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.
A work of bleak grandeur, elemental force and restless transformation, Marrow Of The Spirit marked the beginning of a new chapter in the history of AGALLOCH.
Mixed at Klangschmiede Studio E and newly mastered by Gus Elg, this 2026 reissue edition brings the album's original vision closer to the foreground. Stock focused on the emotional impact of the recording and on the way its instruments merge into one enveloping soundscape.

Eight years after the acclaimed Slow Motion Death Sequence, Norwegian experimental visionaries Manes return with To Burn Is To Shine, their sixth full-length album and the beginning of a new chapter in a career defined by fearless artistic evolution. Since their inception in Trondheim in 1992, Manes have consistently refused to remain confined within stylistic boundaries. Emerging from the early Norwegian black metal underground with the cult debut Under Ein Blodraud Maane, the band soon embarked on a remarkable transformation that culminated in the landmark Vilosophe, an album that would become one of the defining statements of avant-garde metal. Throughout the following decades, Manes have continued to blur the lines between metal, dark electronica, alternative rock, trip-hop and experimental music, developing a sound that remains unmistakably their own.
To Burn Is To Shine also features contributions from several distinguished guests, including Ana Carolina Skaret (Mourning Sun), Eskil Blix (Djevel, Vemod), Marita Hellem (Enevelde), Rune Folgerø (Atrox, Drontheim) and Tom Christian Engelsøy (Drontheim), while Vegar Larsen (Whoredom Rife) performs drums on two tracks. The striking visual identity of the album has been created by New York-based designer Michael Houtz, whose handcrafted artwork extends across the physical editions and accompanying merchandise.

Rooted in a sombre, tragic and epic expression of Doom-infused Melodic Black Metal, “Cursed Songs from the Garden of Twilight” carries a style hard to link to other specific bands. THE SCARS IN PNEUMA (brought forth by Lorenzo Marchello, ex-Kolony Records) blends stunning melodies and dramatic atmospheres, interweaving them within structures balanced between slow/fast-paced rhythms and haunting interludes, resulting in a continous unfolding of compositional details. Cavernous growling vocals float above the instrumental flow, enhancing the stream of emotions in intensity.
Rooted in atmospheric black metal and post-depressive black metal, “A Caress of Autumn for All the Lost” refuses to remain confined within genre boundaries. Balzarini continuously shifts between textures and dynamics, allowing songs to unfold through subtle transformations rather than predictable contrasts. Instead of relying on the conventional loud-quiet formula, each composition develops organically, revealing unexpected turns while maintaining a remarkable sense of cohesion. Throughout the album, delicate melodic brushstrokes occasionally recall the melancholic elegance of fellow Italian visionaries Novembre, enriching an already expansive emotional palette.
The result is a work enveloped in an autumnal melancholy that permeates every note. Its atmosphere is fragile yet piercing, intimate yet expansive, balancing moments of despair with glimpses of fragile beauty. Every transition feels purposeful, every melody carefully placed, allowing the album to flow naturally from beginning to end without sacrificing intensity or emotional depth.
