Black Pyramid - Self Titled 2xLP Vinyl

Black Pyramid play doom with the rumbling down-tuned tones of stoner metal gods like Sleep, Electric Wizard, and High On Fire, but with the epic arrangements of old school metal and doom acts such as Black Sabbath, Pentagram, and The Obsessed. Add to the sonic brew perfectly executed forays into vintage psych and progressive rock, along with the apocalyptic lyrical ravings about war, the occult, and general alienation, and you've got an accurate picture of what the band is all about. Prepare to be crushed by the weight of the Black Pyramid

KINGS DESTROY is a thundering unit with a name taken from "an infamous late 70's / early 80's Bronx based graffiti crew" and a gang of musicians whom Decibel astutely deemed "a literal who's-who of the New York underground stoner doom scene."

Saint Vitus - Heavier Than Thou 2xLP Vinyl

Saint Vitus are gods of doom. They sounded roughly the way Black Sabbath should have after their first few albums. Heavier Than Thou is a compilation album of their best work from the Reagan era. Unlike the aforementioned president, this is a first-rate album.

It features nearly all of Born Too late, and a few songs each from Saint Vitus, Hallow's Victim and Mournful Cries. This is some dark and sad sounding stuff, both in lyrics and instrumentation. “Born Too Late” is about alienation, “Dying Inside” is about alcoholism and “Shooting Gallery” is about intravenous drug abuse. These are just some of the more notable examples of tales of sorrow set to Sabbath-style riffs here. This was definitely not the feel-good album of the year. Unfortunately, it doesn't have Burial at Sea. This is a sad omission, but there are still plenty of great songs.

Two vocalists perform on this album, Wino and Scott Reagers. Wino has the more traditional style, and Reagers sounds a bit like a lounge singer. This isn't necessarily a bad thing. It adds a unique vibe. The rhythm guitar parts are classic doom and are quite enjoyable. The tone is quite nasal, featuring plenty of low-end and midrange without sounding muddy. It's aggressive and sinister sounding, without going overboard. The lead work is competent, but sometimes seems bland when compared to the excellent riffing that serves as the meat in the sonic sandwich. The bass and drum work is good, but isn't as refined and funky as the early Sabbath albums. The bass doesn't usually stray too far from what the guitar is doing. It mainly seems to be there for support, and not a significant part of the song structure. There aren't a lot of drum fills here, but rather a steady pounding to keep the beat. It would've been nice if Vitus added a little more focus to these aspects, but the guitar work is so good I suppose it's not so bad that the bass and drums add reinforcement, as opposed to accompaniment.

This album documents the bridge between the beginnings of doom and the more modern doom of today. It's an important piece of doom history, and a pleasure to listen to. --- SoylentGreenIsPeople




Unsilence - Under A Torn Sky Vinyl LP

Slow, heavy epic doom metal with magnificent clean vocals. Unsilence is from the UK and this is their debut full-length album after many demos and MCD´s.

Exploding Rubber Band - Magic Train 7" Vinyl

Exploding Rubber Band is a Norwegian four-piece who play classic 70s-rock. The group`s music is founded in a brand of progressive rhythm & blues, where heavy slide guitars and harmonicas, flanked by an explosive rhythm section, are used to push the music into the realms of funk, prog and early heavy metal. Their chief sources of inspiration can be found in groups such as the Alice Cooper Band, Deep Purple, The Faces and The Who, which is also evident in their live performance.

White Witch Canyon - Self Titled Vinyl LP

Lost heavy stoner rock highlight from 2008 finally released on delicious vinyl!

To be honest, I did not have `Get my ass kicked` on my schedule this morning. I figured I`d just sip some coffee and maybe take a nap. But then this bruiser dropped on my lap and the whole fuckin` room started spinning. Forty-something minutes later and I`m covered in sweat and bleeding from the forehead. The awesomely named White Witch Canyon is the spangly new project of singer/guitar wrangler/buzz king Eric Hagen, formerly of stoner rock champs Greenhouse Effect. As such, this is not a huge departure from that band: it`s acid-eating Sab-ra cadabra, full of thick, meaty riffs that sound like wooly mammoths plowing through walls of blood-stained snow, bare-chested, flared denim vox, and lava-lamping super jams that practically beg you to play `em on a Camaro`s blown-out cassette deck. Majestic shit, man. If Monster Magnet have let you down these past few years - and let`s face it, they have - then I encourage to sluice down White Witch Canyon. It`s a fuckin` trip, Jack. ---Sleaze - White Witch Canyon Review

Wight - Wight Weedy Wight Vinyl LP + 7"

The world is a fast moving place, fraught with haste and impatience. Wouldn't it be nice, if at least occasionally the rotation of this earth would decelerate? Wight provide a soundtrack for this: With atmospheric slow-motion tunes they celebrate an authentic black sabbath which makes even the Beelzebub himself turn trippy-psychedelic. Just like a cathedral, their epic sound rises aloft. But do not fear: Just shortly before the world threats so finally perish, Kyuss and comrades come around on a train and re-quicken this desert. Wight are far, far afield and some smoking heads are guaranteed for friends of Saint Vitus or Goatsnake as well as for the followers of Earth or 35007.

