The latest work of death metal psychosis from Australia... PORTAL's "Swarth" is the death metal release that invokes the end of the world and is Portal's most surreal, disturbing, and irregular offering to date. The approach to Portal's style of death metal has always tread the fine line between sheer madness and the intricately artful. Cinematic in scope, like a death metal interpretation of The Cabinet Of Dr. Cagliari or the death metal soundtrack to an ancient silent arthouse flick gone terribly awry, Portal have pretty much transcended the interpretation of what death metal should portray, and simply inverted and twisted it to no end. Even moreso on "Swarth".

Hymns from the deep is an exploration of the dark depths of Moria from J.R.R. Tolkien’s venerated The Lord of the Rings. The lyrics are one long epic poem written by Myrddin Evans, based on the chapter 'The Bridge of Khazad Dum' from The Fellowship of the Ring. This spans across the tracks of the album which musically draws influence from funeral doom, death metal, black metal and dark ambient. All music and instrumental performances come from Daniel Scrivener with Matthew Surry channeling the voice of the Balrog to complete the project. This is cavernous and foreboding funeral doom that is highly recommended to fans of EVOKEN, THE RUINS OF BEVERAST, ESOTERIC.

3CD set from Chinese atmospheric black metal masters ZURIAAKE. Includes the band's debut full-length 'Afterimage Of Autumn' originally released in 2007 and their highly praised second studio album 'Gu Yan'from 2015. Also features the EPs 'Autumn Of Sad Ode', 'Winter Mirage', 'The Sacrifice' and 'Resentment In The Ancient Courtyard'.

Founded in 1998 by Blood Fire and Blood Sea in Jinan city, Shandong Province, ZURIAAKE is one of the earliest extreme metal bands in China.

In May 2017, ZURIAAKE was invited by Finland’s Steelfest Open Air, the largest black metal music festival in northern Europe where the band played its first European show. The three piece became the first Chinese metal band that performed in northern Europe.

In the following years, the atmospheric black metal act returned to various European festivals, such as Roadburn, Wacken Open Air, Brutal Assault and Midgardsblot, building their name in the international metal scene.

At long last, OSMOSE PRODUCTIONS reissues the classic debut album of PAN-THY-MONIUM, Dawn of Dreams! Originally released in 1992 by a very young OSMOSE, at the beginning of what many hold as the label's "classic years," PAN-THY-MONIUM was formed by scene legend Dan Swanö (Edge of Sanity, Nightingale, Bloodbath) and members of Ophthalamia to indulge in - and push ever further - the most bizarre and avant-garde boundaries of death metal. An opening track that's over 20 minutes long, saxophone freakouts, wordless vocals, constantly shape-shifting song structures full of swampy riffing and careening blastbeats...everything but the kitchen sink goes into Dawn of Dreams. Although it caused confusion upon its original release, the album later became a cult classic with my underground fanatics and other weirdos, especially fans of Swanö's vast body of work. Experience it again (or for the first time) and blow your mind!
