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
 

Through time and space, a spirit that won't show face. The living man will feel, but the spirit do not kneel. Cause I am not it`s master, it controls everything that grows faster. Three and man is equal out through the sequel. Treat this with respect, the force will protect.

Eldamar Is heavily inspired by the North lands nature Power. Look at it as a journey, and drift away in your own dreams.
 

Comes in an 4-panel digipak with an 8 page booklet.

Dwarrowdelf is a solo-project from the UK. It first made waves in the Atmospheric Black Metal world in 2018, with debut full-length “The Sons of Fëanor”, released to critical acclaim. A follow-up, “Of Dying Lights” was released in 2019, and saw the project start to move away from the Summoning-inspired sound of the debut, incorporating only sung vocals.

"Evenstar" is the third full-length album from Dwarrowdelf and their most unique offering to date, also using live (session) drums for the first time. Following the journey of Aragorn and his quest to earn Arwen's hand in marriage, this record sees Dwarrowdelf incorporating wider Melodeath and Folk Metal influences into their particular brand of Atmospheric Metal to create a truly unique musical journey.

Epic Black Metal in the vein of Summoning! A 71 min glimpse into Steven Erikson's "Malazan Book of the Fallen", "Echoes of Battle" proves the perfect Black Metal interpretation of a work that is peerless in scope and equals J.R.R. Tolkien and G.R.R. Martin in brilliance. Caladan Brood are for Erikson's Malaz what Summoning are for Tolkien's Middle Earth. Epic Black Metal can not be performed better than this!

Darkness, contemplation, and annihilation.
Prison of Mirrors return with their new mini-album, De Sepulchris Occultis et Igne Profanationis — an offering that sinks its hands into the filth of the sacred and corrupts it with its own blasphemous flame.
A work that is bleak, profound, suffocating, and all-encompassing: a sonic ritual that grants no respite and, like a slow-acting poison, will wound its listeners, consuming both mind and senses. 

The new compositions move along the same desolate lines traced by the darkest Blut Aus Nord and Akhlys

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!

These songs revolve around the transformation from man to The Übermensch (German for "Overman, Overhuman, Superman, Superhuman), through the purification of the fire and the metaphor of the warrior, mainly taking inspiration from parts of Vijnanabhairava as well as personal experiences of meditation.

Fire is the main element manifested by Shiva, seen as a purifying factor and dissolving, regenerating and annihilating.
In this case also seen as the awakening of a burning and dissolving energy, which brings chaos and destroys the boundaries of mortality to reach immortality.

Drought is an entity spawned to channel its creators’ creative energy in a black metal form. The Tantric concept has been adopted to transform this energy into a tale of upheaval and elevation, using fire as a metaphor to celebrate spiritual transformation through cleansing, drawing purity from impurity. After a promising debut EP Drought fell into several years of silence, from which they will finally rise this spring to unleash their first full-length album, Trimurti.

As a Lotus grows from the swamp, enlightenment comes from improvement and regeneration. In Trimurti this theme is reprised from the previous ep Rudra Bhakti (2016, also on Avantgarde Music) and deepened, generating three suites - each explaining one of the three phases of this spiritual turmoil, as well as the three phases of Pranayama, and overall, the three phases of evolution: awareness - transformation - elevation. Nine tracks divided into three conceptual segments - this new opus develops and brings forth the tantric concept of the previous release, articulating it into a full spiritual blast of extreme music.

When asked to introduce the album, Drought said: “Trimurti represents the tantric chemistry of our creative energies and the ones kept within the sea, the mountains and the woods which surround us, channeled into music to celebrate the eternal life hidden in this world and in the ones behind it”.

Trimurti will be out on cd and lp (regular and limited) on May 15th / 22nd
