3rd album from 1993 by the American TYPE O NEGATIVE, an iconic and atmospheric work of Gothic Metal and Doom Metal that marked a turning point in the extreme scene of the 90s. “Bloody Kisses” combines dense, heavy riffs with hypnotic melodies, immersive keyboards and Peter Steele’s unmistakable voice, creating a unique blend of darkness, sensuality and melancholy. Featuring standout tracks such as “Black No. 1” and “Christian Woman,” the album manages to balance accessibility and darkness without losing its underground identity. A fundamental, elegant and deeply influential record within Gothic/Doom Metal. Recommended for fans of CANDLEMASS, PARADISE LOST, MY DYING BRIDE and SISTERS OF MERCY.

10” vinyl edition from 2014 by the Swedish UTUMNO, rescuing a devastating live recording captured in 1991 that showcases the band at their rawest, darkest and most destructive stage. “Live In Sweden 1991” is a true time capsule of primitive Swedish Death Metal, featuring a savage and cavernous sound overflowing with rotten riffs, gloomy atmospheres and pure old-school Scandinavian underground violence.

Debut album from 2017 by the British VENOM INC., a band formed by former classic members of VENOM associated with the late 80s and early 90s era. A fierce blast of Speed Metal, Thrash Metal and Blackened Heavy Metal that revives the rawest, most primitive and streetwise essence of VENOM’s legacy.
“Avé” brings together this historic lineup, delivering dirty riffs, direct rhythms and a blasphemous, combative attitude that connects straight back to the spirit of old-school extreme Metal, while featuring a more modern production and a slightly more developed approach.
The album sounds raw, aggressive and uncompromising, functioning as a spiritual continuation of VENOM’s classic chaos rather than a simple tribute. Recommended for fans of VENOM, MANTAR, DESASTER and NIFELHEIM.
9th album from 2025 by the American WHITECHAPEL, a devastating work of modern Deathcore packed with crushing riffs, violent grooves and absolutely relentless aggression. “Hymns In Dissonance” marks the band’s return to their most brutal and direct side, stepping away from the more melodic and atmospheric approach of previous releases to once again embrace rawness, weight and sonic violence.
The album develops a concept centered on a religious sect and its twisted vision of divinity, building a dark and oppressive universe where musical dissonance reflects spiritual corruption and fanatic obsession. Dense riffs, devastating drums and Phil Bozeman’s completely unhinged vocal performance make this a highly impactful release.
A fierce, uncompromising record designed to crush without pause, reaffirming WHITECHAPEL as one of the strongest forces in contemporary Deathcore. Recommended for fans of LORNA SHORE, SUICIDE SILENCE, CARNIFEX and THY ART IS MURDER. [Digipack]
