Death / Black Metal

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.
