The Whiskey Knives‘ Hidden Valley Reeder Ranch Dressing Sessions.

Alfredo may be best known for his work with first Kyuss….and then the band born from its ashes, Queens of the Stone Age. After a couple of decades playing not just stoner rock…but punk rock…his other passion…with Family Butcher, which featured John Summers on vocals and Jon Arnold on guitar along with Kevin Smith on bass…Alfredo and Jon Arnold have pushed forward with a new punk inspired project, Whiskey & Knives These LA badasses have a rep for crankin' the pit into overdrive. With a sound that blends the best parts of Fu Manchu and Suicidal Tendancies, their live show is a must for any respectable punk. For Vol.4 Reeder and Herndez played together for the first time since the KUYSS years - Sounds so powerful.

EMAK BAKIA

Band:MUSLIMGAUZE
Album:EMAK BAKIA
Label:OTHER VOICES RECORDS
Format:CD
Genre:EXPERIMENTAL/AMBIENT/ TRANCE/ACIDHOUSE

We have repeatedly surprised you with unusual releases that sound uncharacteristic for wellknown artists Remember Merzbow with guitars, synth (almost said synth-pop) and drum machine? Well, Muslimgauze's turn came up. Emak Bakia long out of print masterpieces from 1994. Even in the huge Bryn Jones' discography Emak Bakia really stands out of albums from the period due its rather unique (house-music related) sound and short, by the standards of Bryn Jones, tracks. Like a crossmix between Psychic TV (circa Towards Thee Infinite Beat) and Muslimgauze's trademark percussion and eastern vibes. Re-mastered and with new stunning artwork. TRACK LISTING 1. Afghan Rev. V.01 2. Y.A. Rev. V.01 3. Missing Tibetans Rev. V.01 4. Y.A. Rev. V.02 5. Afghans Rev. V.02 6. Missing Tibetans Rev. V.02 7. Lahra Salam Rev. V.01 8. Y.A. Rev. V.03 9. Afghans Rev. V.03

I first heard Nika s work on the Stridulum EP (Sacred Bones, 2010). Every aspect of the release connected with me and it soon became a daily listen. The record (and all of her work) was relatable and infectious. I ve been an avid listener ever since. Watching her artistry grow and deepen over time has been inspiring.

DJINN

Band:UADA
Album:DJINN
Label:Eisenwald
Format:CD
Genre:Black Metal

Since their formation in 2014, Uada's rise has been meteoric. Hailing from the Pacific Northwest, the band quietly released their debut album, Devoid of Light, in 2016 through Eisenwald, and word of mouth quickly built from there: here was BLACK METAL writ large, classic and uncompromising but brimming with power, soul, and artistry, and all without bluster and bathos. Uada's debut album surely expanded the lexicon of the melodic black metal idiom, and the underground took notice. Two years later came Cult of a Dying Sun, whereby the band further perfected their craft and compellingly took to the stage, their performances garnering as much acclaim as their recordings. During all this, more than the underground started to take notice; the name Uada was on the tongues of folks usually reticent to black metal. Now, almost effortlessly, Uada fully perfect their craft and deliver their masterwork: Djinn. Simply titled but by no means simple in construction nor execution, Djinn builds upon the increasingly ambitious songwriting of its no-less-considerable predecessor, but pushes their dazzling artistry into nearly Technicolor landscapes of the Beyond. Upon the first opening notes, this boundless artistry is felt: big, rolling rhythms reminiscent of post-punk, tantalizingly setting the stage for the splendorous expanses to follow. There's a certain magick at play here, no doubt bolstered by the band's rhythm section of Josiah Babcock (who puts in his final performance here) and new bassist Nate Verschoor, erstwhile mainman of Veiled; this throttling-yet-deft foundation both leads and plays acute counterpoint to the spiraling, windswept riffing of founders Jake Superchi (also vocals) and James Sloan, their guitar work transcending the poignancy of prior works. And indeed, Djinn's generous six-song/hour-long runtime no doubt allows the listener the ultimate freedom to roam within Uada's ever-unique world, spanning both smothering speed and deliriously dream-like states, Very Metal urgency and textural exploration alike - put simply, the band at the height of their creative powers. Djiin is truly its own realm of experience. TRACKLIST 1. Djinn 2. The Great Mirage 3. No Place Here 4. In the Absence of Matter 5. Forestless 6. Between Two Worlds

Cross-label documentation of the only relevant German contribution to the international phenomenon of rock music. > Important note for non-German speaking music lovers: all liner notes are in German. An English translation is unfortunately not available. Progressive Rock from Germany! 2-CD (trifold digisleeve) with 100(!)-page illustrated booklet, 25 tracks. Playing time approx. 137min Towards the end of the 1960s, German bands began their first attempts to emancipate themselves stylistically from their US and British role models. ProgRock and Pchychedelia from our country were initially smiled at internationally and disparagingly called 'Krautrock' by cult DeeJay John Peel, among others. Unorthodox formations could not be pigeonholed, and so a scene with a wide musical range was created. The second part is dedicated to the central part of West Germany and presents popular bands such as La Düsseldorf, Passport, Gomorrha, Necronomicon, Shaa Khan, Bröselmaschine, Epitaph und Faithful Breath. Mostly remastered from digital tape copies by Marcus Heumann without wasting the original sound.

