Black Metal

“Sorcier Des Glaces’ second offering to the mortal world was recorded just two years after the very first album, in August 1999. Nevertheless, the maturity of their sound and composition is perceptible. It’s no longer a one-man band this time, involving Luc more extensively, who this time records all the drum parts and also participates in the elaboration of several keyboard parts. The infernal duo is officially up and running.

New LP edition of the full-length from 1998 .
Snowland is cold, really cold, pure, lo-fi in the extreme, achieving the very first goal of what Sorcier Des Glaces wanted to evoke in the eyes of the world. Expressing disgust with the human race by exiling himself to its own snowland, the melodies evoke a certain romanticism of the great Nordic forests. He is then alone to begin his reign on his night’s throne.

Now, to round out the ruinous year of 2022, it is here, bearing the title Requiem. Indeed something of a lament, feeling fixed and finite, SPECTRAL CORRUPTION’s latest full-length bristles with a despair that can only suggest infinite misery, malodorous and miasmic: a vacuum of violence where melodic/majestic riffing gets broken down and blown out. Mainman Verminitar (also of Cryptic Vampire and Spheral Void) howls into that vacuum, drunk on his own power/misery but drowning within it all the same. That he ends the album with a Lamp of Murmuur cover indeed underlines SPECTRAL CORRUPTION’s place within this uprising of modern RAW black metal.

Death Metal

After 25 years of activity, StarGazer has firmly established itself as one of the most enduring Black/Death bands in the Australian extreme metal scene. And although they have remained continuously productive during the last quarter-century, their output is sparse, owing to the band’s meticulous approach to writing and recording. Consequently, the release of every StarGazer album is a momentous event. Recorded during the early stages of the Great Reset, “Psychic Secretions” is just the fourth full-length album in the StarGazer catalog and comes six years after their last album, the brilliant “A Merging to the Boundless.

Black Metal

Poured from the heart of the mountains to flood this earth with hatred.

Expect violence and an abysmal atmosphere that will drawn you in the deep poisonous and treacherous waters of the Styx!

Raw Black Metal

Sulphuric Night is definitely one of the most compelling names to originate from the endlessly creative Bosnian Underground scene. Through a series of releases showcasing an outstandingly austere and crude approach, it is utterly mesmerizing the way this horde casts absolute and intense darkness with its disturbing arrangements. Compiling material that was originally released in very limited quantities, “Arcane Monoliths of Triumphant Death” is a more than welcoming and comprehensive collection of a vault that goes back to 2013. Mastered directly from the original master tapes and perfectly prepared for the most captivating sonic experience, this assembly chronologically presents a distressing vault marked by eerily cruel riffs and ferocious rhythmic outbursts, insanely possessed vocals and a general suffocating atmosphere of vicious dread.

Both bands embrace the rawer side of Black Metal, but also delivering melodic intensity.
