CD

The band’s self-titled 4th fulllength studio album has everything that defines True Norwegian Black Metal, from the ice cold all Norwegian melodies to catchy and foul necroriffs.

All hail the kings of denim! Since the mid-90s, Norway’s Nocturnal Breed has spread terror and destruction through the metal scene with their extreme take on blackened thrash metal, and they still do with their 7^th album, “Carry the Beast”.
Nocturnal Breed is now a trio consisting of S.A. Destroyer, T. Terror and I. Maztor, but they’re shredding like ever before, and have even thrown in some awesome old-school heavy metal in the mix. So, there’s a small evolution in the sound, without straying too much from the path. This is pure Nocturnal Breed delivering it yet again for all the Speed Metal Legions!

This album mirrors a lot of the darker sides of humanity that has crept to the forefront these last 2-3 years. And it shows in the intensity and vileness bleeding through this composition. Recorded without modern equipment, the sound of this creation is mercilessly unbridled and raw as a war wound. A wholehearted look back at what inspired the band and the extreme metal scene. As the band says: Give’em Hell, take no shit from anyone, and Carry the Beast with splendour your own way!

METAL TO THE BONE!

Since its inception in 2004, Blodhemn has been working tirelessly to further the sound of Black Metal with a distinct concept and an aggressive approach. Sole member Invisus has again played all instruments and done the vocals for the fourth Blodhemn album, “Sverger Hemn”.

“Sverger Hemn” is a result of a long production time and years worth of songwriting. There are several red threads through the whole Blodhemn catalogue, with topics like drowning, to be taken by the sea and themes centered around the area Holmengraa on Fedje in Norway, which are continued on “Sverger Hemn”. The observant ones will find threads in both the musical and the visual elements. “Sverger Hemn” is true to the distinctive aggressive Blodhemn sound, but on a couple of tracks Invisus has gone out of his comfort zone with different kinds of vocals and keyboards, thus experimenting with exploring elements and themes. The result is a splendid mix of black metal and thrash, seasoned with rock’n’roll.

The drums were recorded in 2020 at Conclave & Earshot Studio, and the rest of the instruments and vocals were done in Over Even Studio. Mix and mastering were done in Crosound Studio by Øystein G. Brun.

As one of the most unique bands coming out of Norway, Virus has built themselves a big following in both the metal and rock scene throughout the world. From the debut album, “Carheart”, in 2003, they’ve developed their otherworldly style for over a decade

The progressive and experimental extreme metal band Vulture Industries, is ready with their 2nd album called “The Malefactor’s Bloody Register”. With excellent reviews all over the European press, the band has been on several tours all over the European continent.

Their debut, “The Dystopia Journals”, got excellent reviews all over the European press, which resulted in several tours alongside bands like Dark Fortress, Taake, Helheim, Atrox, Panchrysia, and more, as well as festival appearances at Inferno Festival and others. As a live band, they’ve got great reviews for their technical and tight performance, and they really stick out with the weird antics of vocalist Bjørnar Nilsen. The band has a unique and special sound, which is both very complex and at the same time catchy and to the point. With this 2nd album, they’ve really made their style their own. “The Malfactor’s Bloody Register” was recorded at Conclave & Earshot Studios with Bjørnar Nilsen, and was mastered by Brian Gardner (Isis, NIN, David Bowie). The album also features a guest performance by Herbrand Larsen (Enslaved) on hammond organ, and performers on cello, viola and saxophone. With a highly energetic live show, a very distinct sound and the manic performance of vocalist Bjørnar Nilsen, this is a band you won’t miss out on.

Recorded and mixed in Conclave & Earshot studios, Bergen, Norway in 2009 and 2010.
Mastered at Bernie Grundman Mastering, Hollywood, USA.

The Vulture Industries “The Malefactor’s Bloody Register” CD, is a CD in jewelcase cover with booklet.

Man was meant to replace God as the universal measure. The events of the 20th and 21st centuries, however, have brutalized the creature once known as Man beyond recognition. There is no going back. We are left with an erased image, a misnomer—a sacred animal wasting away in a profane world. Man is both insufficient and irreplaceable.

