Italy’s BLACK SPELL set release date for new HELTER SKELTER album, reveal first tracks

Today, Helter Skelter Productions (distributed & marketed by Regain Records) announces December 9th as the international release date for the highly anticipated third album of Italy’s Black Spell, Season of the Damned, on CD and cassette tape formats. The digital version will be available on November 11th while vinyl LP version is expected for release on January 20th, 2023.

Since their bolt-from-the-blue debut album in 2020, Italy’s Black Spell have swiftly caused a stir in the stoner doom scene. That the band honors the noble Italian roots and their homeland’s rich history of both doom and psychedelic rock is a given; that they then impart their own twisted personality into such is what gives them staying power. And after two full-lengths and an EP in just two years of existence, the saga of Black Spell is only beginning…

Now, that saga’s fit to become legend – and a seedy ‘n’ sordid one, of course – with the release of Black Spell‘s third full-length in nearly as many years. Appropriately titled Season of the Damned, the sonic warlocks’ third full-length sees them hitting of a fever pitch of their bewitching powers. At once strictly stoner doom and aiming for rowdier, more rockin’ territory, Season of the Damned is Good Times / Bad times writ large: the drugs hit harder, and so do the hooks. Black Spell thus slog through the dark, primordial muck with a more assured swagger, seeking dustier and more arid realms and rocking the rock out as they do. So, even when that primordial muck threatens to get really DARK (and really icky/sticky), a devilish sense of fun or least (black) celebration arises. How can life be Hell when you’ve got these dope jams as your soundtrack?! This ain’t no summer/winter of love: it’s the Season of the Damned!

In the meantime, hear the brand-new tracks “Black Abyss,” “We Drink Your Blood,” and “Dead Dawn”  here:

QRIXKUOR set release date for new INVICTUS / DARK DESCENT EP, reveal excerpt

Emerging from the serpentine susurrus left in the wake of last year’s monstrous two-part epic Poison Palinopsia, Qrixkuor swiftly rise again to present a new EP titled Zoetrope – a single black arrow of death sent straight to the heart of the world – to be released on CD and tape formats on November 18th, joined in darkness again by Invictus Productions in Europe and Dark Descent Records in the USA, with the vinyl version to follow in mid-2023.

Returning to Priory Recording Studios in Birmingham, England, to record, mix, and master the track with the acclaimed Greg Chandler and with cover art this time contributed by the extraordinary Santiago Caruso, the textural approach of Zoetrope dilates the divine eye of death metal to unmapped dimensions, dispatching a boot to the face of the idea that its marriage with symphonic timbres must be synonymous with floral harmonies backed by sterile production and performed by lifeless sample libraries. Zoetrope is majestic, but any beauty has long since withered, and what remains is the discordant dirge of Qrixkuor‘s cacophonous duet with the Orchestra of the Eternal Return. 

Zoetrope is an ode to the terror of the cyclic infinite – the endless, silent scream of a mind that has wandered so far that it cannot return. The soul that burns on everlasting, each thousand-year journey the mere blink of an eye. There is no escape… 

In the meantime, hear an excerpt of Zoetrope here:

Australia’s ESKHATON set release date for new HELLS HEADBANGERS mini-album, reveal first track – features members of CEMETERY URN+++

Today, Hells Headbangers announces November 18th as the international release date for a brand-new mini-album from Australia’s Eskhaton, Horracle, on CD format. The 12″ vinyl version will follow next year.

Eskhaton is CYCLONIC DEATH METAL: absolute chaos and total death – psychotic, bestial, raw blistering ferocity and horror atmosphere – from Melbourne, Australia. Eskhaton means Total Death: the end of all things and time.

Formed by Invokocide (vocals/guitars) in 1999, with the addition of Whirwindead (guitars) in 2002, it was not until November 2008 when Hammerkill joined on drums that the lineup was able to record, with bass work done by Whirlwindead and Invokocide until a bassist could be found.  Two albums and an EP were recorded and released between 2011 and 2014, with the EP being unreleased until 2018.  The lineup changed in 2015 when Militiarkh was possessed to take hold of the drums, who later also did live shows for Hobbs Angel of Death.

Live shows for Eskhaton began 2014 after Abyssnil (Ignivomous) joined on bass 2014-16, and following live efforts of Telesmaniak 2016, Christfallen 2017, Keraborous (Inverloch/Ignivomous) 2018/19. In 2020, Sublimorkunt was possessed for the bass role and the coming Horracle recording plus future recordings.

