Recenzja Undertaker „Demo(n)s”

 Undertaker

„Demo(n)s”

Black Flame Rebellion 2026 (Re-issue)

Przed chwilą pisałem w tym miejscu o debiutanckim, nagranym po przeszło trzech dekadach, albumie szczecińskiego Undertaker, szczerze zresztą go polecając. Ale to nie wszystko, co wytwórnia dla nas przygotowała. Oto bowiem, do pary z „Epicentrum”, Black Flame Rebellion wypuszcza w świat wczesne nagrania zespołu, w postaci demówki „Hardnesss” z bonusami, oraz materiał promo z roku dziewięćdziesiątego szóstego. (Czytaj dalej...)

 Candarian

„Trepanación”

Memento Mori/Me Saco Un Ojo (2026)

 


W ostatnich latach Kostaryka wypluła w świat kilka bardzo wartościowych, death metalowych tworów, by wymienić choćby Astriferous, Bloodsoaked Necrovoid czy Corpse Garden. Pochodzący ze stolicy tego kraju Candarian śmiało można dopisać do tej listy. (Czytaj dalej...)

Recenzja Vanta „Perpetual Selection”

 Vanta

„Perpetual Selection”

Independent 2026

Vanta to kapela z Australii, która po kilku krótkich wydawnictwach w wersji digital, postanowiła wypuścić debiutancki album. To, co za pośrednictwem „Perpetual Selection” oferują fanom muzyki metalowej, to nowoczesna odmiana deta, w którego tekstury ci trzej panowie wplatają sporą ilość core’a, melodyjności i technicznych zabiegów. (Czytaj dalej...)

Nowy numer od DOODSWENS

 


Dutch black metal ritual Doodswens have released the next official track from their upcoming album, Doodswens, alongside a new music video, dragging the viewer deeper into darkness. 'The Black Flame' ritual was created in collaboration with visual mastermind Mothmeister and is also available in an uncensored version on the label's channel. The new album is due on 17th April, via Svart Records.

About 'The Black Flame', drummer and vocalist I. comments: "A dark ritual unfolds.. A man exposes himself and ignites inner strength. A wanderer, searching for the unknown, following a mythical witch and her acolytes. He witnesses the ritual, scarification and blood sacrifice, and unintentionally becomes part of what he thought he was only observing. The song depicts a dark ritual in which one completely exposes oneself and embraces one’s vulnerability, in order to ignite the inner fire and unleash the hidden power within oneself."

UK SUBS, THE LAST RESORT i DEAD CONGREGATION dołączają do składu HELLS BELLS

 

Szczecin, Poland; 13 March 2026: Hells Bells Festival has unveiled a heavy-hitting new wave of artists for its debut edition on 26-27 June 2026.

Since 2018, this metalcore outfit has been steadily building a fierce reputation across Poland, recently bringing their signature breakdowns and infectious choruses to various stages across the country and abroad, including the giant Czech festival, Rock For People.

VARMIA: Nowy album "lauks" i trasa koncertowa

 


Olsztyńska formacja zapowiada nowy album “lauks” na 27 marca 2026!

Wraz z Black to the roots zapraszamy na trasę koncertową “czas północy”, w której udział wezmą również Drowned In Silver oraz Three Eyes of the Void.
Varmia – pagan black metal, PL

Varmia już od początku działalności wypracowała swój niepowtarzalny styl. Budują swoją twórczość na bazie black metalu, jednocześnie kładąc nacisk na swoje warmińskie korzenie, co w efekcie daje unikalną kompozycję agresywnych i pierwotnych dźwięków ściśle powiązaną z lirycznym konceptem. Pierwszy kontakt z ich twórczością może być zaskoczeniem ze względu na szerokie instrumentarium takie jak liry, rogi i przeróżne perkusjonalia. Tak, to bardzo dziwne, ale w tym “pogańskim black metalu” NIE MA klawiszy. Najnowszy album “lauks” ukaże się nakładem M-Theory Audio, a w Polsce można nabyć go m.in. w Mystic Production oraz na nadchodzących koncertach, do czego szczególnie zachęcamy!

FFO: Enslaved, Satyricon, Kampfar

Three Eyes of the Void – black metal, PL

Three Eyes of the Void oryginalnie powstał na Ukrainie, a od kilku lat stacjonuje w Gdańsku. Debiutancki album to udany kawał melancholijnego i atmosferycznego black metalu, którego inspiracji można szukać wśród takich kapel jak np. Drudkh. Na “The Atheist” usłyszymy dużo przestrzennych fragmentów, ale i sporo surowych, klasycznych riffów. W składzie muzycy Sacrilegium czy Xificurk.

