The debut full-length from California black metal band APPARITION “Feel” is out now and available to stream everywhere (vinyl a little delayed unfortunately and will hopefully be in hand sometime late-Nov).  Towering progressive doomy death metal with hammering colossal crawling grooves, refined escalating riffs and lurching, thick, and bludgeoning calculated chord progressions while tethering into the realms of strangeness and the anomalous.  Limited longsleeve available HERE.

The debut album from New Zealand death/black metal entity THE TEMPLE is set for release on CD/Digital Nov 19 (vinyl sometime early 2022).  THE TEMPLE, an aural entity comprised of P.K. (guitars, bass, vocals) and J.W. (drums, lyrics), play viscerally morphing and shape-shifting death/black metal of an esoteric nature.  Their self-titled debut album is an impenetrable sonic monolith that encompasses six immense tracks of tectonic shifting, inharmonious, honed and focused death/black metal of crushing weight, searing ambience and immense magnitude.

With the sprawling audial tapestry THE TEMPLE have laid out with their debut, the conveyance of this vision…

The wondrous new FOTOCRIME album “Heart Of Crime” is out now on CD/LP and can be currently streamed everywhere

On his third full-length “Heart Of Crime”, R. Patterson continues to explore what he refers to as “electric Southern romanticism.” It’s an album that throbs with pulsing synths, hammering drum machines, and economic guitar hooks. Where so many artists have leveraged these tools towards stern stoicism, Patterson had a different objective for their emotional resonance.

California death metal band APPARITION follow their “Granular Transformation” 7” with their megalithic debut LP “Feel” set for release on Oct 22nd.

Towering progressive doomy death metal with hammering colossal crawling grooves, refined escalating riffs and lurching, thick, and bludgeoning calculated chord progressions. But “Feel” goes even more beyond such a crushing abstract as it explores APPARITION’s auditory design where this deep expression of pure death possesses idiosyncratic uncanny musical affectations with engaging ambience and intrigue. One that tethers into the realms of strangeness and the anomalous; an album more influenced by drummer/vocalist Andrew and guitarist Miles’ past jazz studies…
