With "Neopolis", LIGHTS OF VIMANA craft a deeply cinematic and textural sound that diverges from the members' heavier roots, instead weaving together influences from Hans Zimmer, Porcupine Tree, and My Dying Bride. The result is a sonic tapestry that is both immersive and emotionally stirring. Déhà’s predominantly clean, expressive vocals lend a raw, human element to the album’s brooding, futuristic soundscapes, while Conforti’s ambient synth layers and Lewis’s expansive riffs create a dynamic interplay of beauty and desolation.

The album paints a vivid portrait of a dystopian world - cold, vast, and haunting - where shimmering atmospheres meet the crushing weight of doom. It is a journey through collapse and transcendence, where every note feels like a flicker of light in the ruins of tomorrow.

Norwegian titan, Mork, was created by Thomas Eriksen in 2004, with the debut album ‘Isebakke’ eventually surfacing in 2013. Since then, Mork has been ceaselessly rising through the echelons of Black Metal, and on the heels of 2024’s intense and groundbreaking ‘Syv’ opus - which has resulted in the band branching out with tours in the Far East & Australia - Eriksen continues on this evolutionary path with the new album, and what is undoubtedly set to be a new benchmark, ‘Monolitt’.

“A stark monument to the unrelenting brutality of reality, the monolith looms above us, immovable, indifferent, eternal. Its crushing presence bears down on the spirit, suffocating hope and testing the limits of endurance. It is an experience carved in stone, unyielding”.

‘Monolitt’ is an album that further expands the sonic and atmospheric depth of existing Mork releases; unafraid to challenge the listener, while steadfastly rooted in the cold traditions of the genre. With this uncompromising vision and direction for ‘Monolitt’, Mork delivers a sound which is brutal yet expansive, whilst also heavy and epic, for a relentless journey through the shadows of Norwegian Black Metal, while forging new paths within that ancient and revered framework.

Across these songs, themes of collapse, transformation, isolation, and destruction form the central pillars. From the crushing burden of existence to spectral wanderings through forgotten landscapes, ‘Monolitt’ explores the human condition through bleak introspection and grand imagery. Nature rages, giants awaken, faith crumbles, all in pursuit of experience beyond the limits of flesh and mind.

The sublime 4th full length from UK avant-Black/Death Metal band LYCHGATE advances the kinetic potency of their 2020 DMP-debut EP, "Also sprach Futura", to a frightening level of mind-mangling intensity.

"Precipice" is progressive Extreme Metal plummeting inside a black hole: scorching, twisted and transfixing. The band have upped both the dystopic prog-Death quotient and their sense of experimentation, moving with formidable, mechanised poise and a surrealist’s sense of dread.

Release date: 12/05

Furious and intimate, exciting and intriguing, "Futility Report" stems from a thoroughly modern vision, an innovative interpretation of Extreme Music which breaks down established codes whilst simultaneously deep -rooted in the obscurehistory of Black Metal.
"Futility Report" - or the metallic version of ULVER’s legendary "Perdition City" - is a new form of Dark Music, a serious piece of Art far removed from usual clichés and a significant forward step.
Embark on a uniquely fascinating journey and let yourself be enchanted by an ambitious entity with designs on your soul!

"I I", the aptly-titled and comprehensively majestic second album from BLOOD ABSCISSION fortifies the veiled project as a major new player in the increasingly overcrowded field of contemporary Black Metal.

While the sense of perpetual forward motion and cascades of opulent melodies from outstanding 2023 debut "I" remain, the band here raise their compositional acumen: balancing out eruptions of chaotic rage with mystical transcendent calm, increasing push/pull dynamics to elevate the physical and emotional weight of each piece, and delivering upgraded songcraft to pack an ever more emotive punch.

BLACK METAL from Trondheim, Norway. 
With no shortage of bands striving for anonymity purely for imagery and the sake of being “mysteriious”, draped in cloth from top to toe, there are still those who prefer lurking in the shadows without documenting it on various social media platforms. 

With nothing from the past to reference, with no egos up front and center, and with no previous bands to name drop, Misotheist has only the music to showcase - which speaks for itself. Striking out from the darkness like a razor sharp knife, this sonorous and merciless first release leaves a compulsion for more.