DR. FEELGOOD

Band:KING SIZE TAYLOR
Album:DR. FEELGOOD
Label:BEAR FAMILY
Format:CD
Genre:ROCK N ROLL/BEAT MUSIC

Third release in our CD series 'The Brits Are Rocking'! With 'Dr. Feelgood' Bear Family presents a long overdue album: the first CD compilation containing all recordings by 'King Size' Taylor for Polydor (as The Shakers) and Ariola (as King Size Taylor & The Dominoes). Especially in Germany, King Size Taylor was known in the early sixties as a regular guest and performer at Hamburg's Star-Club. In the Hanseatic city he performed more than 250 times between 1962 and 1964 and recorded exclusively in Germany during this time. Due to the creation of legends around the young Beatles, King Size Taylor also ran under the popular label 'Beat'. But on closer inspection, Taylor was and always remained the real rocker from the British Isles.

 

 

THE BAKERSFIELD SOUND

Band:VARIOUS ARTISTS
Album:THE BAKERSFIELD SOUND
Label:BEAR FAMILY
Format:10CD
Genre:Country

Buck Owens and Merle Haggard emerged from the dim lights, thick smoke and loud, loud music of Bakersfield, California's thriving honky-tonk scene of the 1950s and '60s and changed country music forever. But what is the ‘Bakersfield Sound?’ While twanging Telecasters and crying steel guitars come to mind, the music that emanated from Central California in that era reflected a variety of influences that was expressed in myriad ways. How did the musical world from which Buck and Merle emerged come to be? How were the twin pillars of the Bakersfield Sound shaped by the city's larger musical community? Who were their influences, and what were the musical markers along their paths to success? In what ways did their achievements reshape the local scene from which they emerged? Garmmy-nominated writer Scott B. Bomar tells the story!

 

 

DISCOVERING CARL PERKINS - 1952-54

Band:CARL PERKINS
Album:DISCOVERING CARL PERKINS - 1952-54
Label:BEAR FAMILY
Format:LP
Genre:ROCKABILLY/HILLBILLY

Carl Perkins, one of the founding fathers of rock & roll, began his legendary recording career for Sun Records in 1954. After two fairly undistinguished hillbilly outings, he created Blue Suede Shoes, which changed the face of American popular music. It was the first song to top all three charts at once: pop, hillbilly and R&B. Producer and music historian, Shawn Pitts and Hank Davis just made a startling discovery that will rewrite rockabilly history. Carl Perkins recorded at least two years earlier in a small studio in rural Tennessee. Those records make it clear that he was far from the clueless hillbilly who had to be dragged kicking and screaming into the rockabilly revolution. In fact, one of the four songs he recorded was Good Rocking Tonight, perhaps two years earlier than Elvis Presley cut it at Sun! 'Discovering Carl Perkins' contains for the first time anywhere, these historic, unreleased recordings -- complete and remastered for the best possible sound -- along with several rare outtakes from Carl´s earliest Sun period (first time on vinyl). They will appear on a ten-inch LP that includes previously unseen vintage photographs and detailed liner notes about the music, and how the local culture gave rise to these historic, one-of-a-kind recordings. It´s quite a landmark event for those interested in early rock & roll history, Sun Records, Carl Perkins and the birth of rockabilly.

DOOMSDAY ROCK

Band:TOMMY STEELE
Album:DOOMSDAY ROCK
Label:BEAR FAMILY
Format:CD
Genre:ROCK N ROLL

Tommy Steele was Britain's first pop star. The story of how Steele fused the new energy of American rock'n' roll with his own passion for music styles from all over the world is told in the first of a series from Bear Family Productions: Doomsday Rock - The Brits Are Rocking. In the summer of 1956, London was throwing off the grey blanket of post war austerity. New coffee bars and clubs were thronged with young people looking for new fun and entertainment. That summer Tommy Hicks (Steele), Lionel Bart and Mike Pratt met at a party in a beatnik commune called the Yellow Door. They decided to form a group, and call themselves The Cavemen – and the rest is Pop History. On the CD, Steele 's first chaotic recording session, the surreal Rock With The Cavemen keeps up the pace with his covers of Ritchie Valens Come On Let's Go and Freddie Cannon's Tallahassie Lassie. More of Tommy's own songs are included – Teenage Party, The Trial, Hey You!, and an instrumental in which Tommy does a fair impression of A drunk, Drunken Guitar, plus more

