Black Metal

This album is a retrospective look into the past, where old forlorn ruins and obscurity reign over desolate landscapes. Gazing back also into my own past, I have re-recorded a song originally included on the demo tape of my old band Helcaraxe, composed back in 2003. Delve deep in and listen… listen to the atmospheres of an arcane night and return within your thoughts into bygone times…

Live demo recorded at a private gig in the autumn of 2013 during the band’s earlier days. The songs are thereby reduced to a more primal, barbaric form.

Extra material is provided by a cover of Carpathian Forest’s 90s classic “When Thousand Moons Have Circled” and a special ambient composition “Cosmic Rituals” that delves into the darker, more introspective aspects of Krolok.

Re-issue, 300x magenta 12″ (140g) in a black poly-lined innersleeve, download card, gatefold full-color on 350g, coated paper (semi-gloss), all assembled in a plastic overbag.

For over 25 years now, MELECHESH have been crafting a singular sound that encompasses black metal, death metal, and most uniquely, Middle Eastern folk music. That they were Israel’s most known black metal export is only part of the MELECHESH story, for that story would mean nothing if there weren’t classic albums to back it up. Of them, the band’s three-album run on OSMOSE in the early/mid 2000s – Djinn, Sphynx, and Emissaries – is widely considered to be the band’s best work.

Since their formation in 2007, MINENWERFER have pursued a proud ‘n’ pure vision of black metal idiosyncratically focused on World War I – idiosyncratic, in the sense that the band hail from America but mostly sing in German. What has resulted is a startlingly accomplished canon that has quietly built itself into prolific proportions, with their first album arriving in 2010, followed by albums in 2012 and 2019, and a slew of split releases and EPs in the interim.

Of those many short-length releases, Der Rote Kampfflieger is the oldest and perhaps most curious. Here, MINENWERFER offered the new track “Ace of Aces,” the reworked “Albatros in Flammen,” and two very surprising covers: deep martial industrial artist Striider’s “Schüzengraben” and legendary shredder Yngwie J. Malmsteen’s early scorcher “I am a Viking.” MINENWERFER for sure have their own identifiable sound.
