Penitent - Melancholia Redux - VINYL LP

Answering the call of the ancestral fires and forest spirits, Hulder returns with it's third full length statement Verbolgen. Over the course of those three albums, Hulder has evolved from the vision of a solitary black metal entity into something more expansive and collaborative, though still guided by the strident vision of it's creator and namesake. On Verbolgen long-time session member Necreon steps forward to join Hulder as full-fledged co-conspirator, amplifying the duos sweeping solemnity. Across nine tracks, Verbolgen deepens Hulder's characteristic balance of scathing black metal and windswept melancholy through increasingly layered arrangements and ritualistic atmosphere. Whether with the brutal immediacy of InchView from NemetonInch or the ceremonial mid-paced summoning of InchIn Blood and In Earth,Inch Hulder's signature sound is more immense and malevolent than ever. Joined on session drums by both Vapula (the band's live drummer) and Vrolok of the legendary Aeternus as well as live second guitar player Keld (Majesties, Obsequiae), who here contributes additional leads, keys and hurdy gurdy, the Hulder universe widens it's collaborative disposition to a new creative level.As with the previous album Verses In Oath the mix has been handled by Ahti Kortelainen at Tico Tico Studio in Finland, giving the album an earthy resonance befitting it's obsessions with blood, landscape and spiritual inheritance. Verbolgen also features cover art created by Morrigan of Aeternus, her first cover work since contributing art for the earliest Aeternus LPs nearly thirty years ago. The result is a towering and immersive work that cements Verbolgen as the most potent and immersive expression of Hulder's artistic vision to date.

Random. Access. misery (Turquoise Transp. Red Opaque Black Splatter Vinyl) Limited red and turquoise splatter colored vinyl LP pressing. MÉLANCOLIA reboot heavy music by striking an uncanny balance between an uncompromising extreme metal beatdown and an earthquaking nu metal bounce. The Australian quintet-Alex Hill [vocals], Joshua Taafe [guitar], Billy Morris [guitar], Toby Thomas [bass, backing vocals], and Mason Page [drums]-level up by breaking boundaries without apology, introducing an incomparable signature sound in the process. Gaining international buzz, the band continue to innovate and instigate disruption on their full-length sophomore LP, random. Access. #misery [Nuclear Blast]. InchFrom the word 'go', the vision was to marry our image and our sound more,Inch says Alex. InchWe're throwing back to the music of our formative years, nu metal, while still maintaining the atmosphere we've come to be known for. The title is a play on 'Random Access Memory' or RAM, which is a form of electronic computer memory. Overall, the vibe was to 'upgrade' from our Windows '95 aesthetics, so we're leaning into Y2K and cyber aesthetics even more-so. Inch
