Two Swedish hordes teaming up on this split. Both playing the raw style although Aska is cleaner sounding here than on the demo. Total Holocaust Records.
|
|
Blodulv/Pestiferium
|
Satanic Murder Order
|
Blodulv sound pissed and angry on their side of the split. Nice shitty sound too. Pestiferium provide a counterpoint of morbid melancholy amidst the backdrop of blastbeats. 500 copies on War Productions.
|
|
Blodulv
|
III/Burial
|
Tape version of the bands third full length. Not straying too far from their previous formula: very distorted guitars, harsh distorted vocals. Limited to 300 copies on Eternal Desolation Records.
|

Russian black metal celebrating ten years. So you get a variety of tracks. Some live tracks and some covers (Danzig, Venom). Limited to 525 copies on Osolon.
|
|
Bloody Harvest
|
Black Hordes
|
This sounds like shit. Yes the production is bad but this just isn't good. The drum machine and vocals are too loud, they cut right through the guitar (which sounds like shit anyway). This is just a bad, bad demo.
|
|
Blut und Boden
|
Blut und Ehre
|
He's back, More primitive and brutally stripped down nsbm. However, this one is even more stripped down than the previous, no drums at times. Five tracks, just over eight minutes. Only bastard crazy enough to release something like this is Teutonic Satan.
|

|
Blut und Boden
|
This Is Our World
|
This is something. You really don't hear many demos like this. This is just some nasty, nasty sounding shit. Teh production is shitty and sharp. The compositions are brutally primitive. Most could not stomach something like this. Ildjarn like? Perhaps. Teutonic Satan.
|
|
Blutvergiftung
|
Void of Meaning
|
3rd demo by this US band. Sloppy production, erratic drums, desolate, hollow vocals, mid-paced.
|

|
|
Bone Awl

At the Ellipse's Arc $5
|
New cassette version of the limited 7" vinyl that came out last year on Northern Sky Productions. This time resurfacing as a collaboration release between Klaxon and NSP. The cassette itself comes in black with professionally printed artwork on the shell sides. It also comes packaged in a 4"x6" ziplock with oversized cover. Musically, these songs are some of BONE AWL's crudest and most powerful. The songs here focus on the lower arm of the swastika as it swings down, away from life.
|
|

|

Burning Blood

|
|

First demo from this new UK band. Distorted guitars, screeched/growled vocals. Not typical bm, parts give way to cleaner guitar parts only. A different style. Drakkar Productions.
|
|
Calth

Domini

Another demo from this one man Bulgarian unit. Pretty much the same as the other demo with the exception of the programmed drums, sounds even more mechanical here. Six tracks in total, limited to 500 copies.
|

|
|
Celestia
|
Dead Insecta Sequestration
|
Not much needs to be said about this long running French act that of course includes Noktu. Top notch French black metal. Excellent sound on this demo. Drakkar Productions.
|

|
|
Christ Consumer
|
Disgust
|
New US band. Primitive, simple black metal. Interesting guitar tone, drum machine, death metal like vocals that are not good and too high in the mix. Six tracks, twenty four minutes brought to you by the filth monger that is Teutonic Satan.
|
|
Christ Incest
|
Dismembered Divinity
|
Aggressive black metal in the bestial/war vein from this Austrian unit. Eight tracks to bash your skull to...if you like it violent and brutal. Limited to 100 copies on Daemonokratia Productions.

|
Death/black metal out of Denmark. On the cleaner side sound-wise, pounding and extreme. Includes a Nunslaughter cover.
|
|
Ciel Nocturne/Devil Mind
|
Split
|
Ciel Nocturne is a band linked to Svartkrig and Dyster. Traditional black metal is what you will find here. Given the links to the other bands, this one fits perfectly soundwise, a good raw rehearsal type sound. Five tracks from Ciel Nocturne, one being a Darkthrone cover (Hans Siste Vinter). Devil Mind offers six tracks. Quite a contrast as well as they play epic pagan style black metal. Limited to 200 copies on Wolfsturm Propaganda.
|
|
Circle of Ouroborus
|
Shores
|
Tape version finally in stock. A welcomed edition considering the cd is sold out. This is where it all began. Still one of their best releases without questions. Heidens Hart.
|
|
Circle of Ouroborus
|
Streams
|
The 2nd full length from CoO. This is not much of a stretch from "Shores", very much in the same vein. Off-beat and still dreary, the only change I can notice is in the vocals, but it is slight. Defintely no sophmore slump. Again they continue in what seems to be becoming a tradition with their interludes. Northern Sky Productions.
|
|
Circle Of Pestilence
|
Bubonic Plague
|
Five tracks, thrity minute release from this one man Croatian operation. Quite a strange guitar tone, unique, provides a good atmosphere. Mid-paced traditional black metal, programmed drums. Limited to 50 copies on Daemonokratia Productions.
|
|
Cold Northern Vengeance

