WORKING TOGETHER FOR OUR PRIVACY

Band:WOLD
Album:WORKING TOGETHER FOR OUR PRIVACY
Label:Profound Lore
Format:CD
Genre:Black Metal

Not only are Canada’s WOLD known to be one of the most bizarre entities that have surfaced within the black metal scene, but they are considered to be the most bizarre, unique, and ultimately extreme band that has hailed from Canadian soil. Mainly, there has been no band in Canada that has presented itself such as WOLD have.

At only three lengthy tracks, “Working Together For Our Privacy” presents itself as WOLD’s first instrumental release, meaning the focus of this ritual is the looping noise fragments pieced together to create a flurry of blizzard-like sonic madness. Even though the album has no vocals, “Working Together For Our Privacy” can present itself as not only the weirdest, strangest, and most odd WOLD listening experience (imagine that!), but it could very well be the most intense and unbearable WOLD listening experience yet. An intense excruciating exercise in pure audial hypnosis.

 

 

CRYPT BORN AND TETHERED TO RUIN

Band:VASAELETH
Album:CRYPT BORN AND TETHERED TO RUIN
Label:Profound Lore
Format:CD
Genre:Death Metal

Hailing from Georgia/Texas, VASAELETH are a new act which features members from two of the most promising new U.S. black metal acts, namely Legions Of Astaroth and Dagon. Follwing their well received demo and their “Adorned And Iridescent” EP, both which were in limited quantities sold out instantly and just these two releases alone cemented VASAELETH’s position within the elite of the underground U.S. death metal scene, VASAELETH have delivered their ultra guttural, brutal, and doomy debut album “Crypt Born And Tethered To Ruin”. Conjuring the ancient vibes summoned by such legendary acts as Incantation, Autopsy, and Mortician, the death metal that VASAELETH deliver is a reminder of the old-school glory days when brutal and raw guttural death metal ruled supreme in the early ‘90s where albums like “Onward To Golgotha” and “Mental Funeral” laid down the foundations of this ugly side of the death metal coin.

For fans of INCANTATION, AUTOPSY, MORTICIAN, and PORTAL

 

 

ALL BEES TO THE SEA.

Band:TAINT
Album:ALL BEES TO THE SEA.
Label:Destructure
Format:CD
Genre:Metal

Taint have continued to forge their unique and enigmatic brand of heavy rock, since their 1994 inception in South Wales. Their debut fulllength ‘The Ruin Of Nova Roma’ (2005) and follow up ‘Secrets And Lies’ (2007) on Lee Dorian’s Rise Above records established them as fully paid contenders in the broader spectrum of heavy weight bands. Cutting their teeth in the early ‘90s d.i.y scene, Taint have retained their hardcore pugnacity while exploring more progressive avenues, thanks to their childhood influences of all things classic rock.

The South Wales power-trio have infultrated every other corner of the UK/EU, with headlining tours reaching as far as Scandinavia, Portugal,Macedonia, Greece and everywhere in between. Continuing to hone their craft has paid off, seeing them honour prestigious invitations to play the Hellfest, SWR, Roadburn and Damnation Festivals. Outings with Maryland's forefathers of groove Clutch, and a personally invited support to Oakland legends of heavy Neurosis has put them in ideal company, and furthered their vision to those lucky and chosen few.With ‘All Bees To The Sea’ Taint happed upped their ante again, with four barnstorming classics. Culminating with the 12-minute title track, and the electricly charged live set from Taint’s Roadburn 2008 festival, you’ll agree that this release will stand alone in it’s own right.

"There should be quite a buzz surrounding Taint as ‘All Bees To The Sea’ demonstrates they’re one of the best bands in the UK right now." ROCK SOUND UK 9/10

"A half hour of spanking new jams from arguably-too-slept-on British metal gents Taint" - TERRORIZER 8/10

Album:THE CORPSE OF REBIRTH
Label:BURNING WORLD
Format:LP BOX SET

Few are the ones in the current Black Metal scene who have the guts and, above all, the creativity to push the boundaries of the genre.