Green & Wood - Self Titled Vinyl LP

What really fuels Green & Wood's ascent from the Iommi-worshipping throng is the group's technical prowess and tendency to indulge in erratic and turbulent spouts of proggy wizardry in between the colossal trances of the more familiar metallic territory. Recalling lost 70's classics as Socrates Drank the Conium, Randy Holden's Population II, and Jerusalem's eponymous heavy prog masterpiece, these exercises in prog-infused hard rock suggest a nuanced understanding of heavy metal's roots far exceeding the extent of their contemporaries. Green and Wood clearly doesn't drink from the same bongwater as the rest of the doom droves.

Fleshpress - Acid Mouth Strangulation Vinyl LP

Suffocating home-brewed hypnotic sludge rock from the northern swamps. On their fifth full length album Finnish sludge rockers Fleshpress evolve from their days as a rough, gritty metal machine towards the unknown. These three long tracks ebb and flow with an organic pulse, from slowly meditative passages to black swamp-sludge metal. An unsettling but oddly beautiful experience.

Presented in a deluxe gatefold sleeve!



Ghost - Opus Eponymous Vinyl LP ***Blue/White Splatter***

Standing motionless and anonymous beneath the painted faces, hoods and robes (which their sect demand), the six nameless ghouls of Ghost deliver litanies of sexually pulsating heavy rock music and romantic lyrics, which glorify and glamorize the disgusting and sacrilegious. The simple intention to communicate a message of pure evil via the most effective device they can find: Entertainment.  This is Metal at it’s most original and deceiving; compositions such as “Ritual” and “Death Knell” majestically weave their melodic spell of evil through the senses until the listener finds themselves utterly possessed and open to any diabolical suggestion.

A daringly beautiful combination of satanic rock music with an almost unthinkable pop sensibility, Opus Eponymous is a must hear!

For fans of early Mercyful Fate, Angel Witch & The Devil's Blood.

Sink - The Holy Testament 1 Vinyl LP

This is the 1st part of Sink's Holy Testament opus. Finnish underground psychedelic black-drone nomads lead us down a spiral path to nothingness. A strange, choking mixture of choral black metal guitars, deep vocal hum and melting electronics over hypnotic, cavernous drumming. A genre-breaking trip to black ecstasy.

Serpentina Satelite - Nothing To Say Vinyl LP

"Nothing To Say" reflects perfectly the 70's free-space-jam-atmosphere and is heavily inspired by Ashra Temple, Amon Duul and Hawkwind. The album creates various soundscapes with echoing guitar effects, tripped-out voices and it explores authentically the avantgardistic space-psych-kraut-rock flair. The 5 cuts (49 mins), create a similar lysergic space feeling as the other Peruvian space heroes, La Ira De Diosdid on "Archeopterix". For the title track NOTHING TO SAY, better fasten your seat belt, its pure high energy psych'n'roll - side 2 contains only 1 song, its the spaced-out 23 min. tune "Kommune 1" which is truly the highlight on this album. Mastering was done analogue in the krautrock-studio "Perplex Ton", where also the latest Guru Guru, Embryo, Kraan & Obskuria have been made. This album is a gem, its purely in the 70s vein, and its another example for the high-energy Peruvian space underground sound!!!

Xysma - Deluxe Vinyl LP

No one really expected Xysma to write two minute grindcore bursts on their third album Deluxe, even though it had only been four years since the band imported death metal to Finland with their debut demo Swarming of the Maggots (1989).

Xysma had already begun the refinement of their distinctive blend of metal and rock on their first full length Yeah! (1990). The 2nd album First and Magical, from 1992, is still a metal record, with blast beats intertwining with bossa nova samples and a wailing hippie organ.

Deluxe is a logical step still further away from underground grindcore. The result is an irresistible mashup of growling death metal vocals, heavy rock guitars and rock'n'roll, with a weird underlying pop sensibility.

Imaging mixing Black Sabbath with Corrosion of Conformity with death metal vocals and a healthy injection of plain old weirdness! Essential...

Siena Root - Root Jam 2xLP Vinyl

Above all else, this extensive double live album, is a resume of Siena Root's early years. This album features all the elements of the band, from their debut up to recent days. They have managed to pour the bands dynamic energy from the stage right into this box of 91 minutes root rock. You will for sure find the good old heavy riffs, side by side with psychedelic vibes and groovy jams. But there is more, much more to experience in this magnificent album. There are no less than 9 guest artists featured, with a range from classical violin by Martin Stensson from Stockholm radio symphonic orchestra, to legendary blues guitarist Maxi Dread. You will also find a lot of Siena Root family from the past such as Tngman and vocalists Oskar and Sanya performing songs on a new level. On top of it all you get previously unreleased material and 2 rare acoustic tracks that reveal a new side of the band.

