Ceremonial Castings (USA) – Salem 1692 (MMXX) GOLD DLP €32.88
Black Metal
Formed in that fateful year of 1996, CEREMONIAL CASTINGS were a band of the times, a band later behind the times, and now a band ahead of the times once again. Many will belatedly be aware of the name CEREMONIAL CASTINGS due to the membership of future UADA founder Jake Superchi, alongside his brother Nick Superchi, who were later (and once again now) joined by drummer Matt Mattern. The band crafted a canon of symphonic black metal that was admirably ambitious and often brilliant but all too often overlooked. Until their eventual demise in 2014, CEREMONIAL CASTINGS created nine full-lengths and just as many demos/Eps that were all released on their own label. Their album covers were often graced with artwork courtesy of the masterful Kris Verwimp, who also created the band’s logo.

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. The man stands as a prolific veteran of Finland’s esteemed extreme metal landscape; during the past 20 years, his credits include Deathchain, Ajattara, Shade Empire, and Trollheims Grott. 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…

Chauves Pourris (FRA) – Vaterland BLUE LP €28.88
RAC / Oi!
CHAUVES POURRIS was a French skinhead band that was active from 1986 to 1993 and shone during this time alongside other combos from the country of the Gauls such as Legion 88, Bunker 84, Brutal Combat and Evil Skins. In 1992, their last album, the LP “Vaterland”, was released on Herbert Egoldt’s Brühl label Rock-O-Rama Records. This work also relied on the tried and tested mix of powerful Oi!/Punk and socially critical themes, with the title conveying a strong political undertone. “Fatherland” reflected the increasing frustration and social tensions of the time when the songs on this record were created.

Christian Cosentino (AUS) – High Rising Times LP €25.88
Black Metal
Christian Cosentino’s highly acclaimed second album is finally available on vinyl. Melodic and symphonic black metal with a heavy load of progressive elements, taking it another step further than his previous ‘Lawn’ album. Better yet, this new album builds further on the foundations made on ‘Lawn’ with a ton of layers, clean and shrieking vocals and a session drummer that goes up to 300 bpm. Impressive, to say the least.

Christian Cosentino (AUS) / Winterquilt (UK) – Portals to Perdition LP €25.88
Black Metal
A mighty split between these two juggernauts! Both acts bring their absolute A-game here. Australia’s Christian Cosentino brings us the most glorious blend of his signature blackened orchestral metal in technicolour. U.K.’s own Winterquilt is putting forward some of the most brutal, insane yet “danceable” digitised grindcore chaos. Enough to make your hairs split as no stone is left unturned on this boundary-breaking release.

Cintecele Diavolui (NOR) – The Devil’s Songs Part II: One Soul Less For The Devil LP €25.88
Dungeon Synth
The songs on this album have, up til this point, only been available on the long sold out extended CD versions of “The Devil´s Songs” that were put out by Dark Dungeon Music and Cold Meat Industry, respectively. The song “The Devil Must Kill” has only ever been available on the Cold Meat Industry compilation CD “Absolute Supper”.
These songs were all recorded not too long after the initial 5 songs (Part 1: Dance of The Dead) that originally appeared on the 10″ EP “The Devil´s Songs” in 1997. By their very nature, these songs are a lot more experimental, and rely heavily on atmospherics, with the exception of “The Devil Must Kill”, which was recorded a bit later, on it´s own, and is a bit of a return to the original “The Devil´s Songs” sounds, albeit the only song with sung vocals Cintecele Diavolui ever did.

Circle of Ouroborus (FIN) – Ajattoman Uni LP €28.88
Black Metal
Ajattoman uni is a sidestep, but it is also some sort of return to our roots.
After more unified and well-thought albums, we wanted to follow our instincts almost blindly, and so we found ourselves among these short bursts of riffs and melodies. There is one part of Celtic Frost and another part of dark rock; sometimes blasting with hate, sometimes drowning in echoes and ethereal atmosphere; songs that you would want to last for a little longer, but everything has been said and done in seconds.

Circle of Ouroborus (FIN) – Autuala LP €26.88
Black Metal
Impervious to any form of classification, Circle of Ouroborus generate an amalgamation of styles that is utterly their own creation.
Riffs are emotive while burrowing deep within the recesses of the mind, imparting themselves into the subconscious.
The vocals sit in a purgatory of tortured spoken singing, heavy with reverberation echoing across the instrumentation.
Each track effortlessly drifts into indiscriminate soundscapes with curiosities hidden throughout, providing the listener a different experience upon each visit. Another stellar entry into their ever evolving discography that should not be missed.In stock

Circle of Ouroborus (FIN) – Lumi Vaientaa Kysymykset LP €28.88
Black Metal
Their 2023 latest album on LP.
With “Lumi Vaientaa Kysymykse” we can see still some elements of recent CoO albums, with a lot of soothing, shoegazing melodies passing through, however the pace is rather toned down into a more dragging and Doomy pace, often reminiscing with Katatonia, both in tempo as melody wise, and with an approach more akin to records like “Kuuhun Kahlittu” and some part which are particularly metallic and acrid, such as the beginning of the second track, almost closer to Atvar’s work under Kêres. The Post-Punk basslines however are still always there creating their own shamanistic, hypnotic sound, as well as the feverish experimentalism characteristc of 70s and 80s Psych and Folk rock and adjacent much present in the keyboards and daring, outsider guitarwork, particularly in “Lankeemus”.
