The great Daemon Worship Productions-label was originally created in Russia, but resides in the U.S. nowadays. The label released quite some remarkable underground stuff in the past, and with this split they just continue that permanent quest for glory and superiority. It has been released as well via S.A.R.S. Productions, with two other bands bringing one track, but being extremely limited, but vinyl-fans will surely adore this specific issue.
For quite some time, Haiku Funeral please / irritate humanity with quite disturbing collections of Aural Creation / Destruction. Via Hikikomiri Records, the band released two albums before, called Assassination In The Hashish Cathedral and If God Is A Drug (seen the titles, this might be somewhat mind-tripping???; so I’d like to suggest you to read the quite unusual and explicit lyrics and you’ll have an idea).
Canadian act Geimhre was formed almost fifteen years ago, and currently consists of (former / current) members of e.g. Wolfhammer Division and Fomorii.
If I am not mistaken, Bestiality are now debuting with this (limited) EP. The Warsaw, Poland-based quartet (drummer Vit Argos, guitar player Galin Soulreaper, bassist Tom Cultcommander and mouth of the netherworld Alberth Dust) did record this nasty piece at the B 65 Studio and the Bestial Sound, produced by the band, and engineered + mixed by Maciej Radecki, and it gets released by one of Poland’s most impressive labels, Old Temple.
I have always had a ‘boontje’, like they say in Flanders, for stuff on Cold Raw’s roster. It’s just the intention of the thought behind each release that makes me (un)happy, non-depending the musical qualities. But now they do really surprise me with the release of Dank Dreiser !!! by French horde Uluun.
I wrote this review pretty recently, after I received this album from Cold Raw Records. This label did re-release the stuff on February 13th 2015. But for one reason or another, it gets re-issued as well in a collaboration in between two other excellent labels, Switzerland’s Asgard Hass Productions and Symbol Of Domination, a sub-division of Satanath Records.
Among Black Hearts is the newest pièce d’art by multi-disciplined artist Ralf Rabendorn: photographer, visual artist, music composer and performer (multi-instrumentalist and vocalist) and studio-guru, but he also runs his own Anti-Music label ContraMusikProduktion, nowadays totally in symbiosis with another great anti-trendy and anti-commercial, open-minded and underground-promotional label, Against it Records.
Slovakian outfit Necroheresy was formed in 2012 by former and current members of e.g. Karpathia, Aeon Winds, Krajiny Hmly, Silva Nigra or Concubia Nocte. To my knowledge, this is the band’s first official release, having a total running time of almost twenty minutes, for five tracks and an intro. The latter, also the title of the album, combines church balls and Gregorian chants with some background noise, and believe me: it sets the tone for quite some intense experience!
I stopped counting the number of Moloch-releases when I came to number 665, I think (a little voice in my head told me to continue, but somehow …), but Sergiy apparently isn’t about to stop writing, recording and releasing stuff under this moniker. For me, and I guess for most human entities trusted with Moloch’s material, this is a dual evolution. At the one hand, I do appreciate about everything I ever heard from this solo-outfit.
One of the things Nele from Consouling Sounds did send to our headquarters is the Deuil-album Shock / Deny, the successor of 2013’s Acceptance / Rebuild. Once again the material deals with life and death, as the title suggests, and this time, more specifically, with the first two levels of the mourning / grief process (the bad news-shock and denial), and feelings of loss, sadness and loneliness.
