2 Wolves (FIN) – Not Worth It CD €16.88
Black Metal
Formed in 2011 in WEREWOLF’s home of Lappeenranta, 2 WOLVES are one of Finnish metal’s best-kept secrets. Through the prolific Inverse Records, the band have released four full-lengths since their year of formation, finessing a classics-minded gothic doom-death sound. With no hint of irony, 2 WOLVES evoke a rich nostalgia for the ’90s, which is a major reason why WEREWOLF surprisingly have made a blood pact with the band for the release of their fifth album (and first in five years), Not Worth It.

Azazel (FIN) – Jesus Perversions LP €24.88
Black Metal
Formed in that fateful year of 1992, AZAZEL are among the first black metal bands to hail from Finland – and undoubtedly, one of the most cult. The band released a demo in 1993 and a mini-album in ’96, but then receded into the shadows and misery for many years.

Azazel (FIN) – Witches Deny Holy Trinity LP €24.88
Black Metal
Compared to that record’s ramshackle run through filth, fury, and most things bestial, Witches Deny Holy Trinity portrayed a more haunting and daresay “accomplished” version of AZAZEL. And the transition proved fortuitous, as the Finns continued to fine-tune their ancient vision of black metal and, if anything, delivered an album that’s as classically 1990s as anything around.

Burning Winds (USA) – Hell And Damnation CD €16.88
Black Metal
For those who’ve lurked within the black metal underground since the late ’90s, the name BURNING WINDS should carry the cultest cachet. Formed in 1997, the band is the sole creative province of one NecroDan, hailing from the American wasteland of Michigan, which unbirthed such foul entities as Masochist, SUMMON, and Wind of the Black Mountains. BURNING WINDS are very much of this sonic lineage, defiantly utilizing the ugliest, most primitive black metal in the most unorthodox of ways. For many, the band first came to attention / infamy via Paul Ledney’s extremely short-lived Necroscope label and the seemingly full-length The Flame of Lucifer – here, also underlining the aesthetic links to PROFANATICA and especially HAVOHEJ – but “seemingly” in the sense that that recording was album length and yet otherwise considered an EP; the same could be said for 2005’s classic Cease to Exist compilation. As the decades slogged on, NecroDan would intermittently emerge with a new / “new” recording, always in the most underground manner and with absolutely zero fanfare, preferring the private and autodidactic over any sort of cultivated “mystery” or scene involvement.

Chamber of Unlight (FIN) – Realm of the Night GREEN LP €28.88
Black Metal
CHAMBER OF UNLIGHT began as the solo work of multi-instrumentalist Necrosis.

Joined by drummer Kassara – himself an equally prolific Finnish veteran whose credits likewise include Deathchain and Trollheims Grott but also Horna, Bythos, Forgotten Horror, Striges, and Black Death Ritual among others – CHAMBER OF UNLIGHT released their self-titled debut demo in 2017. Immediately, the eldritch essence of ’90s Finnish black metal was felt, and the storm was only brewing…

Druadan Forest (FIN) – Dismal Spells Part II: The Night Circus CD €16.88
Black Metal
rom their demos in the late ’90s to the fever of work from 2016 onward, this Finnish entity has created a vast and magickal world like no other. Naturally, it should come as no surprise given that mainman V-Khaoz is an incredibly prolific veteran of the black metal underground for over 25 years now, and concurrently numbers the likes of VARGRAV, EMBRYONIC SLUMBER, and GRIEVE among his endeavors. With DRUADAN FOREST, however, the emphasis has always been on atmosphere and its transportative qualities. Whether the medium is ominous, titanic-gait black metal, cosmic ambient, pure dungeon synth, or some symbiosis of those, it matters not: the story – and the voyage – from this realm to another is paramount.

Druadan Forest (FIN) / Old Sorcery (FIN) – Split CD (RED VERSION) €15.88
Dungeon Synth
Featuring two stalwarts of the dungeon synth genre, this split also brings together Finland’s foremost purveyors of the resurgent style. DRUADAN FOREST, of course, should require little introduction for those who follow the banner of WEREWOLF RECORDS: in 2019 did mainman V-Khaoz (also of labelmates VARGRAV and GRIEVE) release the staggering atmospheric black metal monolith Dismal Spells From the Dragonrealm, and shared an all-dungeon-synth split album with THE TRUE WERWOLF in 2108. Here, DRUADAN FOREST deliver two epic-length tracks of the purest, most fantastical dungeon synth. Unlike so many two-note/one-loop charlatans, V-Khaoz’ dungeon synth creations are symphonies unto themselves, neither understated nor overstated, with fugue-like compositions revealing a wealth of adventure and mystery equally.

Embryonic Slumber (FIN) – In Worship our Blood is Buried DIGI-CD €16.88
Black Metal
Hailing from Finland, while EMBRYONIC SLUMBER may be a brand-new entity in name, the duo are longtime veterans of the underground: VARGRAV / DRUADAN FOREST mainman V-Khaoz and Hellwind Inferion, an incredibly prolific drummer but more recently known as the vocalist for both Sargeist and Desolate Shrine. And while what they create together as EMBRYONIC SLUMBER may show slight shades of their collective pasts, the resulting recording – the full-length In Worship Our Blood is Buried, the band’s bolt-from-the-blue debut – handily transcends comparisons altogether.

Faustian Pact (FIN) – Outojen Tornien Varjoissa CD €13.88
Black Metal
Titled Outojen Tornien Varjoissa, FAUSTIAN PACT’s full-length debut is the grand culmination of all the gloriously bewitching work they brewed across that trio of demos. Exploding with an effervescence that’s addicting and undeniable, their swords-aloft attack surges and swells, crests and cascades. At the forefront are stained-glass synths whisked from a time – and a fantastical landscape – far, FAR away, sumptuously underlining their heroic/romantic style of black metal deeply steeped in a nostalgic past. Across the album’s 41 minute (fantastical) landscape are spread lyrics of splendorous mythology, swords & sorcery, vast forgotten realms brought to life through wily, wanderlusting black metal betraying a noble melodicism. FAUSTIAN PACT are thus a unique balance of contrasts: orkish energy vs. mystical atmosphere, dungeon rawness vs. castle-top aristocracy, obsidian darkness vs. gleaming light. So, whether 25 years ago or 2500, removed by a reality or two, Outojen Tornien Varjoissa is timeless BLACK METAL MAGICK – dark medieval times have at last arrived!

Förgjord (FIN) – Ruumissaarna pt.1 CD €15.88
Black Metal
“Ruumissaarna Pt. 1 is about the darker side of Finnish man’s nature,” explains founding guitarist/bassist Valgrinder. “It tries to find and understand the reasons which make ordinary man a beast, a killer, when opportunity and circumstances are right – when things move in a certain direction slowly but surely, until it reaches the point where there’s no turning back anymore. It’s about our inner demon – The Perkele – who is living inside us and just waiting to get the opportunity to take over. And of course, it’s also about those innocent ones who have to take the consequences. Ruumissaarna isn’t fantasy nor fiction; it’s the everyday darkness we want to deny. It’s the darker side of Finnish culture and our nature.”
