 Special Edition CD in Triple Gatefold 7′ Format 

For those who know and truly understand actual underground black metal, Mons Veneris require no introduction. For over 20 years now, this shadowy and insanely prolific Portuguese cabal have pursued a uniquely vile vision with an unquenchable thirst. From hammering primitivism to medieval melancholy, volcanic drone to chaotic oblivion, nods to the French Black Legions to frequencies far outside of metal, there's never any guarantee of how Mons Veneris' vision will manifest itself - only that they'll explore a darkness few have the constitution to tread.

Witness their Ascent Into Draconian Abyss, which was teasingly released in an extremely limited tape version for those who had the good fortune of attending the most recent Signal Rex-curated Invicta Requiem Mass festival and witnessing their crimes in the flesh. As the duo forecasted with the recent maxi-single Excesses of Perpetual Gloom, their muse only becomes thirstier and more miserable. Mons Veneris are always surprising, yet always uncompromising and always themselves, as testified by Ascent Into Draconian Abyss: the opening 20-minute title track is a harrowing descent into lunacy, and the ghoulishness only intensifies on the album's successive three tracks. More monkish vokills come forth, haunting like nothing else as their buzzing belligerence winds through craggy corridors of mondo-primitivism, all before the hall-of-mirrors madness of closer "Chant to the Unknown." Mons Veneris will fuck you on your Ascent Into Draconian Abyss! 

Based on different translations of the Secret Book of John, Rex Mundi is composed by two lengthy hymns dedicated to Yaltabaoth. Gaze upon the monstrosity of what we call the Desecrator of the Monad. Witness the malevolent creation of what you consider life.

The songs range from pure extreme fury to transcendental evil chants, leading to the uttermost sense of terror and emptiness.
Cold Poison comes back as well with his extraordinary art, depicting our most intimate and disturbing nightmares.

This project continues its path in bringing this specific Slavic black metal concept, now devoid of synthesisers that were present in Gerzolth's earlier works. Such absence pushes the guitars and vocals to the forefront, resulting in a harsher and more aggressive black metal experience. This shift creates a sense of untamed ferocity, characteristic of this genre's untamed side.

Gerzolth's aesthetic draws clear influence from the legendary BlazeBirth Hall scene, known for its frigid and bleak atmospheres. The album art also bears a striking resemblance to the cover of Krahnholm's latest release, further solidifying their connection to this style of black metal."

Set in a world teetering on the brink of collapse, "Tidal Passages" is a deeply emotional Album that explores the fragility of human connections amidst global disaster

Bloodbark is a project of unknown origin made by an unknown number of people embracing that nature is the creator, storyteller and the artist behind it all. This idea sprouted with the 2018’s album Bonebranches, where no human presence tarnished the art. The human aspect remained hidden, covered by snow while nature and emotion sang across beautiful landscapes and whispered verses with melodies to every listener, so it welcomed them into its utterly cold embrace of winter to lull into a cozy and familiar slumber.

In the same vein Sacred Sound of Solitude banishes all humanity and captures the snow, spirits and creatures in a world that was born anew. And there, little stories form like snowflakes within forests and mountains to bring out majestic melodies intertwined with harsh winds and thundering avalanches. It dwells into emotional journeys of spirits, battles of elements and disintegration of living beings into eternal nature. While Bloodbark started as a perfect representation of the Majestic in Atmospheric Black Metal, it now evolved into a crisp, cold and yet more complex distinction of the Majestic. However, it does not stray too far from Atmospheric Black Metal but deepens its roots. All of this is accompanied by stunning photography of nature in winter and art that is not outsourced.

 Reissue of the sold out CD from 2018 alongside the band's second album. Comes in jewel case with 8-page booklet.

Bloodbark is an Epic/Atmospheric Black Metal project of unknown origin and should appeal to fans of Caladan Brood and similar bands.

Spere was founded in 2023 as a two-piece project by members of the German black metal bands Horn and Halphas. Designed to be performed with only guitar, vocals, and drums, the band focuses on energetic, rhythmic structures and groove, combined with eerie arpeggios. This approach creates a dynamic and atmospheric soundscape, made more robust by varied drum fills and layered guitar effects transported via both guitar and bass amps.

The debut album "Eight - led to the beam" revolves around the narrative of eight fictional characters who became obsolete and met their end. Each song explores the stories of these characters, figures of will, faith, energy, or even those with despicable natures, who overstayed their welcome in this world. The band embraces an archaic visual style, centered around bronze hues, oil lamps, candlelight, and metallic artifacts, reflecting the themes of the album

Released with a 12-page booklet with liner notes containing the band's history.
