CD - 6 Pannel Digipack (Limited to 1.500 copies)

OTHER WORLD is a crushing and contemporary Black Metal band based in California, where ex-members of BLACK SALVATION, PILLORIAN and BOREWORM explore the beauty in chaos and darkness.

After arriving on DMP in authoritative style with epic 2023 single "Of Death and Alteration", the band expand and consolidate their vision via new album "Tenebrous": an intensely emotive and hard-hitting representation of being locked away from the light with only anxiety, loss and grief for company.

OTHER WORLD underpins their cinematic and hypnotic Black Metal with the ripping propulsion of Death Metal and the monolithic solemnity of Doom. A product of seasoned and skilled musicians, "Tenebrous" finds weight by contrasting unsparing lyrical/vocal despondency, low-slung riffing and powerhouse drumming with the judicious use of calming neo-gothic choral sections, uplifting harmonised melodies and the cathartic sense of a fight-back from dark and murky depths.

Limited to 500 copies in deluxe clamshell box with alternative art, containing the following items:
-Digipack CD + 24paged booklet & Poster
-Textile Flag
-Crest Metal Logo Pin
-Woven Patch (digipack design)
-2x album cover stickers (of both jewel case and digipack design)

Open the mouth of Hell: Filii Nigrantium Infernalium, classical portuguese maniac Black Metal pioneers, deliver their 4th album for Osmose Productions.
Crushing, demented production and compositions. Blasphemous disconcerting artwork by cult artist Paolo Girardi. Forged out from the pandemic, this masterpiece is raw, baroque and complexly straight to the point, an unpredictable, insane labyrinth of sound and words.
Sacrilegious and offensive speedthrashblackmetal, grotesque sinister gloom, venomous sarcasm ranging from old school heavy metal to dark sharpened doom and relentlessly wild blasting beats' devastation.

4-panel Digipak on matte stock, inside prints and including digital album download.

On "Vom Bruch bis zur Freiheit", the band showcases a keen understanding of what has become their very own distinct sonic palette, while allowing for alterations in performance and presentation to further enrich their sound. Musically, Tardigrada demonstrates a strong sense for composition, allowing melodies carried primarily by a dense wall of soaring guitars to develop and envelop listeners in a deep, ever flowing stream of broad sound.

Switzerland's Tardigrada have emerged as one of the leading purveyors of truly immersive, atmospheric extreme metal music. With members based in Basel and Zürich, the band's demo "Widrstand" provides a glimpse into the sonic seeds that would fully grow into their full-length releases.

On "Widrstand", Tardigrada presents a rawer sound that is no less capable of gripping listeners with its keen sense for melody than the band's more accomplished later works. Due to "Widrstand" no longer being available in its original, strictly limited release run, it is long overdue for a re-release. For this occasion, it will feature an additional song entitled "Leere" (which translates to "Emptiness").

Carefully re-mastered by Christoph Brandes of Iguana Studios, allowing for listeners to experience them in a new light, enhancing their original soundscape while retaining the original recordings' essence.

estratto da recensione di metalitalia (recensione integrale a questo link)

"Fluisteraars dimostrano infatti l’assai raro dono della sintesi e ci regalano poco più di mezz’ora di musica intensa, a tratti epica, a tratti sognante, che pure mantiene intatta la ferocia che dovrebbe essere propria del black metal. Trentatré minuti che scorrono davvero bene, complice un’attenzione per le melodie e una cura per i dettagli che non è mai manierismo e nulla toglie alla genuinità di un lavoro che fa centro anche a livello di produzione, che è sporca e lievemente lo-fi quel tanto da ‘scaldare’ le composizioni.
Il campo di papaveri in un cielo terso posto in copertina potrebbe far pensare all’ennesima ‘hipsterata’ furbetta, ma dentro c’è molto di più e di molto meglio, ascoltare per credere."