Man Under Erasure is a musical exploration of this new, uncertain universe, where the last remnants of humanist hopes and dreams have been reduced to embers—barely legible carvings etched into eroding earth. Our trust in ourselves has been misplaced. Everything weever knew will be erased.

Feversea is a post-metal band from Oslo, Norway drawing on influences from black metal, sludge metal and shoegaze. FEVERSEA’s music lies at the intersection where the ferocity of black metal meets with ritualistic and ethereal soundscapes. Musically, their debut album Man Under Erasure draws from various forms of metal while incorporating influences from neofolk and post-punk. The album is melancholic, despairing, and cathartic. Haunting and melodic while maintaining a strong sense of structure with recognizable riffs—an element often lacking in atmosphere-driven music.

Fluctuating between song and scream, the voice is both from beyond and from below. Lyrically, it is deeply personal but delivered through impersonal images, parables, and riddles—like a spiritualist or Orphic medium carrying messages from beyond. A muffled scream buried under several inches of ice. The album begins in sardonic despair and ends with uneasy, desperate acceptance.

“Man Under Erasure” tracklist:

1. Man Under Erasure
2. Murmur Within the Skull of God
3. New Creatures Replace Our Names
4. Decider
5. Sunkindling
6. Invocation
7. Until It Goes Away
8. Kindred Spirit

The third album from Oslo-based Doom/Psych trio Superlynx is both a continuation of what they’ve been doing before and a further development into moods not previously explored. The tragic death of a close family member has also made a deep mark on the album.

The title of the album is a reference to Jimi Hendrix ́ way of looking at music. “He said “We call our music ‘electric church music..Because it’s like a religion to us.” And that is much like how we feel about ours. In music we find so much of what people seek in temples, religions or other spiritual forms – strength to endure trials, peace of mind, ecstasy, safety, hope, community, joy, transcendence etc. In the process of writing our third album this truth only become clearer to us. Music is our temple”

The album is mixed by multiple Grammy Award winning producer Marc Urselli, who has done sound for Nick Cave, Mike Patton, Lou Reed, Keith Richards, The Black Crowes and countless more.

A new breed of sonic, sludge-laden force from the mixed temperate rainforest and concrete jungle of Portland, Oregon has arrived! With a love for all that is brutal and nerdy from Dungeons & Dragons to cult horror films, extreme metal and video games, and a shared hatred of dehumanization and groupthink, VIRAL TYRANT's influences of classic Pacific Northwestern doom, sludge, thrash, black metal, doom, grunge, prog, and more have been woven cohesively together to forge a sound of complex, yet grounded blackened, psychedelic sludge. Sure to satisfy any headbanger, their goal is simple: spread their strain of metal for all to enjoy.

The sonic bulldozer Terromania was formed in the summer of 2018 in Jyvaskyla, Finland to deliver intense, dynamic and ambitious modern Metal influenced by artists such as Lordi, Devin Townsend, Van Halen and Ghost, while also taking inspiration from modern pop and jazz and adding a fresh perspective to the genre.

Since their formation in 2011, Gin Lady has quietly carved out their own space in the rock world, one where the echoes of classic ’70s rock are alive and well, but still very much alive in their own hands. Hailing from northern Sweden, the band has always been about more than just the music. It’s about the vibe—the tight harmonies, the groove, and that unmistakable chemistry between the four of them. Their catalogue up to now, including ‘Gin Lady’ (2011), ‘Mother’s Ruin’ (2013), ‘Call the Nation’ (2015), ‘Electric Earth’ (2017), ‘Tall Sun Crooked Moon’ (2019), and ‘Camping with Bohdi’ (2021), has been a steady evolution. Each album feels like a step forward, but it never loses that reckless charm that makes their sound so compelling.

With their new album ‘Before The Dawn of Time’ set for release in February 2025, Gin Lady is finally letting us in on what’s coming next—and ‘The Paramount’ is just the tip of the iceberg. If this track is any indication, this might be the band’s boldest statement yet. Recorded live at Sweden’s revered Svenska Grammofonstudion, ‘The Paramount’ takes everything we know and love about Gin Lady and tightens it up, while adding new layers of texture and complexity. It’s a little more psychedelic, a little more expansive, but still rooted in that same raw, earthy sound that made us fall in love with them in the first place.

