Hospice pod względem personalnym nikomu przedstawiać nie zamierzam. Bo trzeba
być ignorantem, żeby nie wiedzieć kto zacz. Zespół wtargnął kilka lat temu do
elity polskiego black metalu z kopyta, nawet nie wyważając drzwi, a dosłownie
rozbijając je na drzazgi, roszcząc sobie prawo do tronu. Jednocześnie podzielił
narodowe metalowe społeczeństwo na silnych antagonistów (a bo to wtórne, a bo
tam gra Inferno z Behemoth, to pewnie umie podpromować byle gówno nazwiskiem) i
bezkrytycznych wyznawców.(Czytaj dalej...)
On October 23rd internationally, Dying Victims Productions is proud to present Fvneral Fvkk’s highly anticipated second album, Indecent Idols, on CD and vinyl LP formats. And today, Deaf Forever magazine's website premieres the new track "Bishop of the Iron Guard." Hear Fvneral Fvkk’s "Bishop of the Iron Guard" in its entirety exclusively HERE.
Founded in Hamburg in 2015, Fvneral Fvkk consists entirely of musicians from the city’s extreme metal underground. Fvneral Fvkk combine towering, epic doom metal with lyrics exclusively inspired by documented crimes, abuse, and corruption committed by religious institutions throughout history and into the present day.
Following the blasphemous acclaim of their debut EP, 2017’s Lecherous Liturgies, and their first full-length sermon, 2019’s Carnal Confessions, Germany’s most notorious ecclesiastical doom metal congregation emerge once again with a new chapter of sacred obscenity: Indecent Idols. Musically, this equally aptly titled second album serves as a logical continuation of Fvneral Fvkk’s established sound: solemn, cathedral-sized riffing, mournful melodies, and crushing heaviness merge with an atmosphere that oscillates between sacred grandeur and utter moral decay. Right from the austere opening choral notes into the senses-swarming chords of the record’s first riff, Indecent Idols creates an all-enveloping and alternately dense / spacious experience; one could call it “monastic” if not for the heretical lyricism, but the strident march of it all says everything on its own. Likewise, Cantor Cinaedicus’ clean tenor could be considered “heavenly” despite the dark nature of his themes, and the rest of the band’s dynamic shifts straddle the line between those heavens and Hell in sweeping fashion.
Influenced by the epic tradition of classic doom metal while embracing an increasingly oppressive and emotional intensity, Indecent Idols expands both the scale and darkness of Fvneral Fvkk’s previous works. Amen!

Now in their 37th year of blasphemous brutality, legendary Finnish Black Metal iconoclasts ARCHGOAT remain one of the most single-minded and relentlessly visceral bands in extreme music. Ahead of the 11th September release of new album "Nightbringer, Lightbringer", the Finnish legends now unleash a second angelslaying attack!
Listen to 'The Dawn To Armageddon' below:
ARCHGOAT crawled from the deepest pits of hell to form in 1989, a demonic trio consisting of brothers Ritual Butcherer on guitars and Lord Angelslayer on vocals/bass, with Blood Desecrator handling drums. After a pair of initial demo tapes, in 1993 ARCHGOAT shook the Black Metal world with debut EP "Angelcunt (Tales of Desecration)", showcasing a relentless and bestial blend of Black and Death Metal. After a growing dissolution with the Black Metal scene at large, and a disagreement with their then-record label Necropolis Records, ARCHGOAT vanished in late 1993.
In 2004 the gates reopened anew. ARCHGOAT returned initially with some long-lost material and then in 2006, the release of their groundbreaking first official full-length, "Whore of Bethlehem". The band subsequently unleashed two more albums, 2009's "The Light-Devouring Darkness", and 2015's "The Apocalyptic Triumphator" via new label Debemur Morti Productions, in addition to a series of splits, EPs, and compilations. Between releases ARCHGOAT carved out a deadly reputation via their malevolent live rituals, storming the shores of Europe, the US, and Mexico alongside bands such as BEHEXEN, BLACK WITCHERY, and HELL MILITIA.
2018 saw the band unleash "The Luciferian Crown", their second full length for DMP, and an ungodly black sacrament of the kind that only ARCHGOAT can craft. In 2020, the live album "Black Mass XXX" was issued, capturing the angelslaying chaos present during the band's September 2019 Paris performance.
2021 fifth album "Worship The Eternal Darkness" saw ARCHGOAT cement their well-earned reputation for consistency via a unique synthesis of occult Finnish Black/Death Metal, harsh Punk, primal Thrash and Grindcore. The follow-up and companion piece mini-album "All Christianity Ends" - a natural successor to the band's first EP "Angelcunt" - was unleashed in 2022, channelling the rawness and devastation of the band’s earliest days in four gruesome new compositions.
Between 2022 and 2026, ARCHGOAT continued to propagate their darkness via numerous live rituals, reaching territories they had never desecrated before. Highlights include the band's October 2024 headline performance at DMP's Servants of Chaos festival in Germany, and in 2025, two highly successful tours across Latin America and China.
Now, in 2026, the Finnish Black Metal war machine returns with an unwaveringly destructive sixth album. Recorded in February at the Malmi Dungeon with Teemu Velin, "Nightbringer, Lightbringer" is scheduled for release on September 11th and see the band crown their 37th year with uncompromising brutality.

splicik z czarnej koperty, czyli tym razem Death Invoker i Hessian. Ci pierwsi
pochodzą z Limy, grają ku chwale rogatego już dwie dekady, ale nadal bronią się

Demonic Manifestation are a Mexican death metal band from Colima, formed in 2012 after years of different parallel projects among its members.

