Today, Iron Bonehead Productions sets June 7th as the international release date for Mutilate‘s highly anticipated second album, Contagium, on CD and vinyl LP formats.
Hailing from New York, Mutilate are literally a blast from the past. Sounding as if time stopped some 30 years ago, this quartet create crude ‘n’ rude black-cum-death metal that was only brewed in the darkest dungeons of the underground circa 1987. As such, they aesthetically nod to the likes of Death Strike, Helllhammer, Nunslaughter, and Goatlord (U.S.) as well as the torchbearers that came after those pioneers during the ’90s like Benediction, Acheron, Usurper, and Sathanas. It’s stripped-down and simple, and unapologetically so, and done with absolute belief and total authenticity. Trend-mongers couldn’t tolerate Tormentium, their debut album for Iron Bonehead last year, and yet the record won the support of those who do not entry to the false.
Now, striking while the iron’s red-hot, Mutilate return with the even stronger and more disgusting Contagium. Aptly titled, Contagium is a throbbing wellspring of pus and pestilence: crude ‘n’ rude DEATH METAL from an arcane age. Without almost effortless aplomb, Mutilate build upon the already-firm rudiments of Tormentium and simply add a darker, more crushing aspect as well as classically headbanging moments. And yet, for the even-more-overt heaviness here, Contagium also breathes a more haunting, otherworldly atmosphere – much like its cover art, as it were – perhaps best exemplified by the album’s closing title track. Dizzying and delirious, or simply downtuned and doomed to fuck: there’s no escaping this Contagium!

March 20, 2019 – Los Angeles, CA – The legendary Norwegian longstanding partnership of Fenriz and Ted “Nocturno Culto” Skjellum, return with their first studio album since 2016’s hugely popular ‘Arctic Thunder’, in the shape of ‘Old Star’. With a mastery and endless dedication to the art of the riff, the Norwegian legends cut through 6 new epic tracks, taking in the best of the old school of heavy & extreme metal plus a large dose of doom-laden riffing, & channelling it through the grime of the underground. Fenriz enthuses, “Old star – again we are here with THE RIFFS! A while after our previous ARCTIC THUNDER album it became apparent that we would continue in that same style, BLACK OLD HEAVY METAL with slow thrash, classic doom and slow death metal.”
As many have focused on the 70s sound over the last 20 years, the mix on our new album has ended up being more 80s than ever. The songs are more metal than ever! Ted’s songs have alot of black metal in them, faster and slower but also doomier parts and reocurring parts. My songs are more linear written, it’s an ancient 80s underground trick, with breaks, all slow heavy or slow thrash, classic doom or slow death.»
He continues, “All in all it is our most 80s album so far and our most metal one to date with drum sound typical for the 80s USA/German market and damned lyrics, which are all written by me. We feel that OLD STAR is the big brother of ARCTIC THUNDER. More solid and with even better riffs.”
Old Star was recorded at the band’s Necrohell 2 Studios, with engineering and production duties carried out by vocalist/guitarist Nocturno Culto, complemented with a perfectly organic mix courtesy of Sanford Parker (Voivod) at Hypercube Studios, & mastered once more by Jack Control at Enormous Door. The stellar cover artistry comes courtesy of Chadwick St John, titled “The Shepherd of the Deep”.
Over the course of 30 years, Norway’s Darkthrone has become a staple of the global black metal genre, forging a legacy as one of the most renowned and influential bands in its illustrious & often infamous history. In the formative years following their 1987 inception, Darkthrone initially started with a strong concoction of thrash & then death/doom metal experimentation, with broader musical influences spanning from the 60s to the 80s, before the debut album Soulside Journey was unleashed in 1991. Never ones to follow convention or stand still even then, the band soon embraced a much darker, more primitive form of expression with the now iconic second album A Blaze in the Northern Sky, & the rest became history.