Arenna - Beats of Olarizu Vinyl 2xLP Vinyl

Amazing debut by this band of psychedelic stoner rockers from the cold regions of the North of Spain. As it would be an avalanche, Arenna demolishes the walls of your mind with heavy and catchy riffs as a swamp of smoking pitch while a voice able of hypnotizing your senses brings you on a trip to worlds you could never imagine. With the rock and psychedelia of the 70’s as the starting point, Arenna adds to their compositions a heaviness and a load of own and nontransferable nuances, giving place to an amazing and unique style. Forceful and massive as tectonic plates, evocative as the best trip of LSD, Beats of Olarizu is the voice when this is fused with the soul, the riff when it brings the creation fire, the blues when it belongs to the unleashed forces of nature.

Two years after the amazing debut album “Ghosts In The Flowers” the German psych rock band DATURANA is back with a new long player.

In how far may he or she view the street of hidden secrets and step onto the other side? The seven songs on this album tell the story of a nameless protagonist, who takes along the listener onto a magic and breathtaking journey, on which spherical guitar solos meet Hammond and synthie sounds.

Now set to be gloriously re-unleashed, the vinyl edition of the album includes an extended jam of one of the original tunes and a full lyric sheet.
"You may like classic rock, but I bet you don't like it nearly as much as Tony Dallas Reed. The Mos Generator frontman's new project, the two man Stone Axe, is essentially a ten song lesson on what The Riff was like when mutton chop'd giants walked the earth. Highlights? The whole album, really. While Reed does an impressive job making it seem like the work of a full band knocking out the songs live in the studio (he's credited with all instruments), Brinkerhoff also deserves praise for his vocals. He falls somewhere between Paul Rodgers and David Corverdale back when he was taking orders from Richie Blackmore. It's a powerful voice that's as soulful as it is gritty. You like Cream, Free, Thin Lizzy, The Faces, AC/DC, and Deep Purple? You'll enjoy the hell out of this impressive debut." Arzgarth ---StonerRock.com

Witch Mountain - South Of Salem Vinyl LP

Witch Mountain's first release since 2001's "Come The Mountain" is a powerfully heavy doom assault with crushing riffs and the powerfully soulful vocals of new female vocalist Uta Plotkin! This limited vinyl release was pressed on the bands own label, and they are soon to be gone, get it while you can!

A Review...

"If you've read anything about Oregon's Witch Mountain, you may have thought, "Great, another female-fronted doom band." Whether you meant that as a good thought or a bad thought, you ought to reconsider them entirely.

Putting a woman in front of a doom band is usually a good idea, as higher-register voices stand out against the heavy grooves, giving balance and contrast to the music. That's why Ozzy worked so well for Sabbath. And sometimes a female-fronted doom metal band sounds just like you might expect: a female-fronted doom metal band. No surprises there. But Witch Mountain's new vocalist Uta Plotkin gives an entirely different spin on things.

She sings with soul, making the band equal parts Joplin and Sabbath. Like Iron Butterfly's almost-appearance at Woodstock, it feels like Witch Mountain should have been there, leveling the audience.

The old-school rock vibe is straight out of that heyday of rock music, and has a solid analog production to complete that sense. But it's transformed by crushing heaviness. In short, this is the absolute best proto-metal album that was never released when it should have been, 40-plus years ago.

Wo Fat - Psychedelonaut 2xLP Vinyl

Wo Fat believes in the Riff. Wo Fat`s music is all about the riff. Wo Fat are well schooled in the ways of Rock. They have learned from the recorded evidence left behind by the old ones of the 70s: Black Sabbath, Captain Beyond, Leslie West, ZZ Top and studied the riffage of more contemporary masters like Sleep, Kyuss and Fu Manchu. They also possess knowledge of the archaic arts of analog recording and vacuum tube amplification. The result is a bubbling psychedelic brew of heavy riff- rock doom and electric fuzzed-out blues. A concoction of earth shaking Sabbathesque doom with dark trance inducing hill country blues and mind altering guitar solos. Rock. In the great tradition of the Old Ones. Dare you open the book of Wo Fat?

Wo Fat - Noche Del Chupacabra Vinyl LP

Noche del Chupacabra’ is the third psychedelic trip through the swampy backwoods from Texas riffmasters Wo Fat. Continuing their tradition of using crushing, fuzz-laden riffs channeled from a lost bluesman's tortured memories of hellhounds on his trail, Wo Fat conjures up hallucinatory images of hoodoo shacks, unseen menaces lurking in the shadows, and forbidden knowledge from the ancients. The five songs that make up ‘Noche del Chupacabra’ are full of twists and turns, like a river through the swampland. Psychotropic guitar solos, thundering bass, polyrhythmic drumming that harkens back to mysterious African roots. From sludgy doom to trance-inducing high voltage blues to driving 70's inspired riffery, this is Southern Psychedelic Doom done Texas style.

Blood Ceremony - Living With The Ancients Vinyl 2xLP

BLOOD CEREMONY, an infernal marriage of Sabbath riffing and the manic piping of Jethro Tull, play a distinctive style of flute-tinged witch doom rock. After a mind-numbing study of hundreds of trashy witchcraft films, the group began to pour their energies into crafting songs, transforming their fascination for horror into a profane musical vision.

