Silent for a few years but it is time to step into the light and “Saturnian Black Magick” of Inconcessus Lux Lucis once more. I think that I am beginning to get illumination from the Manchester based act finally following… Continue Reading →
Heavy as a heavy thing – that is the best way to describe Thou from Baton Rouge. They steamrollered into my ears during the cursed pandemic with their magnificent collaboration project “May Our Chambers Be Full”. The question I had at… Continue Reading →
Although this is a debut album, there’s a good deal of experience in Parfaxitas, including contributions by members of Slidhr, Suffering Hour and Oculus. Described as intricate black metal, “Weaver of the Black Moon” is put forward as “a grand… Continue Reading →
