(4 new tracks recorded in late 2011. Digipak version limited to 200 copies. Old, heavy, classic, twisted death metal.)
$15 AUS/ $19 US /15 Euro

***STARGAZER...."A Great Work of Ages" - CD
(Brand new full length album. Known as one of the most unique and creative bands that have dwelled within the death metal underground since the Australian horde’s
inception almost 20 years ago, STARGAZER’s brand of complex esoteric death metal is unlike anything out there, a bizarre entity that create magik through intricately
woven musical chaos.)

***MISOGI....." Tofotukami Wemitamafe" - CD
(Black / Death Metal from Japan. Members from the now-defunct Magane. Pretty much a continuation from Magane's style. Weird and obscure, with many
influences from traditional Japanese music. Blended with the classic metal, you'll hear flutes, koto's, keys, chanted vocals....A real feast of obscurity with so many
killer riffs and drum beats you'll instantly become attached. Definitely for fans of Sigh, after all, noone but the Japanese can create this sort of maelstrom.)

***CAULDRON BLACK RAM....."Slubberdegullion" - CD
(Australia's death metal pirates return with the follow-up to their 2003 debut album "Skulduggery". They deliver a concept album that will instantly transport you to
an era of sea-faring skulduggery and voracious villainy. Down-tuned, heavy and older schooled riffs set to twisting labyrinthine rhythms, topped with a variation of nasty vocal styles
which perfectly personify the pantheon of rogue-like characters set forth in the Slubberdegullion saga. Original and essential!)

***PORTAL...."Seepia" - CD
(The first album from Australia's antique horror death metal gods. Re-pressed version from Ordo Decimus Peccatum Records.)

***PORTAL...."Outre" - CD
(The second album from Australia's antique horror death metal gods. Re-pressed version from Ordo Decimus Peccatum Records.)

***MISERY'S OMEN....."Hope Dies" - CD
(Back in stock! Australia's finest exponents of abysmal, progressive bleak metal. The album incorporates
all the obscurites of previous releases, and is perfectly well rounded. From terrifying fast and harsh extremities, to subtle melodic melancholy, to vast and epic disharmony,
all performed with a quality and ability rarely heard in these genres.)

***THE ESOTERIC CONNEXION......"Metaphysicult" - CD EP
(A band featuring members of Mournful Congregation and Stargazer among others. With influence from Secret Chiefs 3, Mr Bungle, Ennio Morricone,
Frank Zappa and King Crimson among many others, plus many different musical styles including progressive rock/ metal, western soundtrack,
jazz fusion, ambient and world music, and pure musical experimentation. At times heavy, at times mellow and at times epic.)
$5 Aus/ $6 US/ 5 Euro

***THE ESOTERIC CONNEXION......"Metaphysicult II" - CD EP
(The second esoteric installment for 2009. Shows growing ambience and originality. Many epic and weird moments, containing all the previous styles explored,
plus alot more.)
$5 Aus/ $6 US/ 5 Euro

***DIMENTIANON...."Collapse The Void" - CD
(New Yorks' deadliest force of death and black demonicism is back with their latest album. Great punchy drum sounds drive this attack forth with much dynamism and variation.
As intense as they are, there is often room to breath with lulling atmospheric passages with great emotive qualities presented. This album cannot go unnoticed.)

***SECTIONED...."Purulent Reality" - CD
(A strong US death metal deity emerged in 2006; Sectioned. Shades of Floridian Death Metal, merged with good old Swedish Death Metal, this is death in the truest sense.)

***DARK CELEBRATION...."Phlegeton: The Transcendance of the Demon Lords" - CD
(Brazilian lords Dark Celebration offer a convincing slab of tradition-inspired death. Inspirations from elder gods such as The Chasm, Diabolic, Krisiun and Morbid Angel can be heard,
surprisingley blended with great classic heavy metal riffing.)

***MURKRAT...."Drudging The Mire" - CD
(The second album from Australia's Murkrat is here from the always-reliable Aesthetic Death Records. The twisted vision of Mandy VKS Cattleprod is further explored here on this
new opus, a very strong development from the debut. A spiral of filth and depravity mixed with enchanting melodiousness, an ultimate travel through the vast lands of decrepit
and twisted DOOM. Original and unique to say the least.

