Since their formation in 2007, MINENWERFER have pursued a proud 'n' pure vision of black metal idiosyncratically focused on World War I - idiosyncratic, in the sense that the band hail from America but mostly sing in German. What has resulted is a startlingly accomplished canon that has quietly built itself into prolific proportions, with their first album arriving in 2010, followed by albums in 2012 and 2019, and a slew of split releases and EPs in the interim.

Of those many short-length releases, Kriegserklärung can conveniently be seen as a companion to an album release – in this case, 2012's thick-yet-throttling Nihilistischen. And yet, where that album saw MINENWERFER inching closer to a palatable professionalism, the 24-minute Kriegserklärung fully bursts through those doors with a startling clarity, setting the stage for the band's grand 2019 full-length, Alpenpäesse. Which is all to say that MINENWERFER have been mining songwriting gold for many years now!

OSMOSE PRODUCTIONS have been fans of MINENWERFER for years, and is honored to unleash their once-underground back catalog on the wide scale it so deserves.

Re-issue, 400x heavyweight marble (gold/black) ) 12" (180g) in a black poly-lined innersleeve, download card, gatefold, full-color printed on 350g carton, all assembled in a plastic overbag.

Released in January 2013 as a 7", this split ep is now being reissued ten years later as a 10" with some changes on the MonumentuM side:
PJ Harvey's classic "The River" is here featured in a different version from the one on the original ep, plus, to bless the two bands sodality, we are adding the song "In Misery Front Row", which originally appeared in 1998 as an instrumental track called "The Colour Of Compassion" on Misanthopy Records label's compilation Presumed Guilty, but hereby featuring Shining's mastermind Niklas Kvarforth on vocals.

Endstille‘s Infektion 1813 is an absolute powerhouse of relentless black metal aggression. From the very first note, this album grips you with its unyielding intensity and refuses to let go. The razor-sharp riffs cut through like icy winds, while the thunderous drumming drives each track forward with a merciless precision.

Tracks like “When Kathaaria Falls” and “Endstille (Völkerschlächter)” showcase the band’s signature rawness, blending chaotic energy with cold, calculated atmosphere. The production strikes a perfect balance – gritty enough to maintain the genre’s authenticity yet clear enough to let every blistering guitar line and bone-crushing blast beat shine through.

Vocally, Zingultus delivers a savage performance, his voice a tortured growl that channels pure hatred and despair. Each track feels like a battlefield, evoking the album’s wartime themes with chilling effectiveness. Infektion 1813 stands as a testament to Endstille‘s ability to craft ferocious yet memorable black metal. For fans of extreme music seeking a sonic assault that leaves no survivors, this album is an essential listen.

Prepare to be overwhelmed.

This album is re-released in a Deluxe vinyl edition in two marbled colors: Marbled White/Black and Black/Red vinyl, each edition is limited to 500 copies.

Endstille’s Kapitulation 2013 is a blistering statement of defiance, delivering a ferocious blend of relentless riffs, pounding drums, and sheer sonic violence. From start to finish, the album radiates unrelenting aggression, staying true to the band’s raw and uncompromising black metal roots.

Tracks like “Aborted” and “The Refined Nation” hit with devastating force, combining furious tremolo-picking guitars and relentless blast beats that feel like an unstoppable war machine marching forward. The production is sharp yet retains just the right amount of rawness, giving the music an authentic and hostile edge.

Vocalist Zingultus commands the soundscape with a venomous intensity, spitting each lyric with wrathful precision. The album’s bleak atmosphere is palpable, immersing the listener in a sonic assault that feels both chaotic and meticulously controlled. Kapitulation 2013 isn’t just an album – it’s a battlefield, a relentless barrage that refuses to compromise. For die-hard black metal fans, this record stands as a bold and powerful testament to Endstille’s unwavering dedication to the genre.

Prepare for total sonic annihilation.

