Abigor (AUT) – Nachthymnen (From The Twilight Kingdom) LP
€38.88
Black Metal
In its original CD form, this has been ABIGOR´s most celebrated and best sold album, together with CRADLE OF FILTH´s debut heralding the start of Gothic Black Metal. Yet in stark contrast to the commercial traits, behind the well-implemented female vocals and tasteful keyboard additions lurks a backbone of Satanic Black Metal in its most radical form – by that, being a true product of the underground’s peak moment, when Black Metal reared its most ugly head in 1995.
In this regard, Nachthymnen is an almost solitary case, written by the reckless Austrian triumvirate at the age of 19 and 20, uniting beauty and wickedness, melancholic longing and an apocalyptic death drive. The most majestic album in the band’s history, capturing the essence of the fully blossoming 90s Black Metal scene at its turning point – the freedom and extremism of a scene which fell victim to a crisis of disorientation and mainstream corruption soon after. Nachthymnen may be one of the albums to blame for that, but remains fully innocent in its intention and execution. 9 hymns to the night, to demonic magic and the twilight kingdom.
This LP version in a glossy gatefold-sleeve for the first time delivers 1995 Hörnix sound perfectly transferred to vinyl, featuring a bonus CD with 1994/95 instrumental demo-rehearsals including early alternative versions, an extensive 32 page booklet, a poster and a brand-new master as download card as well.
NOTE: This item is a pre-order item with an intended release date of November 5, 2025.

An establishment of new sounds, and an extension of familiar sounds, “Vermillion Apparitions Frozen in Chimera Twilight” is VAMPIRSKA at it’s strongest and most enchanting. Six tracks that stylistically expand on what was previously known to be the VAMPIRSKA sound, redefined into darkness with an all-destroying ritual for the supernatural devastation that captures the unfamiliar essence of the entity. VAMPIRSKA reignites the black flame to burn stronger than ever with its most deadly display of black metal carnage to date.

Building upon that grand fortress is a four-song/22-minute mini-album likewise truly titled: The Oath of the Black Wolf. Here, ORGREL have gone a-hunting, their ’90s black metal classicism stalking and striking with a hunger only hinted at previously. Still, fueled by this fire they may be, the Italians across this mini manage to maximize their epic side, with the predecessor’s flat-yet-full soundfield now becoming slightly more chromatic in the process. Lead lines portend dark truths, ever building in tension and then grandeur, but the record’s swift-yet-satisfying runtime reveals the darkest, most intrinsic truth: black metal doesn’t need to “become” anything when it already IS. Hail The Oath of the Black Wolf!

After 2019’s well-received Endless Trails demo via SIGNAL REX, HOLLOW WOODS strike with a full-length debut fittingly titled Cold Winds Cleave the Earth. While hailing from Finland, this mysterious entity largely eschew their homeland’s reigning black metal idiom, instead taking influence from Ukraine (Roman Saenko’s projects), Norway (early Ulver, equally early Gorgoroth), and especially Russia (the Blazebirth Hall collective). In other words, pure & proud BLACK METAL, nevertheless done with personality and charisma.

By now, IRAE should require little introduction. Since the dawn of this cursed millennium, mainman Vulturius has prolifically pursued a singular vision of RAW BLACK METAL that includes four full-lengths and countless split releases with likeminded comrades. As such, IRAE have almost singlehandedly invigorated Portugal’s black metal scene, particularly the rawer iteration of it, and more recently find themselves aligned with the elite Black Circle, alongside MONS VENERIS, VETALA, Decrepitude, and Rainha Cólera. Fans since the beginning, SIGNAL REX are honored to be aligned with Vulturius for IRAE’s long-awaited fifth album.
