APTORIAN DEMON hail from Trondheim, Norway. They were founded by vocalist, guitarist and sole member Storhetsvanviddets Mester, who has also been known as Ghâsh. APTORIAN DEMON embody black metal in its original bleak and raw form. Their mastermind is neither apologetic about this, nor about the hateful, misanthropic, and satanic content. This is what black metal is about. Storhetsvanviddets Mester is a lone wolf, who does not want to be associated with previous bands or the Nidrosian scene. APTORIAN DEMON have previously released the EP "Angst, jammer og fortvilelse" in 2005 and the debut album "Libertus" (2012), which gained the band a dedicated following in the underground. Naturally, there are no social media outlets. APTORIAN DEMON have deigned the time to be right for their sophomore full-length. Entitled "Liv tar slutt" ('Life Ends'), this album keeps every 'promise' of a strong black metal statement made by the previous releases and will delight dark souls with its cold, harsh, and razor-edged songs. This is Norwegian black metal! Take it or leave it!

For over three decades Black Funeral has channeled currents of pure darkness, and this new invocation is one of their most powerful and sinister albums to date.
This sonic offering to the Jinn is raw, vampyric & occult Black Metal that is laced with dark ambient passages and ritual soundscapes.

Recorded over the cursed first half of 2024, "Flames of Samūm" is dedicated to the Mulūk al-Arḍīya, the Seven Earthly Jinn Kings, each attributed to both the seven days of the week and the planets.
The Mulūk al-Arḍīya possess authority and infernal power that is both malignant and beneficial. The essence of the Earthly Kings is reflective and perhaps emanated from the Unseen and Imaginal world that is both real and not real, existing as a liminal power so beholden to the invisible, scorching winds and fire of Samūm.

This album is an act of Siḥr (Black Magick) that honours and summons with each track, aligned with the King and the planetary association therein. This album is a musical offering to those of the fires of Samūm, the divinely infernal Jinn that may guide or devour the minds and souls of those who open the liminal gates of the subconscious. Within this album, specific elements of lyrical and musical representation, offers subtle acts of Siḥr to summon the vampyric Jinn such as the ‘Ifrit, Ummu Sibyan (one Arabic name of Lilith) who is Tabi’ah, flesh hungry Ghūls and others of the abyssic legions.

The debut release from this sinister entity that is known as Nocturnal Deviancy!
"Eternity's Cold Embrace" is a desolate path towards an undying flame, as the fading relics of what once was returns to dirt and mold.
Melancholic, triumphant and evil Black Metal from the diabolical mind of Vollmond (Flagellant & Feeble Deity).
CD limited to 200 copies.

In 1993, in the midst of the second wave`s heyday, when numerous classic albums saw the light of day and many a blaze ignited the northern sky, GEHENNA were brought forth in Stavanger, Norway`s fourth largest city.
In the course of the same year their efforts resulted in their first and only demo Black Seared Heart which was released by the band on tape in very limited quantities.
The demo comprises 7 songs of which 3 are instrumentals serving as intro and outros respectively.
Although the demo reveals the members` at the time limited capabilites as musicians, it`s, by and large, a very enjoyable  first recording with lasting qualities. The sound is leagues above the average demo production since Black Seared Heart was recorded in a studio.
The moody songs – for the most part played in moderate tempo – are written in a way that reveals GEHENNA as talented songwriters even at this early stage.
Notably, the keyboards, whose remarkable melodies would go on to become one of the band`s trademarks were already present on the demo.

As an added bonus the rerelease of Black Seared Heart comes with an instrumental, a song recorded at the rehearsal-room and most importantly a  studio recording-session that was aborted before completion that was supposed to result in the band`s first EP First Spell.

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.

This release will include a huge 20 page 12” booklet including an in-depth interview (divided into 4 parts, this is part 1) with all 5 original bandmembers and many never seen before pictures.
An A2 poster will be added to every vinyl too and a download-code.

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.

„Jilemnický okultista“ and „Vracejte konve na místo“, underwent new, more sensitive re-mastering.
All titles will be released as gatefold double vinyls and jewel-case CDs.The new artwork includes original, some previously unpublished illustrations and photographs reproduced in the highest quality. The inserted double sheets of the vinyls contain not only lyrics and archival documents but also current interviews with František Štorm.
