With creative fires ever glaringly blazing and totally devoted to his craft, Shamaatae would be able to unleash Kampen only one year after the previous album spread pestilence and plague. The third and at the same time last installment of the band’s first era also ranks as the longest ARCKANUM album up to this day. Although recorded in the same studio as its predecessor and generally continuing the trajectory of Fran marder and Kostogher, Kampen is arguably the finest hour (or rather 73 minutes) of ARCKANUM’s first era. It not only contains some of the most refined compositions Shaamatae has come up with at this point but compared to the other two albums sports the best sound too. On a record rife with highlights, it’s difficult to pick particular tracks but the majestically melancholic “Pa gruvstiigher vandrum” complete with conjuring female chanting and the rather straight forward almost punkish “Trulfylket, raþz ok os” well represent the diversity of Kampen.

Remastered for vinyl from the original recordings by Patrick W. Engel of Temple of Disharmony.

Including a huge 20-page 12” booklet with an in-depth interview (divided into 4 parts, this is part 4) with Shamaatae and many never seen before pictures.
An A2 poster will be added to every vinyl too.

Two years after Fran marder’s release, the second ARCKANUM album Kostogher was set free to plague the feeble world. The ARCKANUM trademarks as edified on Trulen and Fran marder are kept intact while at the same time new ingredients are mingled. Whereas Fran marder had a rather clean sound, Kostogher’s production comes with a lot of stink and filth. The harsh sound of Kostogher which convincingly marries the rawness of Trulen with a vigorous studio production turns the second full-length into a savage and quite possibly the most primal sounding ARCKANUM album. Compared to Fran marder, Kostogher comes across way dirtier, meaner and all around crazier. The whole album has a bold FUCK OFF written all over it.

Black Metal

Having grown out of the Norwegian Death Metal band MORTEM, ARCTURUS emerged under the irresistible influence of Oslo’s creatively bursting and fast rising underground black metal scene officially with the two-track 7″ “My Angel” (1991). With then-guitarist and formidable keyboard player Sverd and MAYHEM drum-beast Hellhammer at its core, vocals were first contributed by Marius Vold, who also sang on the legendary THORNS demo “The Thule Tape”. While still very much influenced by death metal, the addition of doom-laden slowness and eerie keyboards already pointed into a far blacker cosmos. On the four tracks of the original 1994 “Constellation” EP, ULVER’s Garm had taken over the vocal duties and Samoth from EMPEROR had joined the band on guitar. Yet, ARCTURUS already went off the (in reality quite wide-ranged) black metal norms mainly due to Sverd’s keyboard arrangements that were pre-shadowing the trademark theatrical or circus-like style the Norwegians adopted on their following albums.

Conceived between immensity and eternity, echoing from the edge of forever and stirring the dust of ages comes ‘By the Light of Their Destruction,’ the fourth original full-length album by Ares Kingdom.

This is a debut coming from the Catalan duo ARNA, and a powerful first release as well.

Coming in strong with its modern day and quality production, yet still keeping a raw and unfiltered sound.

Impressive and atmospheric guitar riffs along side dark and beautiful lyrics that tell wicked tales.

Black Metal

Calamites & les Calamités is the first full-length of Ascète. Through a rusty black metal, joyfully old, Ascète gives its vision of a forgotten and forlorn countryside, where the small poor people of campains slowly die in the indifference of big cities administrations. Melodic Black metal with punk/oï influences, Calamites & les Calamités haunts us in ridiculously difform Perigord legends, carried by the decadent proclamations howled in an almost ruined, out of age barn… (vocals were actually recorded there).

The magnificent work on guitars and sound will carry you in a forgotten countryside, where an aging population, almost feral and animal-looking, discretly and suspiciously wanders in its misery. Among the remains of minor historical landmark monuments, which returns to Earth, too. Slower, maybe, but in the same definitive manner.

Limited to 150 handnumbered. With lyrics insert.