***WRECK OF THE HESPERUS...."Light Rotting Out" - CD
(Second album from these Irish sludgelords. A strong continuation from what they started on their debut a few years back. Packaging on this is insanely cool.
A DVD-sized card folder contains the disc with a seperate card for each song with seperate art/ lyrics. Something to behold whilst you journey into the web of doomed sludge
they draw you into.

***DESTRUKTOR...."Nailed" - CD
(The first full length album from Australia's own, following their brilliant "Nuclear Storm" MCD/ MLP from 2004. Heavier and darker than ever, but with unmatched intensity, speed and blasphemy,
this would rip Christ's head from his crucified shoulders within seconds. Hell's Headbangers deliver the goods once again.)

***NECROVATION..."Breed Deadness Blood" - CD (2nd Hand)
(Debut album from underground Swedish Death Metal horde. Great to hear such a band come out of Sweden to show the true spirit is still there...old schooled,
blasphemous darkened death all the way. Released by Blood Harvest Records in 2008.)

***NAZXUL...."Totem" - CD
(1995 debut full length re-release by Eisenwald Recs. Excellent layout and design for this occult tome of the ages.)

***NAZXUL...."Black Seed" - CD
(The latest re-release of the classic "Black Seed" EP from Seance Records, featuring the "Black Seed" EP, the now classic first demo from 1994, plus 2 live tracks.)

***NAZXUL....."Iconoclast" - CD
(Latest album from one of Australia's longer-running black metal cults. After a lengthy wait we are finally reprieved with this jewel of epic riffing, epic atmosphere and epic
artistry. It is obvious the years of planning that have gone into this recording have not been wasted.)

***PESTILENTIAL SHADOWS....Depths - CD
(Latest album from these Australian Black Metal hedonists. Art, layout, atmosphere, production, songs all deserve equal praise.)

***ROTE MARE...."Sorrow's Path" - CD
(Debut demo/ MCD from this Australian Traditional Doom Metal monster. Excellent debut in all respects for this style. They set a high standard for their future works.)
$10 Aus/ $12 US/ 8 Euro

***DENOUNCEMENT PYRE...."World Cremation" - CD
(The debut long player is here from Melbourne's black and death impurists. After a healthy offering of demo's, 7"s and splits since 2004, they deliver their masterwork
to us in 2010. More often than not speedy and intense, with no lack of aggressive blackness throughout. Solid riffing and drumming, delivered through the mighty
Hell's Headbangers Records.

***IGNIVOMOUS...."Death Transmutation" - CD
(The debut full length of Melbourne's kings of low, crushing, dark and heavy as fuck mercurial death metal. It will crush you, bleed you and then suffocate you.
Also available here on LP. Both released through NWN!)

***GRAVE MIASMA....."Exalted Emanation" - CD
(Dark Death Metal levitation from the UK. Great fucking atmosphere and production....eerie and mystical. Shades of classic early 90's style like Immolation's first album, Sadistic Intent
and Mystifier. One of the best, if not THE best within the upcropping of so many new dark and heavy death metal bands. Don't wade through the crap, just get this!)

***GRAND BELIAL'S KEY/ ABSURD/ SIGRBLOT...."Wetenfeind" - CD
(Great tracks from all bands. All previously unreleased recordings. Killer artwork and layout. A special release not to be missed)

***SHACKLES...."Traitor's Gate" - CD
(After 2 classic demo's, a 7" and demo pressed on MCD, the inevitable full length is here. Their reputation for deadly thrash, speed and heavy metal is only strengthened here.
Those who crave the old sound of classic Australian black thrashing metal of death will be rewarded with this...It's a bona-fide headbanger!!!)