Their sound bears witness to the heavy bands of yesteryear, fusing progressive rock elements with folk and an early '70s downer vibe. Invoking the mischievous Pipes of Pan, Blood Ceremony songs are distinguished by singer Alia O'Brien's energetic flute solos - accenting an instrument long-associated with a list of devilish figures.

Electric Wizard - Black Masses Vinyl 2xLP

Through a haze of ever-bleaker dopesmoke the black titans of underground doom, Electric Wizard, rise from the unholy grave once again!

With their new LP Black Masses the legendary Dorset bongsmokers delve deeper into the dark world of the occult and narcosatanism. Down, down further into drugs and hate, to the sleazy shadowy world of the blackest masses to the true inspiration of the heavy metal art... Lucifer!!!
 
With Black Masses, Electric Wizard return to the true source of all that is heavy and evil, this is their 'Lucifer Rising'; a mind-melting hallucinogenic nightmare of drug paranoia and misanthropic death wishes.... All in the name of Satan!!!
 
Some say blessed by the Devil Himself, Electric Wizard have been riding a black wave of success since the release of 'Witchcult Today' in 2007 and have played sold out shows across continental Europe, Scandinavia, the UK and Japan, thrilling audiences with their incendiary and apocalyptic live performances, culminating in near iconic status amongst true fanatics and devotees of HEAVY music.

And now they offer you their greatest work and bleakest art in unholy thanks...
 
From the psychedelic swamp of the ravens they summon 8 hymns of pulsating necro-doom, an unbelievable wizards brew of early acid rock psychedelia, 1970’s heavy metal and early 80’s satanic metal, distilled through endless loops of exploitation horror cinema, supersleazy 70’s necroporn and, inevitably, chronic and habitual drug abuse...
Effortlessly they weave a web of evil with unholy strands of pure doom metal and deliriously compelling narcopop evil. Designed to ensnare the youth of today as mindless slaves of their addictive drug:  Doom.  All this packaged in a revolting eye-searing nightmare of tasteless pop-art trash!!

Yes, Black Masses is a trip through every aspect of everything that’s cool about underground drug-rock from the head-spinning Satanic Psychedelia of Patterns of Evil through to the NWOBHM on LSD churning of Turn off your Mind. Black Masses is the album Electric Wizard always threatened to make. It’s here, and listening to the end of the world was never meant to sound this good!
 
Recorded once more in the 100% analogue surroundings of Toerag Studios, London. Produced by Liam Watson.

Manilla Road - The Deluge Vinyl LP

"The Deluge" was a very important album in the history of the mighty Manilla Road. Mark "The Shark" Shelton travels back in time: "It was, at the time of its release, the most intricate and complex project that Manilla Road had ever done. The production was better than any of our previous releases and the musicianship was also. 'Open The Gates' had been very successful for us and we were riding high at the time. It was maybe one of the most fun albums to record back in that era. We were all brothers in arms and the world was there for our taking and that's exactly what we tried to do with 'The Deluge': take over the world. I think every aspect of the band was coming together for us very nicely at that time and with all the good feelings about ourselves it was not much of a surprise to us that the album turned out really good. As for the albums that we did after that, 'The Deluge' helped set a higher standard for production and musicianship as well as the composition. It also lead us lyrically into even more historical realms than we had ever traversed before. More literary topics and lyrics and it also helped set the pace for how much research we put into a project. After 'The Deluge' we continued to work more and more in the framework of literature, art and philosophy meets Heavy Metal. I think 'The Deluge' was our first really big step towards becoming a truly epic band."

Manilla Road - Playground Of The Damned Vinyl LP **Green Vinyl**

After 30 years of playing the very best Heavy Metal around, you'd think Manilla Road would finally slow up and write a bad album by now, right? After all these years they have yet to write something bad! And on top of not writing anything bad, Manilla Road always tries to re-invent themselves with every album they create. This album is no different. Seriously, when you hear this, you'll think Mark "The Shark" has written his thick-est and fat-est riffs to date. I mean really, this stuff sounds like Candlemass trying to write a Manilla Road album, or for you know-it-all Manilla Road fans, this is more along the lines of "Hammer Of The Witches" type riff oriented songs throughout the whole album. I'm completely surprised with the direction of this album. I wouldn't call it a Doom Metal album, but it has some really Doom-y and off-the-wall moments. In the end, it sounds like Manilla Road.