To date, Eskhaton have released three albums, with 2018’s Omegalitheos being the most recent offering and which sent the band on a barrage of destruction in Australia, New Zealand, Mexico, and twice in Europe between 2018-2019, alongside such bands as Incantation, Cemetery Urn, Impetuous Ritual, Diocletian, Heresiarch, Sabbat (Japan), King Parrot, Nocturnal Graves, Watain, Cult Of Fire, Krisiun, Drawn And Quartered, Funebrarum, Krypts, Interment, Venenum, Mitochondrion, Force Of Darkness, Weregoat, Tombmold, Godless, Nocturnus AD, Full Of Hell, Mispyrming, Inverloch, Beheaded, Altarage, and many more, including two performances at the Brutal Assault fest in consecutive years plus the afterparty show in Prague.

All those years spent taking their Total Death metal madness across stages far and wide have finally culminated in Eskhaton‘s grandest statement to date, and yet also their shortest: the five-song/30-minute Horracle. However, lumber under no belief that this recording is lacking in any respect; in fact, any longer and Horracle might simply be too horrifying to endure. Decaying occultism and tortured extremity coalesce into a hammering whirlwind that showcases Eskhaton‘s most diverse songwriting, spanning both their fastest and slowest tracks. Chaos and epic evil are still at the forefront of their attack, but the band’s exceptional tightness – even when tempting those very corners of chaos – is a demonic delight to experience. That they take such serpentine material, impossibly murky and already palpitating at the very core, and deliver it with a katana-sharp clarity is even more demonic. Thus, Horracle is truly titled.

And Eskhaton are just getting started: a new full-length for Hells Headbangers is already in the works. Those borderlanders into both Psycroptic and Pseudogod, Cryptopsy and Conqueror, you MUST witness this Horracle!


In the meantime, hear the brand-new track “Vortexecution” here:

HELVELLYN set release date for PURITY THROUGH FIRE debut, reveal first track – features members of THY DYING LIGHT, NEFARIOUS DUSK, ÚLFARR, MORTE LUNE

Today, Purity Through Fire announces November 4th as the international release date for Helvellyn‘s highly anticipated debut album, The Lore of the Cloaked Assembly, on digipack CD format. The vinyl LP version will follow next year. Tape version to be released by Worship Tapes.

Formed in 2010, Helvellyn are part of the Cumbrian Black Metal orbiting around the incredibly prolific P.G., who currently numbers labelmates Thy Dying Light, Nefarious Dusk, Úlfarr, and Morte Lune among his many endeavors. Joining him in Helvellyn are other equally prolific members of the UK metal underground whose credits also include Thy Dying Light as well as Heathen Deity, Volition, Skiddaw, and Absinthropy among many others.

Now, after a handful of short-length releases, Helvellyn arrive with their debut album, The Lore of the Cloaked Assembly. No more but definitely no less, The Lore of the Cloaked Assembly is a compact summation of the Helvellyn aesthetic during the past decade, but sharpened to ice-cold perfection. Theirs is a deliberately (and proudly) traditional style of black metal set somewhere around 1995; the paradigmatic works of earliest Dodheimsgard, Gorgoroth, and especially Darkthrone as well as later gatekeepers like Armagedda and Sweden’s Craft keep the parameters pure and cold. Indeed, to say The Lore of the Cloaked Assembly could’ve come out on Malicious Records back in the mid ’90s should be viewed as the highest of compliments, so cryogenically authentic is Helvellyn‘s attack here. Those who know, KNOW, for this is The Lore of the Cloaked Assembly!

Begin knowing with the brand-new track “Sacrilegious Violations” here:

Cover artwork, courtesy of Misanthropic-Art, and tracklisting are as follows:

RITUAL DEATH set release date for SHADOW debut album, reveal new track

Today, Shadow Records (distributed & marketed by Regain Records) announces December 5th as the international release date for Ritual Death‘s highly anticipated debut album, Ritual Death, on CD and cassette tape formats. The vinyl LP version is expected for release on December 24th.

This is the darkness of Death…

Born from self-devouring fires and frustration, Ritual Death has its roots in an insatiable and untameable flame as old as the World itself. An offering to the Daimon in us, a celebration of our Shadow-self, a call from the wild, a sacrifice to the only God that humanity cannot kill. The Lord of the Graves, the God that always saves.

Formed in 2016, with a 7’’, a 10’’ and a fistful of splits, Ritual Death is finally ready to unleash their first full-length album through a label wrapped in the same obscure cloak as the band itself, the genre-defining Shadow Records.

This is Black Metal from the Graveyard, music made from obscurities and horrors seen and unseen, terror, blasphemy, heresy, dread and ancient worship, forged in the very depths of the catacombs of Nidrosia.