***SHRAPNEL....."Hellbound" - CD
(Debut CD from Western Australia's thrash metal inferno. Tight, ripping drumming and riffing, very much influenced by the harsher 80's thrash style, aswell as Aussie black thrash.
Perfect for rabid drinking and headbanging! An inferno is the perfect description.
$16 Aus/ $17 US/ 12 Euro

***ONE STEP BEYOND....."Life Imitates Art" - CD
(The re-issue of their debut album from 2001 through Grindhead Records. Driven by impeccable bass-guitar work, One Step Beyond balance equal parts of brutality, blasting, groove and
unabated catchiness while splicing elements of modern and more classic extreme metal and a flair for incorporating a wide range of experimental influences including (but not limited to)
circus music, rock n' roll, reggae, ambience, psychedelia and style-oozing, slap-bass porno-funk that would leave Les Claypool feeling inadequate. All this wrapped in a total Death/Grind atmosphere)

***ONE STEP BEYOND...."Beyond Good And Evil" - CD
(The second album from 2007. Driven by impeccable bass-guitar work, One Step Beyond balance equal parts of brutality, blasting, groove and unabated catchiness while splicing elements
of modern and more classic extreme metal and a flair for incorporating a wide range of experimental influences including (but not limited to) circus music, rock n' roll, reggae, ambience, psychedelia
and style-oozing, slap-bass porno-funk that would leave Les Claypool feeling inadequate. All this wrapped in a total Death/Grind atmosphere, they further their legacy with this second offering)

***KRALLICE....."Krallice" - CD
(Time-stretching awe-inspiring twisted black metal from the US. Weaving guitar harmonies galore, timing changes out of nowhere, and an epic and emotive aura.
Brilliant and fresh sounding. Profound Lore Recs release)

***KRALLICE....."Dimensional Bleedthrough" - CD
(Second album of time-stretching awe-inspiring twisted black metal from the US. Weaving guitar harmonies galore, timing changes out of nowhere, and an epic and emotive aura.
A brilliant and fresh sounding follow-up to the debut. Profound Lore Recs release)

***'NEATH....."The Small Untruths" - CD
(The second album from Australia's 'Neath. A perfect continuation and progression from the debut CD also available here. Definately becoming more
original with this release, it has a nice organic production, and musically and vocally carries one through enough weird and dark atmospheres to leave one
hanging for more)

***'NEATH......"The Spiders Sleep" - CD
(Described as 'Progressive Death Metal', this is an awesome and unexpected release from Australia. The quality of underground Australian releases are improving and diversifying
and this is one band to prove that. The production is great - heavy, thick and atmospheric. The music utilises chordal guitar work, lush keys, vast clean vocals, death vocals, and creative
drumming to make a whole that is rather astounding. Comparisons I can draw are perhaps Edge of Sanity and shades of Pan Thy Monium. Obsidian Records deliver the goods!)

***ORACLE OF THE VOID...."Further Steps to a Perfect World" - CD
(Finally Australia's OOTV release their debut album. Given their long history it's not surprising that this is, in my opinion, a masterpiece of dark art. Sinister black metal sound
with many death metal leanings. The many death and black vocals styles make for a real journey into a bleak world, laden with intricate and emotive riffing.
A real gem that rarely comes along)

***DEFAMER...."Chasm" - CD
(After 2 demo's, QLD's Defamer release their debut album. Dark death metal, more in the old 90's underground style. Never straying from brutal intensity,
but never too repetitive either. Lots of crafty riffing and guitar solo's, with ever shifting rhythms no doubt inspired from the last 20 years of real death metal!)

***IRONWOOD...."Storm Over Sea" - CD
(The second full length is here from Sydney's Pagan/ Folk/ Black/ Death Metal-hybrid masters. I say masters because they have been at it for quite a long time now,
and with this album they have truely honed many aspects of the style to near perfection. The heavy stuff on this is most impressive, at times complex and twisted, and at times moody and epic.
Very layered and intricate passages allow for all instruments to shine and impress equally in a way I find to be organic and purposeful, not just wankery!!!
However I feel some of the purely acoustic and vocal-laden songs may put a few people off due to the vocal style. But there is more than enough heaviness to counteract this.

***IRONWOOD.....":Fire:Water:Ash:" - CD
(The debut album of Sydney's Ironwood is here. Their brand of elemental nature worship is immediately evident, if not by the album's title, then by the music.
The pure folkish elements are set forth by the many acoustic guitar and organic clean vocal tracks spread over this album. But this folkish style carries over
into their heavy, often speedy, black metalish songs aswell. Given that 3 of the 4 members perform vocals, you can expect a nice variation of vocals throughout)

