Founded in 2004, Finsterforst have released 5 albums and 2 EPs so far. Starting as a folk metal act with high usage of accordion, the band has evolved its sound to some kind of epic and cinematic mix of post, post black, black and folk metal featuring an enormous range of different singing styles and heavy riffing. The band itself calls this sound Black Forest Metal, referencing their roots in the Black Forest region. During the covid pandemic Finsterforst asked their fans to help funding a new EP with only one song clocking in at almost 40 minutes. The fans came to help, Jenseits was born. Definitely not made for streaming, Finsterforst continue to go their own way of creating mind-bending art that will stand the test of time. The new mini album has only one song clocking in at almost 40 minutes. This album is divided into 4 chapters.
Gatefold Double LP on black vinyl & with inlay.
For more than two decades, Finsterforst have been shaping their own distinctive voice within extreme metal, continuously evolving both musically and lyrically without ever losing their core identity. Their sound merges elements from a wide spectrum of heavy music — from black and folk-inspired roots to epic, atmospheric and post-metal influences — forming a style they refer to as “Black Forest Metal”: a blend that feels both deeply rooted and entirely its own.
Rather than fitting into a single label, their music thrives on contrast and fusion: crushing heaviness meets vast, cinematic atmospheres; raw aggression unfolds into melancholic, emotional depth; and monumental arrangements carry a sense of both intimacy and scale. While often described in broader terms as epic, atmospheric or post-influenced extreme metal, Finsterforst deliberately transcend genre boundaries.
The result is a sound that is brutally powerful yet richly layered, where sadness, rage, triumph and grandeur coexist within expansive compositions. Driven by constant progression and a refusal to stand still, Finsterforst continue to refine a vision that is as immersive as it is unmistakable

Are you ready to be initiated by the four archetypes within?
With these songs, Sowulo founder Faber Horbach intentionally invokes his inner Warrior, Lover, King and Magician and hopes it will help you to do the same. This album is all about growing into a mature human being by connecting with the power of the four archetypes, and consciously walking together with them on the adventure we call the wheel of life. These compositions express his interpretation of the four archetypes which he connects to the four seasons within and without, and so they follow the cyclical nature of mann.
‘MANN’ was initially released in August 2019; composed and produced by Faber Horbach. The album has amassed over 2,6M streams.
With immersive songs, Sowulo celebrates our great pagan legacy and takes an inner spiritual journey. The lyrics and the music, created with (early) medieval and contemporary instruments combined with cinematic sounds and voice, invoke archetypical wisdom and express the cyclical nature of existence.
Sowulo is a project formed by the Dutch multi-instrumentalist, composer and producer Faber Horbach. With a great passion for music, history and shamanism, Faber has a need for creating melancholic and meaningful songs full of spirit and depth, he has inspired thousands of listeners around the world to connect with their cyclical and spiritual nature through his music.
CD in deluxe 6-panel Digipak printed on unfinished, heavy card stock.
SOWULO is the musical project of Dutch composer Faber Horbach, rooted in the spiritual philosophy of ancient Northern Europe and built around a remarkable range of historical instruments. Originally self-released in 2016, ‘Sol’ now found its home in the Season of Mist catalogue.
Named after the Norse sun goddess whose horses pull the chariot of light across the sky while the wolf Sköll gives eternal chase, ‘Sol’ is an album conceived as both myth and calendar. Its thirteen tracks trace the pagan year wheel from its beginning—the primordial void of Ginnungagap—through the eight seasonal festivals, and out the other side into the closing gallop of Arvakr and Alsvidr, the sun goddess's two horses. Where SOWULO's debut ‘Alvenrad’ was orchestral and piano-led, ‘Sol’ strips everything back to an acoustic core built on bouzouki, hammered dulcimer, nyckelharpa, Celtic harp, viola, and woodwinds. The effect is less meditative weight and more kinetic celebration: the same mythological territory, mapped with lighter feet and a more rhythmic pulse. Chloé Bakker's harp opens a new harmonic dimension, Pan Bartkowiak's percussion provides a dancing undercurrent, and Klaartje van Zwoll's viola and vocals weave through the arrangements with chamber-music precision. The result is something CeltCast aptly described as "pagan folk meets chamber music"—earthy and ceremonial, but also intimate and finely crafted.
This is music with a structural logic as much as an atmospheric one, each track a seasonal marker in a larger cosmological cycle.
For fans of WARDRUNA, HEILUNG, DANHEIM, EIVØR.

CD in classic jewel case with 12-page booklet incl. all lyrics, plus a designed album download card.
Composed during the pandemic-induced lockdown period of 2020/2021, "Isolation" features some of ColdWorld's most expressive compositions to date. Managing to transcend the conventional sounds pursued in what is best described as the "ambient/depressive" black metal subgenre, ColdWorld's newest sonic endeavor draws listeners into an incredibly immersive soundscape, rife with lush classical instrumentation and ethereal, yet occasionally harrowing vocals, the first of which is showcased brilliantly on the album's second track "Soundtrack to Isolation".
Clearly, this music is a truly honest and emotional representation of what the project's sole mastermind G.B. has experienced these past years. As such, the songs that comprise "Isolation" ebb and flow effortlessly, with even seemingly lengthy track durations being navigated masterfully by G.B.'s approach to songwriting and track placement. Throughout "Isolation", listeners may notice influences ranging from more traditional black metal and immensely heavy doom fused with post-rock leanings along the lines of Godspeed You! Black Emperor. Of particular note is the use of classical string instrumentation and guitar lead harmonies that harken back to early My Dying Bride. However, it is the fusion of these elements and their interpretation through the creative mind that allows to confront listeners with an incredibly individualistic sound.
The creative and diverse vocal work featuring layered clean vocals, harrowing wails, a fascinating form of what is possibly throat singing as well as profoundly deep growls give "Isolation" an unmistakable edge over many of ColdWorld's contemporaries in a rather crowded scene. As such, listeners are sure to return to these eight tracks regularly, as this work is not easily grasped in its entirety on a first listen. Although it makes a staggering first impression, this record demands to be experienced repeatedly.
15 years anniversary edition.

Music is 100% same as before (no remastering etc!). cover artwork is slightly different - like it has been in most pressings. No new additions. just adjusted old graphics. Significant difference would be that cover is 8 page booklet with all lyrics. including also previously unseen outro lyrics!
