Returning with Nedstigning, their debut full-length, Gjendød walks further down the snow-covered path into history-minded obscurity. “Håpet Falmer” continues mysterious musicians K and KK’s stylistic fence-treading, balancing their cold, riff-based songwriting with unsettling moments of clattering discord and dime-turn rhythmic changes. The adrenal, savage black metal offered by Gjendød masterfully fuses these two disparate, but still wholly Norse black metal lineages

Heavy, blues-based rock that you can dance to!
Quebec rockers Tonnerre emerge with La nuit sauvage, a heavy dose 70s-inspired rock that takes cues from AC/DC and Blue Öyster Cult—complete with French-sung lyrics!
There is something in the air in rural Quebec, Canada. Known for its deep, long winters, not to mention its thick, unyielding forests, Quebec’s pastoral beauty evokes the kind of prolonged, deep-into-the-night gatherings by a fire (with some libations, too) that some can only dream about. But for the members of Tonnerre, it is part of the fabric that brought them together to create a timeless form of blues-based rock that bobs the head and shakes the hips. The band’s debut album, La nuit sauvage, was created from the very nights the band spent in the countryside with friends, drinking the aforementioned beer while telling stories and listening to music. And like night itself, La nuit sauvage is an album that gets darker and more mysterious as it unfolds.

Los Angeles doom crew Stygian Crown returns with their long-awaited sophomore album, Funeral for a King, a formidable LP built upon the foundation of epic doom and death metal
Red vinyl with black spaltter limited to 200 copies.
Zwielicht exists as such since 2002, but was called Gordem beforehand. It was not until 2005 the unholy legion decided to rebaptize to the name Zwielicht, which lasts until to this day. The first physical emanation was a self released demo tape in 2006: "Leibestod". Onwards and downwards the spiral the next was in 2010 when the first EP – Unholy Legion - was released via the very own label Back to the Bone which was also founded in said year. Zwielicht’s debut album, With love from Sinister, was released on CD in 2014, on Tape in 2015 and in 2022 on Vinyl and as a special Tape version. The latter two were published by Idiots Records and Ancient Spirit Terror. In the same year the unholy legion started the recordings for their sophomore album which will see its first light on 9th February 2024.

"Depressive Silence was founded by RAL & B.S. from Mightiest in 1994. The band is one of the cult acts and forerunners of the Dungeon Synth genre alongside Mortiis and Jim Kirkwood.
When Depressive Silence split up and RAL & B.S. created their individual Dungeon Synth projects, B.S. founded Solanum and RAL founded Gothmog. So these were the follow-up projects of Depressive Silence back in the 90s, and their releases are also being reissued by Northern Silence in remastered form and with new, exclusive artwork by master artist David Thiérée.
Gothmog only ever released one demo, entitled ""Medieval Journeys"", back in 1998. It featured 7 songs of old school Dungeon Synth that will no doubt appeal to fans of Depressive Silence as well. This re-release also includes an intro that was not part of the original release."
California death metal force Apparition return with their new album Disgraced Emanations From A Tranquil State. The follow-up to 2021’s lauded Feel sees the band traverse further into the realms of otherworldly doom-riddled progressive dark death metal.
Since the conception of the band, Apparition has been about creating an individualized version of death metal, all the while paying homage to its ancestors. Disgraced Emanations From A Tranquil State offers a dynamic range, from the brutal to the beautiful: a still, expanding glimpse into the band’s canon, a lathe of infinite death remaking itself—horrific and pristine.
Disgraced Emanations From A Tranquil State was produced by Apparition bassist Taylor Young (Twitching Tongues, Deadbody) in The Pit Recording Studio and Electrical Audio respectively and mastered by Nick Townsend at Infrasonic Sound.

Gestated in 2023, STENCHED emanate from the sewers of the city of Monterrey, in northern Mexico. There, Adrián - the band's only member, who's also in Impending Rot and Excretory - released their first demo, Gorging on Mephitic Rot first digitally and then on CD.
The atmosphere of death and decay can be smelled from the first seconds of this recording. The muddy sound, the barbaric riffs, the gross art, and the primitive lyrics are a tribute to everything that surrounds the underground circuit where the death metal genre began in the '90s. STENCHED is about death, putridity, and gore: simple as that.

With their sophomore album Imperative Imperceptible Impulse, Ad Nauseam took a step forward in terms of composition, musical structures and sound. Music is not intended as a mere sequence of riffs that sounds well one after the other, but is now a naturally ordered structure where almost every musical event refers to the past and/or predicts the future, generating very layered and complex patterns dominated by polyphony and polyrhythms and where each instrument has its own role and is essential in the whole. The music represents a merging of many different styles, the most prominent ones being extreme death/black metal, avantgarde, jazz, post-core, doom/sludge and ambient.
The composition process of Imperative Imperceptible Impulse has been heavily influenced by 20th century classical composers like Stravinsky, Šostakóvič, Xenakis, Scelsi, Penderecki and Ligeti, to name a few. Both the concepts of harmony and melody have been put into discussion to get a music where harmony is obtained by means of disharmony and melody by dissonances. To push this method even further, a unique tuning system has been conceived, to allow a new harmonic vocabulary and to eradicate the players from the comfort zone of the usual melodic patterns every guitar/bass player is used to.
The band is a new project from the musicians behind cult acts like Drudkh, Old Silver Key, Blood of Kingu, Dark Ages and more, but Rattenfänger is a different beast entirely.
The debut album, entitled “Epistolae Obscurorum Virorum”, is a masterpiece of old-school death metal. Rattenfänger’s sound is pitch black and bone crushingly brutal. It is Death Metal in its original form – and it is devastating. Inevitably there will be nuances from the members other projects, and comparisons can also be made with bands such as Celtic Frost, early Darkthrone, Asphyx, Winter, Bolt Thrower and Nihilist amongst others, but Rattenfänger, is the epitome of old-school death metal and the album has its own, very distinctive, sound.

Formed in 2011, Italy’s INTO DARKNESS have been a work in progress for the last decade-plus. Led by vocalist / guitarist Doomed Warrior from the very beginning, the band have a handful of demos, a couple splits, and now a couple EPs to their name; while all short-lengths, they’re certainly not lacking in quality. And while they’ve experienced a few hiatuses and just as many lineup shuffles, INTO DARKNESS are now poised to make up for lost time Cassini – Huygens.
As suggested by its title, Cassini – Huygens is the latest cosmic tale from the increasingly space-obsessed INTO DARKNESS. But lest one expect this EP to travel among tech-death starts, Doomed Warrior and her space-crew stick to staunchly old-school death metal in the vein of Asphyx, Pentacle, and early Soulburn, brimming with the thematic splendor of space rather than being entirely overrun by it. Totaling 27 minutes of music, the EP’s five tracks encompass a concept based on the Cassini-Huygens space mission to Saturn: an immersive journey in the most exciting interplanetary mission ever done. Blast off and lose thyself in the cosmic maelstrom of INTO DARKNESS’ Cassini – Huygens
