Ophidian Forest is a transatlantic progressive black metal band that was formed in 2006 and have released 4 full-length albums and 2 split releases with other associated acts. Earlier albums were more raw, chaotic and lo-fi, but since 2018’s 4rth album “VotIVe” they presented both a line-up change as well as a change of musical direction (much to their benefit).

The current members of Ophidian Forest are located in the United States and the Netherlands. “Tales of Doom and Ignorance” is the band’s 5th album. These recordings were made between 2016 and 2020 and were finally mixed by Luctus (guitar) and mastered by Jack Shirley at the Atomic Garden in Oakland CA. They present more elaborate and musically progressive ideas in the forward-thinking black metal territory, which will appeal to fans of early Sigh, Hail Spirit Noir, or early Lunar Aurora. Further aiding their new effort is the advanced production, the best that the band has seen till date. As per tradition, Amalgamoth is behind the vocals, lyrics and atmospheres that you hear on this album alongside Luctus on guitar and mix, Ortebor on drums and a final appearance of DCRF on bass. The album’s remarkable artwork is by the hand of Czech artist Waclaw Traier (droned.eu).

"Our 5th album is called “Tales of Doom and Ignorance” (I write it shorthand as TODAI), and it deals with disaster and cataclysm, in the past and in the future, in reality, and in mythology. That’s the Doom part. The Ignorance part directly relates to Pandora’s trait of curiosity, which also implies the inability (of humanity) to oversee the consequences of meddling with the unknown. A neverending cycle of disasters is part of our existence as a species, and when searching for a subject to write about I was reading somewhere how evolution is (defined by) the periods between mass extinction events. There have been five such events. And since I was working with five pieces of music it clicked with me instantly. The previous albums of Ophidian Forest were centered around history, mythology and mysticism, so that was the direction I was heading." (Amalgamoth, 2021)

For fans of Sigh (early), Hail Spirit Noir, or Lunar Aurora (early).

EVOKING WINDS RELEASE "THE HEROES"

PRESS RELEASE:

Release Date: September 10, 2019

Location: Belarus

The true brilliant of the Heroes of Might and Magic series is music. It influenced the Evoking Winds band much and this album is our tribute work to the three heroes of fantasy music: Paul Romero, Rob King, and Steve Baca. The monumental work "Heroes of Might and Magic III OST" had been released 20 years ago, and we played the beloved themes from HoMM3 and HoMM2 once again to celebrate the music we all grew on.

The band carefully arranged the OST and performed all the main town themes of HoMM3 as well as several additions from HoMM2 original soundtrack. Evoking Winds is a completely non-commercial project distributing their music for free.

Atmospheric metal meets folklore fantasy in music by Evoking Winds. It’s a mixture of stormy blast beats with an epic ambiance and a healthy dose of Eastern Europe’s dark tales.

The band was originally founded by Artyom Prishchepov in Belarus in 2008 as the way close friends created music together. They composed music for years just for fun and inspiration, and the band has eventually grown over a decade: adding Yaroslav Korotkin on vocals and bass, Sergey Shulzhenko (keys and orchestration), Dmitry Sarychau on guitars, Alexander Cherepanov doing vocals and Alia Fay on flutes and female vocals. Today the musicians live around the world: Belarus, USA, Poland, China, Russia - and collaborate online. Recently they decided to re-mix and issue all of their music digitally available for everyone for free, featuring James Knoerl on drums and programming. Starting with the very first works they walk the journey again opening new chapters together. This sense of friendship is something everyone really started to value during pandemics and isolation.

CLAMORIS RELEASE "OPUS LIMBONICA"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Finnish symphonic melodic death metal band Clamoris is set to release their debut album Opus Limbonica on October 28th 2022 via Inverse Records. The first single "Rage, Rain Down on Them" is released today and lyric video is available here: https://youtu.be/xD7W8hpVo20  

 

Composer & lyricist Sami Selkäinaho comments:

" "Rage, Rain Down on Them" is the first single of our upcoming debut album, Opus Limbonica.

 

The song is the shortest song of the album and represents the fastest side of Opus Limbonica. It's the best song to kick things off as it condenses what the album is about to a tight package. Revolving around melodic delivery, the song utilizes a few symphonic, namely ones characteristic of Baroque music, concepts to aid us deliver this bitter ode to the Apocalypse. A subtle black metal presence lurks along the music, giving the offering a slightly haunted atmosphere.

Right from the beginning, it should be clear that our music is not the easiest type to pull off. Our group consists of highly competent musicians and "Rage, Rain Down on Them" also reflects this. The guitar solo by Joonas Kinnari in particular showcases the demanding side of Clamoris' output and is a taste of what to expect of Opus Limbonica, where the neoclassically inspired bitter and haunted metal concept is expanded on to great lengths."

Listen to the single on streaming services: https://push.fm/fl/clamoris-rage 

 

BIOGRAPHY:

Founded in 2017, Clamoris set out to bring to life their vision of neoclassically inspired extreme metal.

Originally planned as a two-man studio project formed by keyboardist/composer Sami Selkäinaho and vocalist/bassist Niko Peräkorpi, but feeling that due to the demanding nature of the songs a full band effort would be highly beneficial. They introduced drummer Tom Israels and guitarists Joonas Kinnari & Samuli Kaakinen to the music who, upon hearing the material, agreed to join the band.

After working out the songs for the album, rehearsing them for a while and demoing one of them on the latter half of 2018 the band felt they were ready to start working on recording the debut album, named "Opus Limbonica", which was finalized and ready for release in 2022.

EXALTATION RELEASE "UNDER BLIND REASONING"

PRESS RELEASE:

BAND: EXALTATION

TITLE: Under Blind Reasoning

COUNTRY: New Zealand

GENRES: death metal

FORMATS: LP | MC | CD | digital

RELEASE DATE: July 29 2022

TRACK LISTING:

1. Iron Rebellion

2. Impending Deceased

3. Exaltation

4. Ascension

5. Fate Revolt

6. Impious Massacre

7. Blaspheme Mortality

8. Divider of Redemption

FOR FANS OF:

Morbid Angel, Incantation, Immolation, Blasphemy, Deicide

Feral, enveloping, monumental and sprawling in its unrelenting wrath, "Under Blind Reasoning" sees the obscure New Zealand death-bringers whip the sum of their infuences (Immolation, Morbid Angel, Incantation, Deicide, Blasphemy) into a coercive realm of shelshocking torment and rise from the depths of obscurity like a cataclysmic weapon of mass-destruction. The album's dense and multidimensional recording quality has yielded a death metal beast of truly unsettling proportions.  Every instrument and the utter violence with which it is wielded appears on full display, as the listener is helplessly left annihilated, blow after to blow, to witness the band's tight, savage and merciless performance and technical proficiency literally maul down the fabric of reality piece by piece. These are death metal songs from a realm of perpetual darkness that bare a load of death and ruin of unprecedented traits. Songs of boundless terror and oblivion that evoke eons of darkness and an immanent and oppressive presage of complete inevitability as the music roars out of the speakers with ominous grimness and near-weaponized violence. All hail the realm of darkness and death conceived by Exaltation, one where the death metal craft is reborn as a feral ungovernable force to infict merciless ruin unto this mortal plane and all that dares to attempt to exist within it.
