The new EVOKEN album “Hypnagogia” (out Nov 09) is now available for pre-order on CD/2xLP/Digital via the EVOKEN pre-order portal HERE.  Listen to the new track “Valorous Consternation” below.

“Hypnagogia” is the band’s sixth LP, their first in six years since their landmark “Atra Mors” album, and is a towering monolith that develops and redefines the band’s sound that will only strengthen their position within the death/doom metal hierarchy where EVOKEN have always reigned in their 25 year tenure.

Known as one of the founding fathers of the American death/funeral doom metal scene, New Jersey’s EVOKEN have been a long-standing pillar over the band’s 25 year pillage. Their new full-length album “Hypnagogia” (to be released on CD/2xLP/Digital on Nov 9) is the band’s sixth LP, their first in six years since their landmark “Atra Mors” album, and is a towering monolith that develops and redefines the band’s sound that will only strengthen their position within the death/doom metal hierarchy where EVOKEN have always reigned.

“Hypnagogia” is an expression of doom metal artistry where the listener will bear witness how…

Seattle death metal trio HISSING have announced their debut LP “Permanent Destitution” set to be released on CD/LP/Digital on Oct 26th.

HISSING engage in dark, dissonant, cacophonous, inverted death metal noise and with their debut LP, “Permanent Destitution”, the three-piece have created a nihilistic vision of deranged otherworldly audial pandemonium. A soundscape of pure enveloping darkness and unrelenting chaos, “Permanent Destitution” deconstructs and builds itself through the walls and layers of pummeling audial turmoil and disarray generated through twisted angular guitar work and fretboard annihilation, surgically cold yet constructed and calculated death march drum ornamentations and monolithic bass pulsations that…

You can also listen to the “Drift” EP, a precursor to their upcoming debut LP out this fall which will be a co-release with True Panther Sounds, on Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube.

BLISS SIGNAL strips down extreme metal’s mechanical repetitive elements to their essence, refined to a sharp, singular and powerful metallic core, swathed in expansive synths and ethereal textures. Blast beats are simulated…

The new GEVURAH release “Sulphur Soul” will be unleashed on CD/Vinyl/Digital on Sept 28th. It features four epic hymns of vitriolic, dynamic, religious black metal warfare resulting in the most intense and punishing GEVURAH material yet.  “Sulphur Soul” serves its purpose as a reflection on how the Montreal-based duo (consisting of vocalist/guitarist/drummer X.T. and guitarist/bassist A.L.) encircle their ever expansive sonic palette of ritual with a new heightened sense of brutality and atmosphere, all while upholding the dark essence and the transcendental spiritual aura that surrounds their being.

Recorded, mixed, mastered, and fully realized by X.T. in his Studio…

Boise, Idaho’s INFERNAL COIL have completed work on their debut LP “Within A World Forgotten” set to be unleashed on CD/LP/Digital on Sept 14th and is now available for pre-order on said formats through Merchtable, Bandcamp, and our EU Store. Brutal, unrelenting, transcendental ashen death metal, “Within A World Forgotten” is an artistic expression mired in vast dark atmosphere through the many layers of sound, ambience, and noise that cast an enveloping shadow throughout the 36-minutes that encompass this overbearing work.

The band’s 2014 demo “Burning Prayer of Infinite Hatred” gave listeners a glimpse into the fury…
