Avantgarde Music is proud to announce their collaboration with Saidan, an Eastern horror-themed band from Nashville, TN.

Born in 2020, Saidan released three studio albums so far, mixing the weird, over-the-top aesthetic of visual kei with fast, melodic riffing in the vein of labelmates Moonlight Sorcery.

Fangdriller: Scars Beneath Memories Wrist is the fourth studio album born from the minds of multi-instrumentalist Splatterpvnk and drummer Hundosai, a new chapter in the narrative concept that links together all Saidan releases. In the band’s own words, Fangdriller follows the story of a student named Junko, depressed and miles away from the people she loves. In the depths of her isolation, she finds comfort in a mysterious cult called Ethereal Blood. But unbeknownst to Junko, her anguished seclusion has made her the perfect victim.

Second pressing limited to 200 copies on black or marble 180g heavy vinyl, includes double sided insert and pvc sleeve. Mastered for vinyl by Greg Chandler at Priory Recording Studios.

Todomal are back with "A Greater Good", their new studio album. The Spanish duo formed by Christopher B. Wildman and Javier Fernández (Asgaroth, Nexus 6, The Heretic, Dejadeath, etc.) bring a collection of "dark songs" (as they like to define it), which began with the seeds planted in "Ultracrepidarian," their debut album, has evolved into a complex, dense, and unclassifiable album that takes us on a journey through somber landscapes, existential doubts, tragicomedy, and spiritual and personal unrest.

"A Greater Good" poses challenging questions, wrapped in musicthat is sometimes dark and at other times luminous, spanning from slow-tempo to progressive rock to quasi-mystical litanies. The path they embarked upon with their debut album, leading to desolate landscapes and the emptiness of the plateau, has continued into darker territories, reminiscent of tenebrist altarpieces, where doubts about what is right or wrong, what we do in this world to earn redemption, or why we have a nefarious tendency to destroy what we love are depicted against a smoldering forest.

The journey continues, despite the obstacles.

"A Greater Good" boasts ambitious production to accommodate all its elements, like pieces of a giant mosaic. Vocal harmonies, acoustic elements, and occasional orchestral arrangements blend with serpentine opera-rock pieces, making their way by clawing through the earth.

HULDER is a dark black metal project from the United States, driven by the creative partnership of Hulder and Necreon, whose three albums to date have steadily drawn the project toward more expansive and collaborative territory. ‘Verbolgen’, released jointly by Season of Mist and 20 Buck Spin, marks a decisive turn: the first HULDER record on which Necreon steps fully into his role as co-leader rather than session contributor.
Rooted in ancient nature worship, ancestral rite, and the shadows of pre-Christian tradition, ‘Verbolgen’ moves through nine tracks that trade in both the severity and the strange, wintry beauty that have always defined HULDER 's sound. The writing has grown more layered here, drawing on a wider palette of instrumentation: hurdy gurdy and additional keys from Keld bring an almost processional weight to certain passages, while Ianuaria's session flute drifts through the album like smoke across still water. Two drummers divide the record between them, Vapula and Vrolok each bringing their own character to their respective tracks, and the sum of it is a rhythm section that feels alive to the album's shifts in mood and tempo. The mix, handled by Ahti Kortelainen at Tico Tico Studio in Finland, gives the record an earthy, resonant quality that suits its themes of blood, soil, and the settling of old debts.
Even the visual identity signals a new chapter: the cover art, painted by Morrigan, is her first work created for a metal band in nearly three decades, with an updated logo crafted by Jannicke Wiese Hansen. Three of the album's songs are sung in Flemish, lending ‘Verbolgen’ a peculiar, incantatory dimension that sets it apart from anything in HULDER's back catalogue.

For fans of BATHORY, DISSECTION, MOONSORROW.

Limited edition gatefold black vinyl & LP booklet

Heretics of the Black Metal genre and the Kings of USBM, WOLVES IN THE THRONE ROOM have returned with sharpened teeth. Their new album “Estuary” carries the hallmark of their unyielding dedication to the physical craft and analog production techniques, executed with zero cut corners. After more than twenty years, the pioneers of Cascadian Black Metal have neither withered, rested, nor resorted to recycling past glories. They continue to rise with unparalleled strength, and “Estuary” is their most ferocious and genre-bending record to date.
WOLVES IN THE THRONE ROOM embody nature as active participants of the current, bypassing the confines of a musical landscape which trends towards homogenization. Massive percussion and seething gothic guitars wipe the listener’s psyche clear of all stagnation, transforming it into a conduit for evolution and renewal. Rich with alchemical and archetypal imagery, the record operates like eagles and wolves descending upon desolation and entropy, activating the dormant domain with magic and the lethal essence of virility.
The bulk of the album was produced and recorded at the band’s own Owl Lodge studio in Olympia, Washington, with drums tracked by Nicholas Wilbur at The Unknown (a converted former church in Anacortes, Washington).

“The Storm” offers a first glimpse of Armagedda’s forthcoming fifth album, STORM OF EVIL: two new recordings pressed into seven-inch form, pairing the title track with the exclusive “The Sermon Never Heard”. 

Following “Svindeldjup ättestup” (2020), Armagedda once again turns toward older bones. These songs draw a line back through the torn austerity of the band’s origins, the heavier, death-inflected pulse that emerged around “Only True Believers”, and the sickly spiritual oppression later perfected on “Ond spiritism”. Yet the result is not retrospective. It is a further descent, carried by the same adversarial will under a harsher and more immediate guise.

Conjured at Necromorbus Studio in October 2025 alongside Tore Stjerna, “Storm of Evil” stands as a premonition of what is to come: grave-bound, accusatory black metal with the stench of old death in its breath. No mourners. No prayers. Only the sermon never heard.

Shadow Records (distributed and marketed by Regain Records) proudly presents the reissue of Sorhin's debut EP, Skogsgriftens rike on LP and CD formats. Originally released in 1996, Skogsgriftens rike marks the beginning of Sorhin's journey into the pantheon of Swedish black metal, laying the foundation for the cult full-length albums “I det glimrande mörkrets djup” and “Apokalypsens ängel”. Even at this early stage, the band's identity was fully formed, a cold, evocative and unmistakably Nordic vision that would become their enduring hallmark. Nearly thirty years on, Skogsgriftens rike still stands as a monument to the cold majesty of 1990s Swedish black metal, untouched by time, uncompromising in spirit, and as haunting as the northern wilderness that inspired it. Formats: 12" vinyl LP (black vinyl) -Sturdy 300gsm vinyl-sleeve with bronze pantone print -Vinyl insert -Double-sided A2 poster -Limited to 400 copies on black vinyl -CD jewelcase -8 page booklet