Manilla Road - Gates Of Fire Vinyl 2xLP

Originally released on Battle Cry Records on July 25th 2005 and now out of print. Divided into three parts, Trilogy I: The Frost Giant's Daughter (consisting of three individual tracks), Trilogy II: Out Of The Ashes (consisting of another three numbers) and finally Trilogy III: Gates of Fire (making up the closing three compositions), the album is 72:16 minutes of sheer Epic Metal glory. "Gates of Fire" is a real masterpiece in the typical traditional Manilla Road style and in contrast to "Atlantis rising" and also "Spiral Castle" experimental passages are kept to an absolute minimum. Somehow, compositions like the outstanding up-tempo opener "Riddle of Steel" are going back to the very early albums ("Invasion" and "Metal") - an absolute must for every 80's Manilla Road maniac. Mark Shelton is sharing the vocals (with Bryan "Hellroadie" Patrick) on a couple of tracks, which works absolutely fine and adds another dimension to the sound of the band. Mark's guitar work is as unique as ever. Website Metal-Rules.com hit the nail on the head when commenting on the new album: "Manilla Road are continuing to write and record some of the finest Metal there is. If you've never listened to Manilla Road, ‚Gates of Fire' is as good a place as any to start and if you were like me, and were kind of iffy on the idea of a reunited Manilla Road and still haven't checked out any post-reunion albums, get a hold of ‚Gates of Fire' and prepare to be wowed."

Review...

It’s fantastic to see the UK doom scene flourishing that way it has been over the last few years with bands like the almighty Ramesses, Electric Wizard and Silent Winter all releasing material that has received much critical acclaim this year already.  Following on this fine tradition is Dartmoor-based The Wounded Kings whose mysteriously-entitled debut full length “Embrace of the Narrow House” is one of the finest examples of traditional cryptic doom this writer has had the pleasure of reviewing for a good while.
 

Like the soundtrack to some lost Hammer Horror or Lucio Fulci flick these seven haunting tracks sound like the bastard witch-child of the first Sabbath album, Candlemass and Electric Wizard combined, which is certainly no bad thing.  Swathes of organ-drenched eeriness plague the opening title track as the guitars, drums and sampled spoken word vocals slowly build into one of the most spooked doom epics put to tape.  George Birch’s echo/delay-laden vocals add a whole new dimension to these already engaging tracks, with the very live-sounding recording saturating everything in that graveyard ritual atmosphere essential for making this music work so well.  Not only that, the actual song writing is second to none as “Melanthos” and the suitably-titled “Master of Witches” show in superb style, letting the simple despair-ridden riffs and excellent use of abyssal like space seep and lock into mind and spirit.
“Embrace of the Narrow House” is an album that needs to be listened to with your headphones on and the lights off in order to be appreciated in all its magnificent glory.  A spectacularly grim release to see in the fast approaching winter nights.    ---Archaic Magazine

Castle - In Witch Order Vinyl LP **White**

Taking the name Castle from his original concept of building a "Castle of the Mind", guitarist and songwriter Mat Davis has drawn on the heavy sound history of his native San Francisco to write an album that smashes the modern metal mold with thrash velocity, scorching psyched-out riffs, thunderous drumming and literate occultism on this 11-song, 44-minute debut. Adding to the atmosphere of majestic doom, Elizabeth Blackwell's haunted, full-blooded vocals are electric witch hymns of death and madness that adapt lyrics from luminaries such as William Blake and Charles Baudelaire. Rounding out the power trio, drummer Al McCartney balances bombastic and technical with brutal precision.

Ghost - Opus Eponymous Vinyl LP ***Clear/Purple Splatter***

This item is now out of print and limited to stock on hand! ***Limit one per customer***

Standing motionless and anonymous beneath the painted faces, hoods and robes (which their sect demand), the six nameless ghouls of Ghost deliver litanies of sexually pulsating heavy rock music and romantic lyrics, which glorify and glamorize the disgusting and sacrilegious. The simple intention to communicate a message of pure evil via the most effective device they can find: Entertainment. This is Metal at it’s most original and deceiving; compositions such as “Ritual” and “Death Knell” majestically weave their melodic spell of evil through the senses until the listener finds themselves utterly possessed and open to any diabolical suggestion. A daringly beautiful combination of satanic rock music with an almost unthinkable pop sensibility, Opus Eponymous is a must hear! For fans of early Mercyful Fate, Angel Witch & The Devil's Blood.

Grand Magus - Hammer Of The North Vinyl LP

Grand Magus are a special band: While tradition is very important to them, they still have the courage to develop their music. Stylistically, they may have come a long way from their dusty self-titled rock debut to their new metal masterpiece HAMMER OF THE NORTH, but the Stockholm trio have evolved without losing touch with their experiences. They have never abandoned the driving groove of their early years or their love of epic doom and extreme metal. Now, their familiar trademark sound is melded with traditional riffs and melodies that rock the same league as Judas Priest and Dio. Lead singer JB not only shapes the ten songs of HAMMER OF THE NORTH with his distinctive, unique voice but also runs wild with his guitar playing. Supported by his rhythm section, FOX (bass) and SEB (drums) push JB to a new all-time high. On songs like ‘I, The Jury’ he skillfully applies the Halford-shout and matches the tour-de-force of his idol Ian Gillan, and on ‘Ravens Guide Our Way’ his sonorous vocals plummet to the depths of hell before rising up to Valhalla. Grand Magus also bring their versatile musical wealth on a lyrical level. While previously chief lyric-writer JB often used cryptic images to conceal song content, this time he is more transparent and distinct. The power of nature and the ancient Nordic tradition is his focus on this album, and this is also reflected in the cover artwork by Necrolord (Dissection, At The Gates, Emperor). Swedish history and Norse mythology have been an important source of inspiration. The wolf, which has always been the heraldic animal on the band’s coat-of-arms, is a powerful presence: while being a symbol for sheer wildness, he is a classic pack animal and as such also stands for absolute unity. According to the Prose Edda, in Ragnarök the “Fenris” (the wolf) killed Odin, the father of the gods. JB ensures his lyrics precisely match the songs so that when combined with huge choruses, soaring melodic arcs, and powerful riffs they form an explosive unit.

