Black Metal

LIMBONIC ART are back! Their ninth full-length “Opus Daemoniacal” is black as a raven, fierce as a wolf, majestic as an eagle, and mighty as the legendary Norwegian black metal pioneers that mastermind, vocalist, and multi-instrumentalist Vidar “Daemon” Jensen founded in 1993 have always been. “Opus Daemoniacal” continues along the more straightforward black metal path that the Norwegian has chosen for his last releases yet this album also deliberately harks back to the dense atmospheric and cinematic feel of LIMBONIC ART’s groundbreaking early works. After having turned into a duo, the debut album “Moon in the Scorpio” was released in 1996 via Nocturnal Art Productions – the label of EMPEROR guitarist Samoth aka Tomas Thormodsæter Haugen

Seeping with an ominous grandiosity, the sole Lord Kaos album “Thorns of Impurity” is truly a forgotten relic in the pantheon of 90s symphonic black metal. Behind the morose keyboards and rigor mortis burdened drumming lies the key to Lord Kaos’ sound – guitarist Jamie “Astennu” Stinson. Before the release of “Thorns of Impurity”, Astennu migrated to Norway, through his connection to Slayer Mag’s Metalion, in order to record his solo project Carpe Tenebrum at the legendary Creative Studios. While in Norway he would join Dimmu Borgir and Covenant in the midst of a very successful era in both bands’ respective careers. Though the records he would record for those acts and his solo project have garnered fans worldwide, “Thorns of Impurity” has remained an underground classic. Astennu’s razor sharp riffing, alongside the superb musicianship of fellow bandmates Incubus and Lord of Night Summoning added a new dimension to the cosmos of Australian black metal. Though Australia isn’t known for its frost bitten mountaintops, the unforgivingly ice cold atmosphere of this album is a testament to the imperishable vision of Lord Kaos. The time has finally come to enter the Hall of Shadows!

Steeped in the enigmatic mysticism of the wilderness, Altars Of The Precipice Possession relishes in sonic shadow and ignoble insanity; one that is enshrouded by an orthodox black metal expression of nightmarish tremolo melodics, rasping vocal croaks, nuanced spell composition, eclectic percussive pummelings, phantasmal hinterland thematics, and a balanced dissonant production. Those acolytes who savour the flavours of nature’s potent prophecies and ancient effigies of true black metal expression will find their unholy thirst satiated by Lore’s powerful debut incantation, their barbed tongues stained black for an eternity, as the possessive shades of solemn altars call upon those wisps seized by the eternal cosmos.

Death /Black Metal

Formed in Michigan during the late 80s, Lucifer’s Hammer was a prominent fixture in the Midwest underground, playing numerous regional gigs and routinely featured in the lineup of at Michigan Death-fest. The earliest incarnation of the band was more thrash-oriented, but as the band evolved, it gravitated toward a darker black/death metal sound. By the mid 1990s, Lucifer’s Hammer was part of a circle that included such bands as Summon, Masochist, and Wind of the Black Mountains, all of which at some point shared members with Lucifer’s Hammer. It proved to be among the most fertile scenes of early USBM around that time. Although Lucifer’s Hammer released two earlier demos, it was with their 1994 self-released tape, “The Burning Church,” that the band left its most enduring mark. Lucifer’s Hammer was among the first American bands to play death metal suffused with the atmospheric darkness and savage ferocity associated with the then-emerging black metal movement. On “The Burning Church,” the band plays relentless blackened death steeped in a miasma of blasphemy. Indeed, this demo is among the darkest death metal recordings of its time. Lucifer’s Hammer should be mentioned alongside bands like Profanatica, Demoncy, and Absu.