The four sorcerers in A Forest of Stars conjured the souls of their fellow Victorian era occultists chose to make this album an atemporal, unique and spellbinding one, with influences ranging from progressive music to raw black metal and sharing a similar artistic framework with bands such as Ved Buens Ende, Solefald and In The Woods.

EIGHTHUNDRED MILES

Band:BLOWBACK
Album:EIGHTHUNDRED MILES
Label:Transubstans
Format:CD
Genre:Stoner/Doom/Occult/Sludge Metal

Having already established a good reputation with their 2 previous albums (one split album and one full-length), the second full-length "800 miles" by Örebro's Blowback is nothing less than a fist of pure 70's groove and attitude hardrock right in the face of the listener. Recorded in Unisound by Dan Swanö, Blowback gets a sound most 70's bands would kill for, a thick full sound that maintains a special feel that few bands today can manage. Some may call it stoner some may call it classic hardrock we just call it damn good high octane rock'n roll! - A must for fans of Witchcraft, Electric Wizard and Graveyard.

PRIMER

Band:DRAG THE RIVER
Album:PRIMER
Label:VIVA HATE
Format:CD
Genre:Alt-Country / Americana

Drag The River are one of those bands that manage to transcend the confines and boundaries of the musical world and become more like a legend, the kind of band you hear during an overnight roadtrip while driving down the interstate in a sleepy carful of close friends rather than the glossy pages of industry tabloids. You and your buddy are riding shotgun at 4 AM while everyone else snores in the backseat, and while rifling through someone’s collection you find this CD and decide to throw it in. Months later, you’re completely hooked. There’s something about their haunting croon and fuzzed-out Telecasters that make everything fit together so perfectly, hitting that same elusive mix of rock n’ roll and alt-country that The Replacements defined and so many others have tried to cop. Ingrained with a rigorous work ethic over their years in cult punk superheroes Armchair Martian and ALL, they found themselves releasing a constant assortment of 7”s and splits, many of which are now long-lost and out of print, all of which are gathered here on one disc. As with many collection records, this disc provides a fascinating glimpse into their earlier years, as one can observe how rough-around-the-edges demos and misplaced riffs were hammered into acclaimed albums. Also included are more recent tracks that guide first-time listeners on an introduction to one of the most cult-like followings in underground music.

 

 

INGENUITY

Band:REACTIONARIES
Album:INGENUITY
Label:Deranged
Format:VINYL LP
Genre:Punk / Hardcore

Featuring ex DEADSTOP members. Recorded over the span of close to half a year during late 2008 and early 2009, "Ingenuity" proves that there still are bands with the balls to do things on their own terms, no matter what self proclaimed connaisseurs have proclaimed as being the "new cool thing". Drawing from a wide range of influences, this is the kind of record that music lovers will be able to sink their teeth into, no matter what their vinyl collection looks like. From the haunting, heartbroken yet still somehow surprisingly upbeat "Fool For You", to the groovy, riff heavy "Changes", The Reactionaries made sure every ounce of sweat and every bit of soul transpired into their songs. The result? I guess one could say it's something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue. Soulful, dynamic, fuzzy garage punk. Or maybe it's not. Other than crancking up "Ingenuity" real loud, the only way to really find out and truly discover The Reactonaries is to see them in a live setting : Those who've seen them on their string of shows with The Damned, or any other show for that matter, will surely testify to this.

Label:Eisenwald

Genre:Black Metal

Avantgarde Dark Metal from sweden, featuring members of ARMAGEDDA (rip) and BERGRAVEN. This unconventional brainchild out of sweden still borrows from the Black Metal range its members bring with it, however it surprises with crafty obscure and complex music, rich with songs and instrumentation. An unconventional and disturbing travel - easily drifting away from the usual metal genres. " Faceless Phenomena" means nothing that we can foresee, densly layered music, moving skillfully between fragility and powerful outbursts, graceful melodic and twisted imaginery. Impeccable individual riffs nail deep the mood, let you grow and also fall with the alluring songs. Try to imagine a mix of VEB BUENS ENDE, CODE and BERGRAVEN!