Joyless - Without Support CD

A review... "...It’s hard to pinpoint Joyless sound. The overall atmosphere is one of neurotic, slow lethargy with haunting riffs and a clear voice. You can hear post-punk elements, new wave, ambient and folk all combined into one enthralling release. It is depressive as it is beautiful, so let me stress once again how utterly original this release is. The only way to describe the conjured atmosphere is a mildly happy, demented dreamlike state. Have A Nice Fight starts with multiple levels of guitars and a sparse, clean drum. The singer’s vocals are as beautiful as they are fragile. Puberty And Dreams is quite different from the rest of the tracks because of the male voice included. The riff of this 2nd track is truly memorable and has a strong, radio friendly hook. Better is this happy-go-lucky track (‘Every Day Is Better Than The Next’) that serves as a antidote to the ‘depressive’ tag. Shadow Spree is a fun, poppy new wave kind of a track, with a strong, ‘indie’ riff. Notice how I get tongue-tied & mixed up in tags and labels while trying to describe the tracks of Without Support. Trilobite is quite a punky song with an old school drum and in the spotlight once again the lovely voice of Ida Hellebø. Shimmer And Shine has this slowly, dragging thing going, while Velvet Willows is all sweetness and Velvet Underground. The last track Journey has this nice organ or keyboard, creating an enchanting atmosphere... Review Written By Sandrijn van den Oever

Serpentcult - Weight Of Light Vinyl LP

Some bands are heavy and some bands are FUCKING HEAVY! Belgium’s SerpentCult most definitely fall into the latter. Comprising of various veterans of the Belgian underground Doom Metal scene, they set about battering galaxies with some of the most unorthodox and complex heavy riffs yet known to man! Defying generic categorization, ‘Weight Of Light’ transcends beyond standard Doom fare into a maze of uncompromising rifferama. The title track, itself, sounding like a combination of the heaviest Goatsnake offerings mixed with a hint of Celtic Frostiness and (80’s Belgian Metal legends) Acid. The all out Doom-odyssey of Akarnum reminds us how monumental and utterly devastating this often-overlooked genre can actually be. The punishment continues to flow throughout like a never-ending stream of lead weight Doom Metal ploughing its way across the sodden landscapes of a Dark Universe. The Cliff Burton inspired Wah-Wah bass of Steven literally shakes planets with bowel churning intensity. Album closer ‘SerpentCult’ rounds things off with a trippy mix of Cathedral esque twisted riffing and Electric Wizard style jams. All hail the SerpentCult.

Year of The Goat - Lucem Ferre CD

60's/70's retro doom for fans of Black Widow, Coven, Devil’s Blood, Blood Ceremony They walk through the mist, to an ancient place, gathering for the King, to invoke his name, potion from the darkest well, opens for pagan souls, hear the angels of heaven wailing, as they call for the lord of darkness... The setting is one of archetypal horror: a gathering of evil entities celebrating the coming of their king in a secluded, rural place pregnant with age and surrounded by mystery, a picture audibly painted close to perfection by so many dark luminaries in the past: Pentagram, Black Sabbath, Black Widow, Coven...

YEAR OF THE GOAT, while recognizing that the '60s and '70s saw the birth of true genius within the performance of dark art, aim is to abolish time and make you see it for the illusion it is - sinister gospels with properly dank atmospheres can be created whenever and wherever. Thomas Eriksson (vocals, guitar) received vision in 2006. Since then an amalgamation of different elements has taken place, Fredrik Hellerstrom (drums), Per Broddesson (guitar), Tobias Resch (bass) and Jonas Mattsson (guitar) now constitute one sombre congregation. "Lucem Ferre", which is latin for The bringer of light / The son of desert fire / Lucifer, consists of four gospels: "Of Darkness", "Vermillion Clouds", "Lucem Ferre" and a cover of the Sam Gopal song "The Dark Lord" (originally sung by Lemmy). In these times of global upheaval YEAR OF THE GOAT will add fire to chaos and ignite the branches spread out for Christ by his flock to further the triumphal return of a Lord that never left! So rejoice in sin, every hour and every second is yours and yours only, just like every year is, and always has been, the YEAR OF THE GOAT!

