 The pale light that shines in a kingdom of darkness could be just another deadly lure...

After a debut album showing the will to re-ignite the flame of a sophisticated and emphatic approach of extreme metal, yet still deeply rooted in the second wave of Scandinavian BM, DEATHCODE SOCIETY are back with “Unlightenment”, a merciless dive into the aphotic zone, as the cover artwork by Kjell Age Melland shows.

Epic and eerie, the seven songs explore the depth of the human mind through a restless and tempestuous music melting together a brutal metal instrumentation with orchestral arrangements, choirs, synths and concrete samples.

With lyrics bathed in dark surrealism – two of them being rendering of poems by Andrew Joron and René Daumal – “Unlightenment” is a musical journey through the Other Side and this gloomy maze where psychosis, murderous urges and mystical obsessions endlessly wander.

Since their formation in the dying days of the year 2013, PHRENELITH have established themselves as a menacing force on the contemporary death metal scene. Dwelling in the dark pits of Copenhagen, the band honed their deadly craft, releasing a wealth of well-received demos, splits, and EPs. These primitive outbursts led to the release of their debut album, Desolate Endscape, in 2017, which has earned them much renown and praise, further solidifying their place in underground death metal. Furthermore, that debut album took them to far-flung corners of the world, allowing them to tour extensively in Europe and North America, and make festival appearances at Maryland DeathFest and Asakusa DeathFest in Japan among others. Several years having passed since the conception of their monumental debut album, PHRENELITH have been slowly conjuring up new material, which has culminated in the creation and recording of a new full-length that will soon be unleashed upon the world. Titled Chimaera, PHRENELITH’s second album comprises seven songs of bludgeoning death metal, with lyrics heavily inspired by the darker terms of Greek mythology and shows a horrid-yet-familiar visage. While delving into new and uncharted musical territory, incorporating new refining elements, PHRENELITH’s attack is accompanied by the downtuned darkness and death-rattling emissions that the band is known for. Truly, it is not hyperbole to suggest that Chimaera eclipses the expansive horror of Desolate Endscape.

In 2016 composer, multi-instrumentalist, and sole member Thor gave rise to ÓREIĐA in the cavernous and volcanic landscapes of northern Iceland.

"The Eternal" - the band's second full-length and DMP debut – is a contemplative trek into the haunted sublime: traces of Post-punk, Shoegaze and Industrial are filtered through the lens of totemic '90s Black Metal into 5 transcendent and trance-inducing tracks which wed uplifting harmony, off-kilter melodicism, and passages akin to being in the barrage of a blinding snowstorm.

We are very proud to bring you the latest release from two of the most interesting, intriguing, and all-round excellent artists current operating within the black metal sphere today. A single track each from the twin enigmas; Celestial Sword, with his chilling vocals, piercing though the clouds of distortion to summon body-rocking crescendos from the cosmic static (with drums courtesy of Palisade); and Trhä, with a slower, more insidiously atmospheric piece of spirit-shaking, spine-tingling darkness, cut with resonant shards of radiant melancholy.
