Band:OSI AND THE JUPITER
Album:APPALACHIA (COLOUR VINYL)
Label:Eisenwald
Format:LP
Genre:NORDIC FOLK/AMERICANA/SOUNDTRACK
On Appalachia , enigmatic duo Sean Kratz (vocals, guitars, synths) and Kakophonix (cello) take us further into the unique landscapes that have been explored by Osi and the Jupiter since their formation in 2015. This time, they draw upon the surroundings of their homelands in eastern Ohio to weave dedications to the Appalachian region to which the title of this three-track EP is dedicated. In honour of this more personal wellspring of inspiration, Osi and the Jupiter s sound has evolved from the ambient soundscapes of yore into more direct expressions of yearning. Voice, ambient synth drones, acoustic guitar and cello underpin these delicate homage s to a mysterious, myth-laden region. Kratz s heartfelt, plaintive vocals speak openly of surroundings that clearly resonate deep within. Gentle strummed melodies support these tales, whilst the ever-inventive cello melodies of Kakophonix reach onwards to distant places as yet unseen. They Ride Through the Sky on Horse Drawn Chariots sets the tone with dramatic swells, leading the listener by the hand into these new realms. Appalachia follows, replete with yearning vocals and delicate, countrified picking. The Binding Will of Mountains closes this unique collection of songs with a twelve-minute journey throughout the myriad soundscapes that Osi and the Jupiter have explored throughout their existence. TRACKLIST 1. They Ride Through the Skies on Horse Drawn Chariots (05:11) 2. Appalachia (03:59) 3. The Binding Will of Mountains (12:23)

Band:MOSAIC
Album:HARVEST
Label:Eisenwald
Format:CD
Genre:DARK METAL/AVANTGARDE
MOSAIC: 15 years of Supreme Thuringian Folklore 2020 marks the 15th year since the conception and birth of MOSAIC, the evocative, enigmatic brainchild of Martin van Valkenstijn. Harvest: Songs of autumnal landscapes and melancholy spans the first 10 years of MOSAIC. It is a collection of early material, containing the very first Mosaic recordings which have been released previously only on very small runs of cassette tapes. To complete the autumnal feast the orignal Samhain Celebration song cycle was added, which complements the early material and advance it to a full-length duration. Harvest is an ode to Valkenstijn's beloved Thuringian homelands. It takes us on a journey through misty woods and foggy nights, when the golden sunlight of late summer must give in to the autumnal cold that starts rising from the ground, when the warmth of summer must yield to the chilling breeze that heralds the end of the year, when the light must give in to the dark. Valkenstijn's unique recitations of poems by Georg Trakl, Joseph Eichendorff, Max Dauthendey and more, together with his own original writings, evoke the scents of a fire crackling in the chill morning air, of mossy woods that lure the melancholic mind ever deeper into their enchanted depths. Starting off as a delicate blend of the finest neofolkloristic/-classical soundscapes think Empyrium, Sturmpercht or Rome Harvest eventually erupts into outbursts of furious black metal in the vein of Germany's éminence grise Lunar Aurora. The recordings were thoroughly reinvigorated without losing their original appeal by Valkenstijn in May MMXX at his House of Inkantation. There is profound power to be found in this release, and there is no reason to doubt anything less of Mosaic s future manifestations as well. - HEATHEN HARVEST TRACKLIST 1.Feuerspuk & Tannenreben 2.Dunkler Herbst 3.Schwarze Erde 4.Haimat 5.Golden Sunset 6.Autumn Winds 7.Inkantation: O Sun King! 8.Samhain 9.Der letzte Atem 10.Olden Hair (Blood is King Pt.

London based Green Seagull return with their new album Cloud Cover .

Band:PERMANENT CLEAR LIGHT
Album:COSMIC COMICS
Label:SULATRON
Format:CD
Genre:PSYCHEDELIC/NEO-SIXTIES/AVANTPOP
Permanent Clear Light is often referred to as Finland's top psychedelic group. PCL released their debut album, Beyond These Things, in 2014 to a high critical acclaim. After that, the group has released several singles, EPs and appeared on a number of compilation albums on the British Fruits de Mer label. Although PCL's musical roots lie in 60's psychedelia their sound is strictly contemporary. The trio considers the recording studio their main instrument, and their sound is characterised by multi-layered instrumental work and strong melodic vocals. After a creative break, PCL is finally ready to release its 2nd album, Cosmic Comics, which shows that the band has travelled a long way through the spheres since their debut. Album mastered by Krautrock legend EROC. Permanent Clear Light are: Markku Helin: lead guitar, synth & percussion Arto Kakko: drums, bass, guitar, keys & vocals Matti Laitinen: lead vocals, synth & percussion Tracklist: This Quiet Smiling Man 04:51 Corneville Skyline 04:02 Peasants and Peons 05:09 Maurice n'est pas la 09:04 Iris Murray 05:51 One In Five 03:47 Salmiac 04:06 Until The End Of Time 03:48 The Rip 03:20