YEAR OF THE GOAT, while recognizing that the '60s and '70s saw the birth of true genius within the performance of dark art, aim is to abolish time and make you see it for the illusion it is - sinister gospels with properly dank atmospheres can be created whenever and wherever. Thomas Eriksson (vocals, guitar) received vision in 2006. Since then an amalgamation of different elements has taken place, Fredrik Hellerstrom (drums), Per Broddesson (guitar), Tobias Resch (bass) and Jonas Mattsson (guitar) now constitute one sombre congregation. "Lucem Ferre", which is latin for The bringer of light / The son of desert fire / Lucifer, consists of four gospels: "Of Darkness", "Vermillion Clouds", "Lucem Ferre" and a cover of the Sam Gopal song "The Dark Lord" (originally sung by Lemmy). In these times of global upheaval YEAR OF THE GOAT will add fire to chaos and ignite the branches spread out for Christ by his flock to further the triumphal return of a Lord that never left! So rejoice in sin, every hour and every second is yours and yours only, just like every year is, and always has been, the YEAR OF THE GOAT!

Batillus - Furnace Vinyl LP

"Big on atmosphere, big on time and big on tone, the first album from Brooklyn doomers Batillus is a bleak, oppressive six-song outing that’s bound to ring their name out among the underground converted. Doom heads, be aware. The band, which formed as an instrumental trio and later added be-dreadlocked vocalist Fade Kainer (Inswarm, Jarboe, occasionally Man’s Gin), have unleashed a monster in Furnace. With one guitar, one bass, one set of drums, one vocalist and a host of effects and synths, they set up posts along a range of heavy-footed doomscapes — which, contrary to the album’s title, actually sound quite cold — managing to incorporate some of post-metal’s progressive ideology while almost completely avoiding the now-clichéd traps of that genre. Fans of Suma, Unearthly Trance, Ufomammut and other drone-conscious neo-doomers will want to take note of the four-piece’s methodology, impressive and punishing in equal measure as it is."

Batillus / Hallowed Butchery - Split Vinyl LP

Batillus is a droning, bludgeoning American Doom act with rockish groove-riffs and nihilistic raw shrieks. It is the guitarist that adds some outside-influences, through his dissonance-heavy post-rockish parts.

Hallowed Butchery freaks out with harsh sludge, quirky lead guitars, computer-manipulated post-punk howls and whirling ambient!

Black Freighter - Graves and Monuments Vinyl LP

"Black Freighter's sound is dirty ; downtuned guitars , lots of feedback ; brutal and aggressive vocals ; you can hear influences from eye hate god to Godflesh to Coalesce and His Hero Is Gone ; a perfect mix of sludge / industrial / hardcore"

Presented in a deluxe gatefold sleeve



Crowskin / Black Freighter - Split Vinyl LP

“Two heavy-weight doom acts from the empty, hopeless landscapes of Eastern Germany team up for a split LP that holds the balance between brutality and depressive bitterness. Leipzig's BLACK FREIGHTER who give their vinyl debut on this one start a slow, but unstoppable steamroller of tuned-to-zero guitars in complex and blurred arrangements. Potdam's CROWSKIN, known from their split LP with BLACK SHAPE OF NEXUS and last year's "Harmony of death" 7" deliver feedback-soaked ugly pieces of sludge with.”

Hallowed Butchery - Funeral Rites For The Living Vinyl LP

“HALLOWED BUTCHERY is the alter-ego of Ryan Scott Fairfield from Kennebec County, Maine/USA, and his one-man-project brings you bizarre soundscapes between ambient, folk, industrial, progressive rock and heavy doom metal. Instead of the average doom repetitiveness, variety is the bottom line of this symphonic opus, ranging from soft melancholic acoustic passages to pure dark and slow funeral doom marches and weird synth fanfares. Lyrically, he deals with environmentalism, spirituality, religion and individuality vs. society. Altogether this results in a great album taking the listener on a trip into unknown depths of the self.” “

…a full-fledged warhorse of doom, with a sound that is way beyond its years”

“This is the most progressive doom / sludge stuff we’ve ever heard, for fans of: AHAB , COMUS, EARTH, KHANATE and NORTT”

Nadja / Galena - Collaboration Vinyl LP

Having long established themselves as pioneers in the heavy drone and dark ambient scene, Nadja, now based in Berlin, continue pushing things forward with Konstruktion, their newest vinyl only effort made exclusively for ADAGIO830. Nadja's unique thumbprint shines strong mostly on the B side of this album, punishing guitar that scratches the listeners itch for heavy, churning and an engulfing sonic experience. the pallet is made thicker with additions of accordion drone, bass and cogent drum patterns. Galena ads subtle synth and sustaining guitar lines that brew to boil just below Nadja's set threshold... Working in a similar and cohesive manner, Oakland California's Galena slowly stirs the pot with dark menacing synth layers, tape treatments and creeping washed out guitar. the burgeoning sounds fold out and in on themselves creating thunderous white noise windstorms your ears have no choice but to get lost in... voices appear and disappear under the wash and you're carried along not knowing when you'll be set back down. the A-Side shows Galena's strengths more prominent but again, welcoming subtle and tasteful additions by their collaborators. a wonderful example of 2 like-minded duo's joining forces to express their own unique styles and creating something new and fresh out of the mist...




