For a decade now, Finland's WHITE DEATH have built a small-yet-formidable canon of work that's come to define modern underground black metal in their nation. It's no secret that Finland has possessed one of the most potent black metal scenes from the early '90s onward, and with each new generation that picks up the torch, some are contenders and others are just content to uphold "the Finnish sound."
SERMONS OF THE BLACK FLAME is once again pure Black Metal, committed to the traditions of the Scandi-navian school - but even more varied and epic than its two predecessors
Atmospheric Black Metal Art (Exclusively) for dreamers and lone wolves alike: GREVE are handily creating their own niche within an already exclusive niche. Föllo af Svavel, Lifvets Dimridå is their latest monument by which to launch journeys to the stars and/or into the self.

HELL MILITIA, an assemblage of the vilest and most depraved individuals the French underground has spawned who have earned themselves a bad reputation by participating in among others MÜTIILATION, ARKHON INFAUSTUS and TEMPLE OF BAAL burst onto the scene with their first full length in 2005. Preceded only by an appearance on a split 7 inch and a demo, the aptly titled Canonisation of the Foul Spirit was unleashed to wreak havoc and soil anything pure and holy in utter contempt.
The band plays a fast, aggressive style of black metal that would go on to be more 'polished' in later releases. But on Frühlingserwachen, the sound is still quite gritty and raw, despite decent production values, and works well with its subject matter of WWI & WWII (with some anti-religious sentiments thrown in for good measure). The band leans into this theme with vocalist Iblis credited for "propaganda" and drummer Mayhemic Destructor as "artillery," a fitting description for the drums on the album.
Wendul (Wolfsblut & Burkhartsvinter) zeigt hierbei eindrucksvoll das er nicht nur die schnellen Black Metal Klänge spielerisch perfekt in Szene setzt, sondern auch dem Doom-Metal eine majestätische Atmosphäre verleiht.
This is the very first album released by true Norwegian black metallers Emperor. As one of the founding fathers of the symphonic wing of the genre, Emperor have a highly dramatic sound, balancing melodic dark synth melodies with ferocious howling forward movement. 'In The Nightside Eclipse' is reissued via ICARUS.
Offensive, blood- chilling, straightforward black metal. The third and final chapter of trilogy including "Sowing with Salt" & "Justice". The first HATE FOREST album with live drums. Limited edition Digipack CD to the first run, booklet 8 page full colours, sealed.
After over 20 years, we are proud to offer a dark jewel from the Werewolf records vault: The unreleased, and at the time harshly refused and then abandoned original recording of the first Goatmoon album.
