Dødsengel – Alongside Choronzon
Jointly released by English label Barghest and Norwegian label Terratur Possessions, this new Dødsengel EP delivers more insanity and ritualistic modern Black Metal. First thing to note is that Alongside Choronzon is a 10" vinyl, 2 tracks per side, offering up almost half an hour of powerful, dark music. 'Contra Mundi' begins with slow, restrained riffing and agonised vocals that open your... More »

With 5 songs spanning a massive 55 minutes, it seems Mirium Occultum is going to take us on a different musical journey to its predecessor.

There is no scene to speak of, just the odd one or two equally useless bands trying in vain to mimic some of the more [...]Sanguinary Misanthropia – Diabolic Gnosis

Opening with a song title of the length Bal Sagoth would be proud of (thankfully that’s as the only comparison to draw), the imaginatively titled ‘A Glimpse of the Image of Lucifer Gleaming Beyond the Subterraneous Black Sun’ marches forth. Mid paced, it stamps away with the precision of a well oiled Black Metal machine [...]- More From the Depths... »