Nadja / Ovo - Collaboration Vinyl LP

Over the last few dogs days of summer 2008, Italy’s OvO and Canada’s Nadja, got together in their adoptive city of Berlin at Einstürzende Neubauten’s andereBaustelle Studio. With engineer Boris Wilsdorf at the board, each duo began two songs and had the other duo finish them, Bruno and Stefania adding heavy, pounding rhythms and harsh, eerie vocals to Aidan and Leah’s ambient textures and bass-heavy drones.

Omega Massif / Mount Logan - Split Vinyl LP

“Summit of the two German masters of instrumental post metal/post rock from North of Bavaria. The former SWITCHBLADE worshipers MOUNT LOGAN surprise with their turn towards weird Albini-esque noise rock deconstructions, occasionally even with vocals added. OMEGA MASSIF, as you would expect from them, once again create a dark, moody and opulent soundscape with heavy crushing guitars and irresistible killer grooves.”

“Vendetta continues to bring together bands that complement each other on tasteful split releases, this time OMEGA MASSIF and MOUNT LOGAN, both from Southern Germany. OMEGA MASSIF do their well-known monumental heavy post-hardcore that lets the listener feel like watching an avalanche during the sunset in a lonely valley in the Alps. MOUNT LOGAN, despite their name, sound more "urban" with their dissonant chaotic now wave sound that feels like being stuck in a traffic jam after having drunk 20 cups of strong coffee.”

Salome - Terminal Vinyl 2 x LP

Fronted by a vocalist with one of the most powerful voices in metal, renowned for their stunning live performances, Virginia's Salome first made waves in 2008 when they released their self-titled debut album to an unsuspecting public. The three-piece quickly earned a reputation as one of the heaviest American bands alongside the likes of Yob and Dark Castle, recognized for bearing the doom metal torch passed to them by legends Khanate and Burning Witch.

Surpassing all expectations, Terminal is the most powerful entry in the heavy music arena this year. An album so crushing, ritualistic and epic in scope, it is destined to be recognized as a classic and milestone in American doom metal.

Double LP presented in a deluxe gatefold sleeve!




Salome - Self Titled Vinyl LP

Massive, heavy doom / sludge metal somewhere between killing groovy riffing and the absolute lava viscosity of BURNING WITCH; hailing from Virgina

"Drug-induced and alcohol-fueled heavy stoner slugdecore with thundering guitars, pounding drums and eerie painful screamed or grunted vocals from a female vocalist. SALOME take the obligatory SABBATH-influences in their riffing and transcend them into a monotonous, but no way lethargic monster that tends between pure hate and some hidden melancholy. Think of 13 or SOURVEIN as references. Actually unbelievable that it is only guitar and drums building this massive wall of sound and that it is an airy lady having this ugly voice from somewhere deep below. This shit is goddamn HEAVY!"




The Austrasian Goat / Hollow Sunshine - Collaboration Vinyl LP

"Two solo dirging monsters team up. Hollow Sunshine delivers a pummeling, industrial sewer while The Austrasian Goat goes rather eclectic ... the b-side features a wild blackened shoegaze meets industrial psych piece by way of a collaboration between the two."

Velnias - Sovereign Nocturnal Vinyl LP

"Sovereign Nocturnal" can be best described as very organic, and almost ritualistic down tempo masterpiece; channeled through the musical styles and mixtures of black, folk, and doom metal. Reminiscent slightly of works by bands like Wolves in the Throne Room, yet with a style all their own, the songs show a very immense musical maturity that their last release lacked slightly. Now grown up and all-powerful, Velnias drags us into their nocturnal world, whether by our will or theirs. In undertaking a more doomy aesthetic to this release, the band had much more room to incorporate different ideas within this new release. The songs are longer, allowing more compositions and small details within each bellowing track. This being said, each song does not sound rushed at all, but more carefully drawn out. From the beginning of the first track, one may note that there are very interesting stylistic approaches that the band began to take in order to enhance its already encasing atmosphere. With guitar distortion swelling to a point in which it almost sounds natural, and plenty of the drummer's utilization of the toms to craft an almost tribal sound, one could easily assume that if they had not made this a metal album, it could have passed as a very effective ritualistic ambient release. The first track is somewhat mellow and drawn out, perhaps done in order to ease the listener's passing into their world. Then, throughout the second track, the pace begins to pick up, little by little. By the end of the second track, the drums end up not sounding like metal drumming at all, but moreover a percussive composition with the toms. By the end of the third track, it eases once again. It is as if the album gets progressive, and then smoothly mellows out for the listener's safe departure back in the real world. As far as the sound and the atmosphere, an album cannot get much more encasing than this. Once drawn into this dark, melodic, and epic world, it is uneasy to find your way out until the end. This being said, the atmosphere is almost impenetrable. Seemingly, the goal of this release was to bring the listener outside of his or her current state and join theirs, in their netherworld of nature and somber nostalgia. One can almost taste their reverence for an untainted world, and their disregard for the fallible and insipid modern society that disappoints them."
