Recenzja Apollinarix „Misanthropic Transcendence”

 Apollinarix

„Misanthropic Transcendence”

Morbid Chapel 2026

Co my tutaj mamy… Krąży w ręku złoty pieniądz… A nie, wróć. Wybrzmiewa w uszach amerykański death metal. Apollinarix pochodzą właśnie zza wielkiej wody, konkretnie z miasta nad słonym jeziorem, a grają tak, jak się u nich na kontynencie gra od dekad. I to na bardzo wysokim poziomie. (Czytaj dalej...)

Recenzja Scarab „Transmutation of Fate”

 Scarab

„Transmutation of Fate”

Brutal Records 2026

Egipski Scarab nie rozpieszcza swoich fanów nowymi nagraniami, bo od kiedy powstał, a było to w 2006 roku, wydał zaledwie trzy płyty i razem z „Transmutation of Fate”, dwie epki. Najnowsza z nich to cztery numery w death metalowym tonie, który jak na Egipcjan przystało, został wzbogacony o bliskowschodnie wpływy, co nie dziwi, bo sekstet ten robi taką muzę od początku swego istnienia. (Czytaj dalej...)

SIGH na koncercie w Polsce

 

Sigh na jedynym koncercie w Polsce!

Mało który zespół może poszczycić się debiutem w barwach Deathlike Silence Euronymousa, ale Sigh to znacznie więcej niż tylko historyczny punkt odniesienia.

Grupa pod wodzą Miraia Kawashimy od dekad redefiniuje granice ekstremum, wplatając w blackmetalową tkankę dźwięki fortepianu, jazzową improwizację i psychodeliczny niepokój.

Koncert Sigh to nie tylko muzyka, to teatralne misterium celebrujące blisko 40 lat wizjonerskiej ścieżki. Przygotujcie się na spotkanie z żywą legendą, która nigdy nie przestała eksperymentować.

Video od HELLEVATE

 

Kansas City thrash masters HELLEVATE have posted the official music video for the title track off their new album, Killicon Valley. This five-minute thrash-fest aims its rage at the use of AI in today's culture.

Watch the video for "Killicon Valley (Silicon Dust)" at this location.

Killicon Valley is relentless in execution. Eleven tracks of the bullshit-free, 'thrash-or-be-thrashed' attitude the band has cultivated over their nearly 20 years of existence. Today, that fury has escalated beyond the breaking point. The result is an album that true fans of old-school thrash can blast with pride.

„Martwimy”

Arcadian Industry 2026

Bardzo podobał mi się debiutancki album projektu chłopaków z Lasu Trumien, który przedstawiałem wam jakieś dwa i pół roku temu. Dlaczego? Bo ja, kurwa, kocham wczesny Darkthrone (znaczy ten sprzed ery heavymetalowej). Kochają go także muzycy Rtęci, tego jestem pewien. Z tym, że w odróżnieniu, choćby od rewelacyjnego Hag, nie jadą z Norwegów po całości. (Czytaj dalej...)

Recenzja Mansvara „Sable Odes to Nihility”

 Mansvara

„Sable Odes to Nihility”

Godz ov War 2026

Mansvara to kapela z Krakowa, gdzie powstała w zeszłym roku. Już za chwilę, nakładem Godz ov War, ukaże się jej debiutancki album, na którym zamieszczono osiem kawałków black-death metalu. To muzyka z tych dysonansowych, która faluje i dusi. Przy pierwszym odsłuchu zdaje się być nieuchwytną materią, ale po bliższym zakolegowaniu się z „Sable Odes to Nihility”, ulotność tego wydawnictwa nieco się urealnia. (Czytaj dalej...)

ENEVELDE i GJENDØD na splicie

 

Today, Terratur Possessions announces June 6th as the international release date for Elegier fra avgrunnen, a special split album between Enevelde and Gjendød, on CD and vinyl LP formats. Worldwide distribution is handled by Amor Fati Productions.

Enevelde and Gjendød each contribute four tracks on this split between two Norwegian underground black metal bands, deeply rooted in the '90s spirit the genre was founded upon. Nature, folklore, darkness, and evil intertwine in that distinctly Norwegian way. With both bands long-established, you won’t find any hyper-modern, triggered, or overproduced black metal here. What you get is a raw, atmospheric journey across windswept mountains, into shadowed valleys, haunted by an evil rising from the darkest pits. For fans of either band, this is some of their strongest material yet—you won’t be disappointed.