With their seventh studio album "Otra", Norwegian avant-garde metal stalwards IN THE WOODS... might surprise their listeners – and particularly those, who have not followed the remarkable evolution that the band from the southern Norwegian city of Kristiansand has undergone since the early nineties. The tracks of "Otra" are surprisingly captivating with melodic tunes dominating the present sound of IN THE WOODS... – although progressive elements and the occasional rough reminder of the Norwegians' harsh past are also regularly shimmering through the fabric of these songs. What sets "Otra" apart from the average heavy work of music is the excellence of composition that shows expert level experience and comes with a seeming ease that makes the achievement even greater. Lyrically, "Otra" revolves around stories connected to the eponymous river that winds for 245 kilometres through the South of Norway and spills into the Skagerrak, the strait that separates the country from Denmark and Sweden, at the band's home in Kristiansand. There is hardly a need to introduce the name IN THE WOODS... to any adherent of avant-garde and black metal. Their coordinates within the scene are also well known: The Norwegians were among the bands that have participated in the burgeoning evolution of black metal in the early nineties and have had a large part in the shaping of the sound of a strong subgenre. Their first full-length "Heart of the Ages" (1995) has a lasting impact on black metal and is rightfully regarded as one of the genre's early classics. Refusing to rest on their laurels, IN THE WOODS... progressed further into different musical dimensions with "Omnio" (1997) and "Strange in Stereo" (1999). Following a long hiatus between the years 2000 to 2014, the Norwegians returned with vocalist James Fogarty, who continued to front the band until December 2021. With a new line-up and singer Bernt Fjellestad completing IN THE WOODS... a fresh direction was taken with the album "Diversum" (2021). With "Otra", IN THE WOODS... demonstrate the full strength and artistic maturity of the Norwegians' third incarnation. Enticing and highly pleasurable to listen to, this exciting record is nonetheless crammed with glorious details and surprising twists that reveal themselves only after many spins.

 "Depravation" recorded in analog system. Old reel tapes in the city of lima- country: Peru, South America. Now again in CD/LP formats. After releasing the hit debut album "Demoniac Flagellations" in 2004, this group of Peruvian alcoholics evoked us to drink and write music for this insane new album. For those who never heard of us in the past, we play a mix of Black, Thrash and fast Death Metal, in the vein of old South American devils like Sarcofago Sepultura, Vulcano and American line like Morbid Angel, Death, Deicide.
Well, they can only hear a lot of wicked metallic chaos. If you're looking for a dose of energy and hate to mosh your bedroom walls when it plays underground, remember to thank me for this recommendation after listening to this album! The drummer here mercilessly thrashes throughout the entire album, the bassist/vocalist executes well both the 4-string desecration works and the throat torments, reminiscent of the era of "I.N.R.I." Wagner Antichrist himself!
The guitarist delivers not only fast and furious riffs, but also fucking aggressive solos! If you expected these Peruvian blasphemers to pity your ears by providing clean productions, you were sorely mistaken! This album has raw anal(og) production straight out of Peruvian hell! Some of the songs here are performed in their native languages, and some are sung in raw-as-life English, but I guess the lyrics you won't understand aren't much of a loss, as the (really!) strong side of this product it's merciless music! It's abundantly clear why this album got a huge vinyl release from From Beyond! With cover artwork done by Spanish master Juanjo Castellano.
A must have in your collection!

Osmose Productions is very proud to present one of the most depraved, full of insanity metal of Death & Black metal from Peru.

Since their formation in 2007, MINENWERFER have pursued a proud 'n' pure vision of black metal idiosyncratically focused on World War I - idiosyncratic, in the sense that the band hail from America but mostly sing in German. What has resulted is a startlingly accomplished canon that has quietly built itself into prolific proportions, with their first album arriving in 2010, followed by albums in 2012 and 2019, and a slew of split releases and EPs in the interim.

That second album, Nihilistischen, took a moodier turn from MINENWERFER's throttling debut album, Volkslieder. But while a relative expansion of dynamics made their songs sound even more epic, the duo likewise upped the muscle to their attack, arriving at a thicker soundfield than that no-less-considerable predecessor. What results is a work equally steeped in the ugly underground and the yonder battlefields of professionalism.

Re-issue, 296x gold 12" (180g) in a black poly-lined bag, download card, gatefold jacket full color on 350g, all assembled in a plastic overbag.

Full coloured cover with white inner jacket + Insert. Limited to 100 copies on 12" Vinyl.
