“Ataque Diabólico a Sacralidade Brasileira”

Adirondack Black Mass 2026

Blasphemaniac poznałem przy okazji reedycji ich EP-ki „Night of the Necromancer”, wznowionej chyba z dwa lata temu przez naszą rodzimą Black Death Production. Dziś, z Brazylijskiego Sao Paolo nadchodzi drugi album, będący, jak głosi sam tytuł „Diabolicznym atakiem na brazylijską świętość”.  Jak mówi notka prasowa, Blasphemaniac są zagorzałymi satanasami, radykalnymi bluźniercami i orędownikami prymitywnej pornografii z lat dziewięćdziesiątych. (Czytaj dalej...)

„Devouring Nameless Abyss”

Iron, Blood and Death Corporation 2026

Godagainst to śmierć metalowy tercet z Chile, który tworzy swoje dźwięki od dwudziestu lat, ale razem z tym, najnowszym krążkiem, mają na koncie tylko trzy płyty. Panowie grają deciora z tych ambitniejszych, bowiem ich kompozycje, choć nawiązują do najlepszych, amerykańskich tuzów gatunku, nie koncentrują się jedynie na diabolicznych klimatach i brutalnych atakach na zmysły fanów. (Czytaj dalej...)

Nowa płyta LUCIFUGE w styczniu

 

On January 29th, 2027 internationally, Dying Victims Productions is proud to present the highly anticipated seventh album of Germany’s Lucifuge, Under Wheels of Sacrilege, on CD and vinyl LP formats. And today, Deaf Forever magazine's website premieres the new title track "Under Wheels of Sacrilege." Hear Lucifuge’s title track "Under Wheels of Sacrilege" in its entirety exclusively HERE.

Formed in 2016, Germany’s Lucifuge steadily built an addicting style of blackened speed metalpunk over the course of three albums, all guided by the iron fist of mainman Equinox. Come 2021’s fourth full-length Infernal Power, Equinox expanded Lucifuge to a full lineup, and it paid off in spades: the band’s first album under the banner of Dying Victims capped this signature sound with power and aplomb, exuding a new professionalism that somehow sounded dirtier than ever. Then, with 2023’s Monoliths of Wrath, Lucifuge further spit-shined their sound and took it in a newer but no-less-parallel direction: classic, ripping-fast thrash of ‘80s gods Sodom, Kreator, Exodus, and of course Slayer. Next year’s Hexensabbat capped the sonic shift, thereby demarcating the band’s second era.

Now arrives Lucifuge’s seventh(!) full-length, Under Wheels of Sacrilege, showing there’s yet more elements to be unveiled in their Second Era. Featuring a polished-yet-spacious production that’s almost vintage 1986, Equinox and crew continue to crank up the tempos but balance out the overdrive with clean guitar breaks and classic heavy metal beats, equally classic song structures and dual guitars reminiscent of Judas Priest and Thin Lizzy. Sodom, early Bathory, and Slayer also continue to be primary influences, but the integration of such contemporaneously old elements manages to make Lucifuge all the more unique and more like EVIL heavy metal rather than simply a thrash band trying to go more accessible. Put another way, with solos spanning more melodic and even rhythmic variety and Equinox’s vocals more upfront in the mix, Under Wheels of Sacrilege suitably approximates its namesake: epic BIKER METAL with an eye for the arena and (evil) atmosphere to spare.

Not many bands can clean up the way Lucifuged o and maintain the same sense of integrity and especially power, but these Germans somehow manage the feat on Under Wheels of Sacrilege, and deliver their finest record yet. The open road is lined with the graves of the ‘80s!

After a five-year wait, the band's seventh album continues the journey through the depths with a cathartic variety of emotions and intensity. Leaving the black metal beginnings behind, TORII is drifting through psychedelic fields of post-metal, death-doom, and doom.

Nowy KARNER w grudniu

 

From the burning heights of the sun to the lightless depths beneath all existence, Austrian Black Metal band KARNER, hailing from Villach, Carinthia, descend once more with their second full-length album, Zebrest:Zintrest.

With its fusion of raw, second-wave authenticity, elegiac melodies, and a lingering invocation of the forces of nature, folklore, and death, Zebrest:Zintrest appears like a porous, moss-covered monolith that will endure for eternity.

Even the opening track, ‘Zebrest’—rising ghostlike from the depths of history as if to the singing of a long-vanished Christian congregation and flowing into a chorus of folkloric, pagan splendour—already hints at the intensity of what is to come. Whether it’s ‘Die letzte Sun’, which combines riot and harshness with an elegiac melody reminiscent of Katatonia’s finest days; ‘Thronfoll’, which blends blasts and majestic melodies; or the infernal ‘Limbus’, screaming over a deep abyss and rocking with brute force—Karner do not remain confined to limitations and compositional simplicity when they take you along on their dark journey.

Zebrest:Zintrest is a movement between extremes: light and abyss, creation and destruction, defiance and downfall, the uppermost and the lowermost. A journey that begins in blinding radiance and ends beyond darkness itself. These ambiguities shape every composition, giving the music its own character. Fierce and unrestrained in its most frantic moments, vast and epic when it reaches beyond the horizon. The album, completely written in the band’s regional dialect, unfolds as a world of opposing forces colliding and merging into one another.

From above to below. From everything into nothing. ZEBREST:ZINTREST. Folter Records is proud to present this profound manifesto of dark compositional art. Zebrest:Zintrest will be released on Digipack CD.