YET SO FAR

Band:REVELATION
Album:YET SO FAR
Label:Shadow Kingdom
Format:CD
Genre:Stoner/Doom/Occult/Sludge Metal

Revelation's 3rd full length album has been out of print for quite some time now. This album features Dennis Cornelius and Jim Hunter along side the staple of Revelation, Steve Branagan. This may be Revelation's most accessible album to date. Longtime fans of Revelation know what to expect, but newer fans on the fence should certainly check this album out as it's a great album to start out with in their catalogue. Unfortunately the band did not have any bonus tracks for this re-issue. All of the bonus material was released on the "Frozen Masque" CD by The Miskatonic Foundation back in 2004. This album is fully re-mastered with a nice booklet with a band write up, lyrics, and tons of old band photos to cherish.

 

 

FOR THE SAKE OF NO ONE

Band:REVELATION
Album:FOR THE SAKE OF NO ONE
Label:Shadow Kingdom
Format:CD
Genre:Stoner/Doom/Occult/Sludge Metal

Coming off their amazing comeback album, REVELATION are back again yet for another album. Just when you think they've hit their peak, think again. For The Sake Of No One is very much a continuation of the last album so if you enjoyed the last album as much as I did, you'll be eager to invite this new album into your collection as well. Very few bands that are 20 + years can keep up with their classic material and we're lucky enough to have REVELATION around, not only keep the quality of music on par with their classics, but in some eyes surpassing it.

 

 

BLACK NIGHT

Band:IRON MAN
Album:BLACK NIGHT
Label:Shadow Kingdom
Format:CD
Genre:Stoner/Doom/Occult/Sludge Metal

Very few bands come close to sounding like the classic BLACK SABBATH, but I think IRON MAN along with WITCHFINDER GENERAL, PENTAGRAM, and PAGAN ALTAR are the closest from the beginning. IRON MAN is a very special band to the underground heavy metal scene which craves for those fans who seek dark/doomy sounds that SABBATH created and really there are not many bands that even dared to try to re-create SABBATH with their own twist, but I feel IRON MAN have done so without being a cut and paste rip off band. This first album marks a birth of one of the few bands like I mentioned above who dove in head first into that dark atmosphere. This album is all about the riffs and heaviness, which if SABBATH themselves would ever hear this, they probably would be impressed too. There wasn’t much salvaged from the early days of IRON MAN , so the photos are limited, but we were able to re-master the album to make it sound as heavy as possible.

 

 

DANS LES BRAS DES IMMORTELS

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of this now-classic album, Sepulchral Productions has released a new anniversary edition, featuring an complete remastering, a revamped layout, as well as an never before released special cover of Burzum’s Black Spell of Destruction, recorded in 2001 as a tribute to that band’s old work.

PLAGUE OF THE PLANET

Band:OGRE
Album:PLAGUE OF THE PLANET
Label:Shadow Kingdom
Format:CD
Genre:Stoner/Doom/Occult/Sludge Metal

USA 70's/80's sounding Rock/Doom Metal hybrid band OGRE have been together since 1999. They have a unique sound combining the elements of BUDGIE, BLOODROCK, PENTAGRAM, BLACK SABBATH, RUSH, AC/DC, etc with a Bon Scott/Ozzy styled vocalist that would appeal to any Rock or Metal fan.

Inspired by such classic albums as "2112", "Dark Side of the Moon", and "Music from the Elder", "Plague of the Planet" is a full-on concept album, consisting of a single multi-part epic suite that sends the listener on a journey filled with pulverizing riffs, extended jams, over-the-top vocals, and such familiar OGRE obsessions as giant robots, dog-men, death, doom, and war. Plague of the Planet is more than just a self-contained concept, however. Over the course of the album’s 38 minutes, the band incorporates lyrical motifs and musical themes from OGRE songs going as far back as its 2000 demo, making Plague of the Planet the ultimate distillation of the epic OGRE sound.

 

 

OLD YRON

Band:OLD YRON
Album:OLD YRON
Label:Shadow Kingdom
Format:CD
Genre:Metal

An unknown forgotten gem at the time of its release, especially as the tides were changing and this kind of IRON MAIDEN-esque heavy metal was beginning to die out in popularity while new genres started to emerge. Here you will find extremely fast heavy metal, but not Thrash. OLD YRON had a very violent lead guitar layered with shredding riffs and over the top high pitched vocals. Think IRON MAIDEN meets YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, but without going overboard with the guitar shredding. There were no master tapes so the best option the band wanted to do was to rip the music directly from the original vinyl. The bonus tracks are some some dark classical music written by Antonio Ferrari in the early 2000’s.

