Norwegian Grammy-Winning rock band Seigmen are back with a new album called “Resonans” on May 3rd, 2024.

Ask yourself the question: How many bands have maintained the same lineup throughout a career spanning over three decades? Just count and see how far you get. Seigmen is and remains Alex, Sverre, Noralf, Kim, and Marius.

Seigmen's new album Resonans echoes the essence of a longstanding friendship. A strong bond among five guys who found each other through music, learned to play instruments, and express themselves together. They solidified their friendship through muddy and sour tones from the rehearsal room on the old submarine quay, down into a basement in the city center, out to a barn outside the city, up on the heights near the old library, down into the mountain beneath the same hill, and back to a rehearsal container at the old shipyard. Always tied to their home town, Tønsberg in Norway.

Resonans is the reverberation of endless evening rehearsals, weekends with “lefse” and freshly ground coffee in thermoses, and syncopations. Smiles, conversations, and gossip. The hard, precise, and long-term work. Love and art.

Resonans is guts and integrity, demonstrating the uncompromising nature that Seigmen has always represented.

…When we entered The Below World, we found the human inhabitants divided into subnormal primal groupings of savage and superstitious tribes who collectively worshipped the machines that oppressed them. Sacrificial offerings of living martyrs were made to the Mechanica in order to appease them of their remorseless and emotionless rancour.

The humans had resorted to primeval idolatry behaviours that put them in awe of the undiminishing energy source of the Plasner System—a great churning ball of heat and light that pulsated over them in the upper echelons of the principal chamber. It became clear to us, meanwhile, that they had lost all awareness of the overground world and that, for them, the limits of the universe were confined to the depths of their subterranean enclosure.

"Right there before his very eyes was a window into another version of reality; like a looking-glass only looking back upon himself basking in the triumph of succeeding in his life's work. The collider beeped again and another window appeared; now looking upon a new version of himself, but in this world, the experiment had failed. With each beep, another window appeared, each time revealing further, more extreme divergences and with each new world the windows grew in size."
Excerpt from Booklet
 

Skrika presents his third album on Cryo Chamber, Vyeltyra Vortex. A masterfully crafted cinematic dark ambient experience continuing to expand on the universe that started with the album Fifth Nature.

The Yn, having fled from a dying Earth, have charted their own path of exploration to that of Cerria and her followers, searching for a new home. Worshipping the mystical natural powers of the universe, the Yn have travelled to a myriad of planets seeking enlightenment. Every new civilisation they encounter speak in awe of Vyeltyra-B, and of the mysterious and secretive Vyeltyrans — a race that can control time — the chrononsphere. The Yn quickly discover that rather than a path to enlightenment, on Vyeltyra-B a path awaits of a far darker kin

Caldon Glover presents us their Cryo Chamber debut album "Ùir". A haunting collection of dark ritualistic explorations of pre-Roman Celtic tribes lost in time. They evoke an atmosphere of stone covered hills and gnarled trees in the mist, and create a sense of what could have been, a timeline where the history of the Picts took a different path.

A journey through bleak windswept moors and the dark mountains of the highlands. Each track captures the raw power and majesty of Gaelic temples and ancient woods.

Recommended for fans of ritualistic drumming and dark minimalistic cinematic music.

Ephemeral's debut album "Into Being" is a vivid tale of gloom and radiance. Musically anchored into a rich, layered and timeless progressive/dark-folk, with lyrics inspired by English literature from various centuries as well as by reflections on human longing, growth and nature. In the band's own words: "Each song, in its own way, deals with the shedding of one’s old skin for a new one, following the path toward the unknown, and the beauty of letting go to give rise to new beginnings within the cyclical nature of life".

"Purple" with clear, marble effect vinyl

By Magnus' own words "The origin and exact recording date of these two tracks are a mystery to me: I don't know when or why or how I made them" you can expect something unique from this release.