FFO: Furia, Drudkh, Khold

Drowned In Silver – occult/doom rock

Drowned In Silver to nowy twór pod wodzą Statica znanego z Mord’A’Stigmata. Tym razem by nie odpływać zbyt daleko ze swoją macierzystą formacją, wspólnie z muzykami Rosk i Kir, pod nowym szyldem nagrał album “Mothers” (Pagan Records, 2025), który muzycznie podąża ścieżkami wytyczonymi przez The Devil’s Blood, Wardruna czy Dead Can Dance. Na pograniczu occult rocka i transowej ekspresji kwintet tworzy swój własny immersyjny świat, w którym słuchacz co rusz odkrywa nowe wymiary.

FFO: Dead Can Dance, The Devil’s Blood, Mord’A’Stigmata

Zapowiedź debiutu SECTIAN DEFACEMENT

 


Kyiv (UA) - Hostile Consuming Rapture, the debut full-length album from Ukrainian brutal death metal trio, Sectarian Defacement, will be released April 6 on Grave Island Records.

A playthrough video for the album's first single, "Sectarian Ritual (Appalling Oath)," is available at youtu.be/WOb4lF52psI

Following their EP Chaotic Demiurge, the band pushes their sound further with a heavier and more focused approach. The album delivers raw, aggressive brutal death metal with elements of technical riffing, grinding intensity and groove-driven sections that keep the songs tight and memorable. Instead of following the polished “slamcore” trend, Sectarian Defacement deliver something far more extreme and brutal. The sound is raw, heavy and direct, hitting with the force of a blunt weapon.

Lyrically, Sectarian Defacement also touch on darker historical themes, including crimes of the Soviet regime.

If you are into truly heavy and uncompromising brutal death metal, Hostile Consuming Rapture is a release you should not ignore. Sectarian Defacement prove themselves as a band with real intensity and a strong identity.

Hostile Consuming Rapture will be available from Grave Island Records on CD, vinyl, and digital formats.


Pre-order:



Track Listing:
1. Intro
2. Sectarian Ritual (Appalling Oath)
3. Mob Justice
4. Mental Putrefaction

Kolejny singiel od ARCHAIC OATH

 

Today, ancient blackened death metallers Archaic Oath reveal the new video "Into the Temple of Light." The track is the second to be revealed from the band's highly anticipated debut album, Determined to Death and Beyond, set for international release on April 24th via AOP Records. See & hear Archaic Oath's "Into the Temple of Light" video in its entirety HERE at AOP Records' official YouTube channel.

From a fleeting communion in 2005, Lykormas and Arneriach soon felt the ancient pull once more, the irresistible summons of decay, of origins long since festering in shadow. They turned back toward their rotted foundations, seeking to forge sound steeped in elder days and forgotten rites. Seasoned wanderers of the underground, they now also bear the banners of Marche Funèbre and Hemelbestormer, yet the old hunger never slept.

Thus, Archaic Oath was sworn: a covenant to resurrect blackened death metal in its most primal form, as once conjured by Naglfar, Dissection, Unanimated, and kindred spirits. Its veins run thick with the essence of the '90s melodic black metal era, tempered by decades of metal etched into flesh and bone.

The band’s first offering, Determined to Death and Beyond, was hewn during the long, cold winter of 2024-2025, destined to emerge from the void via AOP Records one year hence.

Upon the stage, the circle widens: Archaic Oath will be reinforced by (former) adepts of Beltez, Sumerian Tombs, and Melechesh, ensuring the rite is not merely heard, but invoked.

In the meantime, see & hear the brand-new video "Into the Temple of Light" HERE at AOP Records' official YouTube channel. Also see & hear the previously revealed video for "Forest of Horrors" HERE , also at AOP Records' official YouTube channel. Cover artwork, courtesy of Wesley Dewanckel, and tracklisting are as follows:

2. Wrath Of The Witches

Recenzja Undertaker „Epicentrum”

 Undertaker

„Epicentrum”

Black Flame Rebellion 2026

 


No to ładną nam niespodziankę przyszykowała Black Flame Rebellion, do pary zresztą z grupą szczecińskich grajków. Oto bowiem po, bagatela, trzydziestu czterech latach, z debiutanckim albumem powraca Undertaker. Co prawda w nieco odświeżonej wersji, zarówno jeśli chodzi o skład zespołu (choć trzon pozostał w zasadzie niezmieniony), jak i, przede wszystkim muzycznej, ale jestem przekonany, że niejednemu wydawnictwo to zrobi mocne kuku. (Czytaj dalej...)