Band:MOUNTAIN WITCH
Album:EXTINCT CULTS
Label:THIS CHARMING MAN RECORDS
Format:CD
Genre:70S ROCK
The new Mountain Witch record Extinct Cults will be the last before a longer break, so the both main dudes Rene & Rene decide to do it properly so why not take the main Mountain Witch doom flavour and add some new ingredients, like Organs and some nice background vocals? then record it everything the old school way and guess what: you will get a magnificent written, great sounding, genre bending 70s rock record. They jumped from 1970 to lets say 1976, took the main Black Sabbath worship and added a bit more melody here and there... Not only KADAVAR or HEAT fans will be satisfied, even more progresive stuff like early SCORPIONS or CREAM can be spotted lets say they added more 70s hardrock vibe. This all sums up to an excellent bundle of six new songs, which will be released in late may by this charming man records! Check out: Man Is Wolf To Man , Extinct Cults , The Devil, Probably!

Album:THE SHADOW OF YOUR GUARD RECEDING
Label:THIS CHARMING MAN RECORDS
Format:LP
Genre:POST-HARDCORE
Oakhands from Munich, Germany built their house right on the borders of post‐hardcore, emo and indierock. Their debut "The Shadow of Your Guard Receding”, released in Spring 2020 by This Charming Man Records, is the follow up to their critically acclaimed EP released by Uncle M in 2016. The band's new album will bring you 11 brand new tunes about family, mental health, social anxiety and masculinity in one's modern society, full of emotions and with its aesthetic compareable to the writers approach of the "Sturm & Drang“ period. To get an idea what the music sounds like take a look at the video for the track ‐ "The Parnassus" which is the Oakhands first single from the upcoming album. Jump to This Location for the video. Their musical complexity and metaphorical abstraction in the form of storytelling may seem a bit artsy and stand in contrast to their stripped down live performances. Even so, they challenge the listener and bring an entirely new sound to "The Shadow of Your Guard Receding“, which will be visualized by 7 conceptual videos telling one story on 3 different layers – so please dive into the world of Oakhands with all your concentration and passion you have for this adventurous piece of music.

Band:WAYWARD
Album:WAYWARD
Label:THIS CHARMING MAN RECORDS
Format:CD
Genre:70S ROCK/POWER ROCK
Heads up! Look out! It's Getting Wild! Four lads from Leipzig, Germany, (two of which also perform in the band Deathrite), founded a new band called Wayward! They are out to play some nasty rock'n'roll, like holy Motörhead in 1979 wielding the quintessential theme of destruction at every gig, just for the hell of it! The band attended the same school, teaching themselves how to play dirty, streetrock like Fast Eddie Clarke. One can instantly recognize their love for hard rock and early NWOBHM, listener’s can hear traces of the pre-Mercyful Fate gang, or perhaps The Brats teaming up with Girlschool; sounds resonating with very early Judas Priest or Tank. Back in the golden days where the borders between rock, punk or metal weren't as clearly divided as today, Wayward would have easily fit in, free from modern influence.

Genre:DARK AMBIENT/AMBIENT
Dead Melodies serves us a soundtrack to a dystopian future where cybernetic hacking has wiped most of the population, an overgrown world painted with dark drones The rise in blackmarket mods of the amaranthine expansion had exposed more vulnerabilities than The World Council could patch. Originally promised to provide users with next-gen intersensory integration in The Cyberzone, but a bad code in the mod had revealed a port directly into the cerebral cortex, giving full access and control of the mind, thus kicking off a race between the Council's Cyber Security Agency and hacker groups to either patch or exploit the port.

Genre:ETHEREAL/NEO CLASSICAL/AMBIENT
Arcana are travelling ways that Dead Can Dance walked in years passed, here on "...The Last Embrace" they are creating soundscapes clearly inspired by "Within The Realm Of A Dying Sun" and "Spleen And Ideal", and the result is an elegant, weighty work of art, widescreen in its ambition if at times strangely claustrophobic in its delivery. The mood throughout inspires images of shadowy cathedrals, autumnal woodlands, it feels distinctly black-and-white, and indeed the beautiful artwork on the sleeve impresses this sense from the outset.

Genre:INDIE/PUNK
First EP of a promising German Indie Punk Band in the vibes of IRON CHIC & SPANISH LOVE SONGS. Between Bodies started out as a creative valve for most of us to either write songs, riffs and lyrics that didn't really find a place in the other bands we are or were in or to finally play another instrument than we all do in those aforementioned projects. So they got together, wrote the EP over the course of a year via Dropbox folders and one-man demos and recorded all six songs with Paras at Level 3 Entertainment Studio in Essen to keep the crappy-demo phase internally to ourselves. Luckily, the plan worked well...

