Nekrasov - Extinction


“...Riding atop the recent wave of black metal/noise hybrids who combine the bleak frosty riffs and blackened ferocity of underground BM with blown-out and corrosive strains of industrial noise (see also WOLD, Emit, Grief No Absolution, Enbilulugugal, Vargr), the Australian one-man band Nekrasov has so far made a substantial mark in the realm of extremist necro-racket with a series of limited edition, brutally abrasive albums (Cognition Of Splendid Oblivion, The Form Of Thought From Beast, etc) that have mostly been self-released, save for some recent offerings on labels like Siege Of Power and Chrome Leaf. Early on, Nekrasov's sound was steeped in caustic noise, a blazing industrialized black metal assault that was doused in heavy levels of irradiated distortion and Merzbowian skree. But more recently, it's mutated into less metallic regions, alternating the hyperblast black metal with forays into crushing, demonic wall-noise and blasted ambience. Now, Nekrasov is back with a new full length (the first for Crucial Blast), and it's the most advanced slab of their blacknoize terror that we've heard so far. An octagonal prism of isolationist drone, flesh-rending mechanical black metal, abstract otherworldly beauty, claustrophobic industrial dread, and the most violent, suffocating strains of harsh noise, Extinction is pure cyclonic contempt for humanity.... ” via Crucial Blast
yeah what they said, this is a powerful release!

Lamentations of the Ashen - EKIMMV

Newest full-length from the best Tragic black metal act out there. Don't go into this expecting anything, there are so many influences that slapping a genre tag doesn't work on this. This will be out at the end of the week on Bandcamp and iTunes, so please buy it if you like it!

Horrid Cross

Powerful raw black metal, really in your face stuff but at the same time incredibly listenable, highly recommended!!


Horrid Cross - Demo I, II and III


Auspicium - Infinite Lights of Greater Stars

Here it is, the long awaited and delayed third Auspicium long-player. Nick from Disguster contirbuted leads and vocals on "The Imperialist" that are great. The packaging and layout by Ninth Meridian Records are great, so please make sure you buy a copy if you enjoy it.

Hellige - God

Hellige is from Argentina. They play a blend of doom and black metal. It is reminiscent of The Axis of Perdition and TWTTG-era Blut Aus Nord.
