UNTO OTHERS first full-length album back in print! "MANA" conjures up an
emotive 40-minute ride into the realms of heavy metal, new wave, goth
rock, and continues to solidify the band's unique brand of heavy music.

Artwork by Adam Burke.

Following Trembling Void’s inaugural demo release which offered up 7 tracks of raw, yet melodic black metal, comes the release of the new arrival’s first full-length offering: ‘The Burning Question’. Carrying on in a parallel approach whilst simultaneously refining it, this concoction of trance inducing litany shows no signs of losing the project's signature edge. Listeners will be served 7 anti-psalms which range in style from 2nd wave mainstays to something completely non genre-bound. It is in these unique moments that ‘The Burning Question’ shines bright. Thematically the album follows a soldier of darkness into the Trembling Void where he seeks an answer to the question of his existence. Futility and despair intertwine throughout this opus of bleak hopelessness. Fans of the burgeoning Canadian black metal scene take note: LP and CD release via Inferna Profundus Records and Cassette by Banner of Blood coming this fall.

Anachronism is a Swiss band formed in 2009. Drawing inspiration from a lot of different influences, from dissonant, technical and brutal death metal to jazz and prog music, the quartet is now about to release their third studio album, Meanders.

Following the self-released Orogeny from 2018 (and the Reflecting the Inside EP before that), Meanders is a work of heavy contrasts: pure blasts of violence intertwine with ambient, intimate parts or groovy drum & bass duos. On top of complex, unpredictable structures, singer Lisa Voisard’s low growls and aerials riffs make work to bring depth to the eight songs of the albums.

When asked to describe their new opus, Anachronism answered: “Sometimes we find harmonized arpeggios, sometimes we find fast and agressive moments, and in the end each song is a journey of its own, painting a different scenario”.

With their new album Anachronism shows varied atmospheres and moods, all with powerful feelings and a rich palette of emotions. Come take a tour through their Meanders.

Anachronism new album, with a cover illustration by Adam Burke, will be released via Avantgarde Music death metal division Unorthodox Emanations on January 28th, 2023.

By their hammer let none be saved – Misþyrming return to lay down the law. Með hamri is the sound of the iron heel of Black Metal trampling the face of musical modernity.

Með hamri is deeply saturated with the vibrantly alive energy that Misþyrming capture so effectively on stage. The drums sound organic and powerful, the guitar distortion has a vicious bite, and D.G.’s vocals are as brutal and evocative as ever. The underlying spirit is one of action. There is melancholy, bitterness, and filth, but one of the album’s foremost characteristics is its relentless surge of determination. Never before have Misþyrming sounded livelier and more confrontational.
 

Since 2012 in the roster of I, Voidhanger Records, Ohio's THE WAKEDEAD GATHERING are back with their fourth full-length work, "Parallaxiom," a concept album that confirms their qualities, their stylistic code and their skill of great horror storytellers. Andrew Lampe's solo project has always been a harbinger of classic cavernous death metal sounds applied to a brilliant songwriting, rich in black metal and doom metal nuances.

With "Parallaxiom" The Wakeded Gathering tell a dark sci-fi story, set in a gray and dystopian future in which genetic tests allow an authoritarian state to determine whether an unborn person will commit crimes as an adult. "Those deemed most unsuitable for society are immediately executed or jailed for further study," Andrew Lampe explains; "however, this is not a perfect science. Several individuals flee and later turn their attention to the destruction of this unnatural state."

Paradox was formed in Würzburg in 1986 by two young musicians, Charly Steinhauer and Axel Blaha. Both of them were founding members of German metal bands Overkill, Venom and Warhead since 1981. Early 1986 they finally changed the band name to PARADOX. In July 1986, the band recorded a demo, drawing the attention of Roadrunner Records. In 1987, PARADOX recorded their second demo "Mystery" which was a success for the band, with the German press calling it the best demo of the year. In the same year, the band started recording their first album ‘Product of Imagination’ for RoadRunner records. The debut album was an enormous success in Germany, with Metal Hammer recognising it as the best German debut after ‘Walls of Jericho’ by Helloween. The album ‘Mystery Demo 1987 - Deluxe edition’ contains the pre Paradox demos from 1985 and 1983, 16 tracks in total. Cover artwork by Thomas Pinheiro (Possessed, Hirax, Malevolent Creation). Extensive liner notes with founding member Charlie Steinhauer and tonns of pictures from the 1981 – 1987 era. Paradox still exists up till today and has released 8 full length albums and a handful of singles / ep’s.

American thrash metal band from Berkeley, California formed in 1984. Originally known as Sacrilege, they added B.C. to their name in 1986 to avoid confusion with UK Sacrilege after being signed to Alchemy Records. Sacrilege B.C. played Bay Area thrash metal with a huge dose of punk and crossover influences. The band featured vocalist Strephon Taylor, guitarists Gary Wendt and Tim Howell, bassist Sean Smithson, and drummer Matt Fillmore. Maybe slightly overlooked amidst the era's tidal floods of '80s speed metal talent, the band only recorded two, curiously named albums in 1986's ‘Party With God’, and 1988's ‘Too Cool to Pray’ . Guitarist Wendt would later help found post-death outfit Skinlab. With this re-issue 'Party With God' finally emerges from obscurity with demo 1985 as bonus. A classic and a raging thrashterpiece that delivers in spades on the promise of TRUE metal/punk crossover! The band was disbanded in 1991. New booklet with old pictures, flyers, posters and all lyrics. Liner notes by the band and by Robb Flynn (Machine Head / ex Vio Lence). As bonus the 4 track demo 1985, 17 tracks in total.

2-CD re-issue of all the 4 EP's and 4 demos during their early years between '86 and '91, and even an unreleased demo from '99.
Issued in a jewel case with a transparent 2CD tray. Comes with a 16-page booklet.