Band:FLESHVESSEL
Album:BILE OF MAN REBORN
Label:I, VOIDHANGER RECORDS
Format:CDD
Genre:AVANTGARDE DEATH METAL
Come out of the blue and lead by talented Alexander Torres, the US entity known as FLESHVESSEL belongs to those few, illuminated contemporary acts that don't fear to experiment with metal music, harmonizing it with other genres and mutating it into something entirely new without compromising its stylistic prerogatives or emotional connotations. In “Bile of Man Reborn”, the band's debut EP, the dark and slanted death metal of PHLEBOTOMIZED and DEMILICH is often gives way to atmospheric parenthesis where a classical instrumentation of whistles, flute, viola, harp and keyboards embroiders rich textures of luminous elegance, celebrating the conciliation of the opposites. “Bile of Man Reborn” is one single 24-minute long track divided into three chapters, an impressive suite of mutant death metal where furious and scorching riffs, cavernous growls and sledgehammering drums are interwoven to jazz-fusion and progressive melodies. The first part of the track sounds as if FLESHVESSEL had dug up the putrefied cadaver of MAHAVISHNU ORCHESTRA for one last spiritual voyage of theirs, while the second chapter is a chamber music observation, with sparse notes of piano and wind instruments anticipating the return of devastating death metal guitars, engaged in powerful riffs or searing solos dissolving into delicate freak-folk arpeggios before a final crescendo of poignant beauty. As in Alexander Torres' own words, FLESHVESSEL's “Bile of Man Reborn” is “an exploration of the human condition and our infliction of duality upon the world. The music is representative of the confusion, suffering, and anger we all see and experience daily, but also the hope that still remains."

Band:YSENGRIN
Album:INITIATIO
Label:I, VOIDHANGER RECORDS
Format:CD
Genre:BLACK METAL/DARK METAL
Hailing from France and guided by Guido Saint Roch, YSENGRIN celebrate 15 years of underground activity by releasing their final dark metal opus on the long distance, “Initiatio”, to be followed later this year by the last volume in the band's alchemic series of split albums. On “Initiatio” YSENGRIN reinterpret 5 tracks from their illustrious past, changing them profoundly, revisiting their arrangements and expanding their sonic palette without betraying their original essence. To four songs taken from “T.R.I.A.D.E” (the first demo from 2008), Saint Roch and his acolytes add the track “Monumentum” (from the "Archivum MMV-MMX" demo, 2010) as well as 4 new compositions, including two ambient numbers recorded live with the help of Frater Stéphane (N.K.R.T., ROSA CRUX). “Initiatio” is therefore an ouroboros serpent biting its tail: the end is the beginning, and the beginning becomes the end. Trapped in an eternal cycle of birth, death and transformation, YSENGRIN offer an initiation ritual dense of occult symbolism (the number “9” and the "Y" letter are recurring elements), to be performed at the crossroad of virtue and vice.

Band:HERXHEIM
Album:INCISED ARRIVAL
Label:I, VOIDHANGER RECORDS
Format:CDD
Genre:MEPHISTIC BLACK DOOM
Conjured from the ashes of HOWLS OF EBB by sole member Brungard, HERXHEIM return with their first fulllength album, "Incised Arrival". A direct descendant of the "Cultivating Throne of Fur" demo (2019), "Incised Arrival" unravels further into a heavier and more concise form of its near-relative. In this 37-minute display of gut-punching raw power, wicked melodies slither in and out of slow to mid-paced and faster compositions where nothing is forced or superfluous. The sound of the album is quite natural, but wild; one foot rooted circa 86'-93', the other hammers chest right to the present. The guitars scream and scratch machine-like, while Brungard offers a treacherous, powerful vocal performance. The howling resonance of keyboards, combined with brutal drum and bass guitar play, gel into this single unit of hammered deliverance. Lyrically, Brungard explains, "this album thematically follows the demo. It centers around the human condition, each song is a 'Mephistic Fable', tales of warning and wrath." The prowess and vigor of these 6 songs deliver the message well: this is indeed Mephistic Black Doom Metal for the wretched soul.

The album consists of 9 numbers, equally divided between black metal epics like “The Murder Of Wat Tyler” and “Storm The Walls of Mystras”, and a handful of covers from the Medieval folklore and the Ars Nova repertoire, used as atmospheric interludes and masterfully interpreted with the help of illustrious guest musicians from LÜÜP, ART OF SIMPLICITY, NEDA and SPIDER OF PNYX. Slightly rawer than Ayloss' other project, yet equally imaginative and progressive, “Castles Conquered and Reclaimed” mixes some of the aggressiveness from SPECTRAL LORE's “Sentinel” with the folk melodies of “Gnosis”, but there's no doubt that MYSTRAS take on a life of their own thanks to a vibrant and convincing songwriting built on fast, savage riffs, strong melodies and majestic atmospheres perfectly married to a unique concept.
