Recenzja Putrid „All That We Hate”

 Putrid

„All That We Hate”

Godz ov War 2025

Można by powiedzieć, że w Peru bez zmian. A przynajmniej u chłopaków z Putrid, którzy to wypuszczą lada moment kolejny album pod skrzydłami Godz ov War. Jeśli dobrze pamiętam, „Antichrist Above” określiłem mianem największej rozpierduchy wydanej przez ten krajowy label. Nie będzie zatem zdziwieniem, jeśli od razu powiem, że „All that We Hate” tę barbarzyńską tradycję podtrzymują, mieszcząc się w ścisłym topie napierdalatorów, i to nie tylko w ramach wspomnianego labelu. (Czytaj dalej...)

Recenzja Murmur „Red Hill”

 Murmur

„Red Hill”

Independent 2025

Powstały osiem lat temu, madrycki zespół Murmur, powinien siąść fanom takich wykwitów jak Alcest, Deafheaven czy Harakiri For The Sky, bowiem Hiszpanie grają podobny, jak nie ten sam rodzaj „black metalu”. Cudzysłów nie jest przypadkowy, ponieważ tego rodzaju muzyka jedynie wykorzystuje pewne elementy tego gatunku jak szorstkie wokale czy tremolando, a reszta to już zupełnie inna historia, którą można z powodzeniem powiązać z takimi, modnymi dzisiaj terminami jak post-black metal i blackgaze. (Czytaj dalej...)

EP-ka ZADISM do odsłuchu

 


Ahead of its release this Friday, Mystification Zine today presents an exclusive stream of “Under Sadistic Law”, the merciless debut EP from Sweden's rabid death-thrash metal crew ZADISM.

Stream “Under Sadistic Law” at THIS LOCATION..

From the blackened mines of Bergslagen and rising from the ashes of the now‑defunct band Maniak, Sweden's ZADISM emerge as an unholy force bent on obliterating restraint.

Guided by the spirit of the early Brazilian underground (you know the ones - disfigured riffs, filthy production, uncompromising aggression) and the savage blueprint laid down by the German thrash metal pioneers at the dawn of the scene, this duo brings a sound steeped in raw violence and fury.

Their debut EP “Under Sadistic Law”, out 21 November via De:Nihil Records and Dala Destroi Records, is a concentrated dose of extremity: short, brutal and unrelenting. ZADISM don’t just honour the relics of the past: they inject them with fresh, virulent energy and drag them screaming into the present.

Tracklist:
01. Ernestine
02. Victims of the Sadistic Whip
03. Under Sacred Soil
04. Chapel of Scum
05. Coprophilian Nightmare

Drugi SKULLD końcem stycznia

 


Italian death metal collective SKULLD will release their highly anticipated new album, "Abyss Calls to Abyss", on January 30th, 2026 via Time To Kill Records. The record marks a decisive step forward in the band’s evolution, expanding their uncompromising sound into a work of rare intensity and depth.

Rooted in the raw aggression of old-school Swedish death metal and infused with the grit of crust punk and hardcore, "Abyss Calls to Abyss" channels both ferocity and purpose. Yet beneath the surface of blast beats and corrosive riffs lies a profound lyrical and conceptual dimension, one that merges feminist and pagan themes, esoteric reflection, and socio-political awareness into a cohesive, cathartic whole.

Across eight tracks, SKULLD explore the abyss as both an inner and outer dimension: a place of dissolution and regeneration, death and renewal, where individual and collective struggles mirror one another. Written and recorded in 2025, the album captures the band at their most inspired and urgent, balancing sheer aggression with moments of melody and introspection.

With "Abyss Calls to Abyss", SKULLD reaffirm their place as one of the most compelling voices in Italy’s extreme metal underground: fearless, defiant, and entirely their own.

