CD

If the caustic vocals weren’t enough of an indicator, lyrics of isolation, tales of scavengers of the waste of humanity, and lamentations of regret might tip you off that there is absolutely nothing uplifting about this album.

While wallowing in despair, you might find the self-referential opening track, the first song released and the album’s strongest track, “Unending Call of Woe” to be a great listen, blending a strong tremolo picked melody with tempo and groove changes that are, dare I say, fun. The speed and higher vocals betray a definite thrashy punk influence that brings something more to the table than your standard black metal fare. The phased guitar lead into in “The Ones We Lost” and the ending riff of “Abject In Defeat” are some other great moments on this record.
 

Vendetta

Abhorrence’s comeback to the live arena after 20 years of lying in wait in the grave took place in the black summer of 2013. Svart Records were also there, capturing all 35 minutes of the bone-grinding mayhem and cadaveric incantations spewn forth from the stage. After an unholy gestation period the live material is now being let out to wreak havoc and cause grievous bodily and mental harm to the general public. Abhorrence are still old school, still undead and unclean!"

Un pò di graffi sul dischetto, digipak in ottime condizioni

LIGHT OF THE MORNING STAR is its own occultism, and Nocta is its first full entry into an increasingly grandiose grimoire.
 

Iron bonehead

 

Soulseller

Harsh riffing guitars combined with intense atmosphere, blasting drums and maniacal possessed vocals.
This album is a great homage to the demon of all oceans, the lord of the eternal abyss - the mighty Leviathan!

Regain

Recorded in 2009/10 and featuring Emaceator on guitar and Exciter on drums this is the sound of an unenviable future, narrated by a voice drenched in echo of a dreadful past. Shelved until now, it can be contained no longer.

Schattenkult

Although "new" in name, HAXXAN features underground legend Killjoy DeSade (Necrophagia, The Ravenous, Wurdulak, et. al.) on vocals and synth. Formed in 2011 by Killjoy and guitarist Shawn Slusarek, the duo decided to write material that had an old-school black metal vibe, citing such influences as Beherit, Archgoat, and Blasphemy with hints of Candlemass and Mercyful Fate. The duo then added bassist Jake Arnette and drummer Serge Streltsov, and soon recorded their debut album, Loch Ness Rising.


 

Hell's Headbanger

Before the full-length hits the stores, there will be an EP release as well. AdraMelekTaus EP contains one album track and two exclusive bonus tracks which will not be released anywhere else. This CD EP is limited to 500 copies.
 

Woodcut

The new album from Polish black metal legend 20 years since their highly acclaimed debut "Wicher"! Available in 6-panel digipack limited to the first pressing.

Almost 20 years since their debut album, Wicher (1996), SACRILEGIUM now return with their second full-length, Anima Lucifera. The album title refers directly to a line from a poem by Leopold Staff; excerpts of which have been used in the new Sacrilegium tracks. Similarly, the works of W. B. Yeats and Ferdnando Pessoa appear next to Nantur’s original lyrics.

With Anima Lucifera, the band goes against the grain and abandons the path which they originally paved. Crossing their own borders and rejecting current popular conventions, Sacrilegium mark a new direction for themselves. They are not completely abandoning the pagan spirit but rather evolving from popular tradition in the direction of the esoteric school. Anima Lucifera explores occult themes, which accompanied the band members at the beginning of their journey in the 1990s. Today, however, their music is richer thanks to the experience they have gained over the last 20 years.

Anima Lucifera is an album decidedly more brutal and aggressive, yet at the same time not lacking the touch of melancholy which characterises Sacrilegium’s music. This is still the traditional black metal with which the Pomeranian band is associated with. It is, nonetheless, also demonstrating that these musicians did not freeze in time and still pursue something new to say. They are convinced that with this album they have managed to include and release everything which has been stuck in them all these years.

Anima Lucifera was recorded in the autumn of 2015 at the Pomeranian North Studio. Mixing and mastering duties were undertaken by Nihil (Furia, Morowe, Massemord) at Czyściec Studio (www.czysciec.net). The author of the artwork, and the whole graphic design of the album, is Marcin Łojek (Thaw, Nadja, Sunrise).
