Emerging from the shadows in early 2021, the duo of Count Revenant and Anzillu released TWO full-lengths that year: Necuratul and Arrival of the Plague Bearer. And while both underground veterans are no strangers to black metal, the variety they unleashed with ORDER OF NOSFERAT was most definitely OLD, in every sense of the word. Undead vampiric black metal had truly arisen!
Of course, the duo wasted no time spreading their infection further, as third album Nachtmusik arrived in March 2022 - and yet again do ORDER OF NOSFERAT deliver another full-length, keeping their feverish activity to two albums a year...for now! Bearing the ever-apt title Vampiric Wrath Unleashed, this is the sound of ORDER OF NOSFERAT at their most rabid and bloodthirsty, raging forward with a barely contained violence and fully vintage rawness that harkens to such late '90s French gems as Osculum Infame's debut album or especially Winter Funeral's first demo. And yet, while the pace has quickened (just like the heartbeat of a vampire's next victim), there's another tasteful dusting of moonlit synths, and the melodicism has shifted from sad to nostalgic. Essentially, it's more of ORDER OF NOSFERAT, but proves that their plausibly idiosyncratic version of VAMPIRIC BLACK METAL is seemingly inexhaustible. Inexorable is their march, and it's more triumphant than ever: this is Vampiric Wrath Unleashed! ORDER OF NOSFERAT lineup Count Revenant - vocals, guitars, bass, keyboards Anzillu - drums

The gentlemen said goodbye with the album „Hunger for Life.“ (2012). The satanic ride of the German band DIES ATER began in 1996. Finest melodic black metal. The demo was released back then in an edition of 250 copies. In 2025, we re-released the demo in its original layout and sound.

The legendary demo „Promo 94“ by Belgian band ENTHRONED has been released repeatedly on vinyl or CD. However, it has never been released on tape since. Now, the tape is being released in its original layout with the original soundtrack. It is not unreasonable to say that the 25 minutes of material that make up this furious and absolutely evil “Promo 94” have contributed to this rise. This cult tape marked the beginning of the Horde’s triumphant rise.
Das blaue Tape ist limitiert auf 50 Stück und erscheint in ein stabilen Schiebe-Pappschatulle mit einem stylischen Flaschenöffner in Form einer Gewehrpatrone aus festem Messing.
RISING MOON, a black metal project with active and former members of XIV DARK CENTURIES, emerged from the dark depths of the Thuringian Forest. In 1998, they released their only demo “Rising” – a now legendary work that breathes the unmistakable spirit of the 90s with its raw sound and atmospheric sound. This cult demo is now being re-released – in the original layout and with the authentic sound that made it an insider tip in the scene back then. A powerful testimony to German black metal history that has lost none of its impact
Shroud of Satan's 2013 debut EP is made available again on vinyl. More than 10 years ago this 4-track-ep has immediately put the band on the map as yet another powerful dark force from our local scene. No-nonsense Black Metal war that draws heavy inspiration from various extremists of the Finnish Underground. On this re-release the EP's 20 minutes of pure satanic black art are enriched by rare and unreleased bonus songs.

The black metal ultras of WHISKEY RITUAL are back with six roar-along anthems from the gutter. Six punky cover versions to freak out to, bursting with destructive energy and diabolically blackened - all that remains are shards and blood. And the Italian black 'n' rollers also have an important message to deliver: Fuck you!
Wampyric Rites is evoked from his deep sleep in the anno MMXIX by three ghostly entities inside the desolate dungeons covered by the dust of time and drinking from the chalice the ecstasy of the ancient spirit of Black Metal and Old School Dungeon Synth resulting in his first work called Demo I.
