Re-Buried – Repulsive Nature (Translation Loss)

Seattle is the home of Re-Buried, a five piece Death Metal band whose inception dates back to 2018 but whose debut album is due for release later this month via Translation Loss records, who are unleashing ‘Repulsive Nature’ on LP…. Continue Reading →

Leipa – Reue (Avantgarde Music)

It’s all about blackness and abysses. The artist must have been watching Breakfast TV, or the German equivalent of it. “Reue” (Regret) is Leipa’s second album. The man behind it known as Noise is also responsible for Kanonenfieber, a more… Continue Reading →

Necropolissebeht – TTCCCLXXX (Vault of Dried Bones)

This is certainly an EP of two halves and a rather strange one too. Necropolissebeht are a collaboration between German and Canadian members Hekla (Hadopelagyal), Axaazaroth (Nuclearhammer) and errr Ryan. Now Ryan may not have wanted to play the gateway… Continue Reading →

Beyond The Black – Beyond The Black (Nuclear Blast)

As regular readers will know, every December Ave Noctum’s contributors share their Top 20 albums of that year. So where are we in this year right now? First week in January as I write this and I’m confident that I’m… Continue Reading →

Wothrosch – Odium (Hammerheart Records)

Helpfully, we are given points of reference for this debut album by Greek band Wothrosch. The reference points are the soundscape of SepticFlesh running into the fury of Anaal Nathrakh. So armed with this information, it came as no surprise… Continue Reading →

Garota – Czarne wizje (Godz ov War)

The latter reaches of 2022 saw Godz ov War Productions unleash the debut album of West Pomeranian Black Thrashing trio Garota. Entitled ‘Czarne wizje’, the album has been released on CD and features eight tracks written entirely in Polish. Like… Continue Reading →

Gra – Lycaon (Avantgarde Music)

Swedish Black Metal band Gra have returned after a five-year gap with ‘Lycaon’, their fourth studio album and their first collaboration with Italian label Avantgarde Music. As an interesting side note, it is also the first Gra album not to… Continue Reading →

Trup – Nie (Godz Ov War)

Nasty blackened filth here from the “corpse” that is Poland’s Trup. I was rather expecting this though having encountered the Warsaw based trio on previous EP Szmula and lockdown induced album Ke. Having come out of that to relative freedom… Continue Reading →

Satanic Warmaster – Aamongandr (Werewolf Records)

You could say that the name Satanic Warmaster is a bit ‘Metal band name generator’ but to be honest it’s pretty cool. It exudes evil Black Metal energy which is exactly what this band excel at. This Finnish solo force,… Continue Reading →

Thy Darkened Shade – Liber Lvcifer II: Mahapralaya (World Terror Committee)

Long running Hellenic black metal band Thy Darkened Shade kick off my new year. I assume this is a companion piece to their 2014 album but as this is my first dance with the (I think) duo I have no… Continue Reading →

Nachtmaer – Van de mare bereen (Thenra Collectivum)

We are now and not for the first time dipping into that strange affliction known as sleep paralysis. It’s terrifying to anyone who has ever experienced it and not surprising that in less enlightened times the blame was cast on… Continue Reading →

Concrete Age – Bardo Thodol (S/R)

Leafing through the PR info when this album hit my inbox, I was thinking that I recognised the band name and sure enough suddenly saw the words stating that Ave Noctum described last album Spirituality as “a vaccine to life’s… Continue Reading →
