2018 album finally back ! SWEDEATH ffo EDGE OF SANITY
 

Melancholic post-black metal f.f.o. KARG, HARAKIRI FOR THE SKY etc.
 

• For fans of Disembowelment, Spectral Voice, Mortiferum, Mournful Congregation, Evoken, Indesinence

Italy’s Assumption return with Paradox of the Arrow, a new descent into the strange temporal architecture of death doom. Since their earliest recordings the band have treated the genre less as a monolith set in stone than a space in which mass, duration and atmosphere can be manipulated. On Paradox of the Arrow that process advances further, stretching the apparent distance between one moment and the next time itself dissipates into an altered abstraction.

Assumption’s immense low-end foundations remain, but the band’s heaviness is rarely a matter of density alone. Riffs unfurl geologically, like the convergent boundary to a subduction zone, before abruptly accelerating into passages of violent death metal, only to collapse again into long intervals of suspension, dissonant guitar resonance and spectral ambience. Guttural vocals emerge from deep within while drums alternately measure out enormous spaces and rupture them without warning. Melody appears in oblique fragments rather than conventional resolution, and psychedelic details flicker at the margins, where quiet stillness can feel as consequential as impact and the vibrations of beauty and dread dissolve into an amorphous shimmering light.

For this new assault, DEATH KOMMANDER entered the studio to completely re-record all four tracks from their 2018 demo „Summer Offensive“. As an added bonus, two tracks from their debut album „Pro Patria Mori“ have also been given a full studio overhaul, delivering even more firepower to this relentless campaign.
Expect merciless, brutal death metal in the finest Bolt Thrower tradition, heavy riffs, crushing grooves, and an atmosphere drenched in the smoke of war. Sharpen your bayonets, prepare your defenses, and brace yourselves for the next offensive.

DISCOURAGED deliver a compelling blend of Death Doom Metal that combines crushing heaviness, haunting melancholy and memorable melodies. Drawing inspiration from the early days of Anathema, Paradise Lost and Katatonia while injecting the raw power of Death Metal, their debut album „A Farewell In Stages“ offers an atmospheric, emotional and distinctly modern take on the genre.
The cover artwork by Gustave Doré dates back to 1866 and features a detail from his work „Naomi and her Daughters-in-Law“. The album was recorded at DorMaKlang Studios, mixed and mastered by Matthias Lohmöller.

Lim. RED MARBLE DLP

Cult full-length from 2000 finally available again on DLP.

Very well made fan-club edition, gatefold, UV spot and poster. 

Originally released in 1997, Mellom Skogkledde Aaser stands as one of the most important early works of Norwegian pagan black metal. 

Combining raw black metal intensity with evocative folk-inspired passages, Kampfar forged a unique sound deeply rooted in Nordic heritage, mythology, and nature. 

Widely regarded as a classic of the genre, the album remains a defining statement of the band's artistic vision. 

This new reissue marks the first return of the record since the previous pressing released fifteen years ago, making it available once again to collectors and dedicated followers. 

A timeless and essential release, Mellom Skogkledde Aaser continues to exemplify the enduring spirit of the Norwegian underground.
