Formed in 1996, SURRENDER OF DIVINITY are the oldest black metal band to hail from Thailand, and more importantly one of the first bands to put Southeast Asian black metal on the international map. A handful of demo and split tapes followed during the late ’90s and into the new millennium, all before the fateful release of their debut album, Oriental Hell Rhythmics, in 2001. A statement of pride as well as of intent, Oriental Hell Rhythmics soon became a classic work of caustic, cryogenic black metal steeped in the early Norwegian tradition. A seemingly odd proposition on paper, but given SURRENDER OF DIVINITY’s date of origin as well as how much slower life moved during the zine & tape-trading days, their sound then was not all that surprising. Regardless, the freezing fury they whipped forth across the deceptively epic album (six songs in 49 minutes) could not be denied: on cyclonic hypnosis alone, SURRENDER OF DIVINITY were superlative, and served as a fuck-off counterpoint to all their old influences who had wimped out by the end of the ’90s. Idiomatic “Norsecore” delivered with exotic flair. SURRENDER OF DIVINITY are Christ-beheaders eternal!

Titled Outojen Tornien Varjoissa, FAUSTIAN PACT’s full-length debut is the grand culmination of all the gloriously bewitching work they brewed across that trio of demos. Exploding with an effervescence that’s addicting and undeniable, their swords-aloft attack surges and swells, crests and cascades. At the forefront are stained-glass synths whisked from a time – and a fantastical landscape – far, FAR away, sumptuously underlining their heroic/romantic style of black metal deeply steeped in a nostalgic past. Across the album’s 41 minute (fantastical) landscape are spread lyrics of splendorous mythology, swords & sorcery, vast forgotten realms brought to life through wily, wanderlusting black metal betraying a noble melodicism. FAUSTIAN PACT are thus a unique balance of contrasts: orkish energy vs. mystical atmosphere, dungeon rawness vs. castle-top aristocracy, obsidian darkness vs. gleaming light. So, whether 25 years ago or 2500, removed by a reality or two, Outojen Tornien Varjoissa is timeless BLACK METAL MAGICK – dark medieval times have at last arrived!

While largely within the wider umbrella of black metal, RVBBERVVITCH’s unique expression nevertheless evades easy categorization – nor easy consumption. Guitars are harsh and cold, yet seemingly summoned from a post-apocalyptic crater rather than an amp; bass tones are mercilessly overdriven, grinding body and soul into the dirt; cutting out humanity altogether, both blastbeats and doomy stomps pump like pus from a Midi drum-machine; and sinister echoing soundscapes meld with malodorous French vocals, which demonically range heavily distorted screeches to low-pitched grunts. And whereas so many nowadays “black metal” bands play-act, the creator of RVBBERVVITCH matches content with form, life with art: the unconventional, largely taboo visual imagery is a reflection of the artist’s unabashedly hedonistic lifestyle.

Dark and true to the spiritual hatred, comes a ritual of primitive bleakness. Harboring decrepit abolishments of purity in the sign of tragedy. In dark conspiracy between German and Chilean black metal manifests an unseen face of the plagues.
MANTIEL births new atrocities since it’s last full-length ‘Pagan Winter Battles’ released in 2020. Eight new hymns of this impure and hopeless black metal that comes from the clash of the sounds of Germany and Chile. In an absolute lifeless form, these sounds emit bleakness and ruin. This full-length “Obskurité” is a strong monolith of the Pure Raw Underground Black Metal Plague circle. Fully equipped with grim and blasphemous moments that ressurect the spirit of true evil. “Obskurité” is an ancient and eroded altar of black metal, with crude vocals and melodic guitar-work that display evocations of unholiness. These sounds are truly depressive and cast into solitude beyond life.

The album keeps the dirt of the demos and glorifies it adding even more dementia. Beware!
