"Àmor" is a pure rush of passion and irresistibly sexy! The burning pulse of the sun's nuclear fire scorching the desert. The smooth sliding of glistening skin over other skin in a throbbing rhythm. The swelling hum of motion in a mass of bodies. KLIMT 1918 capture many such fleeting moments in time and preserve them through cascading walls of sound and the elegant drone of guitars. The Italian's fifth album, "Àmor", represents a climax of their acclaimed previous work into a most melancholic, sensual, and majestic collection of captivating music. "Àmor" was born out of silence, solitude and social distancing. Yet as a deliberate artistic counterpoint, KLIMT 1918 decided to have all their new songs revolve around carnality, ardour, physical contact between bodies, and the urgent, compelling feelings that keep people awake at night. As a crowning glory, KLIMT 1918 were artistically knighted when the legendary Tony Doogan accepted to mix 'Àmor' and Frank Arkwright (Abbey Road Studios) added his mastering genius. Both renowned engineers have previously joined forces to collaborate with such acts as MOGWAI and SNOW PATROL, and their portfolios also include such greats as JOY DIVISION, COLDPLAY, and OASIS among many others. Although it took plenty of time, diligence, and energy, "Àmor" proves with every second that the album is more than worth this long wait. KLIMT 1918 take their raw emotionality expressed in dynamic, glowing soundscapes rather than fixed structures and calculated hooks to another peak!

"Eight years after 'Eonian', DIMMU BORGIR returns with 'Grand Serpent Rising', a thirteen-track album that is both relentless and remarkably diverse. The title itself symbolizes renewal: for the band, the serpent represents transformation, knowledge, and liberation—a necessary shedding after more than thirty years in the industry. From the introduction 'Tridentium' to the explosive 'Ascent', the band confirms that it has lost none of its intensity or aura. Over nearly an hour of music, the album showcases majestic power, blending the raw energy of 90s Norwegian black metal with the mastery gained over the decades. With 'Grand Serpent Rising', DIMMU BORGIR delivers an imposing and ambitious work, driven by an intact inspiration and a vision more grandiose than ever."

Following the atmospheric and introspective journey of their previous works, this new record marks a clear evolution in the band’s sound, embracing a more sinuous and emotionally driven approach.

“Memories in Fade” expands the band’s black-doom foundation with layers of ’90s alternative rock, ambient textures and neo-folk influences, creating a complex yet cohesive sonic narrative. Unlike conventional song structures, the album seeks a storytelling quality, where each track contributes to a broader, immersive experience while remaining grounded in the project’s artistic identity.

In a year which marks the 40th anniversary since the initial formation - under the moniker of Black Death - of what would subsequently grow into influential genre legends, 2026 marks the return of the imperishable Norwegian duo of Fenriz & Nocturno Culto for their new opus of high calibre old metal, under the banner of ‘Pre-Historic Metal’. As Fenriz himself proclaims of the title’s symbolic origin, “Prehistoric is a loose term. I just figure it’s our VIBE, our take on things & it’s more a statement that we use old style to create something new”.

‘Pre-Historic Metal’ contains eight tracks of primal epics & gargantuan riffs with organic sound & the ever-present permeating spirit of the 70’s & 80’s, for a new continuation of the mastery witnessed on 2024’s ‘It Beckons Us All’. This next chapter in Darkthrone’s extensive & ongoing catalogue presents a vast odyssey through the sonic landscapes of Thrash, Black, Heavy & Doom Metal &, adorned with a punishing & “in your face” guitar presence, Darkthrone stirs the cauldron of savage creativity with a nod to the writing methods which were indicative of their earlier works of the late 80’s, but with a more refined craft.

'Pre-Historic Metal' was recorded at Chaka Khan Studios, Oslo, with production work conducted by Ole Øvstedal, Silje Høgevold & Mads Luis. Mastering was carried out by Jack Control at Enormous Door, & Maor Appelbaum Mastering.

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.