 

 

SEXY ROCK

Band:COLIN HICKS
Album:SEXY ROCK
Label:BEAR FAMILY
Format:CD
Genre:ROCK N ROLL

Fourth release our CD series 'The Brits Are Rocking'! This compilation of 27 songs is not in chronological order, but nevertheless outlines the interesting career of the Brit rocker. The British have developed their very own kind of Rock 'n' Roll and Rockabilly, mostly a lot more aggressive than the originals from the USA. And this is where Colin Hicks is the best example. He recorded for Pye Nixa in England and toured extensively, but was overshadowed by his highly successful brother Tommy Steele. Through interesting circumstances he came to Italy, where he became a celebrated Rock 'n' Roll star and even appeared in several movies! TRACK LISTING 01 Giddy Up A Ding Dong 02 Empty Arms Blues 03 Wild Eyes And Tender Lips 04 Sexy Rock (from the film 'Ombre Blanche') 05 Mean Woman Blues 06 Oh Boy! 07 Loves Made A Fool Of You 08 Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On 09 Hanging Around 10 Tallahassee Lassie 11 Jambalaya (On The Bayou) 12 Blue Moon Of Kentucky 13 That Little Girl Of Mine 14 Lea Iea (from the film 'Europa di notte') 15 Robot Man 16 Put Me Down 17 Lovin' Up A Storm 18 A Teenager In Love 19 Book Of Love 20 Hallelujah, I Love her so 21 Brand New Cadillac 22 All Because Of You 23 Impazzivo Per Te 24 Johnny B Goode 25 Tutti Frutti 26 Twenty Flight Rock 27 Hang Up My Rock And Roll Shoes

 

 

TELL MAMA

Band:ETTA JAMES
Album:TELL MAMA
Label:BEAR FAMILY
Format:LP
Genre:SOUL/R&B/BLUES

Recognized today as one of the greatest Soul LPs of all time, TELL MAMA hasn't been available on vinyl for more than forty years. Now it's back, lovingly transferred and remastered, and pressed on 180g vinyl. Here's the story. Down in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, Atlantic Records' Jerry Wexler had fallen out with Rick Hall at FAME studio after an Aretha Franklin session ended with Aretha storming back to New York. Wexler later set up the Muscle Shoals session guys in their own studio, Muscle Shoals Sound. Furious at the betrayal, Hall went to see Atlantic's arch-rival, Chess Records, and persuaded Leonard Chess to bring his top Soul acts to FAME. Between August and December 1967, Chess's Etta James, recorded her greatest album, TELL MAMA, at FAME. Etta's career had faltered, and it took the Muscle Shoals sessions to bring her back. The LP's title song, Tell Mama, as well as Otis Redding's Security became Top 40 hits and Top 20 R&B hits for Etta. It was the B-side of Tell Mama that would become the LP's enduring track, though. I'd Rather Go Blind was written by Etta's friend, Fugi Foster, who handed it to her when she went to see him in prison. Although never a charted hit for Etta, this is the original version of a song that has been recorded hundreds of times by artists as diverse as Fleetwood Mac, Rod Stewart, Paolo Nutini, Mick Hucknall, and the Allman Brothers.

Genre:PROG ROCK/ELECTRONICA

Nautilus was founded in 1998 as an electronics duo by Martin Ludwig and Ralf Obel, later Guitarist Werner Strätz and ex-GROBSCHNITT member entered the project.  It was Eroc, who produced the title track for the debut CD "Rising Balloon" in the Woodhouse studio and also made a musical contribution. With the third album "Solar Moon" guitarist Strätz became a permanent member of Nautilus. After the CD was voted "best album of the year" by radio legend Winfried Trenkler in 2000, the bsc Music Prudence label signed the band and initially published the re-release of "Solar Moon "and subsequently three other Nautilus albums. After the sampling specialist Ralf Obel stepped down in 2003, the musical concept changed with regard to increased progressive and acoustic elements. With "In Search Of Castaways" (2004), Nautilus was particularly successful in the prog rock scene. In 2008, Nautilus recorded the album "Along the Winding Road" with the new keyboardist Jürgen Dürrbeck. From the beginning, Nautilus wrote their albums based on great novels by the French visionary Jules Verne. With the new album "The Mystery Of Waterfalls", now released after a twelve-year break, the listener accompanies Captain Nemo on his "20,000 miles under the seas" . Musically, newcomer Meiko Richert as a singer in the elegiac longtrack "Point Of Return" adds a new element to the previously purely instrumental concept. Also new are the sometimes escalating twin guitar licks like in "Snowstorm On The Sea". Furthermore, Mellotron choirs like in "Mobilis in Mobile", sparkling sequences, but also melodic guitar pieces like "Summertime" exude a lot of 70s flair and yet sound contemporary or timeless. The musical influences such as Pink Floyd, Tangerine Dream, Mike Oldfield or Wishbone Ash weave Nautilus into an unmistakable style of their own.