Zapowiedź trzeciego UMBRA CONSCIENTIA

 

Today, Terratur Possessions announces December 9th as the international release date for Umbra Conscientia's highly anticipated third album, The Shrine of Thagirion, on CD and vinyl LP formats. Worldwide distribution is handled by Amor Fati Productions.

This marks the third full-length by the Costa Rican / German black metal band Umbra Conscientia! Built on the tension between relentless aggression and the cold, malignant atmosphere of its predecessor, the record moves into more claustrophobic territory, where violence and atmosphere are forced into a suffocating equilibrium.

The Shine of Thagirion is Umbra Conscientia at their most oppressive, without abandoning the aggression that has always defined the band.

Artworks by Dávid Glomba. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

Tracklisting for Umbra Conscientia's The Shrine of Thagirion

1. Foreshadowing [2:16]

2. Extinguisher of the Sun [5:43]

3. Solace Denied [5:28]

4. Spiritual Drought [4:48]

5. We Summon Thee [7:08]

6. Throne Of Fear [5:27]

7. El Resplandor de Thagirion [6:37]

OUTRE-TOMBE wracają z nową płytą

 

On January 29th, 2027 internationally, Dying Victims Productions is proud to present the highly anticipated fourth album of Québec’s Outre-Tombe, Fléau des âmes, on CD and vinyl LP formats. And today, Deaf Forever magazine's website premieres the new track "Hantise." Hear Outre-Tombe’s "Hantise" in its entirety exclusively HERE.

Hailing from Québec City, Canada’s Outre-Tombe formed in 2009 as a thrash metal trio. Upon their expansion into a quartet, the band quickly malformed their sound into old-school death metal inspired by the classics of the ‘80s and ‘90s. With the intent of playing sadistic metal evoking tales of the macabre, Outre-Tombe released three albums in steady succession – 2015’s Répurgation, 2018’s Nécrovortex, and 2021’s Abysse mortifère – each one more definitively asserting their identity and reaping ever more acclaim in the process. In 2022, Outre-Tombe toured Europe, but a fourth full-length has proved elusive.

Until now, with the imminent release of Fléau des âmes, courtesy of new label home Dying Victims. On first blush, Fléau des âmes immediately sounds like Outre-Tombe: foremost influences of classic Dismember, Autopsy, and Entombed firmly in place, the rush & crush is distinctly theirs. However, those closely following the band’s trajectory will be morbidly pleased by the slight-yet-significant advances on LP#4. For one, Fléau des âmes features the most devastating production yet on an Outre-Tombe record; where past recordings tended toward the rawer and resolutely old-school, this album seemingly SWARMS with three-dimensional menace, dirt and clarity in equally brawny balance. For another, that production upgrade heightens an expanding songwriting arsenal; where said influences can still felt, there’s some Dutch doominess ala old Asphyx, Pentacle, and Thanatos here, giving a more worldly character to Fléau des âmes whilst remaining proudly among the ancient. Perhaps most of all – and, perhaps, symptomatic of said songwriting – there’s something of a newfound swagger to Outre-Tombe here; don’t mistake it for the pejorative “groove” or the misleading “swinging,” but the quartet exude a loose & lawless aspect to their execution that’s addicting to the extreme.

Six years is a mighty-long time between albums, but Outre-Tombe more than make up for lost time with Fléau des âmes, hungry to return and demonstrate the grit of their new material on the old continent.

Hammerheart Rec. 2026

Savage przedstawiałem wam już dwukrotnie. Za każdym razem w samych superlatywach. Tak to jednak bywa, że zespół, który wyśmienicie rokuje na EP-kach czy demówkach, nagrywając debiut bardzo mocno spuszcza z tonu. Tym bardziej jeśli przechodzi z podziemnego labelu do znaczącej coś więcej na rynku wydawniczym wytwórni. (Czytaj dalej...)

Nowy album DET EVIGA LEENDET do odsłuchu

 

"The chaos ritual

of transcendent destruction

shall bring a thousand years of peace" ('Virtue')

Ominous and tumultuous entity DET EVIGA LEENDET return to cement an already-strong reputation with their third album – and DMP debut – the aptly titled "Vehemence". Emerging from Uppsala in 2015 and taking their name from Pär Lagerkvist's existentialist 1920 novel, the Swedish collective has carved a unique and introvert path through contemporary Black Metal, where beauty and suffocation, vastness and claustrophobia exist side-by-side.

In collaboration with the Black Metal Promotion YouTube channel, we are pleased to unveil "Vehemence" in its entirety ahead of official release:

Recenzja Rotheads „Sepulchral Spore”

 Rotheads

„Sepulchral Spore”

Independent 2026

Rumuński Rotheads milczał już wystarczająco długo. Wiadomo, że z tego kraju zbyt wielu wartościowych pozycji metalurgiczne wydawnictwa nie dostarczają, ale rzeczona nazwa warta jest uwagi. I nie świadczy o tym jedynie fakt, iż ich dwa krążki wydane zostały nakładem Memento Mori, bo akurat w katalogu Hiszpanów Rotheads jawi się jednym z wybijających się ponad średnią zespołów. (Czyutaj dalej...)

 Noroth / Mortual

„Noroth / Mortual”

Night Terrors Records / Goat Throne Records 2026

Na ring jako pierwszy wchodzi amerykański Noroth, który zdążył już w przeszłości poznać się od swej najlepszej strony. Tutaj ją również bezwstydnie eksponuje i zapodaje trzy numery gęstego jak smoła death metalu. To dla nich normalne, że są to pulsująco-pełzające riffy, które zsyłają mroczną i przygnębiającą atmosferę oraz tony ciężkiego brudu. (Czytaj dalej...)
