The Swedish misanthrope is back with his third album

DOEDSVANGR storm back into the fray with second album "Serpents Ov Old", a swaggering, hedonistic blaze of hard-rocking fuck-the-world malevolence. Consisting of Doedsadmiral (NORDJEVEL), Shatraug (SARGEIST), BST (THE ORDER OF APOLLYON) and AntiChristian (ex-TSJUDER), the band honour their pedigree with an anthemic blend of classic Norwegian and Finnish Black Metal savagery. Empowered by a production-job which aligns top-tier playing with a sense of wild abandon, and garnished with a depraved lyrical brew of demonic awakenings, mass annihilations, ritualism and Satanic decadence, "Serpents Ov Old" is a set of perversely melodic, fist-bangingly misanthropic tunes for revelling and retaliation.

Pressed on black heavy vinyl. Comes with a 12-page 12"x12" booklet and a download card.

This edition of 'It Beckons Us All' is presented on Nocturno Culto’s own limited grey marble vinyl, with printed inner sleeve containing lyrics. 

With a legacy of audial treasures now spanning more than 35 years & with the fountain of creativity ever flowing, Norway’s Darkthrone return with their latest venture through classic riffs & vintage sounding metal in the shape of the epic new seven track studio opus, ‘It Beckons Us All’. 

Seeing the longstanding duo of Fenriz & Nocturno Culto uniting once more, ‘It Beckons Us All’ follows on the heels of 2022’s revered ‘Astral Fortress’ album, with what could be considered an even more refined, challenging & diverse set of timeless metal anthems from the uncompromising trailblazers; from the melodic, to the sombre & atmospheric, to the blackened dirges emanating from Darkthrone’s highly distinguishable riffing, as well as a nod to influences such as Celtic Frost along the way. 

Recorded once again at Chaka Khan Studios in the band’s native Norway, ‘It Beckons Us All’ was mastered by Jack Control at Enormous Door, with artwork courtesy of Polish artist Zbigniew Bielak. 

With an expansive catalogue consisting of a multitude of various genre classics, Darkthrone first arrived on the global stage with their atmospheric & technically accomplished death metal debut, ‘Soulside Journey’ back in 1991, followed by the milestone in black metal that is ‘A Blaze In The Northern Sky’ released only the following year, after the intended second album ‘Goatlord’ was essentially scrapped to make way for something more primitive & paving the way for Darkthrone’s close association with the black metal genre over many years. And so, with an endlessly progressing (and even regressing) evolution which has seen the band successfully delving into many sub-genres of metal & punk, ‘It Beckons Us All’ stands as one of the band’s most complete & vast works to date.