Recenzja Anasarca „Achlys”

 Anasarca

„Achlys”

Selfmadegod Records (2026)

 


Niemiecka Anasarca to jedna z tych deathmetalowych nazw, która nigdy nie dorobiła się szacunku na jaki zasługują. Ich pierwsze trzy długograje to kawał naprawdę dobrze zagranego, szybkiego, chłoszczącego dupsko metalu śmierci. Wydany przed blisko dekadą „Survival Mode” w jakiś dziwny sposób nie trafił nigdy do mnie na talerz, ale zapowiadany przed białopodleski Selfmadegod Records, piąty album Niemiaszków zatytułowany „Achlys” trafił tam gdzie powinien. (Czytaj dalej...)

Singiel od TARASK

 


Today, French black metallers Tarask premiere the new track "Evocation VI" at the Atmospheric Black Metal Albums YouTube channel. The track is the second to be revealed from the band's highly anticipated second album, Sitra Ahra, set for international release on April 7th via Antiq. Hear Tarask's "Evocation VI" in its entirety exclusively HERE.

To explain the concept of Sitra Ahra, there is a link with Tarask's debut album, Pharus Morti... On the cover, there was a protagonist discovering a Lovecraftian, industrial port city filled with horrors. Throughout the album, he casts a cynical and disgusted eye on the city, its decadence and futility; it forms an almost-living entity that tries to absorb and corrupt him throughout the album. In the end, it succeeds, and then our protagonist begins his descent into madness, where he seeks salvation in the occult in the last track.

Tarask's second album, Sitra Ahra, deals with consumerism, modern society, and a critique of a world where the individual is forcibly subjected to conformity, leaving them alone with their demons. The new album continues this story, following the same protagonist, who this time, after having barely escaped the cursed city, finds himself alone searching for answers. He therefore decides to delve into the occult and Satanism, in a desperate attempt to conquer his inner demons. It's therefore a more introspective album, even though the lyrics deal a lot with Goetia, qliphoth, etc… In the band's estimation, Tarask are still quite far from classic black metal, with many atmospheric, even depressive passages, and that's also reflected in the lyrics. The cover art has been painted by French artist Sözö Tözö.

Antiq is a label dedicated to the fully coherent concept of making music through sound, image, video, and attitude. They have been putting their entire existence into it since 2009. Over the years, Antiq have been identified as producers of not only perfectly coherent lyrics and themes through music, but also conceptual art and, of course, the manufacturing of beautiful objects. The label tries as much as it can to work with French creators, and if possible, with the smallest and most serious structures.

In the meantime, hear the brand-new track "Evocation VI" exclusively HERE, courtesy of the Atmospheric Black Metal Albums YouTube channel. Also hear the previously revealed "Evocation III" HERE, also at the Atmospheric Black Metal Albums YouTube channel. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:


Tracklisting for Tarask (France)'s Sitra Ahra

2. Evocation II [6:07]
3. Evocation III [7:32]
4. Evocation IV [7:18]

Xtreem Music continues its collaboration with Italian Thrash/ Crossover force URAL, one of the most consistent and hard-hitting acts in today’s European old school scene. Formed in Turin in 2010, the band has steadily built its reputation since their self-titled demo (2011) and the “Wasteland” EP (2013), followed by the full-length albums “Party With the Wolves” (2016) and “Just for Fun” (2019), establishing a sharp and aggressive sound deeply rooted in ’80s Thrash with clear Voivod influences.

In 2022, URAL released the “Cyber Requiem” EP, produced by Davide “BrutalDave” Billia (Antropofagus, Beheaded, Hour of Penance) with artwork by Luca SoloMacello. The same team handled their third full-length album, “Psychoverse” (2023), which marked the band’s signing with Xtreem Music for worldwide promotion and distribution.

After two years of intense live activity across Italy and Europe, URAL completed their fourth album in 2025, once again produced by Davide Billia. Titled “Anthropic Genetic Involution”, the album is scheduled for release in April 2026 through Xtreem Music.