A lost gem of Italian Metal re-mastered with bonus tracks.

Landscapes and visions of thoughtful solitude evoke the melancholy of a lost time, turn back the wheel to forgotten ages. Listening to these songs is like seeing through the eyes of a northern-land wanderer: wide landscapes wearing the autumn colors, snow covered mountains under clear blue sky,endless horizons and feeling the warm hearths of grandfathers families.

Gris, formerly Niflheim, is back with the second chapter of their quest (which will end at chapter seven) to find the perfect balance between despair and joy, ugliness and beauty.

Already considered a classic in the Depressive Black Metal genre, Il Était une Forêt has been massively hailed worldwide as an incredibly moving experience.

THE ANTIPRISM

Band:THE ANTIPRISM
Album:THE ANTIPRISM
Label:BARBARIAN
Format:CD
Genre:Stoner/Doom/Occult/Sludge Metal

Mind and string bending stoner/metal that pulls influences from the last 4 decades. Riff driven, stealing a bit from the NWoBHM, but with enough originality & modern metal touches to garner a spot in today's mess. Dual vocals, double bass, sometimes off kilter beats and seasoned trade off leads. Melodic, heavy riffs intertwine with urgent, angry vocals and occult lyrics. The Antiprism explores the wide girth in the middle of the stoner spectrum. Circling metal extremities but never wholly succumbing. Members have played in local/regional acts Merrick & Shotdown, as well as Pachinko (Alt. Ten.). Kristine played drums in Madison's all female metal band Tormentula.

VENGEFUL AND OBSTINATE

Band:DIVINE EVE
Album:VENGEFUL AND OBSTINATE
Label:IBEX MOON
Format:CD
Genre:Death Metal

After fifteen years of silence, the pure sonic violence of Divine Eve has returned. Reforming in 2008, these veterans of doomy death metal went straight to work writing new material that would bring back the true meaning of ‘old-school.’ The end result has come to pass as the foursong MCD, Vengeful And Obstinate. True to Divine Eve form, this release promises the most punishing and bludgeoning brand of death metal known to man. With a history that traces back to 1992, Divine Eve has reached a cult-like status in the world of underground metal, releasing demos and EPs through the likes of Candlelight and Nuclear Blast Records over the years. Although conflicts and hostilities tore the band itself apart, the name Divine Eve (and more importantly, the music) has never left the collective, blackened hearts of the band’s fans, nor its members. Determined to take care of their unfinished business, three of the four original members, Michael A. Sleavin (rhythm guitar / vocals), Matthew Killen (drums) and Xan Hammack (lead guitar / vocals) reunited for the long-awaited second coming of Divine Eve.

MASTERY OF CREATION

Band:WORMSBLOOD
Album:MASTERY OF CREATION
Label:BARBARIAN
Format:CD
Genre:Black Metal

Known for his work in the popular proto doom act Jex Thoth and from his own power electronics outfit Burial Hex, Clay Ruby ventures in a different direction this time. An album of outsider metal, it's sparse and bleak, but rumblings, clanging and tortured cries erupt violently throughout. A very unhinged and dangerous album. Comparisons could be drawn to Armanenschaft, Blood of the Black Owl & the True Werwolf, both musically, as well as in the sense those bands also use black metal as a foundation to explore darker, more experimental avenues.

 

 

INSIPID EMACIATION

Band:MERLOT
Album:INSIPID EMACIATION
Label:BARBARIAN
Format:CD
Genre:Black Metal

One man black metal attack from Chicagoland. Cold and methodical, exploring a range of drum programming, from blast beats to mid paced gallops and even d-beat. Warped vocals and buzz-saw guitars follow in speed. This has a very mechanized and industrial feel to this, but also slow tortured at times with dastardly appropriate samples.

