Transilvanian Glare (LP)

Arnaut Pavle

Absolutely killer black metal front to back. A vicious, uncompromising attitude overlaying haunting melodies that never veer into the saccharine, weepy territory occupied by lesser purveyors of the genre. Read more

Disharmonium - Nahab (LP)

Blut Aus Nord

Vindsval returns with another slab of oneiric black death. At once wonderous and terrifying, this record swims in the deepest waters of the collective unconscious and shows you just enough to give the impression that the horrors are not man-made, but are indeed beyond comprehension. Read more

Call of the Knife (LP)

Chain Whip

Easily my favorite contemporary hardcore band. Smart, straightforward, quick and righteously pissed. Canadians just do it better. Read more

Black Star Gnosis (LP)

Demoncy

Demoncy remerge from the shadows to do what they do best. Sinister, serpentine riffing drenched in murk and rot. Sounds the best on the darkest days. Read more

Servants of Sorcery (LP)

Fimbulwinter

One of black metal's best kept secrets. Before founding Dimmu Borgir, Shagrath and two cohorts recorded this sole full-length of blistering raw black mayhem. Though bootlegged a handful of times since its initial release in 1994, this is the first official reissue in nearly thirty years. Get yours while you can cuz you don't wanna wait another thirty! Read more

Hollow Psalms (LP)

Ludicra

One of comparatively few records in the world of extreme metal to be released in the early 00's and be worth anyone's time. But "Hollow Psalms" isn't just worth your time. It demands your time as it is some of the most compelling black metal of its time or any time. Read more

Skarpretterfossilet (LP)

Broder

Where the hell did this come from?! I never bothered checking this out cuz the internet describes them as "Drone/Doom/Noise" which is all fine and dandy, but I don't smoke *that* much weed anymore. I need riffs to hold my attention. This delivers in the vein of early Teitanblood with far more competent musicianship. Something is rotten in Denmark. Read more

Anno Domini (LP)

Tormentor

Before achieving notoriety as the vocalist on Mayhem's "De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas" Attila Csihar fronted Hungarian maniacs Tormentor. Though stylistically removed from the common perception of black metal, Tormentor are nonetheless pillars of its foundational roots. Anno Domini, their second full-length demo, exemplifies this perfectly, employing sinister riffing, morbid and blasphemous lyrical themes, and raw intensity, all steeped in eerie majesty. Presented on Attila's own imprint, Saturnus Productions. Read more
