Black Metal

Venusberg Cardinal’s Atlas of Dungeons was recorded winter 2010—the same sessions as Departure Chandelier’s Antichrist Rise to Power and was intended as a brother project exploring medieval and ancient tortures depicted across such paintings as The Garden of Earthly Delights and the doom of pre-Raphaelite Greek mythology in what the band describes as “antique black metal.” Originally set for release as a cassette album, this has been pulled from the archives of Occult Antiquities and presented to judged souls now under the banner of NWN! Productions. Musically in line with French black metal influences, Atlas of Dungeons pays special tribute and honors the perverse satanic cruelty, in particular of Cantus Bestiae. Despite using the same 4-track, drums, and guitars as Departure Chandelier in the now fabled Prisoner’s Chant studio, listeners will find a pure minimalist black metal atmosphere devoid of synth with long, hypnotic instrumental passages—until the alarming and eerie outro that features the previously unknown electronic/ambient peripheral of Departure Chandelier…Coronation Prédateur. Welcome, sinners, to the world of Occult Antiquities and antique black metal!

No need to present the musicians that composed LES LEGIONS NOIRES as they marked an entire generation in the 90s era with their obscure, raw and mysterious Black Metal music.

Released at the dawn of 2020 on CD format, Zmierzch Stalowej Ciemności was VERMISST’s first, fuller-length strike since their formation in 2018. Despite being a relatively new entity, the band’s sound is undoubtedly OLD, hailing the old gods of their Polish homeland’s rich black metal heritage. Cryogenically cold, unremittingly grim, shrouded in a mysticism rich in ancient splendor, VERMISST are thoroughly mid ’90s Polish black metal for a modern world too long neglectful of the Old Ways. Pure and proud, Zmierzch Stalowej Ciemności is poignant proof that classicism endures no matter the decade, and that ever-so-subtle twists on tradition can result in resoundingly “new” manifestations worthy of that noble lineage.

Now, courtesy of fans-from-the-beginning SIGNAL REX, VERMISST’s Zmierzch Stalowej Ciemności is being released on vinyl format for the first time ever, with three exclusive (and righteously raw) tracks expanding the release to 40 minutes in length.

Vintersorg’s classic second album remastered! One of the best Folk Metal ever made!

“Ödemarkens Son” (translates as “Son of the Wilderness”), the second full length from the Swedish band Vintersorg is unique Black/Folk Metal release. Generally speaking, this is not the ‘happy dancing’ Folk Metal like Korpiklaani, Finntroll or the likes, this is mournful. blackened Folk Metal, with very poetic and sorrowful lyrics, more on the side of old Ulver, but still is something very different from any released before.

Vintersorg’s classic album remastered! A real gem of epic Swedish Viking Metal!

As someone who listens to Metal albums on a daily basis, as well as being a Metal fan for well over 40 years, there are many great Metal albums out there. But sometimes an album comes along that changes how we look at Metal. We are not sure if that was Andreas “Vintersorg” Hedlund‘s intention when he wrote his debut full length, “Till Fjälls”, but that is exactly what this album did. His intention was to create a sound that was Black Metal based but also focusing more on clean vocals and adding more traditional Swedish folk elements to the that base. He inadvertently patented a new sound and sub-genre.

Death / Doom Metal

This album was released in 1994 and has become a rarity since then.

Although Visceral Evisceration probably didn’t have access to the same medical pathology textbooks Carcass did, the lyrical spirit is the same.

Primarily interested in dismemberment, cannibalism and more dismemberment, they can barely be distinguished from Regurgitate, Vomitory or the aforementioned Carcass in their early, glory days.

If one only reads the lyric sheet and not listens to the music, that is.
This is one of the oddest, most compelling and most hauntingly beautiful Metal recordings one will ever encounter.

Simply put, this is exquisite Doom Metal in the finest musical tradition of Paradise Lost, Winter and My Dying Bride.

Vlad Tepes depicts the epitome of Raw Black Metal and the legend of the Black Legions.

This demo was previously released officially on tape by Black Gangrene back in 2016 and now these special editions on vinyl and cd bring the ultimate consecration to a brilliant tribute to the most haunting manifestation of Black Metal.

For the first time since the long out-of-print box set disappeared into collectors’ hands, the discography of Vlad Tepes returns to vinyl in a special edition that underscores the band’s enduring cult status. Rooted in the shadowy legacy of the French Black Legions, Vlad Tepes remains a defining symbol of Black Metal’s most uncompromising spirit: raw, lo-fi, and deliberately obscure. This vinyl edition offers both longtime followers and new listeners a rare opportunity to engage with that legacy in its most authentic form, reaffirming why Vlad Tepes continues to stand as a benchmark of purity and defiance within the genre.
