IMBOLC third album "Sette Cornici di Purificazione" displays a sound and style that ranges from classic up-tempo Melodic Black Metal to passages featuring classical-acoustic guitars, very often supported by synths inspired by '70s and '90s horror films, with a surprising result of various influences in a pretty much old school formula.

The riffing is still a powerful backbone of the IMBOLC sound, supported by a notable melancholy and, musically speaking, a mixture of second-wave Melodic Black Metal and Post-Black Metal in the vein of Agalloch and first-era Satyricon. The themes are once again centered on inner suffering, the discomfort of everyday life and the worthlessness of human beings, once again with references to the old horror movies.

IMBOLC line-up features members of the notable Occult Black Metal band Darkend, along with relevant italian Death Metal bands such as Demiurgon and Unbirth.

Eleven years after their last album, the Turin-based ADVERSAM, a historical staple of the Italian Black Metal scene, return with "Daimon".

Best known for their acclaimed 1999 debut "Animadverte" (Scarlet Records), ADVERSAM's force is all but spent: with "Daimon", the band confirms its ability to evolve a style rooted in classic Black Metal while constantly regenerating through modern and original insights.

The resulting sound is often suggestive in its expression, yet consistently fierce and visceral. Rhythmic speed remains the cornerstone of ADVERSAM's style, expertly balanced by atmospheric, gloomy synths and elevated by a meticulous technical attention to details.

Thematically, the lyrics of "Daimon" — inspired by the reflections of C.G. Jung and the intuitions of G. Rol — delve into the meaning of existence and the dark nature of humanity. The album questions the essence of evil and explores the vast potential of the mind and consciousness.

Aggression, freezing atmospheres, razor-sharp melodic tremolo picking, and galloping thrash rhythms: these are the elements on which SCYTHE OF MEPHISTO build their wall of sound.

The architecture of the compositions on “Till Life Do Us Part” relies on guitar harmonies that evoke a sense of majestic melancholy, often transitioning into sinister soundscapes; the percussion maintains a relentless onslaught of blast beats and sophisticated fills, providing a high-energy backbone. Vocally, the performance delivers a venomous, high-pitched rasp that cuts through the mix.

Each track feels like a calculated descent into a moonlit abyss, where the songwriting prioritizes memorable hooks and triumphant crescendos over mindless noise. Ultimately, the synergy of these elements captures a distinct sound and aesthetic that remains both sophisticated and unapologetically extreme.

Following the tradition of legendary Swedish Black Metal bands, SCYTHE OF MEPHISTO channel the savage energy of the underground into “Till Life Do Us Part,” balancing relentless, aggressive Swedish Black Metal with atmospheric interludes and memorable clean passages.

It’s been six long years since Sojourner released their latest album, Premonitions. Since then, a lot has happened: the band went through lineup changes, signed back to Avantgarde Music and sort of spent a good portion of these years resting, building up ideas and inspiration for what had to come next.

 Gateways is the result of such rest, a collection of seven new tracks, including “Epitaphs”, the digital-only single released in late 2024. And let’s just say that Sojourner is back at full force. The signature sound that made Mike Lamb and Emilio Crespo’s band stand out since their beginnings, over a decade ago, is still there and now taken to new heights.

 Sojourner’s dreamy, folky atmopsheres are still here, now with the powerful addition of Heike Langhan’s (ex-Draconian, Remina) beautiful vocals. At the same, Gateways doesn’t spare speed and fury, with fast up-tempos and monolithic riffs.

 As guitarist and songwriter Mike Lamb states, “Gateways is a labour of love written over the last few years of outward silence, harnessing the soul of everything we've done before while carrying the band forward toward new horizons and opening the way for what comes next.”

 Sojourner’s fourth studio album will be released via Avantgarde Music on CD and LP on July 10th, 2026, right on time to support the band’s first three live gigs after years of absence from the stage.

Info: Invernoir literally bring back to life the best '90s gothic doom with this stellar new album. Aimin' for Oblivion comprises seven tracks that will make dark metal hearts bleed with that irresistible balance between light and shadows. Invernoir's Aimin' for Oblivion is unmissable for fans of old-school Anathema, Katatonia, and My Dying Bride.

Limited edition of 150 copies. Coming in a gatefold with insert.
Intense razor-sharp Swedish Black Metal attack!
Formed in Stockholm in 2016, Flykt emerged as an essential creative outlet for those involved and as a sign of defiance amid decay,
operating from the periphery rather than the center.
In 2019, the band released its debut full-length album, “Charnel Heart”, through Folter Records. Later the same year, Flykt followed up with
the two-track EP “Through the Earth and Through the Sun”. Since then, Flykt has continued its work away from view, shaping the material
for its second full-length album.
In 2025, the band signed with Hammerheart Records. Their second full length album “Sinister Strain” is set for release in the summer of 2026.

Graveir, forged in the oppressive underground of Brisbane in 2014, deliver a uniquely unorthodox take on black metal—melding dissonant, riff-driven weight with warped, unsettling melody. Known for their intense, unease-soaked live shows and uncompromising sound, the band continues to carve their own path.

The Festering Triad, their third album, is a bleak vision of societal decay and corrupted power. Across eight tracks, bile-fuelled aggression surges through anxiety-ridden drums, convulsing guitars, and serpentine basslines—forming a suffocating, venomous descent into rot.

"Gloom" is the debut full-length album by the American band Macabre, released in 1989. The album has earned the status of one of the most important and original releases of the death/grind scene.

“Gloom” lasts only 25 minutes in its standard version and is characterized by extraordinary intensity and a raw sound, as well as very fast tempos, aggressive, thrash metal riffs, and "dirty," punk-influenced vocals (the band was heavily inspired by the early hardcore scene).

The lyrics describe real-life crimes and serial killers but often with a dose of dark specific sense of humour, which has become a trademark of Macabre's work over the years.
