Deluxe 12" vinyl edition feat. three overlooked tracks.

For over a decade, FEN have steadily developed into one of the most intriguing bands within the UK black metal scene. Often bracketed within the post-black and "shoegaze" movements, the London trio’s sound is actually more unique to themselves – a startling paradox of searing and aggressive paradox within a progressively daring and ambient beauty. Starting out with a pastoral form of atmospheric black metal on 2009's acclaimed debut The Malediction Fields, the trio's sound has expanded and diversified considerably across five full-length albums to embrace a number of different elements all honed and synthesized into a distinctive, yet captivating, soundscape. In late 2015, the band recorded a three-track EP, entitled Stone and Sea, which was a deliberate hearken back to their older, more explosive, sound whilst retaining the maturity the English trio had developed across the years. The intention was to record something ‘for themselves’, to escape from the album cycle for a time and work on a self-contained piece.  

Recorded, produced and re-mastered specifically for vinyl by Greg Chandler (Esoteric, Lychgate, Grave Miasma, Fluisteraars), these tracks take the best aspects of post-rock and black metal and intertwine key elements of traditional folk to create a masterpiece laced with a definite touch of the "epic."
'Stone & Sea' is a tribute to the crumbling coastlines of Eastern England and the spirits that lie restless beneath the waters.

Info: gli Electrocution sono autentiche Leggende del Death Metal italiano, attivi fin dal lontano 1990 ed autori nel 1993 della Pietra Miliare dal titolo "Inside The Unreal", che li fece balzare agli onori delle cronache come una delle migliori band della scena, a cui seguirono Tour con i piu' grandi mostri sacri dell'Epoca come Death e Carcass. Goregorecords, la sublabel Death Metal di Aural Music è fiera di presentare il nuovo lavoro in Studio della band Bolognese, che spazza via ogni cosa fin dal primo ascolto e mette subito in chiaro le cose: Psychonolatry è una Bomba Sonica da un miliardo di megatoni pronta ad esplodervi nelle orecchie, la band si è letteralmente superata con un certosino lavoro nei piu' minimi dettagli per offrire quello che senza ombra di dubbio è il disco Death Metal DEFINITIVO del 2019.

Black Vinyl

Never, Neverland is the album that turns the page for UNTO OTHERS. Their third LP, following underground classics, Mana and Strength, it's the sound of harsh light breaking through the Portland quartet's darkened gothic and classic metal motifs. After significant radio play and hundreds of live shows around the world in the company of Behemoth, Arch Enemy, and King Diamond (amongst many others), frontman Gabe Franco and Co. have teamed up with producer Tom Dalgety (Ghost, The Cult), taking the next step from dark sunglasses and chugging metallic riffs to the more melodious gloom of lead track, "Butterfly", the crunching, punkish abandon of "Suicide Today" or the grandiosity of "Angel of the Night". It's the album that continues to mark UNTO OTHERS not only as the successors to Type O Negative or the Sisters of Mercy, but as a great rock band on the verge of something unholy and massive.

LIMBONIC ART are back! Their ninth full-length "Opus Daemoniacal" is black as a raven, fierce as a wolf, majestic as an eagle, and mighty as the legendary Norwegian black metal pioneers that mastermind, vocalist, and multi-instrumentalist Vidar "Daemon" Jensen founded in 1993 have always been. "Opus Daemoniacal" continues along the more straightforward black metal path that the Norwegian has chosen for his last releases yet this album also deliberately harks back to the dense atmospheric and cinematic feel of LIMBONIC ART's groundbreaking early works. After having turned into a duo, the debut album "Moon in the Scorpio" was released in 1996 via Nocturnal Art Productions – the label of EMPEROR guitarist Samoth aka Tomas Thormodsæter Haugen. Their at the time quite unique combination of harsh Nordic black metal with cinematic elements inspired by romantic and classic orchestral music proved extremely influential in the following years. With their sophomore full-length "In Abhorrence Dementia" (1997) and the third album "Epitome of Illusions" (1998) LIMBONIC ART gradually reduced the symphonic elements of their sound. In February 2003, the duo broke up, but Daemon reformed the band in 2006. He continued to release the LIMBONIC ART albums "Phantasmagoria" (2010) and "Spectre Abysm" (2017). "Opus Daemoniacal" connects the present to the early sound of the Norwegian cult act, which is bound to appeal to friends of their first albums as well as to a new generation of classic Norse black metal connoisseurs.

Finally Drowned takes up the torch from where they left off with their mini-album "Viscera Terrae" in 2006.
The purpose of "Idola Specus is not to present a rehash of times begone, but to add a valid statement
to the gospel of Death Metal as it was meant to be played. Emanating an aura of surreal morbidity with
hints of doom and prog, "Idola Specus" is as esoteric and introspective as it is dark, heavy, and raw.

Vinile Nero

Gli Islandesi Dynfari tornano con il loro terzo disco, dopo lo stupendo "Sem Skuggin" del 2012, e lo fanno alla grandissima... clamoroso Black Metal Atmosferico in bilico tra glaciali sfuriate e catarsi geotermiche, suoni naturali e vivi, oltre alla ormai collaudata abilità nel far confluire le influenze in un formato-suono coerente e coeso, ma nel contempo libero di spaziare e respirare a pieni polmoni dal Talento compositivo di una delle piu' interessanti Band emerse negli ultimi anni.
