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

Vástígr is the solo project of Þ. (Hāg, Ill Tidings and several other projects), Austrian composer, guitarist and singer. Vástígr debut, Aura Aeternitatis, was released by Avantgarde Music in 2019 and impressed all those who dared entering its realm.
A perfect blending of atmospheric black metal and dissonant, complex structures typical to the Icelandic scene, Vástígr music is one of the very rare cases in which a black metal artist is actually crafting something personal and unique.
After a five-year long silence, Vástígr is back with its sophomore album, The Path of Perdition, a cathartic journey through downfall and uprising, of accepting man’s futility and insignificance in a greater (cosmic) scheme. 
As described by Þ., “the eternal cycle goes ever on and could not care less what happens to us. Eventually the wheel of time crushes us all like insects. What remains is memory, ruins, ashes, until even those fade into oblivion – and the knowledge that the cycle shall repeat itself, for better or worse”.
Produced in Iceland at Studio Emissary by Stephen Lockhart (Rebirth of Nefast and producer for Sinmara, Svartidauði, Nexion and many more),
The Path of Perdition will feature once again a cover art by French artist Metastazis, who created art for Blut Aus Nord, Alcest, Amorphis, Ondskapt and many other prominent artists.

Dark, ambient and atmospheric sounds from France.
 

Limited to 150 "Blast Attack" colored vinyl.
Featuring Malignancy and ex Chaos Inception members, the Alabama based death metal quartet BLACK HOLE DEITY is back with the long awaited debut full-length "Profane Geometry". Sharpened sonic attacks of endless blast beats mixed with a melodic sensibility and guitar solos reminiscent of the Shrapnel will deliver the ultimate death metal album for 2024!

For fans of Nile, Morbid Angel, Hate Eternal, Mithras. 

"The Fire Cult Beyond Eternity" is the new album from ONIRIK (Portugal), a follow-up to 2015's "Casket Dream Veneration" and yet another proof of the talent of Gonius Rex, the band's sole member. ONIRIK has been active since 2002 and throughout the years has explored black metal in several approaches, always faithful to its original purpose: the emission of unordinary, dissonant and raw outputs with trance-inducing atmospheres, typically very cold and bathed in magic.
With the special guest participation of none other than Dirge Rep on drums (GEHENNA, ENSLAVED, ORCUSTUS, THE KONSORTIUM), and mixed & mastered by Semjaza of THY DARKENED SHADE, "The Fire Cult Beyond Eternity" is the consequence of the descent and return from below carrying the flames and lava on its scales, giving it back to the world in posthumous vengeance.

The band came into being at the end of 2013, thanks to the artistic collaboration of Sinai and Aharon.
Their first release, an EP, saw the light of day in 2014, marking their musical debut.
In 2016, the band released their debut album entitled "Har HaKarmel", exploring themes related to the decay of paganism.
In 2019, the band released a split in collaboration with Darkenhöld, under the aegis of Les Acteurs de l'Ombre.
Continuing their momentum, 2020 saw the release of their second album, dubbed "? ?e?? ? ßas??e??", distributed by Les Acteurs de l'Ombre. This album delves into the relationship between politics and divinity.
In 2023, the band reveals its third album, entitled "De Republica".

An ode to the Republic, defending the rule of law, egalitarianism and freedom.
Sacralizing the Revolution as a popular expression of the struggle against despotism and the attainment of freedom.
From 19th-century France to the present day, evokes the periods of political instability when the construction of a social republic was able to emerge through the blood of social struggles.
