Black Metal / Pagan black metal

Viking folk metal. Řecko.

Nové a poslední album Holdaar, které završuje a ukončuje existenci této kultovní ruské pagan black metalové kapely. The eleventh full-length album of HOLDAAR black metal division from Koenigsberg. It is the last album closing the chapter of the band that has been active since 2004. With more than a dozen of albums in its discography after 13 years the band calls it quits. Almost every subsequent album of HOLDAAR demonstrates tangible development and opens new musical horizons for its fans. Now the time has come to draw the line. The CD includes cover versions of songs originally performed by black metal genitors: “In the Halls and Chambers of Stardust...” (Isengard) and “Mother North” (Satyricon), and some re-recorded old stuff of the band! With this CD we pay homage and salute to HOLDAAR.

Desáté řadové album ruské pagan black metalové kapely. The material of this 10-track CD is traditionally dedicated to World War II and some facts from earlier epochs. The aggressive lyrics are accompanied with not less aggressive music! Symphonic constituent cedes under the black metal attack – only rare lyrical acoustic overtures give some rest from this squall of gale force. Heavy and underground sound of the album returns listeners back to the early days of HOLDAAR. Nevertheless, it is the best album of the band in terms of recording and production, the album based on mature and truly profound lyrics. The time has come to join in! Launch your war!!!

Zbrusu nové album německé black metalové kapely. Digipack. On their fourth album, "Confessing Darkness", IMHA TARIKAT are once again pushing hard against all the boundaries that define the genre without ever losing the essential connection to the harsh style. Black metal has always been a much less narrowly defined musical beast than outsiders or jealous gatekeepers have often insinuated. The German black metal innovators have previously made use of all the possibilities that the genre offers while still carving out their own territory. Their dark sonic kingdom is built on two pillars: Musically, a relentless pushing and unstoppable drive forward characterise their sound. "Confessing Darkness" delivers even more of that raw energy than before. The other foundation is a deep emotional intelligence that fully utilises the ability of black metal to express every feeling ranging from purest love to darkest hatred, from severe depression to outbursts of joy.

Zbrusu nové, třetí album německé black metalové kapely. Digipack. Vicious and vitriolic, full of raw anger and burning hatred, yet at the same time bursting with live and lingering on moments of astonishing beauty – IMHA TARIKAT's third album "Hearts Unchained – At War with a Passionless World" announces its inherent contradictions and struggles already in the title. Essentially a black metal album in the crackling dry and humourless German style that renounces all bombast and often folk-ish undertones of its Nordic counterparts, IMHA TARIKAT's lyrical and musical mastermind Kerem Yilmaz aka Ruhsuz Cellât has once again created new layers and expanded the dimensions of his unique compositions. While adding even more throat-torturing approaches to his physically violent singing style, the ferocious drumming and relentless churning of frost-covered guitar strings remain as the either ice cold or glowing hot foundations of IMHA TARIKAT. Then again, while his songs twist and turn...

Na 1 CD znovuvydané debutní album + debutní EP této německé black metalové kapely. Krásné digipackové vydání od labelu Prophecy Productions. When IMHA TARIKAT exploded onto the black metal scene in 2017, the Germans created an immediate buzz. Already their debut EP "Kenoboros" (2017) got picked up by Norwegian underground label Terratur Possessions, and the band's debut album "Kara Ihlas" (2019) scored them a slot at Bergen's prestigious Beyond the Gates festival where they played alongside MAYHEM, MARDUK, and ARCTURUS. In the wake of the release of their sophomore full-length "Sternenberster", both of IMHA TARIKAT's early works will be reissued by Prophecy Productions under the title "Kara Ihlas / Kenoboros - Initiation of Passion Bursting". The sound created by founding member and mastermind Ruhsuz Cellât is defined by particularly dense guitars and a powerful vocal style that takes the singer to his physical limits. Driven by gut instinct and burning passion, IMHA TARIKAT's...

Nové album německé black metalové kapely. Krásné digipackové vydání na labelu Prophecy Productions. On "Sternenberster", IMHA TARIKAT take the harsh sound of their debut album "Kara Ihlas" (2019) a huge step further while at the same time staying true to their course. . The German black metal act combines an old school approach based on the Norwegian second wave with dark melodic Swedish influences, vicious outbursts of speed, a dash of punk, and even a pinch of occult rock. Their densely woven string-tapestries allow for distant comparisons with a number of the band's compatriots, but IMHA TARIKAT chose a very direct, raw, and fierce form of expression, which is driven by pure gut instinct and burning emotion. The lyrics of "Sternenberster" were inspired by psychoanalysis and especially dream interpretation. The sound created by mastermind Ruhsuz Cellât is infused with high voltage intensity and constant outbursts of inner pressure that also show in his relentless full-throttled...

Nové album norské black doom metalové kapely. In The Woods... return with a brand new studio album of avant-garde, progressive black rock & metal managing to deliver an epic masterpiece following untrodden paths and pagan tongue.

Zbrusu nové album kultovní norské kapely. Digipack. With their seventh studio album "Otra", Norwegian avant-garde metal stalwards IN THE WOODS... might surprise their listeners – and particularly those, who have not followed the remarkable evolution that the band from the southern Norwegian city of Kristiansand has undergone since the early nineties. The tracks of "Otra" are surprisingly captivating with melodic tunes dominating the present sound of IN THE WOODS... – although progressive elements and the occasional rough reminder of the Norwegians' harsh past are also regularly shimmering through the fabric of these songs. What sets "Otra" apart from the average heavy work of music is the excellence of composition that shows expert level experience and comes with a seeming ease that makes the achievement even greater. Lyrically, "Otra" revolves around stories connected to the eponymous river that winds for 245 kilometres through the South of Norway and spills into the Skagerrak,...

"Maleficia" continues the path of "Strigae" with Tenebra on witch's voice, and the charismatic Samael von Martin (Evol, Mater a Cliivis Imperat) and Nequam (The Magik Way) respectively on demonic and inquisitor voice. It is a pure and simple piece of Art, a journey that sets no stylistic or temporal limits and that reaches straight into the sick soul of those who can perceive it.
