Poland's experimental black metal five-piece THAW is thrilled to announce the release of its fifth album, marking its long-awaited return after years of hiatus. The album, featuring six tracks, is the quintessence of the band's musical identity, showcasing its unique sound in a new light.
The musical layer on THAW's new album truly captures the essence of the band, combining vibrant sounds with heavy, low-tuned guitars. These powerful sounds are further enriched with noisy electronics, adding depth and character to each track.
Five The Hierophant continues to walk the winding path they’ve chosen for themselves in the beginning; further down towards within, and further out towards new horizons. Refusing to ascribe to a singular style, they blend elements of black/doom, psychedelic, ambient, experimental and jazz into one syncretic trip. “Apeiron” is a hypnotic, hallucinatory experience with heavy emphasis on the dark atmosphere, cinematic dreamscapes, and repetitive ritualistic trance-inducing sounds. The production, without a doubt, is a step up from the previous installment, “Through Aureate Void”. The band keeps expanding the use of atypical instruments, such as: horns, trumpets, gongs, bells, violins, skull shakers, ritual drums and other tools, which help to capture the haunting spirit of the music.
"Purification Through Sacrifice" is a title that reflects the intent of the band to evolve musically, the themes range, as in the previous chapter, from films to crime news stories through visionary and bloody episodes. This time the sound is further enriched with technique and violence while remaining faithful to old school death metal.
For fans of Bolt Thrower, Asphyx, Morbid Angel, Unleashed, Benediction.

From the depths of outer space, a new creature reached planet Earth: Vrazorth is a new one-man band shrouded in mystery, albeit rumors say they originated somewhere in Sweden.
Vrazorth, a cryptic force lurking in Sweden’s black metal underworld, conjures chilling atmospheres that spiral through the infinite void. The solo project of Vra, shrouded in anonymity, blends icy riffs with cosmic dissonance, like the cold embrace of a forgotten star collapsing into darkness. Unholy whispers entwine with celestial screams, creating soundscapes that evoke a realm beyond time.
To craft its debut studio album, Vrazorth drew inspiration from the best: the alien atmosphere of Darkspace, the hallucinated violence of Mysticum, the unpredictable and hybrid nature of Mesarthim. Everything perfectly mixed together to create music that sings of the cosmos, its void and the hidden mysteries that lie among the stars.
