SATANIC WARMASTER needs no introduction. Since the band's formation in 1998, founder Werwolf has prolifically - and provocatively - stoked fires that refuse to be quenched. A totally independent artist in all aspects, SATANIC WARMASTER has sold hundreds of thousands of albums internationally and played stages all across the world, from north to south and east to west. The band's black metal is devoutly traditional but eternally fruitful, standing as an immovable monument to the purest and proudest foundations of the artform. As such, SATANIC WARMASTER is hated and loved with equally strong passion, with those naysayers only feeding that fire with falsehoods and gross misconceptions. There is no middle ground: no apologies, and no surrender.
The new album, entirely performed, recorded, and mixed by Werwolf, was created in complete isolation between 2021 and 2024. Exultation of Cruelty emanates a wintry breath reminiscent of the rising Black Metal underground of the early 2000s, capturing the original barbaric essence of SATANIC WARMASTER-before the dilution of "Finnish Black Metal" by today's trends.
The black metal ultras of WHISKEY RITUAL are back with six roar-along anthems from the gutter.

ΑΧΕΡΟΝΤΑΣ stands beyond and against the veils of mundane illusion. In a world shackled by politics—the ultimate deception and enslavement of the mind—the Coven upholds the path of individual ascension, where spiritual evolution is the only truth and the only freedom. For almost three decades, ΑΧΕΡΟΝΤΑΣ has not merely played music—it has performed Spiritual Art. The Great Work endures…
Back in 1998 I stumbled upon the first Pest demo and was instantly captivated by it. The insane vocals, the crazy selfmade photos, the prominent bass guitar, the acoustic parts, just the songs in itself.
"To Lunar Poetry" is a full-length album that contains the new versions of timeless classics from the "Lunar Poetry" demo that were written by the band (thus leaving in 1996 the material from other authors that was present of the demo). Beyond this, new album brings forth the renewed Return of the Vampire Lord epic initially released in 1997 on the EP of the same name and new full-force intro composition.