DEIN KOPF IST EIN SCHLAFENDES AUTO

Band:ROMAN BUNKA
Album:DEIN KOPF IST EIN SCHLAFENDES AUTO
Label:SIREENA
Format:CD
Genre:PROG ROCK/JAZZ ROCK/KRAUTROCK

"Dein Kopf Ist Ein Schlafendes Auto“ (engl. Your Head is a Sleeping Car) was one of the most interesting German formations of the exciting late 1970s. The album, which bears the title of the band's name, was recorded in 1980 and was released on record the same year. The band presented a unique mix of avantgarde rock, soul, jazz and oriental music. Hardly any other band offered this variety of musical quotes, such breathless ups and downs of incredible sounds and grooves. Roman Bunka and "Dein Kopf Ist Ein Schlafendes Autor" were the cultural ambassadors of that time. In addition to Roman Bunka, the band consisted of Gerald Luciano Hartwig (bass, sitar) and Freddy Setz (drums, piano), who unfortunately died much too early. The band shows their special class on the bonus track of this CD, which was recorded live in 1980.

Label:SIREENA
Format:CD
Genre:PROG ROCK/JAZZ ROCK

Rubber Tea’s "Infusion" is a collection of musical stories and fictional journeys which let the listener escape into the vast world of their own imagination.

With the help of several guest musicians the band was able to further expand their sound. It ranges from timeless, dreamy soundscapes (Downstream) to rythmically complex extravaganzas capturing insanity and confusion of recent history (American Dream). Alongside epic organ and guitar solos the concise voice of singer Vanessa Gross tells the most colourful stories, in a way no image or film by themselves ever could. The album rewards the attentive and curious listener with its progressive concept beyond the musical status quo.

Genre:RHYTHM & BLUES/ROCK N ROLL

The Queen of Rhythm and Blues This compilation of 30 songs impressively shows the extremely interesting career of Ruth Brown. Starting in the early 1950s, when she sang her way to the top of the R&B charts with her unique voice, which already had a high recognition value at that time, and thus created a solid financial basis for her label Atlantic Records, through the time in the mid 1950s, when she easily made the transition from her rather jazzy style of rhythm and blues to rock 'n' roll and teenage ballads and to early soul sounds, gospel and twist in the early '60s. Bonus tracks, first time on CD: live recordings from the 'Rhythm and Blues Revue' in the mid-50s. These recordings impressively show the atmosphere that captivated the audience at such live concerts! 1-CD with 36-page booklet, 31 tracks. Total playing time approx. 78 min.

TELL IT TO ME

Band:VARIOUS ARTISTS
Album:TELL IT TO ME
Label:BEAR FAMILY
Format:CD
Genre:OLD-TIMEY/TRADITIONAL COUNTRY MUSIC

East Tennessee s influential 1920s-era location recording sessions. Featuring 26 recordings by 26 different musical acts that were active in the late 1920s, Tell It To Me presents a diverse and dynamic overview of Appalachia's vernacular music at the cusp of the Great Depression. While representing a range of genres and styles and showcasing both secular and sacred material, this album is thematically unified by the fact that all of the tracks hail from commercial location recording sessions held by Columbia Records in Johnson City, Tennessee, during successive Octobers in 1928 and 1929. This album documents timeless performances from those sessions and bolsters recent assertions by discerning aficionados of 78 RPM records that those sessions generated a particularly memorable canon of historical recordings. 1-CD with 40-page booklet, 26 tracks. Total playing time 77:27 min. This release is intended to demonstrate what music historian Ed Ward meant when he tweeted "Johnson City Sessions: Lots more fun than the Bristol Sessions. Fewer stars, more insight into a vanished world.'' Intended to distill onto a single CD the ground-breaking research found on Bear Family Records' award-winning 4-CD boxed set The Johnson City Sessions (BCD16083), released in 2013, Tell It To Me features a new essay in which Grammy Award-nominated liner notes writer Ted Olson describes the Johnson City sessions, sets them into historical context, and assesses their lasting historical impact. Coming with state-of-the-art sound engineering generally associated with releases from Bear Family, these nine-decade-old recordings sound warm and clear--as if they were made yesterday. TRACK LISTING 01 Tell It To Me - Grant Brothers & Their Music 02 Home Town Blues - Roane County Ramblers 03 - Johnson City Blues - Clarence Greene 04 Louise - Proximity String Quartet 05 The Battleship Maine - Richard Harold 06 Roll On Buddy - Charlie Bowman & His Brothers 07 Old Lady And The Devil - Bill & Belle Reed 08 I'll Be Ready When The Bridegroom Comes - McVay & Johnson 09 When The Roses Bloom for the Bootlegger - Earl Shirkey & Roy Harper 10 I Ain't A Bit Drunk - George Roark 11 - Just Over The River - Garland Brothers & Grinstead 12 Green Valley Waltz - McCartt Brothers & Patterson 13 Pride Of The Ball - Blalock & Yates, a.m.o

