Recenzja Goat Semen „Fuck Christ”

 Goat Semen

„Fuck Christ”

Hells Headbangers 2024

Przyznam szczerze, że na kolejną płyte Goat Semen czekam z ogromną niecierpliwością już od… dziewięciu lat. Tyle bowiem upłynęło od czasu wydania „Ego Svm Satana”. Co prawda zespół co jakiś czas daje znać, że jeszcze nie zdechł, za pomocą wydawnictw pomniejszych, ale jednak co pełniak to pełniak. Nowe wydawnictwo, o tytule tak dosadnym, że bardziej się nie da, to znowu jedynie EP-ka, jakieś osiemnastu minut muzyki. (Czytaj dalej...)

Recenzja Unholy Craft „Saa Mørkt, Saa Mektig”

 Unholy Craft

„Saa Mørkt, Saa Mektig”

Purity Through Fire 2024

Peregrinus jako muzyk nie próżnuje i znów powraca na łamy Apocalyptic Rites, ale tym razem z nową płytą projektu Unholy Craft. To już trzeci album w dorobku tego przedsięwzięcia. Norweg kontynuuje na nim zamysł obrany na poprzednim albumie „A Blaze Of Tridents”, na którym cisnął w kąt eksperymenty z mieszaniem różnych stylów i skupił się na swoich korzeniach w wyniku czego powstał kolejny krążek, zawierający czyściuteńki black metal w pełni oparty na wzorcach lat dziewięćdziesiątych. (Czytaj dalej...)

Recenzja SUICIDE CIRCLE „Bukkake of Souls”

 SUICIDE CIRCLE

„Bukkake of Souls”

Osmose Productions 2023

Sylwetkę francuskiego Suicide Circle przedstawiałem już na uświęconych łamach Apocalyptic Rites przy okazji ich debiutanckiego materiału zwącego się „Demo MMXX”. Zaprawdę dobra była to produkcja, która przetyrać człowieka potrafiła konkretnie i bez ostrzeżenia. Aktualnie w mym odtwarzaczu kręci się druga, pełna płytka tego horda, którego aktualny status jest w tej chwili nieco zagmatwany. (Czytaj dalej...)

Odium Humani Generis wracają z drugim krążkiem

 

Rising Polish black metal band Odium Humani Generis will release their second full-length album “Międzyczas” via Malignant Voices on 27th September 2024 in CD, vinyl and digital formats.

Get a first taste of the album with the title track “Międzyczas” here: https://youtu.be/BGBZdu2w07w

The physical album is now also available to pre-order via Malignant Voices’ webshop.

“Międzyczas” is an evolution of Odium Humani Generis’ sound which started with 2020’s debut album “Przeddzień” (Cult of Parthenope) and 2022’s EP “Zarzewie” (Folter Records). The album is a journey that moves through the emotional stages of fear, disappointment, sadness and loneliness resounding in every song. Listeners may notice influences from bands such as Taake, Drudkh, Lifelover, Sacrilegium, Vemod or Furia; however, Odium Humani Generis goes a step further, adding subtle but clear references to sounds outside of the traditional spheres of black metal. Despite its melancholic character, the album is full of energetic moments that break the dark, introspective parts and give the music intensity.

“Międzyczas” was recorded with Mariusz Konieczny at Heavy Gear Studio, and the album was mixed and mastered by The Fall (Owls Woods Graves, Hauntologist, Mgła (live)) at Skrzypłocz Studio. The unique graphic design was created by Emilia Śpiewak, and the band photos were taken by Radosław Chojnacki.

Odium Humani Generis (OHG) was established in 2015 in Łódź, Poland. The band comprises Biały on vocals and guitars, Murukh (ex-Fadheit) on drums, Bartos (Imperator, Pandemonium) on bass, Ominous (Nightbound) on guitars. Over the years, the band has toured with bands such as Carpathian Forest, Mgła, Spectral Wound and In Twilight’s Embrace, and supported acts such as Uada, Mortiis, Panzerfaust, Negative Plane, Ellende, Pillorian, Hate, Malokarpatan. OHG also performed at various European festivals including Under the Black Sun (DE), Throne Fest (BE) and Cosmic Void Festival (UK).

“Międzyczas” tracklisting:
1. Lustro
2. Idée Fixe
3. Międzyczas
4. Popłoch
5. Drogowskaz
6. Jarzmo
7. Granice

Recenzja Gorgatron „Sentience Revoked”

 Gorgatron

„Sentience Revoked”

Redefining Darkness 2024

„Oho, kolejna kalka Morbid Angel” pomyślałem gdy z głośników popłynęły pierwsze dźwięki „Divulgence”, otwierającego czwarty już, choć żadnej poprzedniej produkcji nie miałem okazji poznać, albumu Gorgatron. Dobrze to czy źle? No cóż, bogów z Florydy naśladowało już tylu, że nie sposób zliczyć, ale absolwentów Trey’owej szkoły na naprawdę wysokim poziomie było już zdecydowanie mniej. (Czytaj dalej...)