***IRONWOOD....."s/t" - Pro Demo CD/ EP
(A relatively new band hailing from Sydney, Australia deliver this unique glimpse into their sound and concept. Described by themselves as dark, earthy
and transcendental music, I would add that it is reminiscent of the folky, Scandinavian style of black metal, with a healthy dose of Australian originality.
Clean and dirty vocals, fast and slow moments, clean and heavy sections make this an interesting listen extremely worthy of the worlds' attention)
$7Aus/ $7 US/ 6 Euro

***NOCTURNAL....."Nocturnal" - MCD
(The Cave has picked up one from the vaults here....in the 90's, Nocturnal were THE only South Australian one-man Black Metal band in existence, and possibly
in Australia. Listening to this disc now, recorded in 1997, one has all the old feelings return. A sound reminiscent of Burzum and early Dark Throne among many others,
this is recommended to all Black Metal fiends wanting a taste of old underground occultism!!!!)

***NOCTURNAL...."To The Far Horizons" - MCD
(The second opus from Nocturnal recorded in 1999. Once again, similair attributes to the earlier release, but more meditative and cold. A precusor to the
'Suicidal' Black Metal style of this era. The morbid vibe on these recordings just will not die!!!! Classic.)

***TOIL...."Obscene Chasms" - CD
(Obscure and massive ambient black metal featuring Nazxul member.)

***TZUN TZU....."Without Zen" - MCD
(Same as above but this release is a little rawer and less restrained, recorded in 2005. The beginnings of Tzun Tzu well worth the exploration.)

***BEYOND MORTAL DREAMS......"From Hell" - CD
(Some of the most HEAVY death metal produced for years. Imagine Nile and Darklord taking a cocktail of speed and heroin together. This is what they might produce.
A mainstay for years in the Adelaide Metal scene, this band features ex- Oni bassist/ vocalist and ex Oni/ Stargazer drummer. Dark and brutal as it comes.)

***MARTIRE/ THRONEUM....."Split" - CD
(Last and hard to get copies of this classic split featuring Martire tracks recorded between 1997 and 1999, and Throneum tracks recorded in 2003.
Released on the now defunct Australian label Apocalyptor Records. Buy while you can....)

***WITHER....."s/t" - MCD
(Australia's Wither deliver some transcendental meditation put to music for those with a black heart. A bleak and ethereal quality pervades every inch of music,
due to the constant rhythm, black metal-esque chords and vocals, and the warm, ambient production. Not one for a sunny day. Features the 2 dirges from
their 7" plus 2 extra tracks.)

***THE SLOW DEATH....."s/t" - CD
(From the surrounding mountains of old Sydney town come The Slow Death. A full length album capturing the feeling of plague and black death
like no other. Lyrically, almost a documentation of the plague era. Musically, melodic Doom, with ethereal melodies, operatic female vocals, and low death
vocals. Featuring members of Stone Wings, Murkrat and Corpsickle)

***FUNERAL MOTH....."s/t" - CD
(Weird Doom from Japan. Featuring Makoto from Weird Truth Prod's on guitar/ vocals. Clean, tight sound...heavy, sparse and morbid as fuck.
This is some of the bleakest Funeral Doom heard for a while. Snail pace with droning low death vox not unlike Disembowelment. Highly recommended
to all funeral doom fans. With some Japanese weirdness thrown in. Bleak, bleak, bleak.

***ATARAXIE....."Anhedonie" - CD
(The second album from French Doom masters. Great quality production. A nice development from their first release. Still maintaining their death/ doom style,
with perhaps more variety this time. A few faster moments only add to the listenability. )

***QUERCUS....."Postvorta" - CD
(Avantgarde Death and Doom like only Czech bands can do. Why are Czech bands so obscure? The first track is a great epic Doom track, 20 minutes long, touching on sounds of Unholy
and Evoken. Great stuff. As it moves on it keeps these styles but seems to add some more clean vocals - male and female- and go in some weird atmospheric directions.
Like I said, I can only explain it as that weird Czech feel. Imagine Root and Master's Hammer doing some weird Doom.)

***A.D. MASSACRE...."Insignificance" - CD
(Here's some fresh blood from Australian shores definately worth checking out. One of those death metal bands that is fresh, in that their music
is creative, it moves, with classic riffs, all the while maintaining a pure death metal feel with no gay or cheesy shit. Not always easy to pull off! Reminds
me of some of the classic underground 90's death metal like Seance, Dismember, Deceased etc. 32 minutes.)