We unchain the night… The pale king is here…. 

In the meantime, hear the brand-new track “Lunae” here:

Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

Tracklisting for Ritual Death’s Ritual Death
1. Ancient Devil Worship
2. Vermin
3. Lunae
4. Black Metal Terror
5. Morbid Veils of Kharon

CULT OF EIBON and CEREMONIAL TORTURE to release split album via IRON BONEHEAD, reveal first tracks

Today, Iron Bonehead Productions announces December 9th as the international release date for Necronomical Mirror Divination, a special split album between Cult of Eibon and Ceremonial Torture, on CD and vinyl LP formats.

Black metal brewed among the ancient mists of time, Necronomical Mirror Divination is NOT for trendy ears. Cult of Eibon and Ceremonial Torture are both bands who adhere to black metal’s oldest unorthodox ways, days when unique sounds were celebrated so long as the essence – THE OCCULT – was strongly and passionately felt. Indeed both are felt in full adbance here on this seven-song/32-minute split album. 

Cult of Eibon have already made a considerable name for themselves in the underground with their virtuous reinvigoration of the classic Hellenic black metal paradigm. However, even within that “local color” existed more unorthodox means, and here on their four exclusive tracks do the duo strive for a more measured ‘n’ mystical sound compared to the throttling riff-hypnosis of their preceding work. Daubed in oft-dramatic synths, Cult of Eibon‘s already-considerable stature continues to grow.

Ceremonial Torture duly complement their split-mates with three exclusive tracks of their own. Already exceptionally prolific – and bewildering – during the past decade, mainman Goatprayer Doom Predictor here delivers an astoundingly swirling and sulfurous sound steeped in ’90s black metal’s most diverse names. From the bass-heavy overload of Necromantia to the comparably psychedelic dementia of Traumatic Voyage and early Sigh, Ceremonial Torture are unrivaled in nowadays “black metal.” 

Fittingly featuring awesome, era-authentic artwork courtesy of Panos Sounas, who did the classic cover art for Necromantia’s first two albums, Necronomical Mirror Divination is utterly essential listening for true witches, warlocks, necromancers, and deviants in general!

In the meantime, hear two brand-new tracks – Cult of Eibon‘s “The Burning Gates of Acheron” and Ceremonial Torture‘s “Summoning at the Gothic Graveside” here:

MAJESTIC MASS stream new HELTER SKELTER album

Today, evil metalrockers Majestic Mass stream the entirety of their highly anticipated second album, Destroys Minds and Rapes Souls here:

Set for international release on October 14th via Helter Skelter Productions (distributed & marketed by Regain Records) on CD and cassette tape formats – the vinyl LP version is slated for January 17th, 2023 – hear Majestic Mass‘ Destroys Minds and Rapes Souls in its entirety exclusively HERE.


Feel no fear nor woe
Embrace the final blow
See the crimson glow
Let lust and fire grow… 
One of the underground’s best-kept secrets, Majestic Mass made their public debut with the full-length Savage Empire of Death in 2018. Utterly obsessed with the rockin’ ‘n’ raucous noise these Danes so effortlessly created, Helter Skelter picked up the album for vinyl and cassette editions, and thereafter forged a blood pact with the band for an onslaught of releases, the first of which was the short ‘n’ sweet Onwards maxi-single in 2019.

But, as the world was choked with the plague, Majestic Mass merely laid in wait, plotting their next crimes. At long last, it has been revealed, a full-length bearing the all-too-apt title Destroys Minds and Rapes Souls. If that Onwards maxi-single consolidated the mysterious band’s undeniable charm into a taut, two-song fury of fun and filth, then the nearly half-hour Destroys Minds and Rapes Souls is the Bacchanalian revel you never want to stop…nor will ever recover from. Thankfully, no great changes have been made here – Majestic Mass magickally still sound like the bastard son of Barathrum and Death SS – but the “fun” of before is now all-caps FUN while the undercurrent of EVIL has become threatening, if not equally addicting. Those seemingly innocuous organs take on an air of the sleazy & sinister here, and are rightfully pushed to the fore, as the band’s stomp has subtly shifted away from doom toward way-ancient hard rock; in turn, the (hooded) vocalist’s annunciation is even clearer, imparting an even-stronger catchiness that’s nothing short of anthemic. Just feel that ENERGY coursing through you once “Covenant (Rapists of the Free Will)” kicks in!

