CD re-issue of the fifth full-length from one of the most important bands to emerge from the Brazilian underground Black and Death Metal scene!

Upon its inception in 1989, Brazilian band MYSTIFIER created an aggressive, fast, and malignant sound within the classic black metal style which makes them veterans of their scene. MYSTIFIER's profane and primeval metal reigns true, and has outlasted three decades of trends and turmoil. 'Protogoni Mavri Magiki Dynasteia' is another spearhead in their renewed assault, with a cover art created by Paolo Girardi (INQUISITION).

“Imposing, righteously commanding, atmospheric and truly memorable,” said Ave Noctum in their 9/10 review of Heathen Deity’s 2021 debut album, an opus that also earned glowing reviews in the likes of Decibel magazine and This is Black Metal.

Due to be unleashed in late November 2024, Satan’s Kingdom picks up where that opus finished, offering an equally intense assault, but introducing an even greater level of musicianship and performance, as well as more sophisticated songwriting.

An hour in length, it is a dynamic work that contains moments of absolutely frenzied black metal bombardment ala early Gorgoroth, as well as more epic, earnest and atmospheric numbers. Clean guitars and vocal parts are used selectively and effectively, with surprisingly rousing choruses surfacing from the visceral songs.

‘Uncompromising’ can often mean generic, but Heathen Deity continue to fly the flag for aggressive and anti-religious black metal without ever being derivative. The songwriting shines, with an abundance of genuinely memorable riffs and stirring passages.

Artwork once again created by our long-time comrade, the talented David Thiérrée. The band have also made a music video for the delicately titled song ‘Fucking Worthless’ with the videographer Szum.

Founded in 2004, Finsterforst have released 5 albums and 2 EPs so far. Starting as a folk metal act with high usage of accordion, the band has evolved its sound to some kind of epic and cinematic mix of post, post black, black and folk metal featuring an enormous range of different singing styles and heavy riffing. The band itself calls this sound Black Forest Metal, referencing their roots in the Black Forest region. During the covid pandemic Finsterforst asked their fans to help funding a new EP with only one song clocking in at almost 40 minutes. The fans came to help, Jenseits was born. Definitely not made for streaming, Finsterforst continue to go their own way of creating mind-bending art that will stand the test of time. The new mini album has only one song clocking in at almost 40 minutes. This album is divided into 4 chapters.

CD reissue of the classic second full-length from from the Italian black-doom metal icons, CULTUS SANGUINE.

Combining elements of doom, goth, and black metal, Italy's Cultus Sanguine released a pair of well-regarded albums in the 1990s (Shadows Blood and The Sum of All Fears) before ceasing operations in 2001. After reconvening as a live entity in 2018, the band returned to the studio and completed their third long-player, Dust Once Alive.

This album, written between 2022 and 2024, is thematically a continuation of the previous album (Genetic Grief). It explores the past through the lens of our ancestors and is a link to the present. One of the bridges linking the past and the present is nature. Nature, which has witnessed everything, has seen everything and brings the knowledge and stories of our ancestors to us. In this album, the focus is on the ancient Georgian tree cult, which existed in Georgia before our era. Our ancestors believed that the souls of dead people moved into the tree branches and leaves. To me, this is the most beautiful formulation of the state after death among all the versions presented by religions. The nature of Georgia holds many secrets; my goal and desire is to delve as deeply as possible into these stories and to feel them as intensely as possible.

2-CD hardcover book (18 x 18cm, 48 pages) + excl. Bonus CD with 5 bonus tracks

"Àmor" is a pure rush of passion and irresistibly sexy! The burning pulse of the sun's nuclear fire scorching the desert. The smooth sliding of glistening skin over other skin in a throbbing rhythm. The swelling hum of motion in a mass of bodies. KLIMT 1918 capture many such fleeting moments in time and preserve them through cascading walls of sound and the elegant drone of guitars. The Italian's fifth album, "Àmor", represents a climax of their acclaimed previous work into a most melancholic, sensual, and majestic collection of captivating music. "Àmor" was born out of silence, solitude and social distancing. Yet as a deliberate artistic counterpoint, KLIMT 1918 decided to have all their new songs revolve around carnality, ardour, physical contact between bodies, and the urgent, compelling feelings that keep people awake at night. As a crowning glory, KLIMT 1918 were artistically knighted when the legendary Tony Doogan accepted to mix 'Àmor' and Frank Arkwright (Abbey Road Studios) added his mastering genius. Both renowned engineers have previously joined forces to collaborate with such acts as MOGWAI and SNOW PATROL, and their portfolios also include such greats as JOY DIVISION, COLDPLAY, and OASIS among many others. Although it took plenty of time, diligence, and energy, "Àmor" proves with every second that the album is more than worth this long wait. KLIMT 1918 take their raw emotionality expressed in dynamic, glowing soundscapes rather than fixed structures and calculated hooks to another peak!
