Avant-garde metal

Znovuvydané třetí album této finské kapely, které vychází k 20ti letému výročí alba. Mrazivý symfobický avant-gardní black metal. Digipack. 20th anniversary edition of A.M.G.O.D. in Digipak with 14-page folded booklet incl. Timo Kontio's liner notes and new art additions. Finland’s symphonic black metal sweethearts AND OCEANS turned rogue with their third full-length and adopted a drastically more electronic music influenced style. As a result, A.M.G.O.D (2001) was much debated upon its release: both praised for its inventiveness but also misunderstood many fans. Now, A.M.G.O.D is an integral part of the band’s discography and a must have to complete one’s AND OCEANS collection, released on vinyl for the first time. For fans of EMPEROR, ABORYM, SAMAEL. Artwork by Niklas Sundin. Tracklist: 01. Intelligence Is Sexy (05:15) 02. White Synthetic Noise (05:01) 03. Tears Have No Name (06:13) 04. Espirit De Corps (03:36) 05. Odious & Devious (06:16) 06.

Precizní avant-gardní black metal. Digipack. Velká Británie.

A new yardstick for other purveyors of allegedly visionary, extreme Metal It is the year 1895. The mysterious Gentlemen Club A Forest Of Stars publicises its fourth opus in the current format of a phonograph cylinder: "Beware The Sword You Cannot See". With this offering, A Forest Of Stars make good on the promise given on the predecessor "A Shadowplay For Yesterdays" (2012). The compositions are more adventurous and bold, more eccentric and progressive, yet still melodic and accessible like never before. Conceptually, A Forest Of Stars likewise hark back to older issues and develop them further. Whereas "A Shadowplay..." depicted moral decay based on an individual fate, "Beware The Sword..." transfers the topics of demise and insanity into metaphysical spheres. Accordingly, the sound alchemists' music becomes more universal. The effect of A Forest Of Stars' new album is similar to what the first mechanical reproductions of music at the end of the 19th century achieved: The...

Zatím poslední album britské avantgardní black metalové kapely. The year is 1898. The Gentlemen's Club of A Forest Of Stars invites you to a midnight performance of their latest maniacal masterpiece, "Grave Mounds And Grave Mistakes". This exclusive brotherhood embraces the decadent, conflicting nature of their Victorian England, weaving sickly gin-tinged thoughts with bizarre, hypnotic melodies to fully express the decadence of their era. 120 years later, in the year 2018, A Forest Of Stars would be nothing less than one of the UK's leading Avantgarde black metal outfits. On "Grave Mounds And Grave Mistakes", the septet takes William Blake's proverb of Hell "Exuberance is beauty" as its principle, and celebrates lushness and excess in their music, lyrics and artwork. As an exploration of a struggle against insanity, it also represents the band's desire to revisit earlier works. A more atmospheric album than its predecessor, 2015's "Beware The Sword You Cannot See", this album...

The second release by these Victorian gentlemen "Opportunistic Thieves of Spring" already is the second testimony of the musical-alchemistical skills of A Forest of Stars and contains a previously unheard-of ghostly and hypnotic music, filled with the spirit of the glorious Victorian Age - a harrowing testimony of their many spiritual and sensual excesses. Prick up your ears and listen attentively: A Forest of Stars are the future of British Black Metal, and the future starts right now!

he extraordinary debut album by A Forest Of Stars With their experimental, psychedelic, and uncommonly individual debut album "The Corpse Of Rebirth", A Forest Of Stars had success in the Black Metal scene right from the start. The five hypnotic compositions that rarely clock in less than ten minutes are characterised by their own unmistakable signature and come across like an evil spell from another world.

Zatím poslední album legendární norské kapely z roku 2015. Digipack. Unparalleled in creativity, musicianship and artistic approach since their foundation days, mastermind Steinar "Sverd" Johnsen and his cosmic crew consisting of past and present members of bands like Ulver, Mayhem, Dimmu Borgir, Borknagar and Ved Buens Ende have been dancing their very own tightrope between genius and madness ever since. With each of their releases being an interstellar journey of its own, and always ahead of their time, Arcturus can justifiably be labelled as the epitome of avant-garde metal. "Arcturian" is Arcturus' first studio album in ten years, and the announcement of its release may take many a fan by surprise. But the first spin of the album will turn doubts into sheer bliss. As the title indicates, Arcturus return with their quintessential work. Veined by the band's generic boundless creativity, "Arcturian" is a setting-to-music of both the sublime and beauty of outer space, uniting...

Poslední album Arcturus také k dostání v krásném vinylovém vydání.

Opět k dostání toto kultovní album. Nové digipackové vydání. On their sophomore full-length "La Masquerade Infernale" (1997), ARCTURUS took their musical experimenting three ambitious steps further. The Norwegians succeeded in wedding a devilish concept loosely based on the characters of Faust and Mephistopheles with an eclectic range of surreal sound elements into an album that is rightfully considered a prime example of what later came to be known as avant-garde metal. From quoting Edgar Allan Poe in operatic paraphrases by frontman Garm (ULVER) or the additional high notes from the unmistakable I.C.S. Vortex (BORKNAGAR) via the spaced-out electronic samples, classical instrumentation, and an even increased use of psychedelic guitar riffage alongside more "traditional" black and death metal elements. Brilliant guitarist Knut Magne Valle replaced Carl August Tideman, which brought stability to this position of the band's line-up. ARCTURUS aimed dangerously high with "La Masquerade...

Precizní avant-gardní black metal. Norsko. Nové digipackové vydání tohoto alba. In 2002 Arcturus managed to astonish and surprise again with "The Sham Mirrors". Abiding by the motto 'expect the unexpected', they created an opus that shows their musical and song-writing comprehension and ability once more, while at the same time it is accessible to an unexpected degree. It combines characteristics of the first two albums with a lot of new elements: again the band's creativity and joy of experimentation seem to be immense; again they are ahead of their time."The Sham Mirrors" is clearly rooted in the band's past and shows Arcturus' elemental way into the future.
