold landscapes, there's a
comforting warmth, providing the beautiful duality of the natural
elements so perfectly ingrained in HJEMLENGSEL's sound.

Duplicate Records proudly presents Of Temples And Vultures, the sophomore full-length album of international black/death metal band OCULUS.

Five years after their debut, The Apostate Of Light (via Blood Harvest Records), Serbian / Czech / US trio OCULUS are set to unleash their second full-length album Of Temples And Vultures.

Combining dissonant riffs with haunting melodic passages underscored by the organic, yet heavy production, Of Temples And Vultures condenses the best parts of its predecessor and whips them into an even harder-hitting and more coherent effort. Downright spooky in places, yet never loosing focus on what is at heart a perfect amalgam of atmospheric black metal and brutal death metal.

Enthroning The Bonds Of Abhorrence’ is a crushing experience. Haunting, ethereal Black Metal imbued with the desperate pathos and hopeless despair of funeral doom, Ill Omen’s second full-length constitutes a bleak and harrowing journey. Destination: darkness, death, dejection. If the void had a sound, this would be it.