The first single "The Blink" is now streaming:


Tracklist:
1. Healing the Wound
2. The Blink
3. Accabadora
4. Wear the night as a Velvet Cloak
5. Le Diable and The Snake
6. Mother Death
7. Drops of Sorrow
8. Sacred Fires

INVICTUS zapowiadają drugi album

 

Today, Memento Mori in conspiracy with Me Saco Un Ojo Records announce January 26th, 2026 as the international release date for the highly anticipated second album of Japan's Invictus, Nocturnal Visions. Memento Mori will handle the CD version while Me Saco Un Ojo will handle the vinyl version.

Conceived in Nagano City back in 2015, Invictus' original goal was to play death metal with hints of technicality and a strong thrash metal edge, combining the morbid grooves and abhorrent atmospherics of all archaic death metal gods (Death, Malevolent Creation, Monstrosity, Brutality, Mercyless, Morbid Angel, Gorguts, Obituary, early Decapitated, Sadistic Intent, early Cannibal Corpse) and prioritizing the creation of songs crammed with commanding riffs over any other aspect of their putrescent music. While the target remains the same, the band is now exploring a broader spectrum of riff-oriented death metal in order to aggravate the carnage, exuding a more pernicious aural decay and bludgeoning the listener into submission by some of the meatiest and most vitriolic death metal conceivable.

Witness the Japanese band's second album, Nocturnal Visions. While 2020's The Catacombs of Fear debut album was no slouch, here do Invictus exude a unique feel to their music that is enshrouded in the mystique of the past. Guttural guitars throw forth bolts of arcane malignancy while the drumming pulverizes the corporeal body with percussive blows. Vocally, the band sit in their macabre low-register and ensure everything is tied together gloriously for your listening displeasure with a truly crushing production that's as organically lethal as it can get.

Notwithstanding their prodigious execution - leaden yet quick, moving anywhere and everywhere with preternatural ease but never sacrificing an ounce of heaviness - Invictus display masterful songwriting across these Nocturnal Visions; trace elements of the aforementioned influences might crop up, but they're minced and mangled to such a degree that the album proudly slots itself among those legends rather than picking at their collective carcass. Authentic as it comes, then, and completed by compelling, era-authentic artwork courtesy of Juanjo Castellano: if you love death metal, true and morbid, then don't miss out on these Japanese masters of putridity!

In the meantime, hear the brand-new track "Abyssal Earth Eradicates" HERE at Memento Mori's official YouTube channel. Aforementioned cover art and tracklisting are as follows:

Recenzja Bleeding Forest „Revolution”

 Bleeding Forest

„Revolution”

Independent 2024

Chwilę temu gościł na łamach Apocalyptic Rites nowy album Mortis Dei, to dziś przyszedł czas na kolejny zespół z mojego rodzimego miasta. Tym razem trafił się twór z młodego pokolenia, bowiem chłopaki odpowiedzialni za Bleeding Forest nie dobili jeszcze nawet do dwudziestki. Nie wiem dlaczego, ale w swojej przedodsłuchowej projekcji założyłem, że kolesie bankowo grają black metal. (Czytaj dalej...)

Recenzja Funeral Harvest „Malum in Se”

 Funeral Harvest

„Malum in Se”

Amor Fati 2025

Funeral Harvest to ekipa z Trondheim, która pojawiła się na tamtejszej scenie w 2016 roku. Panowie właśnie wydali swoją najnowszą epkę, która oczywiście niesie ze sobą black metal. Black metal, który jest utrzymany w specyficznej formie, właściwej dla Nidaros, choć trudno w przypadku tego kręgu kapel mówić o jakimś wzorcu, ponieważ w ramach tak zwanego „Nidrosian Black Metal” mieści się kilka sposobów na ten gatunek. (Czytaj dalej...)