Format:CD
Genre:OLD-TIMEY/TRADITIONAL COUNTRY MUSIC

East Tennessee s influential 1920s-era location recording sessions. We Shall All Be Reunited: Revisiting the Bristol Sessions, 1927-1928 casts new light on an old story - that of the 1927 Bristol sessions. Conducted by Victor Records A&R producer Ralph Peer, this seminal event from the early years of commercial recording in the 1980s was nick-named the Big Bang of Country Music, while the city in which the event occurred - Bristol, Tennessee/Virginia - was officially dubbed the Birthplace of Country Music. Featuring 15 key recordings made in Bristol during late July and early August 1927 - including first-ever recordings by the now-legendary Carter Family and Jimmie Rodgers. 1-CD with 44-page booklet, 26 tracks. Total playing time approx. 78 min. Memorable, varied recordings from the late 20s Bristol sessions by a range of Appalachian musicians. The recordings were painstakingly remastered in 2020 by sound engineer Marcus Heumann. The CD features an evocative 44-page insert booklet designed by art director Mychael Gerstenberger. New liner notes written by Ted Olson in which the 1927 sessions are reassessed based on recent scholarly research and discussion. The liner notes explore the rest of the story - the related cultural occurrences all-too-often ignored or marginalized. TRACK LISTING 01. Ernest V.

Genre:DARK AMBIENT/AMBIENT

Tineidae (Poland) serves us a space ambient album thick with analogue sweeps and evolving walls of sound. The derelict mothership is massive, its silent shadow swallowing your cutter-ship as you connect with the airlock. Inside, rusted bulkheads sing like whales from deep within as they reverberate with lumbering creaks. Your flashlight flickers in the dark as you wipe the smudge off a wall-mounted map. Better get the power online or you'll never be able to access the backup logs. NG-section is two floors down. Time for another spacewalk.

Format:CDD
Genre:DARK AMBIENT/AMBIENT

Mount Shrine and Alphaxone group up on this collaborative album exploring the delicate bridge between reality and dreams. A soothing journey served through crackling field recordings, deep basses and harmonic textural padwork. Here in the sacred recesses of the mind rests the never ending palace, where reality and dreams meet. Where rivers of trauma cleanse dirty drains. Where damp hallways and underpasses run through great libraries filled with every thought and emotion that has come to pass. Where the ancient gatekeepers protect the sacred grounds with swords of fire as dark tendrils slither their way towards the core of innocence.

Format:LP
Genre:PUNK/ROCK/GARAGE/SYNTH

They are sexy, they are powerful, they are subversive! HUMAN TOYS is a collision of raw rock'n'roll sound and electronic beats. Poupée Mecanik (vocals, theremin) has a penchant for playing with female archetypes: subversion is the name of the game, flavored with a generous dose of irony. New guitarist Jon Von adds the punk energy of the RIP OFFS; the band has never been so wild! Meanwhile, Florian Cité toils in his secret laboratory, perfecting the synthetic rhythm section. The band navigates the mad road through a garage punk musical landscape, illuminated by the flickering incandescence of sexploitation films. HUMAN TOYS have musically reformed since their previous record “Excuse My French” on Records Ad Nauseam and while one may find a lot less electronic/electroclashinfluence in their music now, there is definitely a higher dose of wild punkrock! Whoever has had the pleasure to witness one of their fantastic live‐shows around the world so far knows that they deliver fullon power and punkrock energy with a tough and seductive attitude

LAST STANDING VILLAGE

Band:GODS BASTARD
Album:LAST STANDING VILLAGE
Label:I VOIDHANGER
Format:CDD
Genre:PROGRESSIVE BLACK METAL

Originally a digital EP released through Bandcamp in 2019, GOD'S BASTARD's “Last Standing Village” is such a precious jewel of progressive black metal that it needed a physical edition and, with it, much more recognition than what it's gained so far. Expertly mastered by Colin Marston, “Last Standing Village” contains three tracks, three steps of a cathartic journey slowly developing through a constant, breathtaking crescendo of crooked guitar riffs and devastating drums, entwined together in creative ways. GOD'S BASTARD combine the barbaric approach of the hardcore genre with a black metal fury, alternating moments of light and darkness like in a psychotic, emotional rollercoaster.