***STORM BREEDER......"Storm Breeder" - MCD
(The debut MCD from South Australia's Storm Breeder! Classic, ripping thrash/ speed and heavy metal with extremely tight riffing, darkly melodic overtones throughout,
and pure, undeniable aggression! Plenty of dual guitar interaction and tight-as-hell drumming. Shades of At The Gates, Late 80's/ Early 90's Megadeth, Late 80's/ Early 90's Metallica
and many others from this era. 36 minutes including the most competent cover of Metallica's 'One' you're ever likely to hear!)

***QUASAR....."Tales of Arcana" - CD
(The debut full length from Adelaide, South Australia's Quasar. It's great to see fresh blood streaming forth from under the Southern skies once again! Although
the musicians behind this enigmatic band have been involved in bands for the last 10 years or more. That is to say this is a professional and experienced metal
excursion indeed. The basis of their music is an epic black metal style, perhaps similair to Summoning, Enslaved and Bethlehem in ways, but there are many
layers added - lots of acoustic guitars mixed in with heavy, percussion, vocal variation, all engulfed in definate 70's Pink Floyd-esque sensibility. Fuckin' great!!!)

***THE DEAD...."The Dead" - CD
(Extreme, intense underground Death Metal. From Queensland, Australia, and featuring Scott Edgar also from Misery - you know you are getting a quality and experienced band here.
Obsidian Records release.)

***SWORD TOWARD SELF...."Dissolution Mantras" - MCD
(The debut MCD from Sydney death metal extremists. Reminds one of mid-era Death (musically) in parts, and this is great considering Australia is lacking bands that can pull off this style so well. But this is only one aspect of the band. Overall very epic, very musically proficient in all areas (guitar leads, bass and drumming), and great production. I recommend this
highly to people searching for REAL Death Metal that is not generic and boring in the least. It's amazing that three songs can reveal so much musical aspiration!)

***DEAD INSIDE......"Dead Inside" - CD
(New release from this Belgian horde - and what a fucking release!!! A mix of something between latter Dark Throne, Tulus and Autopsy, this has such a classic,
original and headbanging vibe we simply had to stock it. So much metal integrity in sound and style, and the production is big, powerful and rawly organic.
The variation throughout the album is what keeps this from being just another album in this modern age of underground shit, just like an old Autopsy album.....)

***EYES OF LIGEIA......"A Fever Which Would Cling To Thee Forever" - CD
(New from US's Paragon Records. I can definately hear shades of Asphyx and Morgoth in this. Picture those bands with a more early Katatonia-styled atmosphere and you are getting close.
Being a fan of all three of these said bands, I can safely recommend them highly!)

***VULPECULA......"In Dusk Apparition" - MCD
(This much needed gem features four Vulpecula originals, plus one cover song from 1996 and 1997/8. A must have for fans of Vulpecula considering their releases are few
and somewhat hard to find. Great liner notes revealing insight into the enigmatic nature of Vulpecula. Released on Invictus Productions)

***THE FUROR......"Invert Absolute" - CD
(Speed driven Black Metal with epic riffage. A touch of the Scandinavian flame, but of course with the utter brutality of Australian spirit!)

***THE FUROR......."Advance Australia Warfare" - CD
(The album title says it all! This is of course a step forward from their last album, and once again seeks to pummel the listener with speed and epic blackness.
Australian hordes may have seen them live on tour in the last year or so...their CD's bring forth the same splendidly evil vibe)

***DEAD OF WINTER.......CD
(Canadian blasting and brutal as hell black metal. The speed is mind warping and the atmosphere is black as it comes!)

~~~ CASSETTES ~~~

***DEVIL ANCESTRY...."Unleash" - Cassette
(Debut demo offering from this new Australian band. Heavy and necro as fuck. Imagine barbarians wielding instruments for the first time....low death vox,
heavy distortion and pounding drum beats.)

$15 Aus/ $17 US/ 14 Euro

***WITHER....."Wither" - 7"EP
(Here is the second release from Australia's Wither, the follow up to their split 12" released through Painiac Records last year. This is like transcendental meditation put to music.
A bleak and ethereal quality pervades every inch of music, due to the constant rhythm, black metal-esque chords and vocals, and the warm, ambient production. Not one for a sunny day)
