Band:INDESINENCE
Album:INDESINENCE III
Label:Profound Lore
Format:CD
Genre:Stoner/Doom/Occult/Sludge Metal
Long-running UK doom/death band INDESINENCE have always been the premiere UK doom/death metal band over the last ten years or so, as well as being one of the most underrated. Not since the very early days of the “Peaceville Three” (aka Paradise Lost, My Dying Bride, and Anathema) has a doom/death metal band created music with such an impact and quality as INDESINENCE have.
For nearly 15 years, INDESINENCE might have not been the most prolific of bands out of the metal scene in the UK in terms of releases, with “III” being only their third full-length album, but the band have always formed their own niche within the scene and stood on their own apart from what everyone else was doing. “III”, following the massive “Vessels Of Light And Decay”, overall is the best INDESINENCE album to date, heavier, more crushing, more atmospheric and ambient than anything the band have done with their previous two albums, “III” (which features a guest appearance by Robert Roth of Seattle cult rock legends Truly as well as a cover of The Third Bardo’s “I’m Five Years Ahead (Of My Time)” is also the most varied, diverse, and dynamic INDESINENCE album yet.

Band:RON GRAINER
Album:THE PRISONER OST - WHITE VINYL
Label:NETWORK
Format:LP VINYL
Genre:Soundtrack
Thought-provoking, revelatory and just plain cool – Patrick McGoohan's iconic series is as fresh and dynamic now as it was when first unleashed upon an unsuspecting world in 1967 – and a major part of the series' individuality is its compelling and iconic music. Though Ron Grainer's bombastic, memorable theme tune is most easily recognisable, it's Albert Elms' incidental music that really shines here – ranging from the whimsical to the dramatic, and all points in between. This LP also includes contributions from Robert Farnon and Wilfred Josephs.
Specially selected from the existing music cues to form eminently listenable music suites, and featuring new transfers from the original analogue tape elements, which were then mastered and cut to vinyl at AIR studios by premiere audio engineers Ray Staff and John Webber, this Limited Edition (only 500 made) new White vinyl release is an essential purchase for all ITC aficionados and fans of cool soundtracks.

Band:EDWIN ASTLEY
Album:GIDEONS WAY - OST - LP
Label:NETWORK
Format:VINYL LP
Genre:Soundtrack
Uncompromising in its day, Gideon's Way tackled some of the darker, more disturbing facets of detective work, and this downplayed, at times neo-realist approach is reflected in Edwin Astley's incidental music score. These selections vividly conjure up a lost London of docklands, lock-up garages and dingy, gas-lit alleyways... a monochrome landscape that formed the brutal stamping ground of the villains of yesteryear. Long thought lost, original analogue tape elements were finally unearthed in 2014 and specially selected tracks from those existing music cues have been used here to create superb episodic music suites featuring the work of one of the twentieth century's premiere soundtrack composers.
Featuring new transfers from the original analogue tape elements, which were then mastered and cut to vinyl at AIR studios by premiere audio engineers Ray Staff and John Webber, this new vinyl release is an essential purchase for all ITC aficionados and fans of cool soundtracks.180g Virgin Vinyl - Gatefold Sleeve.

Band:WITCHFYNDE
Album:THE LOST TAPES OF 1975
Label:VYPER
Format:CD
Genre:Classic Rock/Metal
The discovery of WITCHFYNDE’s Lost Tapes illuminates a fascinating missing link in the history of British heavy metal. In the lull between the Purple/Zeppelin/Sabbath revolution and the angry charge of punk rock and NWOBHM, in the East Midlands county town of Derby, four lads came together to create a tentatively progressive and intriguing new sound, and get heads banging in boozers all over the Peak District. Recording a 40-minute demo of original material in 1975, WITCHFYNDE were the unwitting spearhead of the movement that was still a long way off being dubbed the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal, and from the plaintive, spacey opening of Grimoire, this earliest of artefacts is rather more nuanced and versatile than the hallowed acronym NWOBHM traditionally suggests.

ZXY was formed by the original Bass Guitarist of the NWOBHM band Witchfynde Andro Coulton, as an outlet to finally bring to the foreground his idea of a bass led rock band. In order to achieve this he invented a new way of playing Bass by using two octaves at the same time, which he has named ‘Octave Lead Bass Guitar, and with the help of Shaz Coulton pounding a full bass type Rhythm Guitar together with Kiefer Retallick with his fresh take on rock drumming., Andro has not only found a new way of playing, but also created a wall of sound that is pure nectar to the ears of rock fans and metal fans world wide.

After two demos and an EP German Vargnatt return with the anticipated follow up 'Grausammler'.

A warm bass-guitar crafts the songs and the drumming by Wiedergaenger (Total Negation, Nachts, ex- Auvandril) rounds it off while fragile string’s and choir performances done by "H.es.a.e. (Nachtreich, Ex-Eudaimony) enclose the sum. 5/6 Zero Tolerance (Uk).

