Danish black metal force Afsky return with full-length number four simply entitled "Fællesskab", once again delving deep into the bleak, atmospheric realms that have defined their signature sound. Fællesskab reveals their most critical and emotionally charged work to date, a deeply personal voyage into the heart of Nordic black metal, where raw emotion and melodic depth keep reveling in sorrow and longing beauty.

Translating to “Community”, Fællesskab's six tracks weave a strong musical oeuvre within the Afsky canon; their walls of haunting melancholia, interwoven with vital intensity, have never been more powerful. Yet, this new work also sees the band at its sharpest in social criticism, as Ole Luk of Afsky notes:

Fællesskab - Overture to the Downfall.
Here, community is praised like herd animals fleeing responsibility. A parade of moral superiority, where truth is trampled in the name of consensus. Where unity means silence, and doubt is a crime. Six songs of shame disguised as care, of freedom suffocated, and of the solitary few who still dare to question. A chorus of hollow words, where silence screams the loudest. Welcome to the celebration – the curtain hasn’t just risen, it’s been torn away!

Isen’s debut album delivers a powerful blend of melodic black metal, diving deep into the aggressive essence of late Norwegian second wave while weaving in melodic elements reminiscent of classic Swedish black metal, yet with a unique twist. Cutting riffs, bleak atmospheres, and organic production converge to form an album that honours the genre’s golden era, yet forges its own dark and evocative path. Each track unfolds like a puzzle piece in a haunting journey through frozen emotional landscapes, where melancholy and fury coexist in eerie harmony. A must-have for any fan of the genre

“Art Bleeds” Art Bleeds is the first full-length album by Gory Blister, released originally in 1999 (and re-issued in 2003 by Sekhmet Records). Even with its complicated publication history, it established Gory Blister as a significant and distinctive force in the Italian death metal scene. "Art Bleeds" can be compared to the later, more progressive work of Death, with similarities in the progressive death metal style, single-string note progressions, and even the vocal style. It is also noted for its high-precision, surgical playing and chaotic tempo changes, breaks, and harmonic dissonance. It balances intense aggression (often with a thrash metal feel) with a strong sense of melody, which is woven into the complex and fast riffs without losing intensity. This two cd version contains the album, a remastered version of the "Cognitive Sinergy" mini, the two demos and some live bonus tracks from the period.