The Dutch masters of horror are
back with their most flamboyant album so far. On ‘Dance and Laugh amongst the
Rotten’, CARACH ANGREN are painting musical pictures that
easily combine the grandiose depth of a Rembrandt with Van Gogh’s maelstrom of
whirling colours and the utter madness of Bosch. This lusciously seductive danse
macabre will drag you in and never let go.
CARACH ANGREN
have employed all the sonic colours on their palette to dazzling effect. Their
trademark whipping guitars are weaving harsh melodies and sinister soundscapes,
which are beautifully contrasted by opulent keyboards and majestic
orchestrations. That Till Lindemann (RAMMSTEIN) and Peter Tägtgren (PAIN) have
called upon the composition talent of Clemens “Ardek” Wijers is a telling sign
of his outstanding mastery of the craft. Another signatory counterpoint is
provided by Seregor’s fierce rasping and shrieking vocals. Adding to the impact,
Namtar has become a relentless driving force with his hard hitting yet intricate
drumming. Each track on this album is a highlight on its own, while combined
‘Dance and Laugh amongst the Rotten’ simply shines.
CARACH
ANGREN set out to tell ghost-stories with a set of paranormal cases
recorded on the demo ‘The Chase Vault Tragedy’ (2004). This was soon followed by
the official release of the ‘Ethereal Veiled Existence’ EP (2005) as a prelude
to the haunting ‘Lammendam’ (2008). The Dutch had a clear vision of combining a
dark baroque style of metal with horror based lyrical concepts. Their sophomore
full-length ‘Death Came through a Phantom Ship’ (2010) witnessed the band
setting sail to bring their eccentric and capturing live performances to
audiences and festivals all over Europe. In the wake of third album ‘Where the
Corpses Sink Forever’ (2012), the haunting had reached the Americas and started
to spread rapidly. This recorded added a serious side to the lyrics of
CARACH ANGREN. While firmly remaining in the horror genre,
their tales revolve around the evils of war. This mature streak was taken a step
further with the fourth full-length ‘This Is No Fairytale’, which is on the
surface a darker variation of the “Hansel and Gretel” story from the Brothers
Grimm collection, but also deals with the too real topic of child abuse in a
dysfunctional family.
With ‘Dance and Laugh amongst the Rotten’,
CARACH ANGREN are returning to “pure” storytelling with
episodes that are centered on a girl playing a little too long with her Ouija
board. The Dutch have pushed their unashamedly theatric style to a new intense
height. You do not believe us yet? Press play and unleash these radiant ghosts
into your home…

Today, Sepulchral Productions sets April 26th as the international release date for Ossuaire‘s highly anticipated debut album, Premiers Chants.
Having recently inked a record deal with Sepulchral Productions, Ossuaire emerges anew as the grandiose and impetuous first chapter of a concept spawning two albums and recounting the major events contributing to the downfall of Christianity and the rise of heresy resounds. Ossuaire delivers a resolutely unwholesome breed of black metal, both corrosive and melodic, bestowing upon this offering an aura that is as dark as it is authentic.
First track premiere to be revealed shortly. Preorder for the album can be found HERE. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

KAMPFAR – ‘OFIDIANDS MANIFEST’ TO BE RELEASED ON MAY 3RD
Los Angeles, CA – Approaching 25 years of existence and having grown to become one of extreme music’s premier live outfits, while releasing albums that would dominate year-end lists and even bagging a Norwegian “Spellemann” Grammy award for their ‘Profan’ album, Kampfar looked ready to go and dominate for years to come. But behind the music, disguised during the intense live shows, underneath it all, was a clarity that the road’s end was nigh.
Founded back in 1994 by Dolk, who recruited Thomas to take care of strings and keys while the former focused on drums and vocals, the band was an underground gem for years. A band whose first records are spoken of with reverence to this day, perhaps helped by the low profile they kept at the time. It was ten years before the first live show was performed, at this point bassist Jon and drummer Ask Ty had joined the ranks and this line-up released another three albums before Thomas departed the band, 2011’s ‘Mare’ the last release with his stamp so solidly placed on it.
This recording marked a shift in the style and expression of the band, becoming the leading star for the records to come, now with the new guitarist and songwriter Ole who quickly developed into a key force of the group. With the albums ‘Djevelmakt’ and ‘Profan’ Kampfar established a new era for Norwegian Black Metal, proving that while some may have lost their passion for the fiercest musical exploits, these men had a hunger that was as ravenous as ever.
Except that life has a knack for surprise. Health issues caused the band to slow down and during the summer of 2017 it was decided that there would be no more Kampfar, unless something radically changed. The guys didn’t see each other for a year, didn’t really speak or keep up any kind of contact, just focusing on their own personal lives. “It was time to just heal, to not cause any more damage, to just see if one could get back to a point of strength again” says Dolk. It was a year that culminated in ‘Ofidians Manifest’.
Though demos were written by Ole during the spring, shaped massively by him losing his father in the same period, the main song writing was done over the course of two months in the fall of 2018, with another month spent recording the album in Bergen, Oslo and Pärlby, Sweden. The band spent intense weeks together in their creative home of Hemsedal, moulding and shaping the songs, surrounded by mountains and forest that turned from summer green, to autumn yellow, to winter white as they worked extensively on what was to become this testament to the band themselves.
As part of the healing process of creating this collection of songs the decision was made to involve Agnete Kjølsrud on the track ‘Dominans’. Her contribution to the song lifted the atmosphere of the whole album, and the duet is one of perfect harmony between two very different yet familiar voices bonding to create an excellent song. Marianne Maria Moen’s contribution on album closer ‘Det Sorte’ similarly brings to light the realisation that all life is fragile and that our voices must be allowed to bellow through the world for as long as there is air left to bellow with.
The madness of Medusa was chosen as a visual clue to the record’s themes, represented by two different paintings to be explored on the physical releases. And again, the band decided to travel to Poland to record a music video, this time with director Dariusz Szermanowicz of Grupa 13. The video, hinting at the many underlying stories of the album, is a chaotic depiction of the road back to equilibrium, a place no one knows yet all walk towards. According to Ask Ty, the choice of song proclaiming the band’s return was made because “it tells you everything you need to know about Kampfar today, distilled down to four and a half minutes of intense breaks and turns, it is the beginning and the end and the new beginnings after that, and it is the sound of a band that is alive and well.”
‘Ofidians Manifest’ represents Kampfar anno 2019. 25 years on from their foundation, only willing to release new music if they felt it would surpass all they had done before, it is a condensation of the immense struggles of the last few years. Everything that has been hidden behind the music and the live performances is laid bare, though told in the only way the band can portray themselves, through songs. It is immensely honest yet wrapped in their own folklore, the snake tongues splitting every truth into two deeper truths, every word sung dominated by the weight of all those sung before.
To Ofidian.

