Selling CD - Extreme Metal and Dark music
Cathedral’s ninth studio album was originally released by Nuclear Blast in 2010 as a double disc set and produced by x3 Grammy award winner Warren Riker (Fugees, Down, M People, Destiny's Child, COC). It was perhaps their most ambitious effort to date. It covers a lot of musical territories that the band were known for, with each song having a different to vibe to the next.
The Guessing Game has been a somewhat overlooked album in the Cathedral repertoire and, whilst the band were happy with the production, they always considered the original mix to be a bit lack-lustre. So now, with the recording rights reverting to the band, they thought it a good time to revisit the masters and get the album sounding more in keeping with how they would have liked it to sound at the time.
With that in mind, the album has been completely remixed from the original masters by long-time collaborator Jaime Gomez Arellano. Now, with a more cohesive, stripped down, raw and powerful sound, it includes alternate takes and extended versions of songs, now stretching over five sides of vinyl, enabling the tracks to breathe like never before. This new mix gives The Guessing Game a revitalised energy, which almost makes it sound like a new album.
True Norwegian Outlaw Country.
DEATHBARREL’s first full-length in 14 years.
"Life Resignation Notice", deals in dark outlaw country from the cold and ruthless edges of Norway. A soundtrack for empty roads, bad decisions, broken hearts and the ghosts that refuse to stay buried. Driving guitars, whiskey-soaked melodies and stories dragged straight from the shadows - where Southern Gothic meets the bleakness of the North. No pretty lies. No redemption promised. Just True Norwegian Outlaw Country.
"Life Resignation Notice" is an album so steeped in darkness that it's bound to cross over and thrive with any genre found down below. See DEATHBARREL take the stage and set a new world order.
19 Tracks, includes bonus ep
2003 edition on Mutilation Records
Re-Release with one bonus track "Golden Dust - Acoustic Version"
“The Circle” deals with the cycle of life, death and rebirth. Interweaving crushing heaviness and atmospheric dreaminess, the album portrays a deeply emotional journey – a life dedicated to the sun and to freedom.
DUIR’s upcoming album, CATARSI (2026, AOP), represents their most ambitious work yet. Set during the First World War, it follows a young soldier caught between pride, despair, and oblivion. Through atmospheric black metal intertwined with evocative folk elements, Catarsi guides listeners on a cathartic journey where history becomes emotion and memory turns into sound.
For more than two decades, Finsterforst have been shaping their own distinctive voice within extreme metal, continuously evolving both musically and lyrically without ever losing their core identity. Their sound merges elements from a wide spectrum of heavy music — from black and folk-inspired roots to epic, atmospheric and post-metal influences — forming a style they refer to as “Black Forest Metal”: a blend that feels both deeply rooted and entirely its own.
Rather than fitting into a single label, their music thrives on contrast and fusion: crushing heaviness meets vast, cinematic atmospheres; raw aggression unfolds into melancholic, emotional depth; and monumental arrangements carry a sense of both intimacy and scale. While often described in broader terms as epic, atmospheric or post-influenced extreme metal, Finsterforst deliberately transcend genre boundaries.
The result is a sound that is brutally powerful yet richly layered, where sadness, rage, triumph and grandeur coexist within expansive compositions. Driven by constant progression and a refusal to stand still, Finsterforst continue to refine a vision that is as immersive as it is unmistakable
The legendary Heavy Metal band CIRITH UNGOL will unleash their seventh full-length album, "All The Shadows", via No Remorse Records.
Formed in Ventura, California in the early 1970s, Cirith Ungol is a band with a remarkable story, creating a unique and original sound. From the eccentric and mysterious debut album "Frost And Fire", to the heavier and darker "King Of The Dead" and "One Foot In Hell", Cirith Ungol's music and lyrical themes offered to the world epic, apocalyptic and doom-filled music. In 1991, Cirith Ungol released "Paradise Lost", an album that became a fan-favourite over the years, but led them to oblivion and they disbanded a year later.
