veneficus_malus feeling despair, love it!! Favorite track: No Stars.

Cheveu Miracle (black metal & related genres / 2015 comp. / World // )

Metallurgical Fire This is a great intro to quite a few amazing bands. The non-HDR artists are just as good as the ones on the label. Let this release send you to some great music if you’ve not heard these bands yet. Favorite track: Stream-Enterer.

Wallow Within It's a very good sampler. I think a lot more labels should make good pratice of Hypnotic Dirges example and offer one every once in a while. Also, I wanna take that chance to thank the label for it's awesome price policy, very customer friendly, thank you guys a lot.

Jarak As usual with Hypnotic Dirge, there's actually a bunch of great tracks on here. Listen to this, then find the albums those songs are from, and put them on your Bandcamp wishlist (and order physical copies while you're at it). Favorite track: Let me in.

this nest reeks of disease soaked with mites and fleas this nest is a room you’ll never leave beak dripping with bile scavenge scraps of denial refuse to settle in sloughing feathers and skin cryptic slaughterer I know you fear me cryptic slaughterer I know you hear me I’ll watch you decay this is your debt, now repay I’ll rip fragile skin, you’ll always be my prey tumors ulcerate languish and stagnate sludge seeps from your pores I’ll smile and wait bending bones that splinter as you tremble everything you dread clasps its fingers ‘round your throat spectre of greed with a kiss so tender self worshiper stop praying your avarice earns you no pity desecrate your vows squander innocence I would watch you burn but that takes too much time

Tout est froid et gelé. Gelée la mer, gelé le ciel. Gelée est la Mort, mais je ne peux mourir. Ne peux mourir. Tombe la neige! Recouvre tout! Tout est froid.. froid... et Tout est froid.. froid... est Tout. Froid. Gelé. Gelés les cieux et gelé l'enfer. Et je crève dans cette coquille faite de chair. Je suis un dieu mourant devenant chair humaine. Je suis un dieu mourant devenant chair humaine. Je suis un dieu mourant devenant chair humaine. Je suis un dieu mourant. Gelé mon coeur. Gelée mon âme. Gelé l'amour. Je suis un dieu mourant devenant chair humaine. x8

Sojourner speaks in throatless waves Soulburner keeps clandestine pit aflame Telepathic twin souls The starbound and the sleepwalker Feeding fire – Sensations of – Birth and Death – In one breath Mortal man granted omnipotence Sets my demons aside Lets my third eye come alive More sleepers drift out from shelter Their untarnished vines climb the trees of the clearing Luminous chapel walls Violet and teal fibers Buried strength unearthed Together for once we are Turning hate to hope – fear to passion – dreams to servitude – honoring you A sudden rupture in the hum A dimming of the violet Has the gathering been seen by waking human eyes? Never! ‘Twas the final strands of fear Departing through the blaze – crossing over Woodsmoke depicts the mortal coil Traveler’s benevolent eyes From which fractals of sorrow sprawl Founding power clarified When will I awake? Will the memory stay? Will we ever meet again? Never apart…remember this dream…It’s time to go… Four winds of unbridled passion have become Four winds of unfathomable grief The starbound one has indeed prepared me This is your task - your alchemy – Storms to silence – Darkness to light

about

A few weeks ago, we released a Doom Metal collection under the Subarctic Nocturnes banner. As we stated at that time, it was meant to be the first of a three-part trilogy series of compilation albums that we would be releasing. Now, we present to you "Subarctic Nocturnes: Within the Ice [Volume II]", a collection of Black Metal and associated genres!

Within this volume, a few different variations of Black Metal is included. The start of the album includes more fast-paced, and aggressive Black Metal, while the end of the album includes more introspective and melancholic Post-Black Metal. It is not a perfect science to be sure, but an effort was made to make the songs flow as best as possible, which can be a challenge when including twelve different visions!

There is equal measures of new and old material included within, with a nice mixture of Hypnotic Dirge artists and associated guests. A french rendition of Celtic Frost`s 'A Dying God Coming into Human Flesh' is included from the French band Verlies, new material from netra presenting one of the most straight-forward Black Metal songs in the project's history, new demo material from Galaktik Cancer Squad, a reworked track from Epitimia, a track from Immortal Bird (ex. Woods of Ypres Drummer Rae's band), a track from Quebecois legends Sorcier des Glaces, introspective blackened metal from Harrow, and the album closer "Let me in" from the fantastic new Post-Black Metal band from Calgary, Numenorean. These, among others, are some of the pieces included in this collection.

Thanks to all the bands and artists for participating!

Umbras de Barbagia
by Downfall of Nur

supported by 257 fans who also own “Subarctic Nocturnes: Within the Ice [Volume II - MMXV]”

After listening to Ysyry Mollvün, listening to Downfall of Nur was urgent and turned out to be one of the best decisions I have made in quite some time: Umbras de Barbagia is simply magisterial; the atmosphere can hardly be compared to anything else. There is a deep, palpable connection to nature imbueing each very fibre of this record. The amalgamation of black metal and folk elements is done with a high intuition for detail and class, resulting in a highly immersive experience. Wonderful. David Fischer

PSA: if there was an album you heard a couple years ago and thought it was ok, listen to it again and you might love it. That's what happened to me with this album. I cannot fathom why it didn't stick with me back then. Same thing happened with Decoherence's Unitarity for that matter. Matten