 

 

WOLFBANE

Band:WOLFBANE
Album:WOLFBANE
Label:Shadow Kingdom
Format:CD
Genre:Metal

WOLFBANE ; now let’s get down to business here. Think early PRIEST and BLACK SABBATH mixed with PAGAN ALTAR styled vocals and a sprinkle of RUSH and ALICE COOPER for good measure and somewhere in that mess of great bands lies the sound of WOLFBANE. This is one of the very best obscure gems to ever be re-released from the NWOBHM movement and also one of the most unexpected as the band never recorded an album, and they really didn’t keep much memorabilia from those days. Here you’re going to get the first 2 demo tapes from 1981 and 1982 re-mastered and this is all the essential material you need.

A MUST FOR ALL NWOBHM COLLECTORS!

 

 

TSAR BOMBA

Band:BRIDE
Album:TSAR BOMBA
Label:Retroactive

Genre:Metal

BRIDE returns with the band’s 13th studio album and first new release since the breathtaking Skin For Skin (2006)! Ever since the debut release of Show No Mercy (1986) BRIDE has given Metal fans across the globe a reason to rejoice! Aside from STRYPER, no Christian metal band has had the longevity, vitality, and impact of Bride over the last 23+ years! Tsar Bomba is the Russian nickname of the RDS-202 hydrogen bomb, the largest and most powerful nuclear weapon ever detonated. Brothers Troy & Dale Thompson have created a truly lethal album of dangerous hard rock and metal! Of course, listeners are treated to Dale’s trademark spot-on, searing vocals and Troy’s guitar heroics. But Tsar Bomba resists the urge to play it safe, and steps up to the task of offering fans an album that is passionate, creative, and HEAVY! Listeners find Tsar Bomba engaging from start to finish as BRIDE intersperses acoustic and classical interludes throughout. Not only are these metal songs held together with the toughest riffs this side of Metallica, but it’s one of the most melodic, hook-driven albums in band history! The end result is an explosive album of hypnotic heaviness that features the best of Bride’s past even as is it showcases BRIDE’S seemingly endless ability to elevate to new levels of creativity! Only Bride sounds like Bride, but this will definitely appeal to fans of Skillett, The Showdown, Disciple, Seven Dust, and Metallica!

Saint is one of a handful of pioneering Christian heavy metal bands that re-grouped after being inactive for some years.

The band signed with Retroactive Records in 2009 and agreed to have the label re-release this 2008 classic. However, this new Retroactive Records version has been re-titled, Crime Scene Earth 2.0, as the album has had many parts completely re-recorded as well as being remixed and remastered. CSE 2.0 also features stunning, all-new artwork by extraordinary artist, Rex Zachary (Liberty N’ Justice, Tourniquet, Ultimatum), which is far superior to the original release.

On the original release, the classic voice of Saint, the immortal golden-throated Josh Kramer, sang on only three tracks. On this re-release, the band had Josh go back and record his Rob Halford-ish vocals on every single track on the album! From the thunderous "Bended Knee" to the stunning cover of the Judas Priest classic "Invader", Josh and Saint ascend to the elite levels of melodic heavy metal!

HELL BLADE

Band:SAINT
Album:HELL BLADE
Label:Retroactive
Format:CD
Genre:Metal

A powerful storm is brewing to take place in 2010 and at the center of that storm is the latest album from Oregon headbangers, Saint. Hell Blade (the band's 8th studio album) hits the stage with all guns blazing and ready to take no prisoners. This disc is a tremendous heavy machine that is hitting on all cylinders as the band has assembled a massive array of heavy metal thunder. Josh is in all his full-throated glory, Jerry Johnson's guitars are forthright and dominant, Richard Lynch's bass work is enormously huge and the drums drive and plow the listener into total submission. Energy just oozes out of the performances. Hell Blade is a masterpiece and the band has literally never sounded better.

For fans of Judas Priest, Iron Maiden and Barren Cross.

"Isabel" sparkles with catchy hooks. "They Just Go On" is hopelessly melodic and "The Contender" is chock full of power chords!

The title track scores an early high point lyrically with an inspirational call for struggling believers to hold fast to the truth of Christ, which alone can sustain them. "Carry Me" is an interesting track musically with progressive, moody stylings. "Undecided" is some major ear-candy that exemplifies the sort of melodic pop that gives Top 40 radio something with hooks and a stunning melody!