Format:CD
Genre:ATMOSPHERIC BLACK METAL

The solo project of Isla Valve and active since 1999, Finland's VERIKYYNELEET (in Finnish, “Bloodtears”) have always remained in the shadow, releasing their amateurish black metal recordings mostly in the form of raw demos and EPs. Recorded about 6 years ago, an embryonal version of “Ilman Kuolemaa” – the band's first full length album – saw the light of day in 2019, but for its official release on CD it has been expanded to also include songs, riffs and melodies composed almost 20 years ago, to fully unravel the primitive, mysterious, melancholic and dark essence of VERIKYYNELEET's black metal, also evident in Isla Valve's illustrations for the booklet.

 

 

A COR DO FOGO

Band:NOITE
Album:A COR DO FOGO
Label:I VOIDHANGER
Format:CDD
Genre:RELIGIOUS MUSIC/BLACK METAL

Shrouded in incense and sulphur smokes, NOITE (Night) is an experimental black metal venture of Gonius Rex, the mastermind behind Portugal's ONIRIK. Inspired by medieval and neo-classical music and based on haunting psalms of penance and compositional whirls, NOITE's style is not meant to sound as your typical metal, yet it is sure to bring a more eloquent craving for the Darkness and the Occult. Complementary to ONIRIK’S "The Fire Cult Beyond Eternity" released at the same time, “A Cor do Fogo” (The Colour of Fire) is NOITE's first output, a fascinating and psychedelic midnight mass of clean vocals, counterpointing choirs, multiple layers of ecclesiastic invocations and spells, mournful litanies and crepuscular melodies, with nondistorted delayed guitars and bass twirling all around in a heretic congregation. Apart from guitars, bass and choirs, G. Rex also recorded the drums (for the first time) with an ever enticing style of unexpected rhythms and unapologetic experimental vibes.

 

 

THE FIRE CULT BEYOND ETERNITY

Band:ONIRIK
Album:THE FIRE CULT BEYOND ETERNITY
Label:I VOIDHANGER
Format:CD
Genre:Black Metal

A follow-up to "Casket Dream Veneration" (2015), "The Fire Cult Beyond Eternity" is the new album from Portugal's ONIRIK and yet another proof of the talent of G.Rex, the band's sole member. ONIRIK are active since 2002 and along the years have explored black metal far and wide, conjugating in a very peculiar way its most dissonant, tranceinducing fringes with the genre's typical coldness and Luciferian essence. Backed on drums by none other than Dirge Rep (GEHENNA, ENSLAVED, ORCUSTUS, THE KONSORTIUM), G.Rex returns to us after bathing in the abysmal waters of the world below man, bringing with him a new reflection on death, occult wisdoms and dark spirituality. Mixed and mastered by Semjaza Shade Gawecki of THY DARKENED SHADE, "The Fire Cult Beyond Eternity" is that reflection.

 

 

IMMORTALITY THROUGH QUANTUM SUICIDE

Band:XYTHLIA
Album:IMMORTALITY THROUGH QUANTUM SUICIDE
Label:I VOIDHANGER
Format:CDD
Genre:EXPERIMENTAL DEATH GRIND

The solo project of US multi-instrumentalist/singer Nick Stanger (also active in the ranks of black metallers ASHBRINGER), XYTHLIA brilliantly blend the extreme fringes of tech death/grind metal with VOIVOD's progressive/experimental approach and Mick Barr's mind-shattering guitar acrobatics for KRALLICE and OCRILIM. “Immortality Through Quantum Suicide”, the band's first album is as creepy and weirdly fascinating as Carlos Agraz's stunning cover painting, where an alien creature performs a suicide ritual through the time-space continuum, furiously stabbing itself to death. It's a cosmic selfmurder, an outer-dimensional totentanz dripping blood all over stars and black holes, each blood drop a seed sure to spawn new and abhorrent life forms.