In the meantime, hear Enevelde's brand-new track "Langt fra umaken verdt" HERE and Gjendød's brand-new track "Utslettelsen" HERE at Terratur's official YouTube channel. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

Tracklisting for Enevelde and Gjendød's Elegier fra avgrunnen

1. Enevelde - Ut av deg selv

2. Enevelde - Langt fra umaken verdt

3. Enevelde - På dødelige terskler

4. Enevelde - Fødselsdefekt

5. Gjendød - Verden våkner

6. Gjendød - Dødsrikets pinsler

7. Gjendød - Mennesketårnet faller

8. Gjendød - Utslettelsen

Druga płyta HORRIFIER w sierpniu

 

On August 7th internationally, Personal Records is proud to present the highly anticipated second album of Norway's Horrifier, Revelations of Gore, on CD format.

Hailing from Norway, Horrifier have been vomiting pure, old-school brutality straight from the underground since 2022. Drawing inspiration from the legendary death metal bands of the late '80s and early '90s, the quartet channel the rotting sounds of Autopsy, the gnarly filth of Entombed, and the feral aggression of Repulsion.

Released in 2023 by Personal, Horrifier's celebrated debut album, Horrid Resurrection, delivered uncompromising DEATH METAL built on crushing riffs, relentless drumming, and cavernous vocals that sound dragged up from the depths of the grave. No polish, no trends, and no modern gloss; only the raw stench of death metal the way it was meant to be: primitive, violent, and merciless. Horrifier's sound here was putrid, aggressive, and relentlessly primitive, a putrid homage to the genre’s most savage roots.

Now, the Norwegians return with their second full-length, Revelations of Gore: a concept record steeped in death, desperation, and ritual slaughter. Horrifier's second album follows a dying man who, standing at the edge of his final breath, encounters a monstrous entity offering him eternal life - but immortality demands a price… Driven by the fear of death, the man begins feeding the creature with human sacrifices in exchange for more time among the living. What starts as desperation slowly turns into obsession, as the line between survival and damnation fades beneath a growing pile of corpses.

Suitably, Horrifier musically illustrate this desperation & dementia with deft moves between relentless violence and suffocating darkness. Whilst retaining the band's core sound, Revelations of Gore sees bludgeoning riffs and savage tempos colliding with slower, ominous passages that build a heavy atmosphere of dread and decay, mirroring the protagonist’s descent into madness. The production is predictably crushing and richly organic, staying true to the original ethos of the Metal of Death: No gimmicks. No mercy. Only DEATH.

In the meantime, hear the brand-new track "Compelled to Slaughter" HERE at Personal Records' Bandcamp. Preorder info can be found HERE. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

Zapowiedź debiutu TORPOR

 

On July 24th internationally, Dying Victims Productions will release the highly anticipated debut album of Poland's Torpor, Ɖungeon Ɖescent, on CD and vinyl LP formats. And today, Deaf Forever magazine's website premieres the new track "Polybolos." Hear Torpor’s "Polybolos" in its entirety exclusively HERE.

Torpor were formed in Warsaw by three school friends and music fans under the huge influence of Bathory. While recording their first release, Burning Realms / Behold the Spell of Black Fortress, at the dusk of 2018, the band were laying their music foundations inspired by the epic side of black and the haunted / melancholic side of early ‘80s heavy metal.

Since their last release – 2021’s The Ancient Tales EP, which was actually recorded in 2019 – Torpor parted ways with their drummer, who alongside Mike Magister I.V. and Franciszek Archont, was a founding member of the trio. Upon the arrival of a new drummer and long-time friend, Bloodhammer, they recorded their debut album. It marks the result of their work and path undertaken.

"We knew it was our direction to follow and polish, so now, after some time, we can happily present our debut album, Ɖungeon Ɖescent,” the band state. “It is our first real record that pictures our vision exactly how we liked to. After years of wandering around basement rehearsal rooms and two self-released demos, we are finally coming out of our lairs with this LP under the banners of Dying Victims."

Their past connections with fellow labelmates Armagh and Fukkin' Vengeance somewhat explains Torpor’s link to the idiosyncratic side of ancient heavy metal, which has taken far more prominence on Ɖungeon Ɖescent over the first-wave black metal side – but that’s only part of the picture. Some might call it “cleaning up,” others might liken it to a harnessing of feral energies, but Torpor’s emphatic-yet-stoic strut conveys equal amounts of energy and mystery, finesse and fine-tuning. Of course, the power-trio can kick into high gear when they want to, be it heroic gallop or even hypnotic blast, but their sense of movement from one moody segment to the next imparts a narrative flow that’s part and parcel of their lyrical imagery. Or, perhaps it’s true swords & sorcery metal without belaboring the point – no “COOL IMAGERY DUDE” without the music & atmosphere to back it up, more specifically – that harkens to a glorious, sadly bygone era.

However you approach this Ɖungeon Ɖescent, Torpor have surely delivered a cult classic in the making. Passion, authenticity, the reverberating ring of truth…ancient powers arise from time immemorial!
