Arcturus (NOR) – Aspera Hiems Symfonia LP €32.88
Black Metal
Following their early EPs “My Angel” (1991) and “Constellation” (1994), ARCTURUS finally released their debut album “Aspera Hiems Symfonia” in 1996. The Norwegians derived their name from the brightest star of the Northern hemisphere and were obviously influenced by the massively expanding black metal scene of their homeland. Already featuring such well-known protagonists as ULVER’s Garm and MAYHEM’s Hellhammer, the line-up on “Aspera Hiems Symfonia” saw Samoth replaced by excellent guitarist Carl August Tidemann and outstanding ULVER bass player Hugh “Skoll” Mingay also joining the band. Despite their audible black roots, ARCTURUS clearly begged to differ by daring to experiment and adding an avant-garde twist with strange sonorous vocals complementing those piercing shrieks, Sverd’s cinematic keyboards, the technical guitar solos, and more elements that to this day mark the band from Oslo as progressive innovators.

Arcturus (NOR) – Constellation / My Angel LP €32.88
Black Metal
Having grown out of the Norwegian Death Metal band MORTEM, ARCTURUS emerged under the irresistible influence of Oslo’s creatively bursting and fast rising underground black metal scene officially with the two-track 7″ “My Angel” (1991). With then-guitarist and formidable keyboard player Sverd and MAYHEM drum-beast Hellhammer at its core, vocals were first contributed by Marius Vold, who also sang on the legendary THORNS demo “The Thule Tape”. While still very much influenced by death metal, the addition of doom-laden slowness and eerie keyboards already pointed into a far blacker cosmos. On the four tracks of the original 1994 “Constellation” EP, ULVER’s Garm had taken over the vocal duties and Samoth from EMPEROR had joined the band on guitar. Yet, ARCTURUS already went off the (in reality quite wide-ranged) black metal norms mainly due to Sverd’s keyboard arrangements that were pre-shadowing the trademark theatrical or circus-like style the Norwegians adopted on their following albums.

Arcturus (NOR) – La Masquerade Infernale LP €30.88
Black Metal
On their sophomore full-length “La Masquerade Infernale” (1997), ARCTURUS took their musical experimenting three ambitious steps further. The Norwegians succeeded in wedding a devilish concept loosely based on the characters of Faust and Mephistopheles with an eclectic range of surreal sound elements into an album that is rightfully considered a prime example of what later came to be known as avant-garde metal. From quoting Edgar Allan Poe in operatic paraphrases by frontman Garm (ULVER) or the additional high notes from the unmistakable I.C.S. Vortex (BORKNAGAR) via the spaced-out electronic samples, classical instrumentation, and an even increased use of psychedelic guitar riffage alongside more “traditional” black and death metal elements. Brilliant guitarist Knut Magne Valle replaced Carl August Tideman, which brought stability to this position of the band’s line-up. ARCTURUS aimed dangerously high with “La Masquerade Infernale” – but remarkably pulled off the extremely difficult feat of forging such widely differing elements into a wildly fascinating, over the top listening experience that has stood the test of time and surely deserves to be labelled a “masterpiece”.
Gatefold LP (black vinyl) incl. poster, padded inner sleeve and protection sleeve.

Armagedda (SWE) – Only True Believers LP €26.88
Black Metal
Pillars of the early 2000s black metal underground, Sweden’s ARMAGEDDA exuded an authentically ancient air despite their youthful years. The black metal underground back then was a purer, more traditionalist iteration of what it is today, and within that staunchly ideological landscape did ARMAGEDDA prove their fiery intent with their 2001 debut album, The Final War Approaching, and more so with its follow-up in 2003, Only True Believers – the title itself a statement of intent, naturally. Alas, as many passionate young men are wont to do, the duo of A. and Graav became restless with the shackles of supposedly “true” black metal and began plotting their next move, one that would drive deeper into the true heart of “black metal” whilst exhibiting the unorthodoxy of approach that once endeared the genre to sonic revolutionaries. And while that would manifest in the band’s third and final album, the shockingly mature Ond Spiritism, it is with Only True Believers where ARMAGEDDA found the perfect synthesis of ideology and imagination.

Ascète (FRA) – Calamites & Les Calamités LP €26.88
Black Metal
Calamites & les Calamités is the first full-length of Ascète. Through a rusty black metal, joyfully old, Ascète gives its vision of a forgotten and forlorn countryside, where the small poor people of campains slowly die in the indifference of big cities administrations. Melodic Black metal with punk/oï influences, Calamites & les Calamités haunts us in ridiculously difform Perigord legends, carried by the decadent proclamations howled in an almost ruined, out of age barn… (vocals were actually recorded there).
The magnificent work on guitars and sound will carry you in a forgotten countryside, where an aging population, almost feral and animal-looking, discretly and suspiciously wanders in its misery. Among the remains of minor historical landmark monuments, which returns to Earth, too. Slower, maybe, but in the same definitive manner.
Limited to 150 handnumbered. With lyrics insert.

Askeregn (NOR) – Brennende Aakres Groede LP €26.88
Black Metal
Continuing where their 2015 debut album Monumenter left off, Brennende åkres grøde has been harvested from the trembling blood soaked earth and carved out from the rotting veil that so far separates our world from the infinite empty blackness.
With over 40 minutes of ferocious, ugly and tormented Black Metal, ASKEREGN remains true to their unpleasant approach to the genre, yet still able to develop their sound further in their own chaotic and hallucinatory ways. It is obvious: this can only be ASKEREGN.
