Highly regarded as one of Sólstafir’s seminal albums, ‘Köld’ is the deeply emotional third album from the Icelandic post metal legends.
The 2008 record picked up where ‘Masterpiece of Bitterness’ left off and saw the band fully realise their sound and identity.
To this day, the record still holds up for its mournful beauty. The record is now once again available on vinyl format!

Step into the realm of avant-garde metal with Tamás Kátai's visionary project: Thy Catafalque.
For over two decades, Thy Catafalque has been masterfully pioneering left-field extreme metal music. The journey continues with Thy Catafalque’s sophomore masterpiece ‘Microcosmos’, a revelation that delicately balances the dichotomy between black metal and avant-garde artistry.
Originally released in 2001, this album explores structured thematic elements inspired by space and the vast cosmos. A sonic expedition that maintains the restless abrasion of tremolo-picked dyads and subtly mixed-in blast beats, while retaining the psychedelic sounding sings that flesh out Thy Catafalque’s signature sound.
Now, in a momentous revival, Season of Mist proudly presents the official reissue of ‘Microcosmos’, ensuring that this groundbreaking work is preserved for posterity. Fans, both seasoned and new, can delve into the intricacies of Kátai's visionary compositions, experiencing the fusion of aggression and artistry that defines Thy Catafalque.

SÓLSTAFIR are not like any other band. Their sixth album 'Berdreyminn' underscores this statement. As its title "a dreamer of forthcoming events" aptly describes, the four Icelanders have taken their already impressive evolution one step further. The band has continued to amalgamate haunting melodies, psychedelic phases, as well as strong undercurrents of classic rock and hard rock with echoes of their metal past. Yet SÓLSTAFIR's focus is not on style but pure emotion. 'Berdreyminn' is eclectic by a conscious choice to make feelings audible and transform taste as well as texture to sound. Genre borders are not broken but simply ignored. Musical influences are gathered from a wide range of sources, re-arranged, and woven into new patterns. Melancholy, longing, anger, joy, pleasure, pain, and other emotions are fuelling & fulling this album.

There are few funeral doom bands out there that manage to express sorrow and despair in such a majestic and beautiful manner as SHAPE OF DESPAIR. The Finns’ latest full-length is a product of their environment, enveloping the listener in cold, eternal darkness like a lonely Finnish winter. And much like the long, funereal winters of their homeland, the atmosphere in ‘Return to the Void’ is bleak but ethereal. The funeral doom icons do not merely offer a soundtrack to one’s agony, but also demonstrate the beauty that can often be found in misery.

For fans of FUNERAL, MOURNFUL CONGREGATION, BELL WITCH, AHAB, EVOKEN.

NARGAROTH Era of Threnody

Era of Threnody burns with rage and repose - a war cry from a battlefield long forgotten, a remembrance of sorrows past, present, and future. Across its 65-minute landscape, the 10 songs which comprise Era of Threnody paint a portrait of NARGAROTH at its most dynamic: nearly every unique era of the band is represented, but executed with a startling sense of professionalism. But let it be known that "professionalism" in no way should be conflated with mainstream ambitions, for this is still pure 'n' pristine BLACK METAL in all its monochromatic grandeur. More accurately, perhaps, Era of Threnody is the sound of NARGAROTH at the height of its powers, well rested from the studio hiatus and eager 'n' emboldened by an upcoming European tour with Absu and Hate.

MÖRK GRYNING stands as a shrine to the raw, untamed essence of the Swedish black metal genre. Formed in the cold embrace of the '90s, these dark lords have carved their own path, eschewing trends for a sound that pays homage to the forebears while relentlessly pushing forward.
Their latest offering, 'Fasornas Tid', is a visceral journey through the abyss of the human psyche. With tracks like "Tornet" featuring ferocious guest vocals from C of AVSLUT and "Before The Crows Have Their Feast," laden with apocalyptic harmonies, the album blends melodic black metal with death metal ferocity. Recorded, mixed, and mastered in Wing Studios by Sverker Widgren, and featuring artwork by the enigmatic C-G, Fasornas Tid delves into themes of inner turmoil, the eternal conflict of good and evil, and the insatiable hunger for self-destruction.
It’s a dystopian symphony that harkens back to their iconic 'Tusen år har gått...' era, yet it's unmistakably a product of now—a battle cry for the forsaken.

For fans of DISSECTION, DARK FUNERAL, MARDUK, 1349.

After fifteen years of slumber, the sleepers are asleep no more, the dead are resting peacefully no more. One of Sweden’s legendary black metal bands MÖRK GRYNING are about to unleash their wrath upon the masses with ‘Hinsides Vrede’,

Translating into ‘otherworldly wrath’ or ‘wrath of the world beyond’, ‘Hinsides Vrede’ represents the doom of pre-historic cultures as well as our impending doom while the world is cracking at its seams. It is a furious assault upon the civilized world and a descent into the nether regions of the world beyond.

MÖRK GRYNING again found the synergy they had while writing their legendary debut record and return to their foundations by balancing melody with straightforward brutality. Yet, by striving to reinvent themselves with every record, the long-awaited comeback of the band is by no means a reiteration of a glorious musical past.

Join us into the maelstrom!