Recenzja Blut Aus Nord „Ethereal Horizons”

 Blut Aus Nord

„Ethereal Horizons”

Debemur Morti 2025

Jeśli dobrze liczę, „Ethereal Horizons” jest szesnastym krążkiem Blut Aus Nord, zespołu będącego dziś absolutnym klasykiem i współtwórcą gatunku zwanego powszechnie dysonansowym black metalem. Zamierzam zadać tu pytanie, ale nie będzie ono brzmiało „Czy na szesnastym albumie można wymyśleć jeszcze coś nowego, bez wchodzenia w romanse z gatunkami bardzo odległymi, tracąc przy tym swoje naturalne oblicze?”. (Czytaj dalej...)

Recenzja Änterbila „Avart”

 Änterbila

„Avart”

Nordvis Produktion 2025

Änterbila to kwartet ze Szwecji, który gra sobie od 2020 roku. Trzy lata temu panowie wydali debiutancką płytę, a obecnie wracają z dwójeczką. Co rzępolą? Ano coś, czego według Fenriza nie powinno się nigdy łączyć, bowiem jest to folk-black metal. Pierwszy, instrumentalny kawałek zapowiada niezłą lipę, bo melodyjki oraz obecność w nim takich instrumentów jak dudy i skrzypce, zwiastują ścieżkę do filmów pokroju „Braveheart” czy „Rob Roy”. (Czytaj dalej...)

Nowy kawałek ASTRAL SPEAR

“Mud And Black Water” to debiutancka płyta Neon Müd. Zespół pracował nad nią dwa lata. Jest ona zapisem własnej pracy, zabawy, wątpliwości, budowania stylu, obserwacji świata, autorefleksji i wewnętrznych rozterek.

“Jest ponuro, brudno i dystopijnie, ale też zabawnie (jeśli ktoś docenia wisielczy humor) i słodko-gorzko.. Krąg tematyczny? Od okultyzmu, przez depresję, aż po atomowy holokaust. Samo życie!” - tak Neon Müd opisuje swój album “Mud And Black Water”.

Okładka albumu “Mud And Black Water” jest autorstwa Roberta A. von Rittera. Grafika, znanego ze współpracy z wieloma zespołami black i death metalowymi, takimi jak In Twilight’s Embrace, Witchmaster, Ragehammer, czy Owls Woods Graves.

Trzeci krążek GREVE na początku grudnia

 

On December 6th internationally, Purity Through Fire is proud to present the highly anticipated third album of Sweden's Greve, Bleknat Bortom Evig Tid, on CD format. The vinyl version will follow in the new year.

Since bursting from the void in 2019, Greve have become a gold standard for classic, second-wave Swedish black metal seemingly decades removed from anything resembling modernity. Which should come as little surprise given that Greve were yet another band helmed by Ancient Records linchpin Swartadauþuz (Bekëth Nexëhmü, Gnipahålan, Musmahhu, Trolldom, Daudadagr, Secrets et. al.). Much like most / all of Swartadauþuz's projects are blessed with an intrinsically ancient sound, so, too, did Greve with a breathtakingly spectral 'n' stargazing style of black metal mysticism, displayed in full-length form first on 2019's Nordarikets Strid and then 2022's Föllo af Svavel, Lifvets Dimridå.

Dependably, when that modernity begins to become too suffocating, Swartadauþuz returns - now with Greve's third full-length, Bleknat Bortom Evig Tid. With Korgath joining him on vocals for the second straight record, Greve continue to push their sound to the hinterlands of their imagination - and even deeper into the past. Whereas its towering predecessor wielded both beauty and menace in a denser and more-aggressive soundfield, Bleknat Bortom Evig Tid surges and decelerates to a more skeletal and yet somehow-more-immediate framework. To be sure, this is the clearest Greve have sounded to date, with a crisp and sparkling soundfield heightening that skeletal aspect; also to be sure, Swartadauþuz's songwriting has rarely been this concise and compact, even when still stretched to eight minutes per song, nor has his melodicism held such a yearning quality. This lateral development pays off in spades, serving to expand the Greve world whilst keeping their core values intact. Where labyrinths once unfolded into ever more labyrinths, Bleknat Bortom Evig Tid offers the listener wide-open spaces and a direct path to the horizon: Atmospheric Black Metal Art (Exclusively) for dreamers and lone wolves alike!

