'An Undying Love For A Burning World' is the first new release from Neurosis in a decade, and a potent statement of intent and rebirth - one that marks the first new steps of resolve and resilience.

'An Undying Love For A Burning World' is an epic album of colossal hypnotism - beautiful, fearsome and utterly compelling in a way that only Neurosis can be. Aaron Turner (Sumac, Isis) joins the band on vocals and guitar, a name whose legacy is intertwined with the band’s own and a true kindred spirit.

Neurosis have never been afraid of change, and here they embrace endless regeneration, surrendering to the emotional exorcism through heaviness and distortion that their music incites. Just as the universe tends towards balance, Neurosis’ cacophony of noise, rhythm and dissonance always resolves towards moments of beauty. The addition of Turner's powerful vocals and wildly creative and unhinged approach to guitar proves to be a vital force as Neurosis find themselves again at the mercy of evolution and expression.

The album was recorded by Scott Evans (Kowloon Walled City, Sumac, and Great Falls) at Studio Litho in Seattle during three weekends this winter, and mixed in three days just six weeks before release at Evan's Antisleep Audio in Oakland.

Nel 2026, anno che segna il 40° anniversario dalla formazione iniziale sotto il nome di Black Death di quella che sarebbe poi diventata una delle leggende più influenti del genere, torna l’intramontabile duo norvegese composto da Fenriz e Nocturno Culto con una nuova opera di alto livello dedicata all’old metal, all’insegna del “Pre-Historic Metal”.
“Pre-Historic Metal” contiene otto brani caratterizzati da epopee primordiali e riff colossali, con un suono organico e lo spirito onnipresente degli anni ’70 e ’80, per una nuova continuazione della maestria già dimostrata in “It Beckons Us All” del 2024. Un nuovo capitolo che presenta una vasta odissea attraverso i paesaggi sonori del Thrash, Black, Heavy e Doom Metal e, impreziosito da una presenza chitarristica punitiva e aggressiva, i Darkthrone mescolano il calderone della creatività selvaggia con un cenno ai metodi di scrittura che erano indicativi dei loro primi lavori della fine degli anni ’80, ma con una maestria più raffinata.
Questa edizione di “Pre-Historic Metal” è disponibile in formato CD con custodia e un libretto di dodici pagine, vinile nero, vinile viola marble in edizione limitata e cofanetto in edizione limitata, contenente: vinile esclusivo da 180 g con effetto splatter, copertina apribile e grafica alternativa esclusiva realizzata da Maciej Kamuda, edizione esclusiva in cassetta, edizione in CD, libretto con un'intervista a Harald Fossberg sulla realizzazione di “Pre-Historic Metal” e 2 poster.

One of the most underrated pearls from the Swiss underground scene, Sadness. Formed in 1989 and released two demos and three full lengths from 1991 to 1998. Inspired by the occult Hellhammer and early Celtic Frost and other first waves black metal bands. On the other hand heavily rooted in doom / death metal, and later on heavily influenced by gothic metal. Debut album Ames de Marbre is the perfect blend of doom, death, black and gothic metal. This re-issue has a total new designed artwork and insert and demo Oedipus (1992) as bonus.

Including 12-page 10″ booklet and double-sided A2 poster.

The LPs are limited to 666 copies in total.

Warning!
If you discovered IMMORTAL after 1995, this record might not be for you.
These recordings capture the band during the 1993 Fuck Christ Tour and the 1995 Battle Of The Ages Tour — raw fan-recordings, unpolished, and unapologetically real. No sterile soundboard perfection. No studio correction. Just the unfiltered force of a band in its purest form.
These recordings breathe the spirit of a time when Black Metal was still young, dangerous, and defiantly outside the mainstream. A time before trends, before marketing, before compromise. When the scene was built on tape trading, dedication, and cold conviction.
This is a document of an era that will never return — a glimpse into the formative years of a band that reshaped Black Metal from the shadows.

Batushka's 2019 Opus Returns: The Liturgy of Death Re-released!

Back on Black is proud to announce the comprehensive reissue of Hospodi (Church Slavonic for "Lord"), the second full-length album from the Polish black metal phenomenon, Batushka. Initially released in 2019, Hospodi represents a more polished, melodic, and theatrical evolution of the band's signature, ritualistic sound.

Based on the Eastern Orthodox "Liturgy of Death" and traditional funeral rites, the album is a thematic journey through death and judgment. This reissue brings back the ten-track masterpiece, which blends traditional black metal (tremolo riffs, ferocious blast beats) with haunting choirs, atmospheric ambient interludes, and profound Slavic chants.

Hospodi was lauded for its dramatic production, and this reissue shines a light on key tracks like the atmospheric opener "Wozglas," the rocking-yet-menacing "Wieczernia," and the powerful closer "Liturgiya".
