If classic outputs from DARKTHRONE, ENSLAVED, EMPEROR or ISENGARD et al. make your blood boil, you should make sure to purchase HERSIR`s album and immerse yourself in its Northern Black Metal excellence. Despite having already been incepted in 2016 by Grim Vindkall who is primarily known for his band DOMGÅRD, Swedish HERSIR have up until this point kept a rather low profile. With only three demos to their name – none of which released physically – the horde has remained a rather obscure entity. Once released, chances are that the sheer quality of HERSIR`s first full-length effort Hateful Draugar From The Underground will rectify that situation in no time, though. Completely devoid of unnecessary gimmicks of any sorts, HERSIR are all content and no show. For a change, everything – the well-written lyrics dealing with Nordic spirituality of the shadow side, the music, the visual presentation – feels genuine and without any infantile pretence. Their very aptly titled album convinces with hateful and majestic Black Metal of a distinctively northern nature. The vocals brimming with contempt and savagery are one of the highlights of the full-length. Vocalist Haugbúi’s rather low, raspy tone and pestilent delivery seem like the perfect fit for HERSIR’s rather simple and stripped-down compositions. Overtly complex structures are left out to augment the war-like quality of the recording and in favour of conjuring epic atmospheres often built upon melodies stemming from the old Nordic tradition. The impact of some of the memorable riffs is further increased by the sporadic inclusion of keyboards. Overall, this album is the real deal and deserves to be attentively listened to by anyone into genuinely dark Black Metal.

Age of Eternal Night is a dark and immersive concept album that continues the story of the first album: 

The nameless pilgrim who descended into the darkness of an ancient tomb in the desert sands of Sumer - thirsting for forbidden knowledge and vampyric ascension. As he ultimately finds what he seeks and by the completion of profane and horrific rituals he finally transforms into an immortal ruler of darkness, blood and death. Breaking out of the forsaken depths of the netherrealm he unleashes unspoken horrors upon mankind - creating the primordial vampyric coven under the light of a blood moon. A

s the Gates of Ganzir open the death bells of Cuutha toll over blood stained sands - ushering in a new era of bloodshed and terror - an age of Vampyric Dominance - an Age of Eternal Night!

The album was once again recorded, mixed, and mastered by Mario Dahmen / Liquid Aether Audio. With the raw intensity and epic structure already present in their previous works, Age of Eternal Night stands out with an even denser atmosphere and a refined sonic balance. The production captures both the ferocious power of their Black Metal roots and the majestic, dark melodic grandeur that defines SUMERIAN TOMBS. Prepare to unlock the seal and embrace the Age of Eternal Night.

In the frozen depths of Finland's iciest lakes, …AND OCEANS emerged, fusing symphonic black metal with avant-garde twists and splashes of industrial chaos. For decades, they've been the torchbearers of a genre that defies boundaries - constantly reinventing their sound with each new album.

Their latest full-length, ‘The Regeneration Itinerary’, is a transcendent expedition into the duality of light and dark. Recorded in the halls of SoundSpiral Audio and mixed to perfection at Necromorbus Studio, this album weaves a tale as old as time yet refreshingly modern. With tracks like the ethereal, techno-laden "Inertiae" and the haunting "Förnyelse i Tre Akter", Mathias Lillmåns' lyrical prowess unfurls across Timo Kontio's and Antti Simonen's masterful compositions, each note dripping with existential ponderings and razor-sharp riffs. Imagine being embraced by a Siberian storm while contemplating the cosmos- that’s the electrifying impact these songs deliver. A standout, "Prophetical Mercury Implement", offers a fervent glimpse into their musicianship, promising an aural journey that’s as profound as it is raw. From the melodic "I am Coin, I am Two" to the relentless drive of "The Fire in Which We Burn", this itinerary navigates the delicate balance where shadows kiss the dawn