Album:RIDE THE WILDERNESS - CD
Label:THIS CHARMING MAN
Format:CD
Genre:Stoner/Doom/Occult/Sludge Metal
The Vocals are reminiscend of Danzig and Year Of the Goat, but less anthemic and more gritty. The guitar sound is not overly distorted, which gives this record the taste of old spiderwebs from a tomb, but played in the fashion of Thin Lizzy.The lyrical center orbits around doom rock topics, like occults, fantasy, close to In Solitude and Cirith Ungol.Obviously these dudes gave the universe, demons and drugs a serious thought!As if the last 30 years of metal evolution weren't there, the band strikes through distorted blues riffs, spooky lyrics and mind crippling slow drum parts. This proto-doom band swings like Bill Ward, battling through guitar parts when Tommi Iommi and Victor Griffin meet in hell, topped with the reminiscient sound of Bobby Liebling.

ON BODIES plays dark, seething, highly – critical hardcore with a snarl. Formed in 2012 by vocalist Damien Moyal and bassist Rich Thurston, ON BODIES execute a distinctive brand of hardcore punk that’s just plain mean.
On “The Long Con” EP, the band barrels forward at breakneck speed, while Moyal’s vocals scold with commanding, rabid precision. And always, at the black, embittered heart of each song, is an uncomfortable and highly – critical sense of urgency and discontent. This EP is an uncompromising exploration of existential themes, and an unapologetic lambasting of organized religion and zealotry

Band:ATAVISMO
Album:DISINTEGRATION
Label:TEMPLE OF TORTUROUS
Format:LP
Genre:Prog Rock
Algeciras, Spain-based experimental space rock collective, ATAVISMO, will release their Desintegración debut Via Temple Of Torturous this June. Featuring within their ranks former members of Viaje a 800 and Mind!, ATAVISMO’s compositions are sprawling and consuming; echoing and hypnotic recalling the cosmic, jam-laden plumage of bands like Earthless, Motorpsycho, Wand and Dead Meadow. Described The Obelisk, “Desintegración… holds a world of lush and spacious heavy psychedelia within them, alternately folkish and expansive, minimal and encompassing. It doesn’t matter whether you’ve heard any of the trio’s past work in bands like the spaced-out Mind! or Viaje a 800 so much as it matters that you’re willing to loan a piece of your psyche to ‘Blazava,’ ‘Kraken,’ ‘Oceanica’ and ‘Meeh,’ and engage the thirty-seven minutes of ATAVISMO‘s debut on their own level.” The band claimed the fourth slot of the popular riff portal’s Top Ten Debut Albums Of 2014 list further praising, “Desintegración hit me like the proverbial ton of bricks. Just four songs, but the atmosphere was gorgeous…”
Initially released on CD last year on Not On Label Records, ATAVISMO’s Desintegración will be given the vinyl treatment via Temple Of Torturous on June 16, 2015 and come in a gorgeous gatefold packaging limited to 300 copies.

Band:TOTAL NEGATION
Album:ZEITZEUGE
Label:TEMPLE OF TORTUROUS
Format:DLP VINYL
Genre:Stoner/Doom/Occult/Sludge Metal
The follow-up to the 2013-issued Zur Späten Stunde | Zeiträume, which The Liar Of Filth fittingly dubbed a, “dark and challenging, yet ultimately very rewarding listening,” Zeitzeuge maintains the cold, eerie elements of its predecessor. The integration of instruments like the melodica and the vibraphone still intact, on Zeitzeuge master craftsman Wiedergaenger allows for more breathing room and breadth in his compositions. Still cold, depressive and atmospherically corrosive, Wiedergaenger manages to merge primal black metal, doom and Krautrock elements into a sound that’s at once lush, confounding, and apocalyptic. Cold, dire, twisted, diseased and bedecked in Wiedergaenger’s intense German storytelling, Zeitzeuge relays the story of a contemporary witness, who breaks under the pressure of controlling the life and death of others.

Album:ROMANTIK - LP
Label:TEMPLE OF TORTUROUS
Format:VINYL LP
Genre:Black Metal
German-based dark, primitive metal trio, VALBORG, will unleash their fifth full-length opus via Temple Of Torturous. Titled Romantik, the follow-up to 2012’s Nekrodepression, which Last Rites commended for being consistent with VALBORG’s “tradition of strange, compelling German music,” further lauding their “patient, measured aggression,” features six tracks of somber avant blackened beauty. After four albums based around experimental, skull-crushing doom, with Romantik VALBORG dives deeper into the heart-tearing atmospheres of the abyss of which they’ve so boldly explored. Ambient synthesizers collide with wistful guitars, all slowly, purposefully floating above a foundation built upon pummeling rhythms, the band’s harsh, German vocal inflections adding further terror their profoundly bleak funeral power doom. Fans of Type O Negative, Vangelis, Killing Joke and Celtic Frost/Triptykon pay heed.

Band:SVARTA
Album:SEPULTUS
Label:ATMF
Format:CD
Genre:Black Metal
An adrenaline rush, an outburst of rage broken by darkly peaceful moments is where Sepultus manifest the personality of this act from Sweden. The melodic lines are buried into an apparently chaotic aggression able to overwhelm the listener, surrounding the space in a growing maelstrom. Svarta does no simply draw a darkly persuasive form of aggression but translate also the obscure essence of the avantgardish mood of band like Ved Buens Ende, Dodheimsgard “Satanic Art” era in a dynamic form. In the extreme coexistence of those elements mid tempo are mostly banned from the horizon. A no compromise attitude aesthetic made of black & white contrasts that emphasizes a peculiar perception & feeling that slowly arouse the listener, an equilibrium made by the opposites.
