Experience the essence of death metal with Rotting Christ's "Thy Mighty Contract," now available on CD. This release from Peaceville Records encapsulates the band's dark and powerful sound, making it a must-have for fans of intense and atmospheric music.

CD in deluxe Digipak with 12-page booklet.

ROTTING CHRIST stand as pillars of Hellenic black metal: since 1987, the band have carved out a singular sound that merges extremity, ancient heritage, and ritualistic atmosphere. With ‘Aealo’ (2010), they reached a decisive turning point in their evolution.
This newly re-recorded edition brings renewed fire and clarity to one of the most ambitious works in their catalogue. Completely revitalised with modern production and a far stronger mix, ‘Aealo’ emerges more cinematic than ever: female lamentation choirs, martial percussion, folkloric melodies, and commanding riff-work collide in a sweeping vision of war, tragedy, and pagan spirituality. Guest appearances by Diamanda Galás and Alan A. Nemtheanga (Primordial) heighten the album’s mythic presence, while the enhanced dynamics reveal layers previously buried in the original recording.
Richer, fiercer, and more imposing, this new ‘Aealo’ amplifies every quality that made the album a modern cornerstone of Hellenic black metal.

For fans of NIGHTFALL, MOONSPELL, SEPTICFLESH, PRIMORDIAL, VARATHRON.

CD in Jewel case with 12 page deluxe booklet.

Notorious black metal apostates PROFANATICA emerge from their den of iniquity with the new full-length 'Crux Simplex'.
Their latest salvo of sin and sacrilege, this ten-track offensive is a nasty affront that bastardizes the first 10 stations of the cross.
Led by infamous master of black perversion Paul Ledney, the band deal in bestial, first-wave black metal barbarity, and 'Crux Simplex' unveils ungodly levels of bile and blasphemy.

For fans of (early) MAYHEM, POSSESSED, INCANTATION, HELLHAMMER, BLASPHEMY.

Their debut album titled "Belfry" mix dark ambient drones with vintage heavy occult doom and mesmerizing female vocals that will drive you through a scarlet velvet trip.
 

Messa play evoking doom metal with a dark jazz twist. Deliciously haunting female vocals, rhodes piano and 70’s fuzz guitars combine to conjure a sound that is all of their own. With influences as diverse as Windhand, Bohren Und Der Club Of Gore, The Devil’s Blood, Jex Thoth, Angelo Badalamenti, Bellwitch, Urfaust, John Coltrane and Aluk Todolo, the band has moved from the droning occult doom of their first LP ‘Belfry’ to a new, darker and more atmospheric approach clearly showcased in their new record ‘Feast for Water’, a concept album centered on the introspective, symbolic and ritual features of the liquid element.

Reissue Ltd CD Digipack featuring a 20-pages booklet.
Re-issue features exclusive liner notes and quotes by major figures of the Black metal scene such as Fenriz (Darkthrone), Sakis Tolis (Rotting Christ), Lee Barret (Candlelight) and Hrymr (Helheim) among others

Features the bonus track “Enslaved”, from the Enslaved split with Satyricon “Yggdrasill”, released in 1992

«Paired with the re-issue of “Axioma Ethica Odini”, as these two Enslaved-albums also form an important pair musically; as many of the bands releases do, forming pairs in dynamics sonically and conceptually. Already somewhat of a “cult classic”, this is the album where the production philosophy of “new era” Enslaved was born, through the mentoring of mixer Joe Baressi (Tool, Queens of the Stone Age, Melvins) – recorded in Studio Studio, owned and operated by TNT lead guitarist Ronnie Le Tekrø (who also guests on the album).

This re-issue features two very rare cover-tracks recorded during Enslaved legendary live-appearance at Henie Onstad Museum, Oslo, Norway - in May 2011; one is Rush’s “Earthshine” while the other is King Crimson’s instrumental “Red”. These covers set the rest of the album into context through highlighting two main influences for Enslaved’s evolution from especially “Vertebrae” and onwards.

The re-issue features in-depth liner notes written and edited by writer and long-time friend of the band Chris Dick; known for his decades of writing for the American Metal-magazine Decibel Magazine. The liner notes are written in the style of an in-depth and extensive interview with all five members on the album, where many new angles and golden nuggets of information never before divulged publicly.

The design of the album is beautifully redone with new details, colors layout solutions by Marcelo Vasco (Slayer, Kreator, Machine Head), all while staying true to the original artwork by longtime Enslaved-cover artist Truls Espedal.

Compilation album comprised of rare material that were recorded between 2010 and 2011, previously appeared on extremely limited EPs between the band’s "Axioma Ethica Odini" and "RIITIIR" records.