Temple of Discord began as Mattias Marklund's personal creative outlet in 2017. Mattias was writing songs for Aska (later known as Wytch) at the time, but some compositions felt too personal and diverged from the band's established style. Rather than setting those tracks aside, he channeled them into a solo project, which would eventually become Temple of Discord. With the help of drummer Benny Hägglund (Vintersorg, Fission), Mattias recorded the first demo track, "The Calling". While he had been playing guitar in bands since the late 1980s, this marked the first time he stepped into the vocalist role, adding another layer of intimacy and individuality to his music.

Fast forward to the pandemic years: Wytch entered a period of dormancy, and fellow guitarist Niklas Viklund revisited Mattias's Temple of Discord material. Struck by the strength and uniqueness of the songs, Niklas encouraged Mattias to transform the project into a full-fledged band. The two quickly brought in bassist Jon Ericson Warnoff, with whom Niklas had previously played in Stardog. Recognizing Jon’s chemistry and talent, they knew he was the perfect fit for the group. With Benny unavailable due to scheduling conflicts, the search began for a drummer who could complete the lineup. They found their match in Peter Melender, whom Mattias’s father recommended as "the best goddamn drummer in town." With the lineup solidified, Temple of Discord was ready to take the next step.

Temple of Discord entered the studio and recorded several tracks that caught the attention of Ripple Music CEO Todd Severin, who signed them for the February 2025 release of their studio debut album "In The Ashes". A new gate of heaviness has opened...

Each of the quarters of the album contain their own narrative that ties into the one advancing and the one preceding which then loops back to the beginning ad infinitum to create a story that is both self contained and expansive. As you press deeper into the lyrics and poetry there are mise en abymes and other narrative mysteries to be discovered. ‘In All Her Forms’ is the evolution of the traditional concept album into something much more multi-faceted and nouveau.

There is music, poetry, thunderous doomy riffs, haunting ballads, expressive piano instrumental and all illustrated with the beautiful album photography shot on location in the Holy Island by music and fashion photographer Ian West.

Mastered by Esben Willems at Studio Berserk.

Majestic Mountain Records are pleased to announce the signing of Copenhagen’s brutal, hardcore sludge merchants, Dirt Forge! 🔥

‘Interspheral’ will be released digitally, and on CD and cassette on the 11th of November. Vinyl to follow soon and information on that will be forthcoming!

Majestic is thrilled to welcome Dirt Forge into the fold and we are extremely proud of the incredible release they have produced which will, of course, receive the full Majestic treatment.

Dirt Forge have hammered out a monster of an album with ‘Interspehral,’
and throughout each of the seven tracks, their sludgy crucible boils over with molten aggression flowing pyroclastically from a gorgeously chaotic and heaving mass of hardcore, post-metallic heart.
Relentlessly bludgeoning waves of torrential tone and chugging, rhythmic pressure ebb and flow effortlessly between righteously thrilling riffing and abyssally cavernous walls of mercilessly crushing atmosphere in both scale and mood but also in the textural sense, exceptionally positioned between bestially brutal bashing teetering on the edge of utter collapse and near-constant, deeply discordant vocal animosity.
This is THE heavy, folks.

Interspheral comes in
Blue and yellow merge with green splatter
180-gram heavyweight vinyl
Single sleeve with 3mm spine
Full color insert
Black poly-lined inner sleeve
Protective plastic sleeve
33 rpm heaviness

three is the magic number as both sets of trios enter a trifecta of sizeable trade-off with the help of esteemed Stockholm label, Majestic Mountain Records.

Recorded live as is their custom, and mixed and mastered by Haldor Grunberg at Satanic Audio, ''𝔖𝔲𝔯𝔯𝔬𝔲𝔫𝔡𝔢𝔡 𝔅𝔶 𝔙𝔲𝔩𝔱𝔲𝔯𝔢𝔰' is a weighty glimpse into the inner world of Jointhugger and deeply reflects the daily chaos of existence and creation.
