As the fog rises the rivers of blood will burst their banks, and the world will drown in their own decline. With each release in more than 15 years of activity BLOOD RED FOG more and more cemented their status as constantly fascinating, ever genuine force of darkness that nourishes itself from the eternal black flame. The band's fifth album "Fields of Sorrow" is yet another, maybe their most impressive evidence of how excellent these men connect skillful songwriting and a state of being deeply lost in a possessed, trancelike state of creativity. Over the course of more than 50 minutes each of these five heavily grievous songs, framed by intro and outro as well as pierced by a psychedelic intermezzo, breathes manifold moments of cold majesty and contagious gloominess, confidence and profoundness, obscurity and passion, shadows, misery and pain.

Profanatica's brand of blasphemous filth remains as unwavering as ever, and their 2019 album Rotting Incarnation of God is another testament to their unholy devotion. With this full-length, Paul Ledney and company unleash a sonic assault that is both punishing and ritualistic, dragging the listener through murky depths of blackened death metal depravity.
Originally released in various limited editions since early 2019, Burning Banners of the Funereal War began the saga that is WARMOON LORD. Arguably the best-kept secret of the ever-fertile Finnish black metal underground, the band is the sole work of one Lord Vrajitor, a prolific figure in the wider Finnish music underground, but also concurrently the mainman of Old Sorcery. But whereas that band largely/mostly works within the dungeon synth genre, WARMOON LORD is pure & proud black metal of a most fantastical nature - equally medieval, maybe even more so, but burning with icy-hot passion that so fired the second wave during the mythical 1990s.
