From the frost-shrouded crypts of eternity emerges Black Funeral's unholy testament, "Vampyr Throne of the Beast" - a glacial monument to the undead sovereigns who rule from shadows beyond mortal comprehension. This arcane opus channels the primordial darkness of castle keeps and moonless nights, where ancient bloodlines converge in blasphemous ritual. Released originally in 1995, “Vampyr…” is the debut album that established Black Funeral as one of the foundational bands in the American black metal scene.
Each track unfolds like parchment scrolls inscribed with forbidden knowledge, weaving tremolo-picked melodies that slice through the veil between worlds. The album's frigid atmosphere conjures images of candlelit chambers where vampiric nobility hold court, their pale forms draped in medieval splendor as they preside over kingdoms of bone and shadow.
Raw, hypnotic passages cascade like winter winds through gothic spires, while ritualistic percussion echoes from stone halls where no mortal foot has tread for centuries. The production's deliberate coldness preserves the necromantic essence - each note crystallized in ice, each vocal incantation rising from depths where daylight dare not venture.
"Vampyr Throne of the Beast" stands as a grimoire of black metal orthodoxy, summoning the spectral majesty of Europe's darkest medieval legends. This is music for the witching hour, when the boundary between the living and the eternally damned grows thin, and ancient powers stir in their unhallowed thrones.

Re-issue with a complete updated layout and new mastering.

Tara, as a dual-album set. Originally released in late May of 2001, it has been a highly celebrated recording and a loyal favorite amongst Absu's followers. Unlike the band's previous two releases, Tara is a concept album that principally deals with the harmony of strife, immortality, puissance and tyranny. It was immediately conceived after their 1998 release of In The Eyes Of Ioldánach when drummer/vocalist Proscriptor's frustration grew with the sinking intelligence in the extreme metal world – it was his calling to fully educate his audience. Therefore, the album features a lexicon (glossary) insert of pensive occult systems and mythological notations – to assist the listener with an enlightened, more comprehensive understanding. As always, Kris Verwimp infuses the gatefold with three sensational illustrations. (Full-color poster included).

All music and lyrics by the Northernmost Killers of the Dead !

On their demos and first full-length Shadows of the Past, the band played death metal. On their second full-length North from Here, the band added progressive elements to their sound. After that, the band made a complete switch from death metal to gothic metal starting their third full-length Amok.

Sentenced split up in 2005, after a farewell album titled The Funeral Album and an extensive farewell tour. On October 1st, 2005, at their last gig, in their hometown of Oulu, Taneli Jarva joined the band to sing a few songs from North from Here, Amok, and Love and Death.

The debut album Seepia was documented in 2003 and displayed a destructive aural assault as rusty and antique as the artwork portrays, a bastardisation of Beherit & Immolation in recognition.

 Unlike many bands which when they find a good melody repeat it over and over, Nokturnal Mortum use a skill of subtly varying the melody to create a progress of change and then after a while return to the initial melody. Brilliant keyboard work and the vocals are done just right. Return Of The Vampire Lord, one of the best black metal songs ever recorded ! Includes Death SS, Burzum & Graveland cover songs.

Re-issue, CD booklet 8 page stapled with PMS print, re-mastered specially for CD.
