After 16 years of deathlike slumber, Hate Forest is back with a new album called " Hour Of the Centaur" created and recorded in few days of April 2020. You will not find anything trendy or new here - band's same unpenetrable dark wall of sound and bottomless maelstrom exclusively.
This is laconic and honest black metal crafted on Old Europe's eastern frontier, full of disgust to modern pseudo-intellectual, selfie/ Instagram "black metal".
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.
