PROCER VENEFICUS - How The Heather Mooonlight Shivers

 Amazing release that has go in a different direction conjuring up alot more dark and experimental sounds than the previous black metal outings. Cinematic blackened drone folkness that is haunting, buzzing, low end, melancholic, and psychedelic. and more......


                                                                                 Brilliant!
     

try Just Another Winter for euro ordering
and AQUARIUS for the U.S.

LABYRINTHINE- Evoking The Multiverse

One man black metal atmospheric buzzscapes that are very lo-fi, ethereal, melodic, black, depressive and at times technical and I would say somewhat psychedelic. If its your kinda thing then go check his myspace to listen and order releases. LABYRINTHINE

DETRITIVORE- Pakt

Debut LP.  I hear wide array of influence from drone to noise to doom and even more. With artwork by Justin Bartlett, and mastering done by James Plotkin, already cause some attention. I expect some cool shit from this Norwegian duo following this unique heavy mesmerizing piece of what sounds like a beautiful decent into the darkness.

 available many spots but released on Lyderhorn Records

Monarch - Sabbat Noir

I have not heard this yet, but I assume that its nothing short of Fucking Heavy, I'll tell you that much. French Doom, relentlessly slow and evil. Check anything out by MONARCH. I believe this is the most recent recording (released March 2010) someone correct me if I'm wrong.


  Taken from Heathen Skulls:

Hailing from Bayonne, a small town located in the dark reaches of the south of France, better known as Basque Country, lies a slow as hell, dark as death blackened doom metal band like no other, they call them selves Monarch and they ascended to this earth in the year of 2004 via their previous fast-core power violence incarnation Tetsuo.

Drawing comparisons to the likes of Khanate, Burzum, Corrupted, Melvins and Burning Witch, Monarch are a feedback drenched funeral doom quartet fronted by the very beautiful and devilishly evil screaming banshee Emily Bresson. On bass we have MicHell Hammer on Bass, on guitar Shiran Fabrice and now on drums Robert MacManus, formally of Grey Daturas.

Sabbat Noir is Monarch’s latest long player, it’s one one long piece of music split into two pieces spread across both sides of the Sabbat Noir LP. It was recorded at Amanita Studios, France, in late December 2009 by Stephen Kreiger. Sabbat Noir is strictly limited to 400 180-gram LP’s.
