Judiciously prizing quality over quantity, Ifrinn return with yet another release, this time titled Caledonian Black Magick. Indeed an ever-apt description of the hypnotic rhythms created by Ifrinn – and one this constellation has established since the beginning – Caledonian Black Magick is both an intensification and consolidation of its no-less-considerable predecessor. Here, the attack is sharpened to an enviable degree, finesse meeting fury headlong, as each catacomb-esque creation expands onward and outward. The vortex of sound Ifrinn create across this EP is akin to levitational hypnosis: undeniably physical in its approach, sometimes overwhelmingly so, but a paralysis of subconscious and spirit that’s paradoxically liberating and intoxicating. Despite its Highland origins, Ifrinn are without geography nor era; authentic black metal orthodoxy knows no boundaries, and its windswept splendor is timeless.

Parting ways with HETROERTZEN in late 2021, bassist Ham continued down a path of his own, and as the sole composer “Tristan Moreau”, he founded DER TRAUERSCHWAN the same year in the Swedish town Västerås.
The debut album “Sanguinare Vampiris” is the completion of poetry & song that was written during the past two pandemic years.
Inspired by the English poets of the romantic era, lyrical themes explore the naked diary of a vampire, and while musically a bleak conjunction between 90’s black- and doom metal, the harmonic teachings of classical musical theory also have a certain impact.
With influences reaching from Summoning to My Dying Bride, DER TRAUERSCHWAN provides a unique blend of somber doom- and black metal, with vampiric-themed lyrics expressed through haunting songwriting.

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!

Reigning in an abysmal realm of chaos and destruction comes the reigniting of a familiar entity’s flame. A true symbol of devotion to Lo-fi black metal is being displayed by this entity obscured by a void of darkness. OLD CASTLES fades into the shadows with another release full of chaos and atmosphere. “Sarcophagical Lament of the Past” is the next full-length offering from this project of mysticism. Lo-fi raw black metal with depressive ambience, shrouded in atmosphere and walls of sinister dissonance. A true imprecation of indefinite evil and desolation.

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.