Why reinvent the wheel when you can simply CRUSH it? Demonic Manifestation keep it rolling with Grimshrine!

Tracklisting for Demonic Manifestation's Grimshrine
Swedish hardcore punk legends TOTALITÄR have released "Älskade USA", the second single taken from their upcoming self-titled album, due out on August 28th via De:Nihil Records in Europe and Prank Records in North America.
A furious blast of uncompromising Scandinavian hardcore, "Älskade USA" delivers everything that has made TOTALITÄR one of the most influential names in the genre: raw aggression and a direct, no-frills approach that remains as powerful today as it was decades ago.
Dutch collective TRENCHWAR unveil "Overlords of Cold", the second single and title track from their forthcoming debut album, scheduled for release on September 18th, 2026 via Time To Kill Records.
Offering a deeper glimpse into the band's creative vision, "Overlords of Cold" is built around monolithic riffs and an ever-present sense of impending collapse. Drawing on the members' extensive backgrounds within the Dutch metal and hardcore underground, the track avoids easy formulas in favour of songwriting that is deliberate, tightly woven and rich in tension.
Rather than simply overwhelming through sheer force, the song thrives on friction: lumbering passages suddenly give way to bursts of violent momentum, while bleak textures and jagged rhythmic turns constantly reshape its landscape. The result is a composition that feels austere yet gripping, where every movement sharpens the impact of the next.
Ostatnio
listonosz podrzucił mi do skrzynki czarną kopertę, a w niej trzy nowe
wydawnictwa amerykańskiego Hessian. Wszystkie z nich to splity, z zespołami z
różnych części świata. W pierwszej kolejności wrzuciłem na ruszt materiał
dzielony z brazylijskim Satanic Empire. Dlaczego? Bo jest najstarszy, ukazał
się cyfrowo już niemal rok temu. (Czytaj dalej...)
Wytwórnia Selfmadegod Records prezentuje wznowienia dwóch klasycznych i
wyprzedanych albumów grindcore'owego MY MINDS MIND: Between Soothing Consolation and Uncontrollable Madness oraz Scenes of the Complete Annihilation of This Planet. Premiera obu wydawnictw w sierpniu. Szczegóły poniżej.
Between Soothing Consolation and Uncontrollable Madness ukazuje rzeczywistość rozpiętą pomiędzy pozornym spokojem a narastającym chaosem. Już same tytuły utworów: Shutdown in Progress, Brainbox Suicide, I Own the World, Sick Media Sick czy Clone Devotion kreślą obraz społeczeństwa pogrążonego w kryzysie tożsamości, medialnym szumie, manipulacji i postępującej dehumanizacji. Krótkie, intensywne kompozycje tworzą zwartą narrację, w której osobisty niepokój splata się z krytyką współczesnej cywilizacji, a granica pomiędzy ukojeniem i obłędem staje się coraz mniej wyraźna.
Jeszcze bardziej bezkompromisową wizję przynosi Scenes of the Complete Annihilation of This Planet. Składający się z dwudziestu czterech utworów album jest muzycznym manifestem przeciwko przemocy, chciwości, fanatyzmowi, manipulacji i społecznemu konformizmowi. Utwory takie jak: On the Soil of Greed, Cyberchrist, Mobilization of Chaos, Remote Controller, Pretentious Idols tworzą kolejne obrazy świata pogrążającego się w moralnym i społecznym rozpadzie. Finałowy, najdłuższy utwór zamyka tę opowieść niczym gorzka puenta – wizja planety zmierzającej ku autodestrukcji staje się metaforą konsekwencji ludzkiej chciwości, obojętności i ślepego podążania za ideologiami.
Premiera reedycji Between Soothing Consolation and Uncontrollable Madness oraz Scenes of the Complete Annihilation of This Planet 14 sierpnia 2026 r. na CD nakładem Selfmadegod Records. Wznowieniu towarzyszy drop dedykowanego merchu.
Czy
jestem fanem deathcore’a? Nie. Czy Complexant grają deathcore’a? Tak. Po co
zatem sięgnąłem po ten album, skoro już na starcie wiadomo, że mi się nie
spodoba? A bo ja wiem. Może dlatego, że co jakiś czas mam ochotę jednak
sprawdzić, czy w gatunku nie należącym do moich priorytetów coś się ruszyło. (czytaj dalej...)
