Void – Jadjow (Brucia Records)

With roots stemming back to the late 90’s Void have always been a bit of a curious beast. Founding member Matt Jarman has through the group’s career had not so much as one foot in the Scandi-weird scene but has… Continue Reading →

Dodheimsgard – Black Medium Current (Peaceville)

It comes as no surprise that Norse pioneers and innovators Dodheimsgard have taken eight years between this and last album ‘A Umbra Omega.’ Even without certain disasters affecting the whole world, they would still have no doubt taken their sweet… Continue Reading →

As Light Dies – The Laniakea Architecture – Volume II (Darkwoods)

I was hooked in here by a simple claim from the PR that this was an album that would appeal to fans of Ved Buens Ende, Arcturus, Fleurety, Dødheimsgard & Virus. Well, that’s my domain for sure and even if… Continue Reading →

Phase IV – Phase IV (Moribund)

I have just done a bit of geeking on Star Trek pages to see what the effects are of setting phasers on level 4 and anything after 3 which is meant to stun for an hour is pretty deadly. “Heat… Continue Reading →

Ornæmental Shine – Deima Panikon (I, Voidhanger)

The search for esoteric and divine knowledge is full of pitfalls and is more likely to lead to madness than true enlightenment. Basically, this is a very shortened summation of new artists Ornæmental Shine are focusing their narrative on. Just… Continue Reading →

Inferno Festival – Rockefeller and John Dee, Oslo Norway 15/4/22

Meslamtaea – Weemoedsklanken (Babylon Doom Cult Records)

I am generally intrigued by anything I can’t pronounce and this Dutch group named after a Mesopotamian God along with twin Lugalirra are apparently associated with Nergal. Nope not that one and forget any similarities to Behemoth here. What I… Continue Reading →

Alkuharmonian Kantaja – Shadowy Peripherals (I, Voidhanger)

What a band name, try saying it without your teeth in and your jaw will lock and you will be eating through a straw for the next couple of months. Jokes aside these 2 Finns and a Swiss man consist… Continue Reading →

Code – Flyblown Prince (Dark Essence)

It seems perfect timing that a week or so after covering one bunch of English eccentrics Void that it is the turn of another, Code now. Both groups started out in similar fashion and indeed there was a crossover point… Continue Reading →

Void – The Hollow Man (Duplicate Records)

London based outfit Void have been knocking around for two decades now and in their early years had strong ties with the Norwegian avant-weird scene. Czral of Ved Buens Ende, Aura Noir etc was a previous drummer Heimoth, Seth, Sinsaenum… Continue Reading →

Inflabitan – Intrinsic (Soulseller Records)

Dependant on the level of your black metal knowledge, Inflabitan may or may not be a name you are accustomed with. Inflabitan has been pulsating within the black landscape for many years now and has been gaining notoriety as a… Continue Reading →

Nachtterror – Judgement (Hypnotic Dirge)

Symphonic Black Metal band Nachtterror…no, hang on, merely using the term “Symphonic Black Metal” does not do Nachtterror justice. OK, as labels go, it’s not a million miles away and yes there are plenty of Symphonic Black Metal elements to… Continue Reading →