USBM on the technical side, also emplying the use of keys. Epic at times even. Good sound for a demo as well. North Cabin.

|
Cold Winter
|
Season of Sorrow
|
Epic, majestic ambient from France.
|
|

|
Anti-human and suicidal bm from Nocturnus Horrendus. Great raw sound, one of NH's best works. Limited to 300 copies, Alastor Rex.
|
|
Command
|
Sturmangriff
|
This release includes two demos, one being their 1998 demo remixed. Other than that, I don't have anything good to say about this material so I won't say anything else. No line up, no contact, thank kvlt!
|
|
Conjuration
|
Demo I
|
Old school horror heavy metal is what is says in the J card. Pretty accurate description. Simple, straight-forward, no frills. Bonus track included.
|
|

Mother Nature Gased
|
The very first release on Carnal Records! Totally pro done tape. Very hard to come by this these days.
|
|

The laetst full length from this Portuguese outfit. One of the main bands of Nocturnus Horrendus. Traditional bm.
|
|
Cosmic Church
|
The Blessing
|
Yes another new Finnish band! This is their debut offering and it is a solid demo. Nice rough sound to it. The style is in the traditional Finnish style so again, like other recent Finnish demos, if you are a fan of how they do it then check this out. Also comes with a lyric sheet.
|
|
Count Nosferatu
|
Soleil noir
|
Last demo from this band who have since revealed themselves to be homosexuals and thus are out of the scene. That being said, this falls in line with the Drakkar demo tradition of being underproduced. Dual vocal style a times, music shows some technical skill.
|
|
Crepusculum
|
Era Diabla - Kult Annihilacji
|
Misanthropic and nihilistic aura of pain and destruction. Fascination of death and terror...total opposition against everything and everyone. A co-production of Hail Satan 666 Productions and SPR, 333 copies.
|
|
Cripta Oculta
|
...do Passado
|
Another strike from CO paying homage to their pagan roots. Drum machine driven, good riffing, great vocals, unpolished sound, atmospheric. A solid demo, three tracks spanning twenty-two minutes. Teutonic Satan.
|
|
Cripta Oculta
|
Ode ao Metal
|
A rather obscure band from the Portuguese underground. This demo contains two Cripta Oculta tracks and then covers of Varathron and Black Sabbath. Their original tracks are quite solid. Metal Legions approved? BiC. Winterreich Productions.
|
|
Cripta Oculta/Nortada Gelada
|
Split
|
True underground Portuguese bands presenting two tracks each. The style of Cripta Oculta is melancholic and mid-paced. Nortada Gelada is more aggressive and raw, more variety within the tracks and more atmospheric. NG really shines on this split, great material. Limited to 222 copies on Eternal Desolation Records.
|
|
Crucified Mortals

|

|
|
Cryptic Lorn

|
Brazilian band paying homage to the norsecore style. This stuff is blazing fast, would make Marduk proud.
|
|

Three advance tracks taken from upcoming split lp, and four songs taken from "A seat in Valhalla". Heidens Hart.
|
|
Cultus
|
Hymns of descending
|
Four long new tracks, still typical for Cultus although the songs are much slower, ranging from uptempo black metal/rock to ultraslow doom metal, although Cultus spirit is more then present... No drumcomputer and relatively clear and epic production. Excellent atmosphere and feeling. Proprinted doublesided booklet comes with long motivation, photo's, etc. Released by Antihumanism.
|

The birth of Cultus, the first demo. More epic sounding in that there is some ambient passages and synths used in some tracks. BiNF, DFC NLC.

|
Tape version of the sold out debut cd. From the Werewolf Records website....Shamanic ritual demon worship. Obscure and filthy, defintely not for everyone. You do not classify this stuff by instrumentation, composition or sound, simply because it is not musik. Released by Antihumanism Records.
|
|
Deathcraft
|
The Seal of Solomon on Fire
|
A low profile Finnish band that has released several hard to get demos. This demo contains only two tracks. What you can expect is the traditional Finnish style of cold, atmospheric/melancholic black metal. Production is clear but the overall volume is low.