The myth was getting stronger, the demand was getting bigger, the passion started taking over. In 2015, Cirith Ungol reunited, offering to the world the live shows they were waiting for! It was a dream come true for many fans. More than that, the band also recorded two more albums, "Forever Black" in 2015 and "Dark Parade" in 2023, expanding their legacy and getting the recognition they deserved. Not only in the underground metal scene, as the leaders and founders of cult, arcane and obscure metal, but in Heavy Metal in general. In 2024, it was announced that Cirith Ungol would perform their last shows, but two years later, the beast could not rest and the fire still burns.
"All the Shadows" is a classic Cirith Ungol album in every sense of the word. Furthermore, it is not an exaggeration that this album is one of the band's strongest efforts ever! Few bands can claim that they recorded a record equal to their older, established and classic albums, and even fewer can support a solid statement that a new album after decades can look in the eyes, or even top, their classic albums. Cirith Ungol actually did it. This album was the culmination of their desire to keep forging their unique brand of true metal.
"All the Shadows" recorded at The Captains Quarters, Ventura, CA. Engineered, mixed and mastered by Armand John Anthony. Produced by Cirith Ungol and Armand John Anthony. Executive Producer: Jarvis Leatherby. The incredible cover art is created by the acclaimed fantasy artist Michael Whelan.
Originally formed over two decades ago, SERPENT LORD existed largely in the shadows, issuing only a handful of demos before entering an extended period of dormancy. Yet the creative force behind the project never faded. Ideas, fragments, and compositions endured across the years, shelved for the right moment, only fully taking shape and being realized in the Year of the Snake, when the vision was finally forged into its definitive form.
Early demo material already hinted at what SERPENT LORD would become: a stark balance between melodic grandeur and unrestrained aggression, with transitions between atmosphere and brutality, produced to enhance rather than obscure its intensity.
Founded by Jake Superchi (known for his creative force in UADA and CEREMONIAL CASTINGS), SERPENT LORD now channels the spirit of ‘90s pagan black metal. The album stands as a triumphant and immersive work—melodic, fierce, and steeped in ritualistic energy. Expansive riffing, evocative passages, and a dynamic interplay between harsh and atmospheric elements both timeless and fully awakened.
The album was recorded & mixed by Jake Superchi and mastered by Arthur Rizk, achieving a sound that retains a raw edge while delivering clarity and depth. The cover artwork, created by Kris Verwimp, further underscores the album’s mythic and arcane atmosphere.
With The Once Forgotten Ways of Old, SERPENT LORD emerges from decades of silence with a work that fulfills the promise of its early recordings—an album shaped by time, and driven by an uncompromising vision of black metal.
On their fourth full-length album "Stave", Osi and the Jupiter provide listeners with a unique journey through the delicate sounds of what may have been believed to be long lost; allowing for a truly immersive experience that is informed by the innate mysticism still dwelling beneath the surface of their native Appalachian region of eastern Ohio.
In honour of this more personal wellspring of inspiration, Osi and the Jupiter’s sound has evolved from the ambient soundscapes of yore into more direct expressions of yearning. Voice, ambient synth drones, acoustic guitar and cello underpin these delicate homage’s to a mysterious, myth-laden region. Kratz’s heartfelt, plaintive vocals speak openly of surroundings that clearly resonate deep within. Gentle strummed melodies support these tales, whilst the ever-inventive cello melodies of Kakophonix reach onwards to distant places as yet unseen.
‘They Ride Through the Sky on Horse Drawn Chariots’ sets the tone with dramatic swells, leading the listener by the hand into these new realms. ‘Appalachia‘ follows, replete with yearning vocals and delicate, countrified picking. ‘The Binding Will of Mountains’ closes this unique collection of songs with a twelve-minute journey throughout the myriad soundscapes that Osi and the Jupiter have explored throughout their existence.