Recenzja / A review of Demonologists with Vainoras „Plantae Arcanvs”

 Demonologists with Vainoras

„Plantae Arcanvs”

Aesthetic Death 2026

 


Ludzie mają w życiu różnego rodzaju fobie. Mniej lub bardziej dziwne. Jedną z, chyba, najbardziej powszechnych jest nyktofobia, czyli strach przed ciemnością. Może dlatego, że sama ciemność jest w sumie niczym… albo wszystkim. Bo jeśli nic w niej widzimy, to nie wiemy, czy czasem jednak coś się w niej się coś kryje. A jeśli coś się kryje, to może to być cokolwiek, co nam wyobraźnia podpowie. (Czytaj dalej... / Continue reading)

Recenzja Midryasi’s Kult „Italian Dark Sound”

 Midryasi’s Kult

„Italian Dark Sound”

Dying Victims Productions 2026

To świeży projekt z włoskiem ziemi, ale stoją za nim starzy wyjadacze z takich heavy i doom metalowych kapel jak Midryasi i DoomSword. Na „Italian Dark Sound”, który jest ich debiutanckim albumem, panowie szyją coś, czego nie da się ostatecznie skategoryzować. Jest to swoista mieszanka, złożona z NWOBHM, doom’a, bluesa, do których dołożono odrobinę stonerowych rytmów oraz ciężkiego rocka z lat siedemdziesiątych. (Czytaj dalej...)

Winylowe wznowienie PARRICIDE "Patogen" pod koniec miesiąca

 


Przedsprzedaż właśnie ruszyła na stronie DP - www.deformeathing.com

Data wydania: 27.03.2026

Nieco ponad 20 lat od oryginalnego wydania w wersji CD i nieco ponad 10 lat od koncertu którym zespół zakmnął ostatni rozdział swojej aktywności. Pozostała masa wrażeń, wspomnień i nagrań.

Jednym z nich jest "Patogen", szósty pełny album zespołu który zbudowany jest wciąż na solidnym death metalowym fundamencie, a który wpuszcza do swojej muzyki jeszcze więcej grindcore'owego szaleństwa.

16 utworów w nieco ponad 30 minut, wiemy z czym mamy do czynienia.

Deformeathing Prod. przygotowało specjalne wydanie na vinylu. "Patogen" ukaże się po raz pierwszy w tym formacie.

Album wydany na licencji udzielonej przez zespół Parricide oraz Mad Lion Records.

Zawartość audio została poddana masteringowi (Haldor Grunberg - Satanic Audio) pod wymagania formatu vinylowego.

O oprawę graficzną (bazując na materiałach z epoki) zadbało Blackteammedia.

Wznowienie NEOLITH "Igne Natura Renovabitur Integra"

 


Przedsprzedaż właśnie ruszyła na stronie DP - www.deformeathing.com

Data wydania: 28.03.2026

Są albumy, które starzeją się godnie. Są też takie, które z czasem obrastają legendą. Igne Natura Renovabitur Integra – debiutancki manifest zespołu Neolith – należy do obu tych kategorii.

Pierwotnie wydany w 1998 roku nakładem Dogma Records, album był kulminacją pierwszego okresu działalności zespołu i ostatecznym ukształtowaniem ich wczesnego stylu: gęstego, bluźnierczego death/doom metalu przesyconego nihilizmem, metafizycznym niepokojem i atmosferą dekadencji. Choć późniejsze lata przyniosły bardziej brutalne i techniczne oblicze grupy, to właśnie tutaj bije serce ich najczarniejszej wizji – bezkompromisowej, mrocznej i głęboko symbolicznej.

Materiał powstawał na przełomie 1997 i 1998 roku w sanockim Manek Studio, a za konsoletą stanął Arek „Malta” Malczewski (znany m.in. ze współpracy z Behemoth czy Decapitated). Mastering powierzono Grzegorzowi Piwkowskiemu w High End Studio. Zespół wszedł do studia z jasno określoną wizją – zarówno brzmieniową, jak i ideową – tworząc konceptualne dzieło, w którym muzyka i teksty splatają się w jedną, nihilistyczną narrację.

Już w momencie premiery album spotkał się z entuzjastycznym przyjęciem krytyków oraz undergroundowej publiczności. Liczne recenzje, wywiady i koncerty – również poza granicami Polski – ugruntowały jego status.

Dziś, niemal trzy dekady później, płyta wciąż brzmi zaskakująco świeżo. Jej atmosfera nie straciła nic ze swojej mocy, a zawarte na niej teksty pozostają aktualne – jakby zapisane poza czasem. To zapis epoki, ale i dzieło, które nie poddaje się erozji lat.

Reedycja przygotowana przez Deformeathing Production to hołd dla jednego z kamieni milowych krajowego undergroundu.

To powrót do czasów, gdy polski metal rodził się w cieniu dymu, z dala od reflektorów, karmiony pasją, ideą i bezkompromisową autentycznością.

Dla tych, którzy byli tam od początku – będzie to podróż w głąb lat 90., do momentu, gdy underground miał własny zapach, ciężar i temperaturę.

Dla nowych słuchaczy – brama do poznania historii jednej z najbardziej zasłużonych formacji polskiej sceny ekstremalnej.

Ogień oczyszcza. Natura odradza się w płomieniach.