In the meantime, hear the brand-new track "Nektar av Dödens Gift" HERE at Purity Through Fire's official YouTube channel. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

as our ancestors did." ('Renunciation')

On December 19th, LYCHGATE will unveil their meticulously crafted fourth album, "Precipice". In anticipation, the UK avant–Black/Death Metal ensemble now presents a second preview track, 'Renunciation.'

BARDITUS zapowiadają debiutancki album

 


Today, Purity Through Fire announces December 6th as the international release date for Barditus' long-awaited debut album, Nibelungentreue, on digipack CD and vinyl LP formats.

Begun in 2004, Barditus is a studio & live project of Uwe Nolte, from the cult Orplid. In 2021, after nearly two decades since the first two initial EPs, Nolte revived the project together with Anti-Christian from Stern des Bundes. While Orplid's sound is somewhere between neofolk and neoclassical, with themes ranging from Germanic paganism and Greek mythology to the Christian symbolism of the early Middle Ages and natural romanticism, here with Barditus do the duo explore a sound somewhere between paradigmatic neofolk and black metal - or even "acoustic black metal," if you will. And while in Orplid the occidental bastion was defended with the quill, Barditus take up the sword and unconditionally profess heroism and love.

In the meantime, see & hear the brand-new videos for "Sei ein Mann!" HERE and "Schau auf zu den Sternen" HERE, both at Uwe Nolte's official YouTube channel. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

Recenzja Königreichssaal „Loewen II”

 Königreichssaal

„Loewen II”

Godz ov War 2025

 

Königreichssaal to zespół, który w pierwszej kolejności zapadł mi w pamięć poprzez osobę Papy Artura w składzie i kultowe zdjęcie w żonobijce na cmentarzu. Dopiero jakiś czas później zobaczyłem chłopaków na żywo, i to był drugi impuls do uzupełnienia sobie ich dyskografii. Stwierdzić trzeba, że każde kolejne wydawnictwo „Koników” jest inne, ale każde tak samo dobre. Nie inaczej jest w przypadku drugiej EP-ki zespołu, podobnie jak wcześniejsza zatytułowanej „Loewen”. (Czytaj dalej...)

 Liminal Spirit

„Unwell”

Self-Release 2025

Niedawno, bo chyba jakoś w maju, Jerry Hauppa wydał epkę „Pathways”, a teraz powraca z debiutanckim długograjem „Unwell”. Kontynuuje on na tej płycie swoje improwizacyjne i modernistyczne zapędy, zapodając pięć utworów, które są trudne w odbiorze. Na poprzedniej produkcji za pomocą muzyki opowiadał historię ludzi, którzy zostali zamknięci w labiryncie, a na „Unwell” próbuje przedstawić problem ludzi z demencją, która nie zwalnia ich od odpowiedzialności za czyny popełnione w przeszłości. (Czytaj dalej...)

Nowy kawałek TENEBRO

 


Italian death metal act TENEBRO are now premiering their new single “Jennifer”, the latest glimpse from their upcoming album “Una Lama D’Argento”, set for release on December 12th, 2025 via Time To Kill Records.

With its sharp, brooding approach, the track captures a sense of tension and dread, translating horror-inspired imagery into pure sonic impact.

Drugi singiel od DARK DIVINATION

 


Today, Finnish black metallers Dark Divination reveal the new track "Pride of Victory."

NEWBREED prezentuje wideo do utworu "I Still Admire The World"

 


Prog-metalowi innowatorzy z NEWBREED prezentują piękny i poruszający film krótkometrażowy do utworu I Still Admire The World. Kompozycja pochodzi z albumu OutLaw, który ukazał się nakładem Selfmadegod Records.

