Blue vinyl version

are a black metal band from Kópavogur, Iceland. After their debut EP "Dönsum í logans ljóma", the members — all only in their early twenties — have been working intensively on new material. Concrete news will follow soon, but the band’s direction is already clear: FORSMÁN (pronounced "fors-mown") stand in the line of modern Icelandic black metal associated with SVARTIDAUÐI, SINMARA, and MISÞYRMING, combining dense atmosphere with focused, forward-driving songwriting. Expect urgent riffing, decisive rhythms, and vocals that cut through a cold, enveloping haze. FORSMÁN are part of a new generation coming out of Iceland with a strong sense of identity, and anyone drawn to the country’s contemporary black metal sound should keep a close eye on what comes next.

LTD.ED.250 on "blue/purple merged"- Vinyl including Insert and DLC!

il nuovo album dei britannici Cryptic Shift porta oltre i confini del metal estremo un’avventura sonora tra death, thrash e tecnicismi pro-progressive. Con soli 5 brani ma un’intensa narrativa sci-fi, “Overspace & Supertime” continua l’universo concettuale di Visitations From Enceladus, catapultandoti in dimensioni ancora più folli e assurde.

Black 2-LP with 12-page booklet and A2 poster.

Founded in 1994 and led to rest in 2012, LUNAR AURORA during their existence released 9 full length albums, two demos and some split releases with SECRETS OF THE MOON, PAYSAGE D‘HIVER and NORDLYS.
Partly atmospheric, partly aggressive but always unique and special, LUNAR AURORA created a deep and mysteries sound full of grim Black Metal with symphonic, ambient and modern classical elements.

Originally released by The Oath and Deviant Records in 2004, LUNAR AURORAs fifth album will be finally available again on double black vinyl and picture disc.
As bonus on this reissue, there are songs from the same recording session, which were not released on the original CD.
This is an essential masterpiece of Black Metal and proves once again the greatness and strength of LUNAR AURORA.

Japanese black metal legends Sigh formed in 1989/1990. The genre-classic debut ‘Scorn Defeat’ followed on Euronymous’ Deathlike Silence Productions in 1993, and with each subsequent release, Sigh grew to become one of the country’s greatest and most revered metal exports. With a journey through the strange and the psychedelic, incorporating a whole eclectic mix of genre styles & experimentation throughout their career, Sigh has remained a vital creative force in the avantgarde field whilst maintaining their old school roots, as witnessed with the stellar 2022 album, ‘Shiki’. 2025 also saw Sigh remaking their ‘Hangman’s Hymn’ album for a release on Peaceville as part of the band’s 35th anniversary celebrations, in the shape of ‘I Saw the World’s End: Hangman’s Hymn MMXXV’.

With the ongoing early line-up of Mirai Kawashima, Shinichi Ishikawa, and Satoshi Fujinami, ‘Scenario IV: Dread Dreams’ was the band’s fourth studio album, originally surfacing in 1999. This was also notably the final title in partnership with Sigh’s then-label, Cacophonous Records. Delving evermore into the experimental side of music to conjure an interlinked gallery of twisted soundscapes; ‘Dread Dreams’ became more of a journey into the realm of psychedelia and rock over black metal, with this Zappa-inspired odyssey acting as somewhat of a direct pre-cursor to what was to follow with the celebrated ‘Imaginary Sonicscape’ opus.

‘Dread Dreams’ was once more recorded at Shinjuku On Air Studio with J. Yamada, with a selection of guests including Damian Montgomery of Ritual Carnage lending lyrics plus guest vocals, along with King Fowley (Deceased), and Killjoy (Necrophagia) supplying additional song lyrics. Cover art came courtesy of renowned artist Joe Petagno (Motörhead, Autopsy).

Continuing with Peaceville’s re-issues of Sigh’s classic works, this edition of ‘Dread Dreams’ contains a new master created by Patrick Engel at Temple of Disharmony.

The release also includes a new interview with main-man Mirai Kawashima conducted by Dayal Patterson of Cult Never Dies, with his thoughts, influences and reflections on the album and its challenges.

This edition of ‘Dread Dreams’ is presented on limited marble vinyl.

"The 3rd full length from Australia's Quest Master. "The Twelve Castles" is a continuation and refinement of the sounds and ideas explored in "Lost Songs of Distant Realms". A love letter to the RPG's of the 1990's, recorded with classic Casio and Yamaha keyboard tones."

 Limited to 250 copies on a grey shell with 'lock' cover art, and 250 copies on blue shells with 'key' cover art.

Five tracks (that culminate in a 35-minute sonic journey that depicts the sound of spiritual death throughout the ages), “Endless Pilgrimage” sees GRAVE MIASMA follow-up their “Odori Sepulcrorum” milestone LP by taking their sound further into darker, more atmospheric and more progressive territory channeling some of their most challenging, aggressive, and most advanced material to date. With “Endless Pilgrimage”, GRAVE MIASMA have harnessed a new level of creativity to their oeuvre creating another unparalleled work within the genre.
 

Vafurlogi is rooted both spiritually and literally in the early 2000s black metal movement, as the earliest songs were written nearly twenty years ago. Like the stalwarts of that era, Vafurlogi draws inspiration not only from the staunch traditionalism of the ‘90s but also from its rebellious spirit of discovery and creation.
Fronted by guitarist Þórir Garðarsson of Sinmara and Svartidauði, who now also takes on vocal and bass duties, Vafurlogi presents a new chapter for him as a songwriter. Throughout years of activity with his other bands, the essence of Vafurlogi slowly cultivated in parallel below the surface. Initially a vessel for accumulated works not suitable for Svartidauði or Sinmara, Vafurlogi developed into an avenue for him to freely explore different creative ideas and moods. While touching on the apocalyptic, nightmarish realms of Svartidauði and the haunting atmospherics of Sinmara, Vafurlogi places greater emphasis on triumphant and unabashedly melodic flourishes through a comparatively stripped-down compositional approach.

In Vafurlogi, Þórir has joined forces with drummer Ragnar Sverrisson, a seasoned veteran of the underground metal scene, having played in various bands both in Iceland and abroad, such as Helfró, Ophidian I, Abyssal, and Valkyrja. After the album recordings, the lineup was reinforced with Eysteinn Orri Sigurðsson of Nyrst and Úlfúð on guitars and Samúel Ásgeirsson of Volcanova on bass. “Í vökulli áþján” was produced at the esteemed Studio Emissary by Stephen Lockhart of Rebirth of Nefast between 2020 and 2024, presenting songs written mostly between 2018 and 2020.

Vafurlogi is Icelandic for ‘flickering flame’, but the name can also be literally translated as ‘wandering light’ – and therein lies the key to the project’s thematic essence. Vafurlogi explores man’s incessant and despairing search for meaning and the ever-elusive sacred light while condemned to roam spiritual wastelands.

Combining ripping, violent rhythms with razor sharp riffing and trancelike pulses, BLACK CURSE creates true malevolence. The band rips open holy portals to times when Black and Death Metal shared the same principles, the same aesthetics, and the same diabolical wrath. Produced with the heaviest sound possible -Endless Wound- crushes into the world like the spawn of primordial chaos. Herein BLACK CURSE crawl on the darkest lava fields of Doom, revel in the infernal storms of Death, and levitate in the utmost Black.