Czas ponownie wejść w krąg.

Zupełnie nowa szata graficzna przygotowana przez Total Death Art.

Mastering to dzieło Haldora Grunberga (Satanic Audio).

VOIDTHRONE wracają z nową płytą

 


Seattle (WA) - Dissonant Blackened Death Metal quartet, Voidthrone, returns with Dreaming Rat, their most unhinged and trenchant record yet!

The album's first single, "First Blood," has been premiered by Toilet ov Hell. A dissonant death metal meat-slab that dissolves and mutates into a blackened, transcendent collapse, click to stream it at:


Structured as a three-part cosmic death ritual, Dreaming Rat follows a triptych of parallel arcs: a solar system burning through its lifespan, a civilization collapsing under its own complexity, and a parasite replicating itself across language, culture, and flesh. The band trades some of the prior atmospheric murk for a more immediate, frenetic mix—closer, sharper, and meaner.

Vocalist Zhenya Frolov delivers his most insane performance yet, retching through death-metal lows, black-metal shrieks, and ritualistic howls as the album spirals toward extinction. The listener is invited to drift calmly and unflinching through the maelstrom, like the dreaming rat on the album’s cover.

Dreaming Rat will be released on May 8.

Pre-order:

Track Listing:
Arc 2 - The vital present. A universe, a civilization, an idea flourishing into a promised infinity.
1. II-I. Homeless Animal
2. II-II. Morbid Seagull
3. II-III. Ren Omega

Arc 1 - The hopeful past. A maelstrom of violence and optimism.
4. I-I. Bergen
5. I-II. Dreaming Rat
6. I-III. First Blood

Arc 3 - The silent future. An extinguished, lonely death of the physical, spiritual, and cognitive.
7. III-I. Surfing the Abyss
8. III-II. The Dying Squid
9. III-III. Worm Spiral

A review of Aggressive Perfector “Come Creeping Fiends”

 Aggressive Perfector

“Come Creeping Fiends”

Dying Victims Prod. 2026

 


When it comes to Dying Victims, it's clear that we're traveling in a time machine to the metal Middle Ages. In other words, in our times, somewhere around the 1980s, because it's rare for this label to release bands inspired by a later period. Aggressive Perfector is no exception. The band comes from the British Isles, and “Come Creeping Fiends” is their second full-length album. (Continue reading)

ABUSER was formed in Wroclaw (Poland) in 2018, the band has built a reputation in the underground for their violent, no-mercy approach to Thrash Metal, first revealed with their 2019 demo released on cassette by Destruktion Records.

After a forced hiatus, ABUSER returned in late 2023 with a complete lineup and a renewed hunger for destruction. Throughout 2025, the band focused on forging their debut full-length album, sharpening their sound into a relentless weapon of speed, aggression, and raw intensity.

Nowy ILDFAR za miesiąc

 


On April 12th internationally, Purity Through Fire is proud to present Ildfar's highly anticipated fourth album, Der ligger et land, on digipack CD format.

Norway's Ildfar are something of an enigma. The band formed all the way back in 1994, by vocalist / multi-instrumentalist Favn, but left behind only one demo in 2003. However, upon reactivating in 2018, Ildfar began blazing a trail of ancient-days Norse black metal with a quick succession of albums. So pure, so cold, this trio of records landed on such esteemed labels as Northern Silence and Wolfspell, but now under the banner of Purity Through Fire, Ildfar are prepared to blaze a new "old" trail.

Witness Der ligger et land. Immediately, Ildfar's fourth album distinguishes itself with the much-more-measured mid-tempo pace and, most strikingly, largely clean vocals. However, before any worries of a slackening of black metal ethos arise, one need only listen to Der ligger et land to understand that Favn is picking up the torch left behind by Isengard's Høstmørke and expanding the (old, icy) canvas in compellingly new ways. To be sure, there's plenty of Ildfar's previous, strictly-Norse fire here - just the recording alone evokes a solemn nostalgia for those forgotten realms - but Favn is stretching apart those sensations in a manner that's mystical, mesmerizing, and AMAZING. Also to be sure, there've been other sympatico souls who've likewise reinvigorated Isengard's template - namely, the axis of LIK, Lönndom, and Ehlder as well as Sweden's stalwart Grift - but Ildfar's songwriting here is noticeably more melodic, utilizing clean(er) guitars to stunning effect, and overall textures that suggest stargazing rather than forest-roaming.

Whatever way you arrive at Der ligger et land, it's guaranteed you'll be possessed to press "play" over and over again, luxuriating deeper into those textures and finding ever more new details with each spin. In short, Ildfar have delivered an unsuspecting masterpiece.

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