The band’s debut came out in 2018 and “Mission From Hell” triumphantly introduced SINSID to the metal world and quickly gained the band a massive new following, with reviews referring to the album as “good old, honest, working class metal” and “couldn’t be more metal if it was hammered over an anvil!” The band now continues its... mission, as it prepares to unleash its next offering which is yet another fine release of pure old school heavy metal! All the elements that one can expect are there; from the catchy choruses and fist-raising anthemic tunes to the raw hellish vocals and of course that nostalgic 80s vibe throughout!

CHANTE, O FLAMME DE LA LIBERTE

Band:SERMENT
Album:CHANTE, O FLAMME DE LA LIBERTE
Label:SEPULCHRAL PRODUCTIONS
Format:CD
Genre:ATMOSPHERIC/SYMPHONIC BLACK METAL

Chante, Ô Flamme de la Liberté, is the first album from Moribond s (Forteresse, Ephemer) solo project Serment. The opus is a concept album telling the legend of a pact with the devil and the quest for a lost heritage, a dark and epic journey at the heart of Québec s snowy forests, buried beyond the snows of ages. Musically, while Moribond s flair for all things epic and grandiose is as present as ever, Serment explores rawer and more symphonic territories than Forteresse. An awesome new entry in the pantheon of Métal Noir Québécois!

 

 

SERMON OF APATHY

Band:DESOLATOR
Album:SERMON OF APATHY
Label:BLACK LION RECORDS
Format:CDD
Genre:Death Metal

Desolator have been treading the hallowed ground of the Swedish death metal scene since 2009. Through an early demo (Gravefeast, 2010), a split (Dark Revival/Mass Human Pyre, 2011), and especially the triumphant Unearthly Monument full length in 2013, the quartet paid proper homage to the buzzsaw sound of the Stockholm masters of yore. Having conquered the saw, the band chose to start to move in another direction with their 2016 EP Spawn of Misanthropy. The four tracks begin to show a move away from the Stockholm sound with the addition of more dissonance and creative riffing akin to the work of early Morbid Angel and Immolation. Black Lion Records saw the promise of this sound in embryo, signing the band and re-releasing Spawn of Misanthropy on CD in 2018. Make no mistake, Desolator are Swedish death metal still. Sermon of Apathy, the latest effort by the band, shows plenty of teeth still. The buzzsaw may be buried a bit, the teeth not as obvious, but the saw still spins. On Sermon, the idea that Desolator began to birth in 2016 comes to full fruition. For you see, Sermon of Apathy is a Frankenstein's monster of death metal, fully sentient and fully functioning. The aggression of the Stockholm sound is tempered with creative and dissonant riffing reminiscent of the above named US death metal masters. This album does a masterful job of saluting key death metal styles of the past, while drawing from those styles to create their own unique path.

REVENANT OF BLASPHEMIES

Band:PAZUZU
Album:REVENANT OF BLASPHEMIES
Label:DUNKELHEIT
Format:CD
Genre:Death Metal

Coming from the scorching land of Costa Rica and influenced by the movie with the same name and also by bands such as Cianide, Winter, Decomposed and I'd even dare to say Nunslaughter, the Doom Death metal band Pazuzu present for the very first time their 2017 debut demo "Revenant of Blasphemies" on vinyl and CD. Originally released on limited edition tape and cd by Psychogrind records, this obscure recording immerses the avid listener into the corridors of stench, decay and the uselessness of the Christian dogma and shows the imminent fate of the bastard manking at the hands of a failed God and the welcoming of Death as the only possible fate to come... Mastered and refurbished in 2019 by Dan Lowndes at Resonance Sound Studio- UK for an enhanced audio experience, this demo is a Tour de Force through the corridors of the asphyxiating and claustrophobic atmospheres of Doom Metal but well balanced with the dynamics and minimalism of Archaic and rhythmic Death Metal. Three songs plus intro and outro which set the pace for the doom that is to come...

 

 

MORTANDAD

Band:ABATUAR
Album:MORTANDAD
Label:DUNKELHEIT
Format:CD
Genre:Death Metal

Active since 2013 and following the previous álbum called “Perversiones de Muerte Putrefacta”, the side Project of the sick mind self-called Cadaver, is ready to unleash upon feeble minded bastards a new destructive installment called “Mortandad”, which continues to the legacy of ultra conservative declaration of Death Metal / Grindcore with clear influences of old school bands such as Napalm Death, Repulsion, Blood and mixing these with the regimental militancy of Proclamation and Black Witchery. The result of this interesting musical symbiosis is “Mortandad”, an album filled not only with the purity of the genres perhaps due to the isolation of the Panamanian scene where they are from, but also soaked with the Central American brutality which they draw their lyrical influences from. Because “Mortandad”, is not an album filled with senseless and shocking violence and gore done for the sake of it like many of their colleagues of the genre, but they have inspired their lyrics in a real brutal case which turns the whole listening experience into a Bizarre tour de Force of unseen violence for good old Europe of the current times.

