"Something wicked this way comes..." Los Angeles, USA, based Diamonds Hadder, fronted by singer and creator John Evermore, has signed a deal with No Remorse Records for the physical release of their debut record called "Beyond the Breakers" (you can listen to it on all the standard digital platforms including Spotify and Apple Music). The record was recorded in an old abandoned paint factory on the east side of LA. Created in the aftermath of a wildfire and a premonition, "Beyond the Breakers" has a classic heavy metal sound reminiscent of early bands like Rainbow, Dio, Savatage and Queensrÿche. It started as a dream of a man named Mr. Evermore and documents the trials and tribulations of a life lost, followed by grief, hope and the ultimate survival of the human spirit as well as a possession of sorts and the arrival of a man named Johnathan Hadder. It’s a classic metal tale of how tragic events may bring redemption and salvation through music and how a premonition became reality and a dream prophetic.

After “Anthropophagy” (1987) and “Who Are the True” (1988),Vulcano entered the 1990s heeding the signs of the times without compromising their initial brutality. As a result, the band’s fifth album “Ratrace” perfectly balances thrashing madness with a more contemporary, midtempo approach. “I was really incredulous about how he managed to save that album,” band leader Zhema comments on Patrick W. Engel’s restored and remastered version on the original tapes. “The vocals, guitars and bass – everything is finally more defined!” And after frequent bad luck with both recording studios and labels, the Brazilian extreme metal forerunners found a capable partner in High Roller Records to reissue “Ratrace”. The album, which saw a glorious return of guitarist Soto Jr. († 2001) from the line-up of the group’s seminal debut “Bloody Vengeance” (1986), would be their last release for 14 years but an impressive temporary farewell no less. With tracks like the two-minute barrage ‘Welcome to the Army’ or the similarly frantic ‘White Violence’ set against more chunky stuff such as ‘Just a Matter of Time’, “Ratrace” is a forgotten thrash gem to be (re-)discovered!

Second press of the third full length by the mighty Italian dark gang on vinyl! Three years after their second album "Return Of The Empire", the Italian Vampire punx combo returns with their new full length „New Wave of Fear’’. The tunes got darker and less punk than their previous releases but, all in all, the formula hasn't changed too much, and, hell yeah, this is a concept album about life and death. The A side has been named "This Side" and deals with things that belong to the world we're living (immigration, the rise of the extreme right wing parties, terror, life in general etc.). The B side has been named "Other Side" and it's all dedicated about death. It's a more intense record and definitely better than their old ones, and you can also hear the crusty roots of some of the members in their last song where Amebix and Fields Of The Nephilim meet in a no men's land to face the end of it all.

Fourth press of the second full length for the Italian vampire punx Horror Vacui after their (already) classic "In Darkness You Will feel Alright" on vinyl! 10 brilliant tracks of pure goth/death rock in the vein of Lords Of The New Church, Spectres, T.S.O.L., Sisters Of Mercy and 1919. This record has originally been released in 500 copies by the American label Black water in support of their October/November 2014 U.S.A. tour and then it's been repressed several times by L.O.T.D./Agipunk, Avant! Records and Plastic Bomb Records. This version includes the 2014 U.S. tour single 7" tracks as a bonus. Don't miss the chance to add this item to your collection or be damned forver!

Though they came together from far corners of the Nordic underground, Night Shall Drape Us are united by blood and an unwavering spirit for fast, melodic, uncompromising black metal.
Their debut album features eight perfectly executed hymns sung by a relentless choir of lunatics. ‘Lunatic Choir’ offers fast blast beats together with raw yet melodic traditional black metal riffs.
“One with the beasts of the black flame”, the band chant in dedication during "Under the Dead Sky", giving themselves into the arms of Holy Death.

Fåntratt’s “Ångerstupa” navigates the mystical expanse of Nordic folklore and seafaring legends, casting an experimental sound that intertwines the haunting melodies of dungeon synth with avant-garde innovation. With contributions from talents like Jovana Ćuk, the album transcends traditional genre boundaries. Fåntratt’s unique sound pays homage to influences like Bo Hansson, Örnatorpet, Paysage d'Hiver and Ildjarn while charting a new course in the realm of esoteric music.
