Evolution is a long and complex process, which requires several, if not many different phases. Hornwood Fell, from the woods of central Italy, now reach the third landmark in their career, and keep on changing.
Sharp riffs are now mixed with more intricate patterns, the odd psychedelic hints sprout here and there, but what is mostly surprising is a completely new approach to vocals. Spanning from crystal-clean singing in the vein of bands like Novembre, to darker, harsher performances, this new approach brings the band way farther from the Norwegian forests of their beginnings and leads them towards personal, uncharted lands.
The straight, uncompromising yet derivative attitude of their self-titled debut has become more surprising, unpredictable and varied.

There's always a point, a velocity. Little is the pleasure. It has the cold, the atmosphere. It fucks you on the snow.

Cioran, from the monicker who calls into question the homonymous Romanian philosopher, evoke the cumbersome burden of the tragic existence of existence. The new Divine Bestial Beast, released three years later by the EP in the cassette for the American Caligari Records, is a step further than the nihilistic wave that has permeated so much music lately and has become a Sticky sticker label on the right and missing. No space for moments of light, this is clear, but their concept is more about a Gnostic dualism of duality expressed by hermetic lyrics. We talk about the paradox of the coexistence of the bestial and the divine, of their balance within an organism, that is, of the man tout cour

Dressed again in sci-fi / space aesthetic by renowned visual artist Alexander Preuss, Progenie Terrestre Pura, or in short q[T]p, return after a few years hiatus with their second album 'oltreLuna'.
Powered by consistant line-up changes and additions, Davide -q[T]p former member- armed all weapons of the spaceship in order to repeat success after the much acclaimed debut album 'U.M.A.' (2013).
Paying much more attention to every small detail during recording and production, the band managed to capture a more organic and "real" sound, and although keeping their atmospheric nature, dared to explore what we couldn't foresee before (like the use of ethnic sounds), resulting more aggressive yet more sophisticated at the same time.
'oltreLuna' shows a relevant step-further since its predecessor, taking profit of new elements left unexplored during their first astral journey and thus avoiding to close themselves in the debut album's gold and self celebration and by all means drawing the basis of a bright future

While Selvans are full time working on the second full-length, Avantgarde Music is going to celebrate the closing of the first chapter of the band activity with a special release (for the meaning and the feature): the live album 'Hirpi'.
The album consists of four tracks covering the three Selvans releases plus the live cover of Draugr's 'Furore Pagano' as a tribute to the past.
The album has been recorded during two live performances in Pescara: on April, 23rd 2016, during a special concert in memory of Jonny Morelli - Selvans former singer and drummer - and on December, 16th of the same year.
The line-up is Haruspex and Fulguriator plus live session musicians: Acheron (guitar), Cordyceps M (bass) and HK (drums).
Draugr's ex members Triumphator (guitar) and Stolas (bass) joined Selvans on stage to perform 'Furore Pagano'.
The Faun's procession on the artwork has been conceived by Haruspex and made by the italian artist Umberto D'Ottavio.
Emotionally raw and brutally savage release following in the tradition of 2015's Arpitanian Lands. Enisum have managed to mix elements of atmospheric black metal and doom metal into ten perfect songs for this album.

"Aelter continue their curious and darkly glorious odyssey with an album brimming with desert drones, ghost-town Morricone, gothic tumbleweeds, blackened Badalamenti, sepulchral lounge music, campfire ballads from the grave, galactic shimmers, ominous swamp waltz and what feels like the black lodge version of John Lurie".

“Sun and moon, the perfect opposites.
A dualism from which every couples of opposites of the known universe springs. A duality observed and widely studied, sung and represented in several ways during past eras.
The aim of this Opus in four acts is to give another interpretation of this dichotomy, permeated by the typical elements which characterize our projects: different from each other for their variety but at the same time similar and joined an unanimous evocation of the past"
I. Intro/ SOL
II. Selvans – Pater Surgens
III. Downfall of Nur – Mater Universi
IV. Outro/ LUNA
Downfall of Nur and Selvans, together as one.
This is not a split album, but a concept album composed and recorded by both bands, also performing on each other's tracks.

3 sides recorded, the new Sordide album on black wax!
Ruvidi ma in pieno controllo dei loro strumenti, i francesi Sordide inizialmente vi ricorderanno l'arroganza attitudinale quasi "punk" dei loro ben noti connazionali Peste Noir, ma in realtà sotto questo esordio, "La France a peur", si cela molto di più.
Le parti di chitarra sono semplicemente sensazionali e conferiscono alla band di fatto un sound assolutamente personale ed innovativo per quanto semplicemente catalogabile come 'black metal', a dimostrazione che l'avanguardia in musica sta più nell'idea e nella visione che non nelle realizzazioni

Sordide second album to be released on a digipack CD on 5.10.2016 and co-released on a joint-venture of labels on double vinyl format in November (details to follow soon)