Gitarzysta i wokalista Tomasz Wołonciej przedstawia I Still Admire The World słowami: Najbardziej eksperymentalny numer na albumie, praktycznie w całości elektroniczny. Mieliśmy już kawałek zatytułowany When I Admire The World, w którym próbowałem wyrazić uczucie, w którym moja zmarła w tamtym czasie matka wciąż widzi świat swoimi oczami. Czas mija, a świat niekoniecznie staje się lepszym miejscem, ale wciąż potrafię się nim zachwycić. Mam nadzieję, że ona również.

NEWBREED OutLaw ukazało się 31 października 2025 r. jako trzypanelowy digipak CD nakładem Selfmadegod Records.





Nowy MALIGNANT AURA w styczniu

 

Memento Mori in conspiracy with Grindhead Records and Primitive Moth are proud to present Malignant Aura's highly anticipated second album, Where All of Worth Comes to Wither. Memento Mori will release the CD version on January 26th, 2026 while the vinyl version will follow in mid-February from Grindhead and Primitive Moth.

Crawling from beneath the bloody earth in 2022, Malignant Aura gathered widespread accolades for with their debut full-length, Abysmal Misfortune is Draped Upon Me. Their sorrowful melodies and crushing riffs forged brutally authentic live shows, captivating audiences across Australia alongside genre stalwarts like Esoteric and Mournful Congregation. Now, the band lurch forward, preparing to unearth their second album, Where All of Worth Comes to Wither.

A full-length descent into the depths of human despair, Where All of Worth Comes to Wither is a harrowing blend of death metal and doom: vicious, somber, and triumphant. As aptly titled as its no-less-considerable predecessor, Where All of Worth Comes to Wither sees Malignant Aura both expanding and contracting their sound, broadening its sonic possibilities whilst focusing the songwriting for maximum, abyss-ward effect. Malignant Aura are unafraid of the titanic; where the debut album encompassed six songs in 53 minutes, this new one comprises a more concise and powerful 46 minutes spread across five songs. Consequently, their brand of tortured & lumbering doom-death (with especially emphasis on the DEATH) bridges both modern and classic sounds, drawing inspiration from a pool as varied as Incantation, Paradise Lost, Virgin Black, Hooded Menace, Mournful Congregation, Candlemass, Disembowelment, Pallbearer, Katatonia, Asphyx, and My Dying Bride. Through labyrinths do those five equally epic songs each move about; Where All of Worth Comes to Wither covers a vast swath of territory, but the sum effect is stultifying and compelling in equal measure.

The esteemed Paolo Girardi lends his signature touch to the album's cover artwork, completely suiting the dark, dreadful emotion of its contents. Malignant Aura will show you Where All of Worth Comes to Wither!

In the meantime, hear the brand-new track "The Pathetic Festival" HERE at Memento Mori's official YouTube channel. Aforementioned cover art and tracklisting are as follows:

Zapowiedź debiutu VELMORTH

 

Today, Purity Through Fire announces December 6th as the international release date for Velmorth's striking debut album, Feral Dominion, on CD format. The vinyl version will follow in the new year.

Velmorth is a new creation of the ever-restless Revenant - renown for such crimes as Sarkrista, Order of Nosferat, and most recently Siechknecht - that sounds unapologetically OLD. Like some lost recording from the notorious Concilium camp during the late '90s, the Feral Dominion debut album spits in the face of modernity with a ripping-yet-ethereal style of black metal high on melancholy, melody, and mysticism. No more but definitely no less, Velmorth is BLACK METAL from ancient times and forgotten realms, days when there were no "safe spaces" and weapons of war & wonder were wielded freely far deep in the underground: "Hail Eternal Warspirit" indeed! And while the form is authentic as fuck, the content - the songwriting itself, from intro on across the next seven shimmering tracks - betrays a depth of understanding ungraspable to most nowadays, the very secrets to the black arts. Roam lawless lands in this Feral Dominion!