Today, Harvest of Death sets April 20th as the international release date for Voëmmr‘s highly anticipated second album, O ovnh intot adr mordrb, on vinyl LP and cassette tape formats.
A so-far-shadowy entity, Voëmmr hail from the currently-hot Portuguese raw black metal scene. Specifically, the band is a part of the clandestine Aldebaran Circle, which includes Ordem Satânica, Trono Além Morte, and Occelenbriig. Like those contemporaries, Voëmmr eschew any sort of social-media presence – or any internet presence at all, for that matter – preferring instead to work on their bewitching black metal conjurations far away from any sort of ego-enhancing public awareness; their means and methods are, rather, rooted in the ancient ways of the ’90s, like their massively prolific (and massively fuck-off) forebears in the French Black Legions.
Continuing the compelling uncomfort of their Sombr Moebrd demo from 2018, this inscrutable and stratifying cult continue their assured, almost effortless plunge into the abyss with a brand-new 44-minute recording. If Voëmmr‘s alternately celebrated/feared debut album, 2017’s Nox Maledictvs, was the sound of the cult crawling through the shadows for the first time – and in the process, locating shimmeringly ugly magickal frequencies, sick and rotten and malnourished yet somehow strangely beautiful in their malodorous malaise – then O ovnh intot adr mordrb sounds like that cult striding boldly beyond the shadows. That signature sound, as lasciviously laid out on Nox Maledictvs, is here more urgent, more manic, more hysteric, the ritualism of yore reigned into an altogether more focused maw of desolation and dread: pounding, persistent, passionate. As ever, their usage of unnervingly insistent organ has developed into a perversely beautiful/eerie counterpoint to the ripped-raw black metal beneath – as above, so below – thus making Voëmmr‘s iteration of black metal all the more idiosyncratic. Furthering that idiosyncrasy is their continued usage of the strange, cryptic dialect created by legendary French forebears Belketre.
Enigmas either die or grow stronger. With O ovnh intot adr mordrb do Voëmmr prove the latter. The first show of strength can be found with the new track “Carpatr Tzaeb” here:

