Black Metal / Pagan black metal

Nové album německé black metalové kapely. Founded in 2001, German black metal instigators Helrunar have gone from strength to strength, establishing themselves as a band approaching Nordic themes with brains. Records such as "Frostnacht" and "Baldr Ok Íss" are regarded as seminal works for the country's scene before the group shook off genre conventions altogether in favour of a holistic approach to extreme music and its topics. This is manifest in 2011's double album "Sól". While their sixth full-length "Niederkunfft" (2015) marked the beginning of a new era with recourse to archaic death and doom metal pondering late medieval superstition in the face of the Enlightenment, successor "Vanitas Vanitatvm" shows yet another tack, albeit within a similar stylistic framework. Musically, front man M.D., who forms one half of the group besides drummer S.K., places "Vanitas Vanitatvm" between its predecessor and the "Sól" era. "The songs are more compact and mature, also mostly faster,...

Bestiální black death metal z Itálie. HIEROPHANT return after six long years with ‘Death Siege’, the latest battery in their assault of unconditional extremity. On the album, the band lets loose a raw, blackened assault that is both feral and relentless. All subtleties are cast asunder as track after track swarms with primal fury. HIEROPHANT is uncompromising in its quest for sonic violence; and ‘Death Siege’ is an earth-scorching escalation in their tactics. For fans of MORBID ANGEL, TEITANBLOOD

Nové a poslední album Holdaar, které završuje a ukončuje existenci této kultovní ruské pagan black metalové kapely. The eleventh full-length album of HOLDAAR black metal division from Koenigsberg. It is the last album closing the chapter of the band that has been active since 2004. With more than a dozen of albums in its discography after 13 years the band calls it quits. Almost every subsequent album of HOLDAAR demonstrates tangible development and opens new musical horizons for its fans. Now the time has come to draw the line. The CD includes cover versions of songs originally performed by black metal genitors: “In the Halls and Chambers of Stardust...” (Isengard) and “Mother North” (Satyricon), and some re-recorded old stuff of the band! With this CD we pay homage and salute to HOLDAAR.

Desáté řadové album ruské pagan black metalové kapely. The material of this 10-track CD is traditionally dedicated to World War II and some facts from earlier epochs. The aggressive lyrics are accompanied with not less aggressive music! Symphonic constituent cedes under the black metal attack – only rare lyrical acoustic overtures give some rest from this squall of gale force. Heavy and underground sound of the album returns listeners back to the early days of HOLDAAR. Nevertheless, it is the best album of the band in terms of recording and production, the album based on mature and truly profound lyrics. The time has come to join in! Launch your war!!!

Temný rituální black metal. Itálie. “Piove Sangue” is a very special album, as it celebrates the twenty-year anniversary of the extreme metal pioneers Hortus Animae, twenty years since the release of their first demo tape "An Abode for Spirit and Flesh" in 1998. This live CD was recorded at Banská Bystrica (Slovakia), on the last date of the Total Metal Over Europe Tour Pt. 2, which the band held with legendary German thrashers Necronomicon, whose vocalist appeared on stage with Hortus Animae for a raging version of Slayer’s “Raining Blood” (from which the album also takes its title, in Italian). This live album highlights a tight band in great musical shape; it is an excellent overview of the band's history and what you can expect when you see them live.

Zbrusu nové, třetí album německé black metalové kapely. Digipack. Vicious and vitriolic, full of raw anger and burning hatred, yet at the same time bursting with live and lingering on moments of astonishing beauty – IMHA TARIKAT's third album "Hearts Unchained – At War with a Passionless World" announces its inherent contradictions and struggles already in the title. Essentially a black metal album in the crackling dry and humourless German style that renounces all bombast and often folk-ish undertones of its Nordic counterparts, IMHA TARIKAT's lyrical and musical mastermind Kerem Yilmaz aka Ruhsuz Cellât has once again created new layers and expanded the dimensions of his unique compositions. While adding even more throat-torturing approaches to his physically violent singing style, the ferocious drumming and relentless churning of frost-covered guitar strings remain as the either ice cold or glowing hot foundations of IMHA TARIKAT. Then again, while his songs twist and turn...
