Nature Stays Silent is an excellent album of atmospheric black metal, but it's mostly an excellent music album. Far from being redundant and never sacrificing either technicality to emotion, nor emotion to technicality,
Cân Bardd manages to keep the interest of the listener during relatively long compositions, in a genre where the impression of déjà-vu unfortunately happens often as the codes are found reinterpreted too often without real originality.
Having not only the merit of offering their own interpretation of the atmospheric black metal, but also of achieving it brilliantly, Cân Bardd delivers with A Nature Stays Silent an excellent first album, a real musical journey in the confines that still remains to discover .

With the second album, Can Bardd take a huge step forward from the already very good debut album. Improved songwriting as well as an excellent production this time around solidify the Can Bardd's ambition to stand proudly in the Atmospheric Black Metal olymp alongside bands like Caladan Brood, Summoning, Sojourner, Elderwind, Eldamar or Pure Wrath.
Forged in the twilight of grand manor halls and secret gardens, this album unfolded like a whispered legend between 2021 and 2024 — where shadows dance with light and time drifts softly through castle ruins.
Adorn is more than just a musical endeavour; it is an act of devotion—to the transcendence of art once liberated from the sterile confines of modernity, to the melancholy of deserted halls, and to the fading glimmer of courtly love. By fusing romanticism with atmospheric blackened metal into compositions that veer between solemnity and splendour, the trio creates sonic worlds that shimmer with longing and luminosity.
At the helm is Coeur Loyale (vocals, guitar, bass), whose soul-shaped songs seek to revive a dreamed, not simply lost, world. He is joined by Valliant Desire (violin, piano, choral arrangements), whose melodies sound like ghosted letters from ancient hands, and Bon Valour (drums), whose rhythms echo through cathedral ruins like hooves.
Together, they form Adorn, a sacred community of song and sorrow that resurrects the grandeur of the past by utilising the emotional majesty of the present. They take listeners to a world of twilight where the stars are low, the roses never die, and the heart endures, ever ablaze with noble intent. Their music does more than just play; it hurts, mourns, and exalts.
Adorn is a gift for those who dream in sepia and find the modern world too pale for their desires. A cry into the night. A garland laid upon the altar of lost time. Romantic music for dreamers.

Silver 12" vinyl (33 rpm) in printed sleeve with printed inner sleeve!
Limited to 300 copies!
Since its inception in 1993, TSJUDER has always been delivering Norwegian Black Metal in the classic raw and rattling style, yet without ever giving in to the temptation of wallowing in nostalgia.
As can be heard on the present reissue of their long sold-out and much sought after second album originally released in 2002, not a single note in their music has to be dyed black.
That’s simply because the roots that are clearly showing are all glistening with the abyssal musical non-colour pioneered by BATHORY, CELTIC FROST, and VENOM as well as those Northern masters MAYHEM, DARKTHRONE, and EMPEROR.
The venomous and vicious throat rendering by bassist Nag and guitarist Draugluin entwines with thorny, relentlessly driving riffs and an infernal rhythmical ice storm unleashed by drummer Jontho.
Available again on special price CD, this milestone of True Norwegian Black Metal are described by the band as "raw and uncompromising black metal".
No post, no progressive, no whatever!

TSJUDER deliver Norwegian Black Metal in the classic raw and rattling style, yet without ever giving in to the temptation of wallowing in nostalgia.
On their fifth full-length 'Antiliv' not a single note has to be dyed black, because the roots that are clearly showing are all glistening with the abyssal musical non-colour pioneered by BATHORY, CELTIC FROST, and VENOM as well as those Northern masters MAYHEM, DARKTHRONE, and EMPEROR. The venomous and vicious throat rendering by bassist Nag and guitarist Draugluin entwines with thorny, relentlessly driving riffs and an infernal rhythmical ice storm unleashed by drummer Anti-Christian over majestic melodies.
When the Norwegians returned with 'Legion Helvete' in 2011, it became obvious that they had honed their songwriting to razor sharp perfection since splitting up after the release of the live DVD 'Norwegian Apocalypse' in 2006.
Now TSJUDER stand proud with an impressive demonstration that they are still growing stronger and the hellishly fierce masterpiece 'Antiliv', which the band modestly describes as "raw and uncompromising black metal".