AOP Records 2024

Za nazwą Uprising ukrywa się niejaki Jan van Berlekom, który na co dzień gra w Waldgeflüster więc już wiecie (jeśli oczywiście nie wiedzieliście), że w tym przypadku mowa o tym niemieckim Uprising. Jan założył swój solowy projekt w 2014 roku i w lipcu wypuści czwartą płytę, ale to moje pierwsza impreza z jego twórczością pod tym szyldem. (Czytaj dalej...)

Debiut ADON na początku sierpnia

 

Today, Neuropa Records announces August 2nd as the international release date for ADON’s highly anticipated debut album, Adon, on CD and vinyl formats.

Formed in 2019, ADON are a black / death metal duo hailing from America, helmed by lifelong friends guitarist Nath and vocalist Æthelwulf II. They found solid footing in late 2020 with the addition of session drummer James Stewart (Decapitated, ex-Vader). Their first public release was the Arkane EP in October of that year. A period of silence lasting four years would follow as ADON worked on their full-length debut. The “Axiom” digital single was revealed at the very beginning of 2024, teasing the dark delights of that debut album.

At last, ADON’s first full-length arrived in the form of Adon, elegantly self-titled. Its initial release was exclusively through The Metalhead Box subscription service, but so impressed with its cold-steel majesty, Neuropa immediately sought to release the record worldwide on both CD and vinyl, with expanded deluxe layout. And for good reason: ADON’s opening salvo is a heat-seeking missile and massive wall of gleaming chrome alike, an example of “blackened death metal” that honors the full potential of such an appellation, and very simply a very superlative display of songwriting acumen and pummeling intensity.

An exploration into dark fantasy, a true story of repeating history – ADON characterize their main motives thusly, and so does Adon bring them to burned-black life. ADON examine the fragility of existence through story and violent legend, and supposes what happens when our world is ended. Illustrating that is a record that comprises six songs in 49 minutes that lay forth a stark, sometimes-sensual landscape of cutting clarity and rusted-razor violence. Its unique structure as an album – two distinct halves, which start with two conventional-length songs segueing into two respective titans, the nearly 17-minute “Adon” and the 11-minute closer “Æon,” which is to say nothing of every track beginning with the letter A – regulates and exacerbates the sturm und drang of their equally graceful and muscular execution, where quite-often-godly solos wind in and out of their slipstreaming surge. That latter aspect heightens the overall classiness of Adon, an all-too-rare accomplishment among today’s black / death scene where “good production” is often a slippery slope to sterility. Instead, ADON show themselves as astute craftsmen, able to put their considerable chops in service of the song, and evince a cold / hard / dead texture that feels palpably post-modern despite their authentically classic foundation.

Aesthetic signposts are there, to be sure – prime Necrophobic, Lord Belial, and Naglfar to Thorns’ lone album, post-Rebel Extravaganza Satyricon, and the Norwegian Zykon – but boundless in inspiration and bringing a distinctly American air to proceedings, ADON are undoubtedly on their way to conquering the underground with Adon. What could’ve been one of the “best-kept secrets” is now being released in a worldwide edition: immerse thyself in its alluring “Æther”!

In the meantime, hear Adon in its entirety HERE at ADON's Bandcamp. Preorder info can be found HERE. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:


Tracklisting for ADON's Adon
1. Ascension [6:09]
2. Æther [5:27]

Recenzja SADUS „The Shadow Inside”

 SADUS

„The Shadow Inside”

Nuclear Blast 2023


 

Sadus to kolejni z wielkich, którzy w zeszłym roku przypomnieli o sobie nowymi krążkami. Przez natłok obowiązków nie zdążyłem wcześniej przekazać Wam mojego zdania o tej płycie, więc teraz, nie zważając na wszystko inne, nadrabiam zaległości, tym bardziej że „The Shadow Inside” to moim skromnym zdaniem płyta wręcz doskonała (co prawdę powiedziawszy, specjalnie mnie nie zdziwiło, wszak w przypadku takich grup jak Sadus każdorazowo rozpatrujemy sprawę w kategoriach jakościowych, a nie ilościowych). (Czytaj dalej...)

Nowa HYPERDONTIA do odsłuchu

 

Danish / Turkish Death Metallers Hyperdontia have launched the full-album stream for Harvest of Malevolence ahead of the album's official release date.

The band tapped Decibel Magazine for the exclusive world premiere of Harvest of Malevolence. Listen now at this location.