Today, atmospheric black metal elite Ellende premiere the new track “Der Blick wird leer”. The track hails from the band’s highly anticipated third album, Lebensnehmer, set for international release on March 29th via AOP Records. The album will be released on CD, vinyl LP, and boxset formats, with both the vinyl and boxset editions featuring an exclusive bonus track. Hear Ellende’s “Der Blick wird leer” in its entirety HERE.
Founded in 2011 by multi-instrumentalist L.G., Ellende has always strived for the melancholy, anger, and beauty that is buried in our mere existence and misanthropy. Deeply rooted in black metal, the project didn’t fear wisely selected instrumentation in order to achieve a unique atmosphere and songwriting style. This mainly includes strings, brass, and other classical instruments, as well as L.G. doing most of the studio work and all artwork and design himself. After the independent release of Rückzug in die Innerlichkeit by L.G. in 2012, Ellende became a live band with session musicians and three releases, and some successful European tours followed.
The attention for Ellende peaked with their second album, Todbringer, in 2017, which was hailed as one of the most outstanding atmospheric/post-black metal albums of the year by many critics and audiences, hitting nearly a half-million views on YouTube in a few months and successively selling out its initial physical pressing.
Patiently taking two years to perfect the songwriting, Ellende’s third full-length (and fifth release overall),
Lebensnehmer is now finished. Featuring live musician P.F. on drums like on previous records, Lebensnehmer vividly displays all the sturm und drang of the trademark Ellende sound, now more breathtaking than ever. Taking a more adventurous approach to dynamics as well as exhibiting a clarity of focus previously untouched, Lebensnehmer moves like a literal emotional rollercoaster – hitting the highest of highs, and especially the lowest of lows – spellbinding the listener at every skyscraping turn. As ever, the stirring melodicism of L.G. takes center stage, weaving emotive ecstasy even while a torrent of blastbeats from P.F. booms all around here. Elsewhere, suitably splendorous atmosphere is evoked through frequent stretched-out instrumental passages, allowing both drama and tension to wage war within the listener’s heart and head. And of course, only the most sterling production standards were sought by L.G, with recording & mixing at Audioriotrecordings Austria and mastering by Iguana Studios Germany.
As the mainman enthuses, “I am truly grateful how this record turned out. As the title already implies, Lebensnehmer – or ‘life taker,’ in English – has a very strong connotation coming about two years after its sister album Todbringer, which is ‘death bringer’ in English. Going through rough times, it fills me with a sense of well-being when another selection of music has been made into a full-length result of anger, melancholy, and beauty. Being surrounded by very gifted musicians and sound engineers, you can expect another milestone from Ellende.”
No truer words spoken. Ellende’s atmospheric black metal dominance continues with Lebensnehmer! The album’s release will be promptly followed by a five-date tour featuring AOP Records labelmates Firtan, Spiral Skies, and
Groza (dates after the jump).

Today, fast-rising Swedish black metal cult Malakhim stream the entirety of their highly anticipated new mini-album, II. Set for international release on March 8th via Iron Bonehead Productions, hear Malakhim’s II in its entirety HERE:
One of the most electric newcomers Iron Bonehead has come across in recent years, Malakhim originally self-released their debut recording, Demo I, on cassette during the autumn of 2017, and it sold out within a day. Not surprising, that, if you listen to the three songs comprising their opening salvo: patiently unfolding vortexes of orthodox black metal with more than a bit of death metalled muscle, all in obeisance to the powers of The Beyond, and coalescing into a fever-dreaming fury of hellish hysteria. Iron Bonehead released Demo I on CD at the beginning of 2018 and then on 12″ vinyl five months later, such was the demand.
Now, Malakhim continue that upward/abyss-ward trajectory with their second recording, a four-song/21-minute mini-album fittingly titled II. Taking all the same rudiments of their debut recording and fleshing them out in bolder, more Beyond-pushing shapes, II takes the listener deep into a slipstreaming black (w)hole of malignant majesty. Simultaneously timeless and modern, Malakhim here breathe a confidence that’s blanching to behold, exhibiting a dexterity of songcraft and poise of execution that takes most other bands years to achieve, if ever. That should be no surprise, given the wealth of experience within the ranks of the band; names could be dropped, but all five members believe – quite rightly – that Malakhim should stand on its own merits. And with II, that claim is more justified than ever.
Yet another foretaste of the ominous doom and dread ahead, with II do Malakhim tease what their imminent debut album for Iron Bonehead will manifest…beware, and bow down now! Bow fully before II exclusively HERE:

Today, black metal mystics Ringarë stream the entirety of their highly anticipated debut album, Under Pale Moon. Set for international release on March 8th via Iron Bonehead Productions, hear Ringarë’s Under Pale Moon in its entirety HERE:
Originally going by the moniker Ringar, Ringarë was forged in early winter anno MMIV as pure worship of synth-ridden black metal of the early ’90s. Hours of material was composed and recorded, including a debut full-length that later would be torn apart for Chaos Moon’s Languor into Echoes, Beyond while the remainder of the never-released Ringarë debut slept in shadow for nearly 14 years. Early 2018 saw the rediscovery of these missing pieces, now with refined vision and execution.
Indeed, true to mainman Esoterica’s word, Ringarë’s Under Pale Moon is a refined and exceptionally executed slice of synth-drenched black metal classicism. Under the moon in the Scorpio does this second-wave mysticism lay, beholding the sad realm of the stars while waiting entree into a grand psychotic castle. But, for however ’90s-entrenched Ringarë’s ruminations may be, there’s a keenly nuanced and, above all, wholly authentic aura to this mysticism that ably adds to black metal’s rich ancient language rather than merely paying lip service to it. Its four songs drown the listener in an impossibly foggy, deliriously velveteen experience that renders the 40-minute journey one that’s paradoxically longer, so engaging and bewitching is its moonlit magick.
The past is forever alive, and the journey with Ringarë begins Under Pale Moon. Experience that journey in its entirety HERE:
