A whole decade after their last album, Portuguese gothic/dark metal pioneers HEAVENWOOD announce the release of their highly-anticipated new record, “The Tarot Of The Bohemians – Part II”, set for worldwide release via Mighty Music on LP, CD and digital formats. Marking the second and final chapter of the conceptual work inspired by the hermetic writings of Gérard Encausse (Papus), the album was recorded at Lucky Cat Studio (Portugal) and mixed and mastered at Vamacara Studios (France) by acclaimed producer Niko HK Krauss (Loudblast, Sirenia), elevating the band’s sound to new levels of sophistication and intensity.
“Every work has its own story, and this new album goes far beyond being merely a concept and a continuation of the first part released in 2016”, composer, founder, guitarist and singer Ricardo Dias dos Santos comments. “Against all odds that arose in 2022 - after a near-fatal accident and imperative changes that led to a number of irreversible decisions - the conclusion of “The Tarot Of The Bohemians” finally sees the light of day, continuing a legacy that has endured for more than 30 years”.
The album is further enhanced by impeccable and symbolic visual artwork created by renowned artist Naya Kotko, whose evocative imagery perfectly reflects the esoteric depth and spiritual duality that define this new chapter.
With this “Part II” of the concept started with “The Tarot Of The Bohemians” (Massacre Records) in 2016, Heavenwood dive even deeper into the esoteric and emotional dimensions of the Tarot. This album represents both continuity and transformation - it carries Heavenwood melancholic DNA, but it also pushes the band into a more cinematic, intense and contemporary sonic realm.

Monolithe’s debut album “I” remastered re-issue! One epic track of uncompromising cosmic Doom Metal!
“Emellan Träden” is a raw and haunting journey through icy melodies and endless darkness!
For fans of Enslaved, Vintersorg and Borknagar!
Jord drag their sound deeper into the forest on their new album “Emellan Träden”, a towering, windswept slab of atmospheric Black Metal!
Formed by Jörgen “Jurg” Ström (ex-Rimfrost, ex-Skineater) in 2020 as a solo project, Jord built two albums (“Sol” and “Måne”) straight from the gut, before evolving into a full band. With guitarist Sebastian “Hravn” Svedlund (Rimfrost, Omnicidal) and drummer Stefan “Jansson” Jansson (Omnicidal) locking in, Jord found the weight and muscle their music was begging for.
Recorded again with Micke Andersson at Studio Soundport, the new album keeps Jord’s heart; atmospheric Black Metal shot through with Post Rock and Folk undercurrents, but hits harder, breathes deeper.
Songs weave through towering riffs, soaring clean passages, hypnotic rhythms, and moments of total collapse.
Double full-length album out now on Double CD in jewel case.
Compilation of the first two albums (remixed, partly re-recorded and fully remastered by Xaos Oblivion 2023/2025).