Firing on all cylinders from the get-go, their relentless brand of pulverizing guitars and punishing drums with intricate bass lines cut only by monstrous vocals spew forth. Monolithically mixed to grant us the most viscerally lacerating blows of Death Metal might, those who salivate for true morbidity will revel in the ecstatic putridity that immediately grips you. From the gut-wrenching rhythmic torment to the phenomenal soloing, aside from sheer brutality, Hyperdontia have technical abilities that far surpass most of their contemporaries while never feeling obnoxious with their utilization. Some utterly mad bass guitar moments or ripping solos show a band who clearly know their way around a fretboard while the consistently savage drumming doesn’t let the rhythmic battery relent. As we heard on their prior works; Hyperdontia are a confident and unforgiving entity and that continues here.
Although they are inarguably merciless and intense, there is such dynamic strength on this new record from the maelstroms of grooves to the more otherworldly sections, all tied together to plunge headlong into abhorrent chaos. Barbaric and yet precise, each blow lands with ferocity and yet a cleverness to every moment is present too. If you value Death Metal being of the highest quality but without sacrificing the true macabre spirit of old, Hyperdontia is the perfect middle ground and their new album showcases that formidably. Promising a harvest of malevolence and ultimately delivering much more, Hyperdontia decimate all in their pathway with some of their most violently intense and cyclonic Death Metal to date.

Recenzja Celestial Sanctuary “Visions of Stagnant Blood”

 Celestial Sanctuary

“Visions of Stagnant Blood”

Self-released / Ritual Terror Rec. 2024

Ej no, co jest, kurwa! Jak to się stało, że Celestial Sanctuary, po bardzo obiecującym debiucie kompletnie zniknął z mojego radaru? I to absolutnie nie dlatego, że nie czekałem na nowe wydawnictwa zespołu, wręcz przeciwnie. Kilka dni temu Brytole wypluli nową EP-kę o widocznym powyżej tytule, która to przypadkiem wpadła w moje ręce, ale okazuje się, że w zeszłym roku wyszedł też drugi duży album zespołu. Koniecznie będę musiał nadrobić zaległości, ale w tej chwili skupmy się na „tu i teraz”. (Czytaj dalej...)

Season Of Mist 2024

Muzyka jaką gra ta włoska kapela nigdy jakoś nie leżała w kręgu moich zainteresowań. Za bardzo kojarzyła mi się z MTV i raczej z chłopakami na deskorolkach niż w ramoneskach. Co za tym idzie skierowana była chyba do radosnej i nieco zbuntowanej młodzieży, która okazjonalnie przy jej dźwiękach mogła się wyszaleć. Od czasu do czasu lądowały w moim odtwarzaczu takie kapele jak chociażby Gojira i Decapitated, ale po jednym czy dwóch odsłuchach kończyły w koszu. (Czytaj dalej...)

The style of FUNERAL VOMIT is influenced by bands such as INFESTER, AUTOPSY, MORTICIAN, CREMATORY, FUNEBRE... with touches in the vein of underground Black Metal as BESTIAL WARLUST, ARCHGOAT, BLASPHEMY which has spawned pure audial abomination and rottenness.

Klip od CEREMONY OF SILENCE

 

Slovakian Blackened Death Metal horde, Ceremony of Silence, in partnership with No Clean Singing, has premiered the visualizer video for "Primaeval Sacrifice," the second single from forthcoming album, Hálios! Check it out below!


"Primaeval Sacrifice" will be available everywhere on June 21!

Willowtip Records will release Hálios July 19 on CD, cassette, vinyl, and digital formats. Pre-orders available at the following locations.



Building upon the foundation laid by their debut album, this new release delves even deeper into the band's unique blend of brutality and atmosphere. The album radiates with suffocating intensity, introducing a richer, more atmospheric dimension to the band's sound, while retaining some of the band's signature aspects of haunting melodies, or breathtaking gradations.

Unborn, all-pervading and radiant. The immutable light of the Universe, our fundamental inherent nature, and a bridge to the mythical time. Hálios represents a breakthrough of the sacred into the temporal world, and sets forth on an eerie journey reenacting old stories inspired by the essence of the ancient Indo-European mythology, entwined in obscure visions and dreams.

Track Listing:

1. Primaeval Sacrifice
2. Serpent Slayer [Video]
3. Moon Vessel
4. Eternal Return
5. Light Runs Through Light
6. Perennial Incantation

„Vermine”

W.T.C. Productions 2024

Sotherion to jednoosobowy projekt, za którym stoi Sébastien Tuvi szerzej znany jako BST, czyli muzyk udzielający się również w takich kapelach jak The Order Of Apollyon czy Aosoth. Dwa lata temu pod swoim solowym szyldem wydał całkiem niezłe demo „Schwarmgeist”, które zawierało dwa utwory black metalu w dość szczególnym tonie, pozostawiając po sobie mały niedosyt i tym samym zaostrzając apetyt na więcej. (Czytaj dalej...)

