Nornír, live as well as on record, offer an overwhelming feeling of nostalgia. Their German origins notwithstanding, this is Norwegian Black Metal the way it was played in the 90s - the way it should be played.

German band Nornír performs northern black metal in the best tradition of the Scandinavian bands during the glorious '90s. The band's album 'Urd' is recommended to fans of Gorgoroth, Trelldom, Skogen, (early) Siebenbürgen, Thy Primordial, Dråpsnatt, Sorhin and the like.

Los Males Del Mundo combines today's modern Black Metal sound with late 90's melodic Black Metal, with lyrics deeply influenced by Friedrich Nietzsche, Emil Cioran and A. Schopenhauer.

The band was first created in 2016 as a project between Dany Tee (Acathexis, Downfall of Nur) and Cristian Yans. Nikita Kamprad (Der Weg Einer Freiheit) later joined as a producer and guest musician.

In October 2020 a promotional self-titled EP with two tracks was released through Bandcamp.

Their first full length album, “Descent Towards Death,” containing 5 tracks of 40 minutes length, is an invitation to a conceptual journey, dragging the listener into the darkest and remotest places of the human soul. It reflects an internal battle, expressed as changes between aggressive and furious passages on the one hand, and dense and introspective landscapes full of melancholic melodies on the other.

Collector's Edition in 6-panel digipack, limited to 500 copies.

Lazer Throne’s debut full-length album, Tomb of the Lunar Oracle, opens a portal to the void with genre-bending cosmic atmospheric black metal. The journey begins at the entrance of a massive tomb orbiting a dead star, then hurtles you across time and space as you claw at neon fabric woven from melancholic, brassy synthesizers dripping with celestial blood.

Every sonic and visual element serves the underlying mythos that unfolds throughout the album. Blade Runner-esque synth passages flow into buzzy guitar textures and doomy riffs punctuated by relentless blast beats. In this concept album, the music of Lazer Throne guides you deep into the tomb and toward stars that burn their visage upon a wavering sea heaving at the loss of its moon.

Through immense, haunting soundscapes that emphasize atmosphere and meticulous sound design, Lazer Throne creates an accretion disk of new sound – a cosmic form that pulses and shimmers as it draws from dungeon synth, darksynth, and the blackened corners of doom and thrash to birth something wholly unique among the stars.

In the same vein as Haimad’s spectacular 2019 EP "The Return", their long overdue debut album finally arises like a beacon in the northern night, more than 30 years after the band’s founding, and continues the tradition of mid-90s style, melodic, symphonic Scandinavian Black Metal albums that saw a sort of renaissance in the recent past, most noteworthy with some bands from the Finnish scene. Haimad show that Sweden, too, can still produce albums of the caliber of the 90s classics, and unleashes a majestic coalescence of classic symphony and Black Metal inferno steeped in Tolkien-lore.

Lanciata dalla Northern Silence sull'onda del successo dei Caladan Brood (con cui divideranno anche uno split più avanti nell'anno) ecco questa one-man band italiana. Come pr C.B. anche in questo caso vengono nominati i Summoning come riferimento principale (oltre ad Elffor), anche se i "nostri" sono più focalizzati sulle parti ambient, "folk" ed acustiche, che non su quelle black
 

Digipack CD

Collector's Edition in 4-panel digipack, limited to 999 copies.

Conceptually, Eldamar used to be inspired by J.R.R Tolkien, Heathenism, Elven Magic and Nature. On the new album, however, this focus has shifted more towards existential themes and nonphysical experiences. 

The goal of Eldamar's art has always been to help listeners to open up to the music in an emotional way and combine the experience with their imagination. To that end, the combination of aural and visual impressions was and still is important. Where in the past Eldamar used the gorgeous nature paintings of Albert Bierstadt to help the listener to enter dream-like lands, the new album, which is part one of a two part work, uses a magnificent painting by the Polish master of surreal art Mariusz Lewandowski to give the listener some visual cues as to what this album is about. As usual, the music and art are meant to speak for themselves, and listeners are encouraged to enter into their own spiritual journeys while listening to the new album.

Collector's Edition in 4-panel digipack, limited to 999 copies.

This album features the song "Hagalaz" from the split with Dreams of Nature that was only available on that CD until now, as well as an unreleased demo version of "Spirit of the North" from 2015 and the previously unreleased demo song "Entering Eldamar" from 2015 - a fantastic 15 minutes opus that showcases a much darker and more melancholic side of Eldamar. The earliest beginnings, if you will. All in all you get 40:44 min of rare and unreleased Eldamar material in a strictly limited digipack edition. An absolute must have for fans of the project!

Eldamar is the solo project of Mathias Hemmingby from Askim/Norway, performing Atmospheric Black Metal and Ambient. It was formed in the summer of 2015.

Conceptually, Eldamar is inspired by J.R.R Tolkien, Heathenism, Elven Magic and Nature.

The goal of Eldamar's art is to help listeners to open up to the music in an emotional way and combine the experience with their imagination. To that end, the music on Eldamar’s releases is combined with the gorgeous artworks of famous landscape painter Albert Bierstadt. The combination of aural and visual impressions will allow them to drift away in their own dreams while listening to the songs. With persistence, this practice will carry them right through the gates of Alfheimr/Elvenhome.

After the huge success of Eldamar’s debut album “The Force of the Ancient Land” (2016), which is currently approaching 1.000.000 Plays on Youtube, both expectations and demand for more music in Eldamar’s unique style are very high. The young mastermind behind the band, with an uncanny knack for knowing what his growing crowd of followers wants, plays it cool and easily delivers another quality release that continues right where the debut album and the split EP with Dreams of Nature left off.

 Reissue of the sold out CD from 2018 alongside the band's second album. Comes in jewel case with 8-page booklet.

Bloodbark is an Epic/Atmospheric Black Metal project of unknown origin and should appeal to fans of Caladan Brood and similar bands.
