"Pirut" - The latest masterpiece by Russian/Ukrainian - folk / post-rock / funeral doom - masters. A 40-minute funeral doom opera, influenced in part by the Chelyabinsk meteor strike, in which the band was involved during the mixing of the album.

Released in high-quality digipack on rough-coated reverse-board paper with a 6-panel rough-coated fold-out booklet.
 

For the first time ever, Noregs Vaapen has been remixed and remastered from the original multitrack recordings, bringing new clarity and depth to one of Taake’s most celebrated works. This collector’s edition comes in a 20-page deluxe Digibook, complete with lyrics and rare, previously unpublished photos from the album’s recording sessions. To mark the occasion, the set also includes the first official Taake DVD: the band’s anniversary concert where Noregs Vaapen was performed in its entirety – raw, uncompromising, and captured in full. Originally released in 2011, Noregs Vaapen is the fifth studio album from Norway’s black metal institution Taake – and often hailed as their strongest. It sees Hoest sharpening his trademark riffs, melodies, and biting vocals, while weaving in unexpected turns: black’n’roll grooves, chilling mellotrons, and even the now-legendary banjo solo. Songs like the anthemic Nordbundet, the relentless Myr, and the infamous Orkan have long since earned their place in the pantheon of True Norwegian Black Metal. While Hoest is once again behind all music, lyrics, instruments, and vocals, the album also features contributions from Taake’s then live-lineup — Thurzur, V’gandr, Aindiachai, and Gjermund — alongside a rare gathering of prominent guests: Nocturno Culto (Darkthrone), Attila Csihar (Mayhem), Demonaz (Immortal), Bjørnar Nilsen (Vulture Industries), and Skagg (Gaahlskagg, Deathcult).

Majestic, epic, symphonic and cold black metal at its best

At the end of the roughest year in their history, Ulver is proud to release their thirteenth studio album, titled Liminal Animals. Liminal Animals is permeated by the smell of disaster and documents, with deep concern, a dark and troubled place in a dark and troubled time. The cover art features The Senseless Seven, a 1911 drawing by Austin Osman Spare.

Finally, for the first time ever, GEHENNA`s second full length is available as stand alone vinyl!

Malice (Our Third Spell), unleashed upon the masses in 1996, is GEHENNA`s second album and marks the end of the first legendary era of the band.
On the one hand, it`s on Malice (Our Third Spell) that both keyboardist Sarcana and drummer Dirge Rep made their last appearance on an album of GEHENNA. On the other hand, Malice (Our Third Spell) can be considered the last pure Black Metal album of GEHENNA since the successors saw the band shifting towards a more Death Metal oriented sound.
In general, Malice (Our Third Spell) is a logical continuation of the previous full-length and with its playing time of almost 60 minutes by far the longest album the band has ever released.
The most notable difference compared to Seen Through The Veils Of Darkness is the introduction of numerous riffs that have a traditional Heavy- or Thrash Metal feel to them making Malice (Our Third Spell) comparable to e.g. Enthrone Darkness Triumphant by DIMMU BORGIR.

The songs were completely new remastered by Patrick W. Engel at the Temple of Disharmony to ensure the best possible sound for this timeless Black Metal classic.

Gatefold-sleeve.
This release will include a huge 20-page 12” booklet including an in-depth interview (divided into 4 parts, this is part 4) with all 5 original bandmembers and many never seen before pictures.

Seen Through The Veils Of Darkness (2^nd Spell) is GEHENNA`s first full-length album which was originally released in 1995.
They kept their characteristic sound intact, yet stepped each and every element of their sound up a notch or two. The highly melodic sound which has over the years become one of the band`s trademarks, presents itself refined with subtle details.
For the first time, GEHENNA dare to incorporate fast-paced passages into their songs too.
Considering the high compositional level of the album, one is simply awe-struck by the band`s enormous development within only 2 years since GEHENNA`s inception.
Seen Through The Veils Of Darkness (2^nd Spell) is a symphonic Black Metal masterpiece and a highlight of the genre.