In the meantime, hear the brand-new title track "Feral Dominion" HERE at Purity Through Fire's official YouTube channel. Cover artwork, courtesy of Vhan Artworks, and tracklisting are as follows:

Debiut NOVOMUNDO w marcu

 


Italian metal fusionists NOVOMUNDO will release their first full-length album, "The Cursed Cult", on March 1st, 2026.

The video of the first single "The Coven" is now available HERE.

NOVOMUNDO was born near Rome around 2012 with the idea to blend heavy and groovy music textures alongside various influences, rhythms, and instruments from all over the world. After some line-up changes over the years, the band rewrote and refined some of their previous material, releasing "Echoes of Ego": four songs focused on mid-paced ferocity and exotic grooves, with themes exploring modern world decay, primeval instincts, and nightmarish visions.

"The Cursed Cult" represents the band’s first full-length effort: a darker and more crushing take on their renewed sound. The album explores Voodoo culture, its symbols and meanings, interpreted through the lens of contemporary life. Fourteen tracks of ferocity and raw energy blend dark ambient passages with a rotten edge, fusing death-groove and 2000s metal influences enriched by modern tones and crust-core elements.

The album is a concept piece centered on Voodoo — its mysteries, rituals, and symbolic icons. Lyrically, it touches on slavery, prejudice, and death as a way to give value to life, among other themes. Across the tracks, listeners are guided through the pantheon of Voodoo deities, called Loa, exploring their stories and traits as metaphors to convey the album’s core messages. The soundscape of NOVOMUNDO evokes emotional instability and a sense of unease, symbolizing the fear stemming from ignorance and unfamiliarity.

Tracklist:
01 Son of Mawu
02 Deathless
03 Erzulie
04 Bokor
05 The Coven

09 Le Marriage de Brigitte

Recenzja Mortis Dei “The Bringers of Death”

 Mortis Dei

“The Bringers of Death”

Black Flame Rebellion 2025

Historia Mortis Dei, zespołu obecnego na scenie już ponad trzydzieści lat, nigdy nie była usłana różami. Skład zespołu zmieniał się niejednokrotnie, nieraz w dość smutnych okolicznościach, a Mortis Dei nadal wytrwale parli do przodu i robili swoje. Raz lepiej, raz gorzej, ale zawsze z uparciem maniaka. Na dobra sprawę, gdyby kiedyś komuś się chciało, to wyszłaby z tego całkiem pokaźna biografia. (Czytaj dalej...)

 Terror Corpse

„Ash Eclipses Flesh”

Dobber Beverly to człowiek-instytucja, facet, który udzielał się w kilku, poniekąd klasycznych już formacjach, by wymienić choćby wielki Insect Warfare i równie wspaniały Infernal Dominion, ale także całkiem solidne Braced For Nails czy Sect Of Execration.

Numer z nowego krążka NATTRADIO

 

Today, doom-noir Swedes Nattradio reveal the new video "Alright For Now." The track is the second to be revealed from the band's highly anticipated second album, The Longest Night, set for international release on December 12th via Darkness Shall Rise Productions. See & hear Nattradio's "Alright For Now" video in its entirety HERE at Darkness Shall Rise's official YouTube channel.

Rearing its head out of the seemingly endless darkness of the north, Sweden-based Nattradio are an obscure, rather-recently-born with, so far, only one album to their name. If the strength of their second album ,The Longest Night, is anything to go by, Nattradio's obscurity should be over soon, though.

This new album is characterized by a sober and pervasive sense of melancholy that splendidly encapsulates themes of isolation and emotional struggle. Preferably listened to during the night's darkest hours, The Longest Night is a record that gently envelops you.

The Longest Night stands as an evocative journey through the labyrinth of melancholy, offering listeners a soundscape both immersive and introspective. Appearing right in time to accompany you on endless strolls during the most melancholic season, we heartily encourage you to do yourself a favor and obtain a copy of this marvelous album!