You can watch the video here:


"No Safe Haven" was recorded at the Rock Lab Studios of Dan Díez from TIERRA SANTA and then mixed by Davide Billia (BEHEADED, ANTROPOPHAGUS, ex-HOUR OF PENANCE...) at the MK2 Studios in Italy, achieving a brutal and powerful sound with which the band returns to its classic Death Metal influenced by the Florida bands of the early 90's. The album cover has been done, once again, by Naroa Etxebarría.

Since the release of the previous album, APOSENTO has undergone some line-up changes, with one of the former vocalists returning to the band, Carlos García, who already played from '93 to '97, recording the EP "Welcome to Darkness" ('97) and also Manu Reyes, who was already a member of the band since its re-formation in 2012 until 2020 playing bass and now converted to guitarist, having recorded two albums and an EP. The line-up is completed by bassist Pablo Vázquez who joined in 2021 and the recently incorporated Raúl Ceballos on drums.

Klip od CASKET ROBBERY

 


Midwest death machine CASKET ROBBERY has posted the official music video for their newest single, "The Lacryphagist." The song marks the band's first new material since their 2022 album, Rituals of Death.

Vocalist Megan Orvold-Scheider comments on the song, "I had so much fun writing for ‘The Lacryphagist’. When we decided it was finally time to sit down and begin writing for the next release, we came up with a really awesome concept and this is a really cool piece of the puzzle. Initially, I got inspired by the stories of Victorian tear vials and I loved the idea of this creature that feeds off of human tears and collects them in various states of emotion. We were able to put in some really grotesque imagery into both the lyrics and the video we shot. I think this single shows our natural next progression as a band and our writing; lyrically getting darker while staying true to our tongue-in-cheek horror vibes that we have so much fun with. We cannot wait to hear what you all think of ‘The Lacryphagist.’"

Nowy numer od CRANIAL DISORDER

 

Mystification Zine is hosting the exclusive premiere of "Traitor", the latest single from Indonesian death metal squad CRANIAL DISORDER. Stream it HERE.

The band have signed to Lethal Scissor Records for the release of their debut album "Congenital Depravity", due out on July 10th 2024.

The fresh eight track offering “Congenital Depravity” marks the outfit’s Lethal Scissor Records debut, and is the successor to their acclaimed “PromoSick 2022” demo. Formed in 2019, CRANIAL DISORDER has brought a breath of fresh air to the scene and has delighted fans and underground connoisseurs alike.

With this album, CRANIAL DISORDER continue to sharpen their sound, which faithfully captures the essence of late ‘90s and early 2000’s brutal death metal. The band’s influences are no secret, but rattling off a list of classic death metal influences doesn’t do justice to the impact that CRANIAL DISORDER achieve with their music, a sound that is as relentless as it is morbid.

The songs are generally aggressive and pummeling, leaving the listener with little or no respite from the assault, but even at breakneck speed, there’s a compositional intricacy on display. Riff is piled upon monstrous riff and razor-wire solos slice, gleaming, through filth as CRANIAL DISORDER bring us a new level of sickening death metal power.

For fans of: Suffocation, Disgorge, Disavowed, Pyaemia

Tracklist:

01. Kobar Bumi
02. The Remained Lust
03. Perpetual Dismemberment
04. Period of Atrocity
05. Inebriated Flesh
06. Exalting the Perversion
07. Compulsive Savagery
08. Traitor

Celestial Sanctuary are back already and sounding more evil than ever before. Picking up exactly where last year’s INSATIABLE THIRST FOR TORMENT left off, with 3 Brand new tracks: Visions of Stagnant Blood, Puddles of You Reflect The Filth Within, Gavage of the Vile.

Showcasing newly harvested facets, not yet seen from the band - this is the band at their most frantic, crushing and darkest yet.

With their biggest show to date at Download Festival, it’s only fitting the band keep pace and carry on flying that dirty, rotten flag for U.K. EXTREME MUSIC.

‘These are not b-sides, these aren’t leftovers from old recording sessions. This is Celestial Sanctuary doing what we do - creating extreme shit for extreme people.

We’ve been on the road playing all over the UK and Ireland, pretty relentlessly I’d say. If you’ve been to a death metal show here in the last 2 years, there’s a good chance you’ve seen us. Where other bands would be exhausted and using that as an excuse to become stagnant, we thrive on it. We writhe in the opportunity to keep making disgusting music. And this is our most vile creation yet. Death Metal is our business and business is fucking good.’’

CELESTIAL SANCTUARY WILL BE OPENING THE DOGTOOTH STAGE ON SATURDAY OF DOWNLOAD FESTIVAL 2024. BE THERE OR BE… DEAD!!!

Jak nietrudno się domyśleć, Trucizna to black metal. Znając natomiast choćby WAN, w którym to rzeczony instrumentalista także się udziela, można zakładać, że jest surowo. (Czytaj dalej...)
