Emerging from the shadows where it was forged, this work marks a new passage in our journey through the ever-shifting borderlands of light and darkness. Recorded and shaped between the cold months of 2024 and 2025, “Tamsošviesa / Chiaroscuro” stands as a culmination of years of devotion, reflection, and sound sculpting. It is both a continuation and a turning point – a chapter where our path through the twilight sharpens into clear focus.

For two decades, LUCTUS has walked the narrow line between shadow and light, guided by the pulse of this strange world and those who have listened along the way. With “Tamsošviesa / Chiaroscuro”, we now place another stone upon that path – deliberate, unhurried, unwavering.

CD: Jewel case CD with 16 pages booklet.

Uncompromising Dutch Black Metal – DOODSWENS’ sophomore album out in April via Svart Records

Doodswens is a Dutch Black Metal band formed in 2017 by I. Live she performs the drums and vocals, joined by R. & P. on bass and guitar. Doodswens translates to Deathwish, but the meaning and heavy load to the word in Dutch translates better to Driven by Death. The self-titled sophomore album by Doodswens is out on April 17^th 2026.

After establishing themselves in the Dutch scene, Doodswens gained an international following doing tours with Marduk & Gorgoroth. Doodswens’ performances are ceremonial and ritualistic, which have been reported to be as uplifting as they are devastating, depending on the demons you bring them to offer. Whatever you carry with you will be exposed. They like to confront instead of bringing comfort.