 

 

APPARITION OF DOOMSDAY

Band:GOATBLOOD
Album:APPARITION OF DOOMSDAY
Label:DUNKELHEIT
Format:LP
Genre:DEATH METAL/BLACK METAL

For the eight years now, this chains- and bullet-bedecked power-duo have been polluting the metal underground with their belligerent brand of bestial black/death. A handful of demos as well as a split were vomited forth before GOATBLOOD's momentous debut album, Adoration of Blasphemy and War, in 2015. Ever aptly titled, Adoration of Blasphemy and War soundly put the German band on the international map, and proved that new, gnarly twists can be made to the rigorous bestial metal template. A couple more splits ensued before GOATBLOOD released their critically acclaimed second album, Veneration of Armageddon, in 2016, once again through DUNKELHEIT. With momentum building to a fever pitch, the band kept a prolific pace with 2017's Gasmask Devastation Terror demo - the title itself best encapsulating the GOATBLOOD experience, perhaps - as well as the Arma Inferre EP in 2018. Not ones to rest on their by-now-considerable laurels, GOATBLOOD are back with LP#3, Apparition of Doomsday. Ever aptly titled, Apparition of Doomsday is indeed a more pronounceably doomed-out face of these Teutonic beasts, but one no less frightening. Whereas GOATBLOOD's previous two full-lengths kept to a many-tracks/short-length schematic - in essence, nodding to nascent grindcore like early Blood, Extreme Noise Terror, and Doom as they do to bestial progenitors Blasphemy and Beherit - here on Apparition of Doomsday do the duo blackgrind with the best of them, but often (and DEVASTATINGLY) downshift into righteously crushing 'n' hypnotic moments most Archgoated. As such, there's still a hefty number of tracks (14 compared to its predecessor's 18), but this significant shift is echoed in the new album's more-flexed length of 46 minutes.

 

 

MIASMIC MONSTROSITY

Band:BLACK COMMUNION
Album:MIASMIC MONSTROSITY
Label:DUNKELHEIT
Format:CD
Genre:DEATH METAL/BLACK METAL

Black Communion is a young band coming from Barranquilla, Colombia, but in their relatively short career, they have been fructiferous and devoted to the Temple of virulent and warlike black death metal. So far they have released a couple of demos, an EP, a split album, a complete full length and even a live recording. While many others opt for experimentation and distortion of the essence of the Bestial side of Black metal, Black Communion, true to the parameters and the harsh and morbid essence of the Southamerican underground scene, have opted for going back to the pillars and roots of the genre undergoing a complete tour de force through the pestilent caverns of blasphemous Bestial Black metal. That is, revisiting and taking influences by primordial acts such as Black Witchery, Blasphemy, Beherit, Revenge, VON and even the morbidity of older Profanatica. Having this explosive cocktail shaken, drank and regurgitated in the southamerican way, they have managed to record a second full length album called “Miasmic Monstrosity” which continues with the path already established by their very early material. Lyrically, they have left behind any pretentious approach but instead they have immersed themselves into the primitive ways of adoration and horror which lies behind the Dark Arts. “Miasmic Monstrosity” has been recorded at Fenix Studios in Soledad, Atlantico –in their native Colombia, that is, and Mastered by M. Dahmen at Liquid Aether Audio (Germany) for the best possible sonic attack. The artwork was handled by the Peruvian young promise K. Guerrero for the hideous Temple of Kalighat, and released by your truly, Dunkelheit Produktionen.

 

 

MALEFICAE ARTES

Band:ENTARTUNG
Album:MALEFICAE ARTES
Label:DUNKELHEIT
Format:CD
Genre:Black Metal

After three long years, Entartung finally returns from the ominous shadows to which they silently retreated after the release of their prior opus, “Baptised into the Faith of Lust”. It is fitting that, in a new age of plague and pestilence, their newest album “Maleficae Artes” (Lat. “Dark Arts”) is unleashed upon the world. The elaborate compositions on “Maleficae Artes” are deeply and firmly rooted in the early 90's atmosphere and remain true to the original spirit of black metal. Brooding, sinister, violent and menacing themes presented by the trademark icy riffing of Lykormas and the militaristic and deadly precise battery assault of Haistulf manifest themselves in a dynamic interaction with acoustic and martial touches of melancholy and gloom. The lyrical subject matters explored on “Maleficae Artes” are devoted to death, the Faustian spirit, ancient rituals and traditions and the darker chapters of human history; enhancing the experience in a synergetic fashion.
