Moongate (USA) – Over Thick Ice LP €32.88
Black Metal
Consisting of the entirety of this band’s output to present this two track demo is a scathing opening manifesto in metal ferocity. Each track sprawls itself out into movements that span various metal styles seamlessly. Without feeling like separate tracks the opening tracks “Seeking Our Monolith in the Night” defies tempo and characteristic limitations while creating a luminous meditative twenty minute opus. As if that wasn’t quite enough “At Last, the Moongate” closes the release by exploring these auditory realms even further and brings in other elements to round out the release in an even further hypnotic fashion. Enveloping, engaging, and slightly terrifying.
This mysterious band released this album originally on tape in 2018 and have remained silence since. They’ve been likened to Sanguine Eagle and Paysage d’Hiver, though such statements don’t do this justice. Avoid to your own detriment.
Edition of 150 on black vinyl

Pagan Winter (DEU) – In The Shadowlands / Night Of Chaos Demo ’97 BLUE LP €34.88
Black Metal
A cold, vicious, and rapid blast of true nineties black metal savagery. The vocals are coarse and corroded, delivered as a malevolent stream of aural violence. The music is quintessential second wave black metal delivered with precision yet reckless abandon creating an inescapable wave of hate. Pagan Winter embodies everything that makes black metal appealing and appalling. These demos are archetypal, this band infallible.
Including the one of the masterminds behind the brilliant Birkabein, Old Pagan (Machosias), this release from Saarland collects insane demos from the band’s mid to late nineties output. These demos have surely helped shape some of your favorite contemporary bands, you’d do well to heed this notice and get this before it’s too late.

กาฬพราย (TH) – ธรณีหงชาด LP €32.88
Black Metal
Arriving in 2020, amid the height of the pandemic, กาฬพราย (pronounced kan-prai) hails from the recent hotbed of raw black metal depravity, Thailand. Little is known about the mysterious entity behind this project, however the relentless torrent of fast paced, shredding, shrill, unrestrained black metal, punctuated by melancholic respites speaks volumes. A barrage of immense brutality with vocals that hiss and stab through the layers of spiteful sound, this demo announced กาฬพราย emphatically.
Released now for the first time on LP format this demo is only the beginning, but a venomous genesis it is for this one-man (พินาศสุราลัย) raw black metal force.
