INDESINENCE – Complete Work On New Album, New MP3 Available
UK cult atmospheric death/doom band INDESINENCE have completed work on their much-anticipated new album “Vessels Of Light And Decay”.
Six years after the band’s follow-up to their colossal “Noctambulism” debut (and nine years since we were blown away by their “Ecstatic Lethargy” demo when it came out), “Vessels Of Light And Decay”, while only being the band’s second full-length in their decade-plus year career, shows the obsessiveness and fine attention to detail in which INDESINENCE employ when creating such vast, epic, ocean engulfing monstrous soundscapes. During the listening discourse of “Vessels Of Light And Decay” one will witness how…

THE HOWLING WIND – “Of Babalon” Now Available
*UPDATE: For one week you can stream “Of Babalon” (minus the hidden bonus track on the CD) via Invisible Oranges HERE.
The American black metal triumph known as the new HOWLING WIND album “Of Babalon” is now available to order. The most scathing and devastating HOWLING WIND album to date, “Of Babalon” is a reflection of the fall of man through a kingdom of blood and fire. A true and genuine black metal vision from the American wastelands.
DYSRHYTHMIA – Complete Work On New Album
Instrumental progressive metal masters DYSRHYTHMIA have completed work on their new album, “Test Of Submission”.
With “Test Of Submission” (the band’s sixth full-length album) the trio of Kevin Hufnagel, Colin Marston, and Jeff Eber have delivered their darkest, most devastating and intense album of their 13-year career. An album where the usual DYSRHYTHMIA mannerisms interweave through the band’s distinct style of progressive/jazz-infused rhythms and intense counterpoint, all while providing a new sense of catchiness and even melody. “Test Of Submission” is also an album in which DYSRHYTHMIA will rightfully reclaim the throne in an overbearing scene of acts…

ASH BORER – Complete Work On New Album
Arcata, California’s ASH BORER have completed work on their new full-length album “Cold Of Ages”.
A darker, harsher, and much more immense and searing work than their self-titled debut (and pretty much anything the band has previously crafted), “Cold Of Ages” is a surging and violent foray into time-stretching elongated atmospheric ambient black metal. With “Cold Of Ages” (which features guest vocals from Jessica Way of WORM OUROBOROS on two songs), ASH BORER will be recognized as one of the pinnacle and singular American black metal bands today alongside such distinct entities as Negative Plane, Leviathan, Avichi, The Howling Wind,…
