December 13, 2024 Release Highlights:
Mörk Gryning, Fasornas Tid (Season Of Mist):
The Swedish black metal band release their seventh studio effort, which their label describes as “a brutal homage to the scene’s raw ferocity and ageless spirit.”
Fatal Embrace, Hail Down Deep (Black Lion):
Recorded in 1998, the band’s second album was shelved when their members’ careers started to diverge. Now back together, they re-recorded the vocals with Henric Serholt at the mic and unleashed it into the world.
Dark Embrace, Land of Witches (Massacre):
According to their website, the heavy metal band’s fourth studio effort “includes the darkest influences of their motherland Galicia (Terra de Meigas) and oversize the dark essence of their own style on a more mature way.”
Orbiter, Distorted Folklore (Salvaged):
The doomgaze band blends “heavy riffs and ethereal melodies” on their second full-length album.
