SATANIC R. "A.W.M.F.T.S"
7 years after their debut demo, "Right-Wing of Baphomet", this elusive horde rises again from the ancient Lusitanian caves with a new piece of vitriolic Black Metal assault. Inspired by the hateful days of the 90s, most strikingly by the Pagan scene of The Temple of the Fullmoon, the Finnish hordes and projects like Moonblood and Bilskirnir with some spectral lead work that resembles the works of Sir N.. Over 40 minutes of haunting scorn carried through continuously blasting drums of war and eerie, murderous tremolo riffage that serpentines through the valleys of the land watching over prey to feast upon.

GOTHAYR "Trial for the Black Sun"
The monstruous debut album from the portuguese occultists, after two amazing demos released in 2019, originally put out in 2020 but now re-released with a fully remastered sound by HGH at the revered Svarthallen Studio and also with a slighyly reviewed tracklist, titles and 2 extra tracks!
Not as chaotic as their demos, "The Trial for the Black Sun" is not, however, by any means a more accessible piece. Featuring three long tracks of noisy and cryptic Industrial Raw Black Metal, somewhat similar in its spectral ambiance to Stagnat but with multiple layers of martial Industrial elements, connecting the dots between man and machine, war and progress and the mysteries of the earth, as well as four amazing Dark Ambient tracks, with a cosmological and ritualistic aura, with special highlight to "... Warrior Cult", an amazing piece of esoteric electromagnetic reverberations from a cosmic realm from beyond.

TEMPLE OF TAURUS "Temple Alpha Tauri"
Ancient mysticism from countless aeons prevails through this release. From ancient Summeria, to Siberia, Scandinavia and the XIX and XX century clandestine mystical circles, the Taurus constellation and symbol has been a source of inspiration and strength. One that includes equally the star of Aldebaran, icon for one of Raw Black Metal's most infamous circle.
Almost 50 minutes of droning, sulphurous Black Metal mysticism, carried through hazey intoxicating riffs that unvelop slowly yet steadily channeling obsidian currents of heathen magic and blasphemous evil complemented by the austere hypnoticism of the keyboards and a killer vocal performance of pure purifying hatred.
