Only 5 months after their 2023 mini-album "Wastelands", Heretoir release their new intense full-length "Nightsphere"! The new record is a concept album dealing with the struggle between the forces of nature and a world of machines. Humanity is in the midst of this confrontation, and the dichotomy between living as an animal among animals and existing as a cog in the wheel of progress determines the course of the story the five songs tell.
"Nightsphere" is a dark album that weaves atmospheric black metal parts with melodic clean passages, swirling blast beats with calm post rock and ambient sounds, and the intensity of desperate screams with the poignant emotionality of melancholic clean vocals into a musical journey through an archaic world. It is also the first album that was entirely written by the full band, featuring contributions of every single member.
The album features ambient sounds of the long-time befriended project "Hidehidehide" as well as guest-appearances of two giants of the (post) black metal genre - Tim Yatras of "Austere" who fuels the song "Twilight of the Machines" with his anguish and Nikita Kamprad of "Der Weg einer Freiheit" who delivers intense and powerful vocals on "Glacierheart - Nightsphere Part II".
"Nightsphere's" natural and organic but powerful sound was crafted by David Deutsch and Justin Felder at 1408 Productions in Hannover, who were responsible for the mix of the record. Furthermore Nikita Kamprad of "Der Weg einer Freiheit" took care of the mastering of the album. Prepare to dive into a highly atmospheric night-realm and emotional maelstrom with "Nightsphere"!
The ten tracks on the album struggle to fit into the category of pop music and even more so they shy away from the commonly understood song form. “Nada! Nada! Nada!” it is a complex ecosystem where disturbing trip rock coexists with ethnic impulses and mystical moments. Heartbreaking screams punctuated by hypotonic percussion loops, industrial suites full of saturated distortions are then alternated with diabolical chants. Almost a sound psychoanalysis of contemporary society, almost the soundtrack of a Dante's song. CIGNO increases the dose with visionary texts, where he paints frescoes of contemporaneity between a socio-political and economic criticism of the West, up to ascetic verses whispered and sung recited.
Anarchic and against the current, CIGNO's artistic proposal also passes through the cover which symbolically depicts the heretic. The engraving represents the symbol of the human condition.
Masterpiece of the most famous and oldest Ukrainan band. First official live album from the masters of metal art. Recorded at Kolovorot festival 2010.
Double cassette edition limited to 200 copies!
Vltor emerged from the earth in 2016, born from the need to merge Pagan Black metal with a concept of folk that goes outside the canons of traditional music, giving everything a strongly Italian/Mediterranean imprint.
The central nucleus of the lyrics, written in Italian, centers around the celebration of the past, of religion, and of the virtues of Roman Pagan Italy.
The first EP entitled "Odi" released in 2019, wanted to give voice to the spirit and feelings of our Roman and Italic ancestors, warrior people par excellence, celebrating their belligerent nature, their gravitas and their sense of honor.
"Non Auro Sed Ferro" is the first full record, out on September 20th.
The compositional style present in the 11 tracks is more mature and personal, the pagan vein is in the foreground both in the use of traditional instruments and in the guitar riffs and rhythms. The theme of Roman/Italic paganism is central and in-depth, depicted in its two-faced nature, bloody and profoundly moral at the same time, in accordance with the same spirit that we will not stop celebrating.
Noen hater oss is a black metal band hailing from the stormy shores of Stavanger, Norway. Formed by multi instrumentalist Raum in the year of 2016.
After a couple of years as a one man band, Morloc joined the fold as vocalist and eventually also as a second guitarist. In 2023 Morloc was dismissed from the band due to Irreconcilable differences regarding the bands future.
The musical realm that Noen hater oss reside in can best be described as icy and bleak, melodic yet malicious black metal. With a strong gravitation towards the 90’s sound and philosophies.
The lyrical concept revolves around norwegian folklore, old superstitions, religion and the bloodlust and evil that dwells deep within nature and mankind, yearning to be let out.
The name ‘Noen hater oss’ is norwegian and roughly translates to «someone hates us». It has a deeper meaning than most people tend to presume. With «Someone» being an invisible force, a higher power or even a god of sorts, with little or no regard for the human race.
Noen hater oss has released three albums so far, the self titled «Noen hater oss» in 2018, «Bastarder» in 2019 and «Siste stopp skjærsilden» in 2021.
A fourth album titled «Kunsten aa gjoere jorden ubeboelig» will be this time with sole member Raum handling all instruments and vocals.
So, Noen hater oss are emerging once again from the shadows with their fourth opus «Kunsten aa gjoere jorden ubeboelig», containing seven hymns of purebred, norwegian hatred, shrouded in a raven

From the ever-creating mind of Finnish musician Juuso Peltola (Warmoon Lord, Argenthorns, Old Sorcery, Tenebrarium and many more) comes Oneironaut, a brand new music journey along the German ambient tradition.
Oneironaut can be viewed as a distant cousin of Old Sorcery, spawned beyond a weird horizon, in another dimension alien to sword & sorcery. Slumbering in retro science fiction themes and powered by vintage synthesizers both cosmic and esoteric, Alien Gnosis aims to take the listener to a profound journey through the borders of imagination.
Oneironaut is a new piece in the collaboration between Avantgarde Music and the Finnish artist, expanding towards new galaxies. Adorned with a beautiful painting by Mara Hiltunen, Alien Gnosis is a long, fascinating path through galaxies far, far away…
Full coloured cover with white inner jacket + Insert & A2 Poster. Limited to 111 copies on 12" Vinyl.
With their new album The Lurking Shadow of Death it is clear that Ars Veneficium has not taken the song writing for granted and managed to overthrow their previous work once more with delivering only the best of their best on this record. From the compositions to the production to the artwork, one can undoubtedly say that this is their best work thus so far.
The lead guitars by Ronarg deliver some amazing melodies variated with some aggressive chords where the bass guitar (once again) plays some beautiful underlaying solo notes to create that extra atmosphere which is more or less the Ars Veneficium signature by now. The drum work has been delivered by no one else than Flo Musil (Theotoxin) who blasts his way throughout the album with some outstanding, highly skilled details giving the extra punch that this album absolutely deserves. The vocals by S. are more furious than before and deliver a much wider range and diversity which lifts the whole album to a new level.
With The Lurking Shadow of Death, Ars Veneficium has delivered an absolute beast of a black metal album that every fan of old school, satanic or melodic black metal would appreciate! Raging black metal filled with atmosphere, melodies and pumping energy! A must have!
