Pestilential Shadows is a black metal band hailing from Sydney, Australia. Playing in local black metal bands since 1997, in 2003 Balam decided to form Pestilential Shadows with the goal of creating atmospheric and intense black metal and its reputation as one of the most innovative bands in the black metal scene.

Throughout their career, Pestilential Shadows has continued to release music that pushes the boundaries of black metal, remained true to their vision of creating intense and atmospheric black metal and has continued to experiment with different sounds and instrumentation, pushing the boundaries of the genre and creating a unique sound that is instantly recognizable. The band's music has been described as "otherworldly" and "haunting", and their influence can be felt throughout the black metal scene.

2023 marks the 20 year anniversary and a new era for the band. With the current line-up, now consisting of Balam, Basilysk, Krvna Vatra & Mourn, Pestilential Shadows are poised to release their 7th album “Devil’s Hammer” (Last Gasp Studios) through Northern Silence - a swirling maelstrom of aggressive, melodic and complex instrumentation & vocals.

Collector's Edition in 4-panel Digipack with 12-page booklet, limited to 500 copies.

Recommended for fans of Heretoir, Anomalie, Amesoeurs or Harakiri For The Sky.

Following the incredible success of the debut, the second full length, entitled ”Militant, Penitent, Triumphant”, builds on this rock solid foundation. It showcases the unique sound and song structures that so many people appreciated about “Six Voices Inside”, thus making it instantly recognizable as none other than Faidra. To keep that typical sound and atmosphere was indeed a very conscious decision. The familiar structures, ambient synth sounds and slow tempos from the first album are present and continue that tradition, while also including occasional new elements and influences.

The work on this new album started almost immediately after the release of the debut album, knowing that it would take a long time to complete because of rather limited free time. The project was worked on from time to time during almost three years without a consistent work flow, where sometimes months passed by without a single note recorded.

Where the debut tackled a lot of different subjects, the new album has a very specific theme running through almost every track. The larger concept handles the themes of sin, penitence and redemption; also mirroring the title of the album, which are the three states of the Catholic church.

Lunar Spells is a Greek Black Metal band formed in Athens in 2020, by Cryptic (guitar, vocals, synths), K.C.H (bass) and V.T (drums). Both musically and lyrically, Lunar Spells stays close to the roots of Scandinavian "old school" Black Metal. Lyrical subjects thus often deal with darkness, depression, misanthropy and hate. After their first EP recording Medieval Shadows from an Ancient Netherworld (2020), the line-up was augmented by Atxak on vocals for the debut album "Where Silence Whispers". On the new album Cryptic has taken over vocal duty again.
