“Music for me, is rarely complete,” says GODFLESH mastermind Justin Broadrick, “but it has to reach a point where enough is enough. Creatively, there has to be self-discipline. One has to end it.”

Broadrick is primarily referring to the nebulous process of writing and arranging songs into their various potential shapes, but he could just as easily be describing GODFLESH’s imminent conclusion. Just three years after the hypnotic crunch of Purge, 25 years after an uncertain hiatus that nearly scuttled the band, and 38 years since GODFLESH’s inception, Broadrick and bassist-at-arms Ben Green set out to mercilessly crush this cold world with their tenth and penultimate album, this year’s Decay.

“Decay was born from the same sessions as Purge,” Broadrick declares of the new record’s six tracks. “It was one huge pool of songs. I picked what I felt was appropriate for what I wanted to achieve with Purge, with the intention of releasing the songs that didn't fit as a new album within a year of Purge being released. Unfortunately, two years passed whilst considering external labels, so that I didn't have to self-release GODFLESH anymore, but it took an awful lot of time to establish a comfortable home for me. The recordings were done, but as usual for me, I did change a lot of stuff once I came back to it.”

Now, GODFLESH is ready to unleash an even bolder, bleaker series of sounds in Decay. These songs arrive shortly after Broadrick released a public statement about major abdominal surgery he underwent earlier this year. “Fortunately, all of the recordings for Decay were completed long before the surgery, vocals included… although the back end of a couple of songs were recorded with the hernia itself, and that was a struggle. I was already aware that the GODFLESH shout, so to speak, was exacerbating the hernia greatly, as was every GODFLESH performance in the lead-up to the surgery once the hernia appeared, and the hernia was mostly caused by year upon year of shouting in GODFLESH. The album was mixed post-surgery, and while I was still in some pain and considerable discomfort, but fortunately GODFLESH is generally me expressing my pain, albeit [usually] mental, philosophical and existential, whereas this was physical pain.”

While the middle of the record pulses with five-minute hate-grooves, Broadrick credits the slime-wracked opener “Master and Slave” and crawling closer “Consume Me” with Decay’s true conceptual thrust. “The bookends of Decay are the most important pieces to me. They say it all, so to speak; the album could have been just those two songs alone – the duration of them is half of the total album!”

As GODFLESH's active tenure comes to a close, Broadrick expresses gratitude that it was ever his vessel to use as he willed. “It expresses my pain, and I’ve put my body and soul into this expression for the majority of my existence. I feel quite lucky, because Godflesh is now physically impossible for me, rendering it useless. I now wish to move out of its constraints, move on creatively with heavy/ugly music to new ground.”

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

"Esoterik" finds Jason Köhnen's BONG-RA continuing the alchemical evolution that has defined his most adventurous work. A spiritual successor to 2025's "Black Noise", the record delves deeper into the shadows and luminescence of the occult, expanding the ritualistic atmospheres explored on "Antediluvian" (2018) and "Meditations" (2022) while forging a harsher, more industrial sonic architecture.

Luminal Blue Smoke

FLUISTERAARS return with their sixth full-length, Jacht der Mysteriën — three towering epics centered around the pursuit of the unknown.

Drawing from local legends, mysterious lights in the woods, and close observation of their immediate surroundings, the album was conceived as a live and complete band album and captured in a single take with longtime producer T. Cochrane.

Reamped through the hollow cylinder of an abandoned water tower, the record drifts between presence and disappearance — immersive, urgent, and elusive.

Skuggor, the solo project of M., an Australian multi-instrumentalist based in northern Sweden, draws its essence from the meeting point between the physical and the transcendental. Deep forests and snow-covered terrain are not merely backdrops, but gateways – spaces where hypnotic states and introspection take hold. On “The Expanse”, this duality comes into sharp focus: the beauty of the northern landscape set against an undercurrent of solitude and quiet desolation.

The foundation was laid somewhere along the long, winding road between M.’s home in Moskosel and the Nordvis headquarters in Arvidsjaur – a woodland stretch largely untouched by modern intrusions. Written to accompany that journey, “The Expanse” takes shape as a series of impressions formed by both the beauty and the unforgiving nature of the environment. While echoes of Burzum, Agalloch, Urfaust, and Drudkh can be sensed throughout, Skuggor reshapes these influences into something distinctly its own.

Musically, the album moves between organic synthesiser passages and harsh, fuzz-laden guitars, with vocals that feel improvised and immediate – less bound to language than to emotion. The result is fluid and instinctive, allowing each composition to emerge as a natural extension of atmosphere rather than rigid structure. Minimalism here is mainly expressed through restraint: repetition, pacing, and subtle shifts that draw the listener deeper into the sound.

This winter & historical Black Metal is true Marchigian Black Metal!
“Picenum (True Marchigian Black Metal Renaissance)“ is the natural continuation of “Fra Li Monti Sibillini”, expanding its concept to the entire Marche region (the title Picenum indicates the ancient name for a large part of this region). The album is set mostly in the late Middle Ages but also at the beginning of the Renaissance (here highlighted in its darker sides, experienced through the darkness of my region and the places where I was born).
After a brief intro about the region’s ancient origins, the album is divided into 3 parts:
• The first is dedicated to the history and the very dark legends of the region Marche: the Da Varano Lords who rebelled against the Church by joining the Cursed League in 1375; the history and legend of the Rocca di Pitino (Pitino Fortress) and its deconsecrated church and cemetery; the history and legend of the very dark Roccaccia (The Ugly Fortress) and its warlord necromancer, a servant of the devil.
• The second is dedicated to the folklore and legends of my region: lu lupu mannà (the Marchigian werewolf), the Mazzamurello (a dark Marchigian sprite), the Sdrega (the Marchigian witch), before returning once again to the Sibilline Mountains... In this part, Hesperus’ grandmother’s voice (R.I.P.) narrates these folklore legends a couple of times (she knew quite a few). Here a bigger amount of Marchigian dialect than italian (more than Fra li Monti Sibillini)
• The third and longest part is, in fact, a continuation that closes the circle with the previous album, and the part is “Ritorno fra li monti Sibillini” (Return to the Sibilline Mountains), with two tracks focusing on the goat-fairies and the Sibylla, and another two tracks that speak of the geographical novel of the Chevalier De la Sale, a real historical figure who was tasked with exploring the Sibilline Mountains and understanding what was inside the Sibylla’s cave (thus, not a knight from an epic poem like in the previous album); he truly met the inhabitants of Montemonaco (Mons Daemoniacus) who led him to the vestibule of the Sibylla’s cave (on the summit of Monte Sibilla)
and told him numerous stories of those who entered the cave, including that of a German knight who returned because he was not forgiven by the Church and remained there... forever (the last track: the final 12’ suite).
Stylistically, the album has many similarities with the previous record (a Mediaval Black Metalin the vein of ‘90s) but adds some Renaissance parts and some ‘80s proto Black Metal passages.

As you will notice, there are folk/ambient interludes as in the previous album, but they are not on separate tracks; they are at the end of each track (incorporated into the tracks even if they appear in the tracklist).
