Featuring members of Sarcolytic, Sect Of Execration, Images of Violence, ID and Whore Of Bethlehem this is absolutely merciless golden-era brutal death coming straight out of Texas!
A group of Texas all-stars, Infuriate was founded in late 2015 in Austin by Sterling Junkin (Id, Widower, Laughing and Lying, Venereal Baptism) and Steven Watkins (Serpentian, Sect of Execration, Sarcolytic, Images of Violence). Quick to jump on board were James Vandenberg (Whore of Bethlehem) and Jason Garza (Id, Blast Perversion, Slow Grind). Needing some low end, Alan Berryman (Whore of Bethlehem, Cathexis) was summoned for bass duties and a full line up was quickly formed. After a few months, James Vandenberg parted ways on good terms. That left Infuriate with vocal and lyrical duties to deal with. Sterling stepped up for lyric writing and Jason was a perfect fit for vocal and guitar duties. A practice session was recorded by A.R. Mendez and was later used as demonstration material which can be found on their bandcamp as well as Everlasting Spew bandcamp. After about a year and a half of songwriting, 9 tracks had been arranged for Infuriate's debut self titled album. The album contains a wide range of sinister topics that focus mainly on the brutal side of nature and unconscientious human behavior. The music is highly influenced by late 90's death metal with a modern speed. All artwork for the album was done by the legendary Jon Zig. Images for every song were made for a more vivid lyric booklet. A.R. Mendez was again requested for Producing duties.

___________________________
Finland's KHANUS introduced themselves to the metal audience in 2016 with the “Rites Of Fire” EP, a piece of shamanic metal of death perfectly underlining the ritualistic feel and the spiritual qualities of their music. Two years later, the band is back with its first full-length album, “Flammarion”, a monumental achievement that confirms the uniqueness of their proposal.
KHANUS' music oscillates between trance-inducing melodies almost bordering on hypnotic psychedelia and the primitive pulse of black/death metal, all seen through a distorting avant-garde lens that exalts the weirdness of the style without sacrificing brutality and aggressiveness. Together with LordT's powerful drumming, Sovereign's theatrical growls and nervous guitar playing incarnate the primordial side of KHANUS, while Meltiis' majestic soprano choirs play a more spiritual chord, adding a distinctive touch to the music, always incredibly dense and richly textured.
Boldly opening with a truly personal revisitation of DARKTHRONE's “The Serpent's Harvest”, “Flammarion” is a modern grimoire which deciphers the unfathomable depths of human soul by revealing its mystical and divine origins, as reflected in the pagan magic, occultism, mythology, ancient superstitions and esoteric knowledges that crossed mankind's path throughout the millennia. KHANUS' “Flammarion” owns the irresistible charm of all that sacred culture, and burns it alive at the stake of underground metal.

_____________________________
Five years after the impressive debut of “Incendiary Serum”, Denmark's PHANTOM have once more unearthed themselves from shallow graves to unleash their particular blend of death-worshipping paranormal black metal on the world. “Death Epic” is the lamenting of carcasses brought back to life, writhing in their own blood while moaning for death to claim them once more.
PHANTOM's black metal is sharp yet very melodic, perfectly balanced between pernicious mid-tempos and aggressive accelerations, with conspicuous injections of keyboards, clean vocals and guitar solos that concur to the grandiose, mournful and gothic atmospheres wrapping each song up in a black shroud.
Lyrically, the band crafts bloody tales of vengeful, malign spirits tormenting the living; so much that the album ends up looking like a little book of horrors in audial form, where choirs of unholy ghosts manifest themselves to sing and praise the disgusting yet fascinating magnificence of post-mortem existence and of her seductive Queen, beautifully rendered in Carl Bloch's drawing adorning the album cover. PHANTOM's “Death Epic” is the freezing chill of night as it blankets your soul.

Construct Of Lethe return with their darkest album to date, putting top tier musicianship at the service of old school roots and ominous atmospheres.
Featuring members from Near Death Condition and Benighted.
Construct of Lethe is a band born of evolution.
Begun by guitarist Tony Petrocelly in 2010 to consolidate and release music written for previous bands that broke up before proper recordings could be made, it has grown into a beast of its own.
The band's 2016 debut album "Corpsegod" is a furious assault of blasting, technical death, while their follow-up EP "The Grand Machination" traded brutality for suffocating atmosphere.
2018 will see the release of their 2nd album "Exiler", their most dynamic and varied release to date. Rooted in solid, thought out death metal, the songwriting delves into black metal, doom, the avant garde and back without becoming a slavish regurgitation of influences, it is calculated and determined, showing a band reaching beyond tired genre cliches. Recorded at Trepan Studios, the album sounds simultaneously organic and modern, fitting the material like a glove.
For fans of Morbid Angel (F & G), Ulcerate, Immolation, Altars

________________________
Eight years into their existence, Oakland CA’s dark doom destroyers ABSTRACTER return with their third full-length album, “Cinereous Incarnate”, essentially their own soundtrack to the end of all that is. Unraveling a blood-curdling sonic ordeal about a nightmarish dimension cursed to eternal twilight, where reality is torn to pieces and existence is reduced to the final stages of survival, ABSTRACTER describe a world in which the lines between life and hell have been vaporized as existence sinks into a tormented shadowzone obscured by falling ash and nuclear fallout.
Through a suffocating deluge of colossal riffs and dismal atmospheres that defy any clear categorization, ABSTRACTER’s hallucinated and apocalyptic music oozes with an immanent and oppressive sense of defeat and of unravelling hope, fusing together crust, black, doom, death metal, and cancerous strains of noise, drone, and dark ambient. “Cinereous Incarnate” is a catastrophic album, an oppressively apocalyptic and hallucinatory listen. At the core of the earth-shaking sonic annihilation of the music lies a vast and intelligible plethora of influences ranging from Blut Aus Nord, Dystopia, Swans, Disembowelment, to Sutekh Hexen, and Celtic Frost. ABSTRACTER have coerced them together and collapsed on top of each other to erect an obsidian black wall of monstrous sound that levitates out of solid darkness. It crushes and devours everything in its path, and conjures the same nightmarish and antihuman atmospheres of bands like Dragged Into Sunlight, Indian, Primitive Man, Krypts, Coffinworm, and Triptykon.
Recorded and mixed by Greg Wilkinson at Earhammer Studios (Vastum, Undergang, Acephalix, Autopsy) in Oakland CA, and mastered at Audiosiege in Portland OR by Brad Boatright (Nails, Wolfbrigade, Full of Hell, Vallenfyre), “Cinereous Incarnate” comes with an appallingly dense, layered, and oppressive production, and features haunting dark ambient soundscapes and noise contributions by Sutekh Hexen’s own visual/noise luminary Kevin Gan Yuen (who also curated the album’s apocalyptic art) and by San Francisco-based dark industrial musician Only Now - an unholy alliance which has yielded a sonic behemoth unlike anything else with an absolutely annihilating and otherworldly sound.
A monumental achievement in extreme doom, ABSTRACTER’s “Cinereus Incarnate” is a work which unifies every concept of sonic oppression imaginable and which is set to be one of the most helplessly darkening and soul-crushing albums released this year in the realm of fringe strains of doom, death, black, drone metal, crust, and beyond.
