2nd album from 2007 by the Dutch ONHEIL, a furious blast of Blackened Thrash Metal and Death/Thrash packed with razor-sharp riffs, devastating speed and a dark, militaristic aggression. “Storm Is Coming” combines the violence of European Thrash with the coldness and ferocity of Black Metal, resulting in an intense, direct and crushing release overflowing with hatred, chaos and warlike energy from beginning to end. A savage and powerful record that strikes with the force of a storm made of steel and fire. Recommended for fans of AURA NOIR, DESTRUCTION, WITCHERY and NECROPHOBIC.
180-gram vinyl edition with booklet and poster of the 2nd album from 1998 by the Irish PRIMORDIAL, one of the key bands in European Pagan Black Metal. “A Journey’s End” shows the band in an early but already clearly defined stage, combining the rawness of Black Metal with a strong epic and atmospheric component.
The album develops a melancholic and combative sound, with extended structures, emotionally charged riffs and a very distinct identity, laying the foundations of the style the band would later fully establish in their subsequent releases.
Recommended for fans of BATHORY, MOONSORROW, ENSLAVED and SAMAEL.
Vinyl version with gatefold cover of the 2nd album from '04 by this killer german band that plays a very fast Black Metal with influences in the vein of MAYHEM, MARDUK, DARKTHRONE... excellent!!
Debut and only album from 2002 by the American HIDDEN, a unique project featuring musicians associated with bands such as NECROPHAGIA, KRIEG, JUDAS ISCARIOT, SIGH and EXIT-13. “Spectral Magnitude” presents a highly distinctive blend of Progressive Death Metal, Black Metal and Doom Metal, wrapped in a strong scientific, cosmic and existential thematic framework.
Far removed from the usual extreme Metal clichés, the album embraces atmospheric compositions, unconventional song structures and a pronounced experimental spirit, venturing into territories close to the darker and more avant-garde side of Progressive Metal. A largely forgotten rarity that stands out both for its remarkable lineup and its ambitious artistic vision, making it a fascinating cult release for fans of adventurous extreme Metal.
Recommended for fans of SIGH, ARCTURUS, VED BUENS ENDE and SOLEFALD.
