As the cold season returns, Hypnotic Dirge Records is proud to announce the brand new studio album by Canadian death doom band Norilsk.
The quartet has assembled a brand new chapter in the band’s discography, building on the characteristics that made Norilsk what it is today while offering something undeniably contemporary. The new album, Antipole, picks up where 2022’s EP Beyond the Mountains left: with its slow doomy riffs, cold melodies, recognizable death growls, and a hint of post-metal atmosphere brought by a dual guitar interplay. While offering rewarding surprises to those who have been following the band since its beginnings, this album is also a major step forward for the band, and an ideal point of entry to anyone new to the band or death doom in general.
Norilsk is known for its unique take on winter doom, where cultures and nordicity provide a backdrop for addressing other deeper concepts such as loss, mental illness, or identity with the land. On its new album Antipole, the artist explores the concept of duality. The album flows between slow and faster songs, and highlights the contrasts in death and doom, with its beauty and tragedy, harshness and fragility, light and darkness, reality and fiction, and its gravity and ethereality.
Originally released in 2017 and out of print for many years, NONE's selftitled debut quickly left a mark upon dsbm listeners and was the beginning of a run of consistent high-quality releases culminating in the final album "Inevitable". From the opening notes of NONE's debut, a chilling and despondent atmosphere enveloped the listener weaving piercing guitars with haunting synth pads and minimalist melodies
The fourth and final pressing of NONE's selftitled album is now available, released for the first time alongside unreleased reimaginings of the first two songs that became NONE
With Hesperia, his second album, Kval delivers a more intimate piece — without compromising the universal scope of his vision.
In conversation with figures such as Ernst Jünger, Hermann Hesse, Jean Cau, and David Engels, the album is a love letter to his continent of origin: Europe, which he chooses to rename Hesperia, as the Ancients once did.
This record celebrates the primal magic of European paganism alongside the beauty and truth of Christianity. It strives for a reconciliation between these two foundational poles of European identity — an immersion into its light, its grandeur, and its melancholy. From the anti-modern epic Waldgänger to the mystical stillness of Lux Meae, Morte France delivers a more luminous record here — one marked by hope and vital impulse, without ever renouncing the project’s original radicalism.

An album in which you are the Hero
L'album prend tout son sens sur CD. Ici, c'est une version tronquée avec seulement les pièces metal. L'Arrivée, premier titre, est donnée à des fins de découverte de l'ambiance du CD. L'album prend toute sa dimension sous sa forme disque pour profiter pleinement de l'aspect jeu d'aventure.

An album in which you are the Hero
The new Hyver album is a concept-album in which YOU are the hero. Arriving before a castle, you are offered choices in arborescent paths giving you the opportunity to actually choose the rooms in which you wish to wander. In Shaâtaunoâr there is only one goal for you : escape! To exit this horrible castle, you have to make wise choices and find the path to the outside. The choices music are dungeon synth interludes with the story told by either Virginie Ropars (french sculptress and artist, she does the english version) or David Thiérrée (french version, illustrator and painter). When entering to a room, the music becomes a fierce and epic blend of dungeon synth and black metal to describe you the rooms in which you wander.
