Hiidenhauta, who plays folk-influenced black metal, has released his third studio album through Inverse Records. Hiidenhauda's third album, “Riivin”, is most easily compartmentalized in folk-influenced black metal, but above all it is a balanced ensemble of Finnish devil that exudes the band's ability to regenerate and transform. Once again, Hiidenhauta is like a story he created: earthy, raw, angry, but also sounding like the endless beauty of nature.

Fjord was created in 2019 by Archon von Fjord from Onda Makter. A solo project that is a homeage to nature and paganism. Join the journey!

The Somberlain is the debut album by Swedish black metal band Dissection, released on December 3, 1993. It proved to be a highly influential release for both black metal and melodic death metal. The band dedicated the album to Euronymous, who had been murdered in August the same year. This is the only album that features the band's original lineup. The artwork was created by Kristian 'Necrolord' Wåhlin. The album was composed and arranged between 1989 and 1993, and was recorded between March 1 and 6 of 1993.

Dissection's Storm of the Light's Bane is the unquestionable high-water mark for one of melodic Scandinavian death metal's founding acts. The last full-length completed before vocalist/guitarist Jon Nödtveidt was convicted of murder (thus ending the career of Dissection), the 1996 offering is combined with the EP Where Dead Angels Lie on this 2002 Nuclear Blast dual release. Storm of the Light's Bane is a frightening and highly accomplished effort. The performances and material are first-rate, perhaps even revolutionary – if such a phrase could be apply to music with such a limited appeal. The five selections from Where Dead Angels Lie aren't anything figuratively or literally new. An unremarkable demo version of the title track is followed by a couple remixes and two new cuts that generally aren't up to the standard set on Storm of Light's Bane.

It has been a long eight year stretch between releases for Umeå, Sweden’s black metal nihilists NAGLFAR, but despite the eight year wait, the band hasn’t been resting on their laurels. Like any slumbering beast, NAGLFAR have returned from their respite ferocious and hungry with their seventh full length album “Cerecloth” which is due for a worldwide release on May 8th , 2020. Recorded and mixed by NAGLFAR guitarist Marcus Norman at Wolf’s Lair Studio, and mastered by Dan Swanö at Unisound, the underlying musical and lyrical themes of “Cerecloth” were succinctly and confidently described by guitarist Andreas Nilsson: “The usual death and destruction.”

Since 1997, HYEMS have been celebrating Black Metal, which, oscillating between hymns and disharmony, is repeatedly thwarted by a snotty punk attitude. The band resists the commercially promising temptations of modern styles and reflects in their music on what once tipped the scales for their foundation: the fascination for Black Metal of the 90s. Free of any aspirations for success, vanity and any expectations of the future.With "Anatomy of Failure" the band presents their ninth release, which "belongs by far to the best we have ever done" as frontman A.E.J. emphasizes.