Equally suited for Monsters of Rock-sized stadiums and cavernous, literally-underground clubs alike, Majestic Mass start a new era in their deranged universe with Destroys Minds and Rapes Souls. You already know if you’re ready – and if not, then it’s quite possible you’re already DEAD. “Lawless deviants and revenants in ecstasy – destroy what once was and fire at will!”

Preorder info can be found HERE at Regain Records‘ Bandcamp. Censored cover and tracklisting are as follows:

Tracklisting for Majestic Mass’ Destroys Minds & Rapes Souls
1. The First Coming
2. Covenant (Rapists Of The Free Will)
3. Reigning Lawlessness
4. I Am Your Earth
5. Lust & Fire
6. Apostles Of The Black Dawn

Stockholm monsters Encryptment premiere new track

Today, Stockholm monsters Encryptment premiere the new track “Liens praktfulla dans”. The track is the second to be revealed from the band’s highly anticipated debut album, Dödens födsel, set for international release on November 11th via Nuclear Winter Records. Hear Encryptment‘s “Liens praktfulla dans” in its entirety here:

Hailing from Stockholm, Sweden’s Encryptment formed in 2015 with the intention of writing music in absence of borders between death metal, black metal, and extreme styles of punk, all with lyrics written in their native tongue. This intention has remained intact, yet the call from the grave has only grown stronger…

Encryptment‘s debut EP, Suktar efter luft, was recorded and released in burning creative urgency at the beginning of June 2015, only a few months after the band’s formation. Some lineup changes followed, and the band’s next release didn’t happen until 2019, when the Mangel från söderort demo was released.

From there on, the mania, poison, darkness, and ferocity of the imminent Dödens födsel has been brewing steadily until it was realized in Necromorbus Studio together with the esteemed Tore Stjerna. Indeed maniacal and poisonous, utterly and equally dark and ferocious, Encryptment‘s first full-length statement is a fiercely focused juggernaut of dread frequencies. That they take so many shapes – some blackened, most deathened, all delivered with the hackle-raising urgency of the best hardcore-punk – matters not when trying to “define” Dödens födsel: the art, the ART OF DARKNESS, above all commands possession of both players and listener. With eight songs flying fast and free across a breathless 33 minutes, Encryptment‘s debut album offers deliverance to those who walk along those shadowed borders; the band’s vision and intent remain recognizable, but their attack here has been sharpened to a startling degree. Of course, Stjerna’s swarming production only makes those depths of darkness seem more infinite…

Stand at the brink and peer into the abyss. There, you will find one of the most devastating debuts of recent memory: Encryptment‘s Dödens födsel.

In the meantime, hear the previously revealed title track “Dödens födsel” HERE at Nuclear Winter‘s Bandcamp. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

Tracklisting for Encryptment’s Dödens födsel
1. Dödens födsel
2. Liens praktfulla dans
3. Silver Tongue
4. Central disharmoni
5. Existens i ambivalens

ABYSMAL LORD reveal first track from new HELLS HEADBANGERS album

Today, New Orleans barbarians Abysmal Lord reveal the new track “Antisemen of Ceremonial Pseudochrist.” The track is the first to be revealed from the band’s highly anticipated third album, Bestiary of Immortal Hunger, which will see release by year’s end via Hells Headbangers. Hear Abysmal Lord‘s “Antisemen of Ceremonial Pseudochrist” in its entirety here:

Since their grand emergence in 2014 with the Storms of Unholy Black Mass debut EP, New Orleans’ Abysmal Lord have vaulted to the forefront of the modern bestial metal scene. Red-eyed and rabid, their primeval surge swallows listeners whole with preternatural ease – or simply (black)grinds them down to dust. Under the auspices of HELLS HEADBANGERS, the band has gone from strength to strength with each new recording, each one a swift ‘n’ tactical strike on all that is holy and pure. Both 2015’s Disciples of the Inferno and 2019’s Exaltation of the Infernal Cabal have established Abysmal Lord as a none-more-formidable name in the metal underground, with their shock ‘n’ awe live prowess proving that such sonic bestiality is best witnessed in the flesh.

Since the release of 2020’s Cathedral EP, much has transpired in Abysmal Lord camp. A tumultuous period, drummer Barbaric Slayer exited the band to further pursue a spiritual journey deeper inward. Meanwhile, vocalist/guitarist Nocturnal Damnation and bassist/guitarist Guillotine committed themselves to continuing the path of no return. With no reasonable alternative, Abysmal Lord decided that, for their next full-length, Nocturnal Damnation will handle drumming duties (as was done on the aforementioned Storms of Unholy Black Mass). Maximum effort was expended to ensure that the brutality and chaos of Barbaric Slayer’s tradition was honored and continued.


And indeed it has, and then some, with the arrival of Bestiary of Immortal Hunger. On first glance, Abysmal Lord‘s third album retains all the red-eyed and rabid elements of yore – OTT explosion and forward propulsion in the grand tradition of Blasphemy, Black Witchery, and Proclamation and then malforming it into morbid, miasmic shapes – but peer deeper into this gurgling pit of despair & darkness and one will find surprising twists to their core sound. Foremost, perhaps, is the unhinged drumming of Nocturnal Damnation; foregoing sustained blasting, instead he draws influence from the fucked-up ‘n’ feral drumming of DD Crazy (during his early Sarcofago days as well as Sextrash) and Hadez’ Tonyn Destructor, especially on that band’s Guerroros de la Muerte demo. Unorthodox but undeniably effective, these more angular and askew rhythms form a (feral/fucked-up) foundation for Abysmal Lord‘s most CRAZED and chaotic songwriting to date. 

As such, while retaining their foundational elements, Abysmal Lord’s newest offering bears semblance to South America’s most infernal names: the aforementioned early days of Hadez, Sarcofago, and especially Sextrash but also Holocausto, Parabellum, and Reencarnacion. With an even more unsettling style of evil and total darkness, not to mention a plethora of mind-melted solos, Bestiary of Immortal Hunger also slots itself well alongside Mystifier’s pivotal first couple albums and early Beherit. Naturally, naysayers will still contend that this unholy racket is still “just” bestial metal or war metal or whatever – and for Abysmal Lord, that’s fine, as hailing and giving honor to a certain tradition in metal is part of the essence of this wider subculture. Those who know, know, and they will understand deeper, darker truths with this Bestiary of Immortal Hunger.


Release date, cover, and tracklisting for Bestiary of Immortal Hunger to be revealed shortly. For more info, consult the links below.

EMBRACE OF THORNS stream new NUCLEAR WINTER album

Today, Greek black/death titans Embrace of Thorns stream the entirety of their highly anticipated sixth album, Entropy Dynamics. Set for international release on October 10th via Nuclear Winter Records, hear Embrace of Thorns‘ Entropy Dynamics in its entirety here:

Emerging in the late ’90s from western Athens as Requiem, only to be soon renamed to the more apt Embrace of Thorns, the Greek Temple of Black Death has been championing Darkness Impenetrable for more than 20 years.
 
Having released five albums on labels such as Nuclear War Now! and Iron Bonehead plus an arsenal of demo tapes and split releases, Embrace of Thorns have been acknowledged as a force to be reckoned with. Their poison, a highly atmospheric and dense amalgam of death and black metal, has been gaining momentum since the release of their acclaimed sophomore album, Atonement Ritual, in 2009. Their third full-length, 2011’s Praying for Absolution, considered by many as their magnum opus, saw them fully embracing their potential and heralding knowledge through strife. Their latest full-length offering, 2018’s Scorn Aesthetics, was unanimously hailed and celebrated as arguably their ripest album, an idiosyncratic mix of somber, melodious, yet punishing Black Metal of Death that relies heavily on the organic mood of the performances and production. The new EP called The Pantheon I they unleashed in March continues exploring the pits of strife that is blackened metal of death, with music that is full of anguish, glorious darkness, and crushing dynamics.

Now aligned with longtime fans Nuclear Winter, Embrace of Thorns are set to release their sixth album, Entropy Dynamics. The band’s first full-length recording in four years, Entropy Dynamics indeed includes many/most of the dynamics of their preceding LPs – death metalled muscularity, pitch-blackened atmosphere, stellar songwriting, and powerful production – but it also points the way toward new, creepier territory. For sure, Embrace of Thorns‘ grounding in the early bestial sound can still be heard, but rendered with the world-eating totality of classic death metal, that surge takes on a different, far-more-frightening form. The quartet heighten that frightening aspect with a subtle-yet-no-less-noticeable emphasis on dynamics rather than just crushing their enemies straightaway; when the soundfield strips back to its barest bones and ringing-into-the-abyss clean guitars take center stage, the full force of Entropy Dynamics is felt. 

Always staying true to themselves whilst maturing in the most respectable manner, Embrace of Thorns continue their campaign of extreme metal destruction with Entropy Dynamics. To coincide with its release, celebratory reissues of their sold-out albums Atonement Ritual and Praying for Absolution will also be available again via Nuclear Winter, as well as a CD version of the preceding EP The Pantheon I, which will be supplemented with an exclusive bonus track.  

 Cover and tracklisting are as follows:
