GILLAN - FUTURE SHOCK (2LP/SPECIAL EDITION)
Reissue of Gillan's 1981 album as 180 gram vinyl hardback book edition.

Image

MASTER - THE NEW ELITE
You just can't keep Paul Speckmann down! The man has had quite an extremely busy schedule over the last three years or so to say the least - touring, touring and touring besides re-releasing part of his MASTER back-catalogue along with his very first professional recordings under the WAR CRY moniker. But even if hell turn fifty next year, the years havent calmed down his anger. As a matter of fact, the older he gets, the more pissed off he seems to be. Don't believe us?! Just listen to The New Elite and see for yourself! See, just as its predecessor The Human Machine was his spiteful revenge on how Society is turning us into slaves while we turn our heads to offer the other cheek, MASTER official eleventh full-length simply doesnt take any prisoner, hammered down by has now been the most solid line-up the band has ever had (five albums in a row and counting) and entirely recorded and mixed in Shaark studio in Bzenec in Czech Republic. Following the quite punkish direction followed by the band since 2007s Slaves To Society but with an upbeat tempo and sense of urgency, the vinyl edition of this new manifesto of hate features all eleven new tracks but with a cover artwork different to the CD (released by PULVERISED RECORDS), of course exclusive to this version.

Image

ODYSSEY (SWEDEN) - ABYSMAL DESPAIR
Limited 200 copies trasnparent GREEN vinyl issue housed in nice gatefold sleeve. Abysmal Despair" is ODYSSEY's much anticipated debut album on Transubstans Records. Heavy & harsh stonerrock deluxe with a great feeling for riffs, the band hits it hard, and hit is good ! Think stonerrock, add some noise and sludge - and you get a vague idea what this trio is all about. Link add some noise and sludge - and you get a vague idea what this trio is all about. - "ODYSSEY's performances are probably the most energetic and violent in Sweden at the moment, and definetly worth that detour to witness..." This recording is much the same - energetic and violent... ELECTRIC WIZARD meets EYEHATEGOD meets ACRIMONY. A great debut album !!

Image

OLDE GROWTH - OLDE GROWTH
Amazing Sludge/Doom from Boston, Massachusetts. Innovative two-piece drum and bass. CD originally on Meteor City Records. Every copy comes in a completely hand-screened, color, 18pt recycled chipboard pocket with recycled insert. Ltd. to 200 copies on brown wax.

Image

RAMESSES - TAKE THE CURSE (+7"/POSTER)
180 gram black vinyl, silver foiled gatefold packaging and including an A2 full colour poster and 12inch shaped sticker insert. The release will also include a bonus 7inch with 2 live tracks from Roadburn 2011. Bonus tracks are 'Take the Curse' and 'Terrasaw'. This is the most focussed and direct Ramasses record yet: more tight and less sprawling than previous efforts, this is all about the RIFFS. Each song is a total bad acid trip of lysergic doom, but the arrangements are completely tight and more immediate - dare I say accessible - than before. There's a total 70s Hammer/Euro cine vibe going on throughout, lots of great samples...makes me want to be on the set of The Dunwich Horror or something! Definitely the most fully-realised document of Ramesses' vision thus far.

Image

SONS OF TONATIUH - PARADE OF SORROW
Second full album from Atlanta Georgia's Southern Sludge punkers. For fans of Eyehategod, Weedeater, Buzzoven, Sourvein. Ltd. to 200 copies on green marbled vinyl.

Image

WINO & CONNY OCHS - HEAVY KINGDOM (USA)
New edition of this highly regarded LP. The Legacy of Scott "Wino" Weinrich in the world of heavy music is indisputable. Here he teams up with fellow Conny Ochs, a songwriter so pure and honest in his output that he seems to be the perfect partner.

CELESTIAL SEASON - FOREVER SCARLET PASSION

Forever Scarlet Passion" was the first album released by Dutch Doomsters CELESTIAL SEASON far away in 1993. This great band was hailed as one of the pioneers of Doom / Death Metal alongside ANATHEMA, PARADISE LOST & MY DYING BRIDE. Now and 19 years later, ISHTADEVA VINYL PRODUCTIONS presents, for the first time on vinyl, this unique masterpiece full of melancholy and desperation. For this vinyl edition, we have maintained the original Cover but Backcover and inserts have been reworked.

HERDER - HERDER IS HARDER

Limited to 500 handnumbered copies. The Herder demo on 7"! Last copies already, so be fast! HERDER was conceived from the murky swamps by JB to praise the holy crushing scepter of doom and release the low filthy sludge in a revelation of deep rumbling decibelquakes in the hellish underbelly of a world gone mad! Coming in a stabhappy frenzy from the Westereen, the devotion to the HERDER knives was only natural and instinctive and so was the passion for heavy as fuck drinking! Relentless pounding Stoner Doom with a Sludgy vibe was created to wreak havoc upon mankind's feeble outcasts and Lotharios: With past / present sexoffenders of DR DOOM, RUSH N ATTACK, ABORTED, OMISSION, URFAUST and THE DEVIL'S BLOOD, you know you are into something furious and fucked up beyond recognition: HERDER IS HARDER, FUCK YOU TILL DEATH!!!!

Image

BLACK RAINBOWS - TWILIGHT IN THE DESERT

First time on vinyl. Debut album from 2007. 400 copies black vinyl. Black Rainbows are an heavy psych, stoner, rock nroll power trio. Founded by Gabriele Fiori (guitar & vocals) after few months Daniele Conti (drums) and Marco De Masi (bass) joined the band. Their sound is a mix of 70s like MC5, Blue Cheer, Hawkwind, Black Sabbath and hard psych-stoner from 90s as Kyuss, Monster Magnet, Fu-manchu, Qotsa and Nebula.

New arrivals:

FATSO JETSON - TOASTED
First time ever on vinyl for this 1999 Bongload album. This is the band's third album, produced by Chris Goss (of Masters of Reality). Features the original stripped-down, killer line-up of MARIO LALLI on guitar and vocals, LARRY LALLI on bass and TONY TORNAY on drums.

Image

KING DUDE - LOVE
The long awaited proper full length album by Seattle's KING DUDE. Dark pagan-fueled folk wrapped tight with outsider Americana, steeped in themes of love, death and redemption. 'Love' showcases an atmosphere filled with hope and salvation, drawing sound influence akin to Death In June and Sol Invictus, but also sewing together a hybrid of true folk tradition alongside Woody Guthrie and Johnny Cash.

Image

KING DUDE - MY BELOVED GHOST
Originally released on cassette, now available on LP. Modern neo-folk, suitable for fans of Death In June, Sol Invictus, etc.

Image

SLEEP - DOPESMOKER (2LP/CLEAR)

Expected:

Image

ABSU - ABSU (BLACK)
425gsm heavy cardboard cover, cardboard lyric insert, black vinyl, ltd. 150.

ALTAR OF PLAGUES - WHITE TOMB (DEVIANT)
2010 edition. The debut full length album from ALTAR OF PLAGUES, 'White Tomb', is 2 parts (split into 4 actual songs), and 50 minutes of organic, ambient black metal played with a taught looseness with hints of shoegazer introspection.

ANATOMY OF HABIT - ANATOMY OF HABIT (2)
This EP contains two "shorter" pieces, by the band's standards, at least, titled 'After The Water' and 'The Decade Plan'. Both tracks continue in the band's often-praised and characteristic melding of power, heaviness, and delicacy, while exploring new sonic textures and composition. To further solidify the concept for this release and to distinguish it from its precursor, the records were pressed in white vinyl. Emotionally charged doom metal that pensively slashes and burns by Chicago ballcrushers with a history in Vertonen, Flying Luttenbachers, No Funeral, Bloodyminded a.o.

ARABROT - MAESSCR
Their 2012 mini album features two previously unheard Arabrot compositions, a Lee Hazlewood cover and interpretations of two different Death In June-songs. 'Maesscr' is another fundamental outburst from a group that never stops being unpleasant.

BOLT THROWER - IN BATTLE THERE IS NO LAW
Ferocious late 80s death-grind from UK pioneers.

GORIJA - L'ENFANT SAUVAGE (2LP)
French heavy metal goliaths Gorija with their fifth album and first for Roadrunner Records, L'Enfant Sauvage'

Image

HELLBRINGER - (BLACK) DOMINION OF DARKNESS
425gsm cardboard cover, lyric sheet, poster, black vinyl Hellbringer is an Australian Thrash/Speed Metal band formed in 2010 and previously known as Forgery.

Image

HELLWITCH - SYZYGIAL MISCREANCY & EARLY DEMOS
Officially licenced by Displeased Records. Reissue of Florida's technical Thrashing Death pioneers most popular recordings. "Syzigial miscreancy" recorded at Morrisound Studios by Scott Burns originally came out in 1990 on Wild Rags and hasn't been repressed on vinyl since then. This double LP is also adding all the extra demo material (1984-1989) featured on the latter CD remaster on Displeased and some rare unreleased live tracks from the Syzigial days. Totally repackaged in a high glossy laminated gatefold with photos, liner notes and a detailed biography. Hellwitch, along with Atheist and Death, among several others, stumbled onto a new (for 1990) style of extreme metal with brilliant results. "Syzigial miscreancy" is just so far-out and well-made for 1990, and even by todays standards, that it deserves to be held in the highest regard and treated with the utmost respect, as it was bands like Hellwitch who truly advanced the development of extreme (and technical) death metal.

Image

HEXX - MORBID REALITY (BLACK)
425gsm heavy cardboard cover, cardboard lyric insert, black vinyl, ltd. 150.

NEW ARRIVALS

Image

CANDLEMASS - PSALMS FOR THE DEAD (MARBLED) (2LP)
Very limited special MARBLED GOLD/BLACK vinyl version. "Psalms for the Dead" is the Swedish doom metal legend's swansong. Contrary to the rampant rumors, the band will not be splitting up, but rather concentrating on live performances. CANDLEMASS' final studio album shows a band at the top of their game and it will soon earn the cult status it well deserves. The release is filled with such highlights as "Dancing in the Temple of the Mad Queen Bee" or the sweeping opening track "Prophet", which beautifully showcases the band's strengths. Singer Robert Lowe (SOLITUDE AETURNUS) embellishes the songs with his characteristic vocals and sounds as though he has been a part of CANDLEMASS from the band's early beginnings. The powerful and crystal-clear production delivers a first-class sound that will send shivers down one's spine.

PALLBEARER - SORROW AND EXTINCTION (2LP)
A great 2LP issue of their debut album, which is a crushingly heavy and beautifully melancholic piece of traditional doom metal.

Image

SVOLK - (GREY) NIGHTS UNDER THE ROUND TABLE
Limited grey vinyl version. The Perfect Mix of Stoner, Danzig & Iron Maiden. Svolk finally releases their highly anticipated new album "Nights under the Round Table". The first sounds of the new longplayer will take the listener by surprise. It shows that the band was able to improve tremendously since the release of the highly acclaimed and fantastic debut album. The Norwegians riff enthusiastically over the entire album without showing any signs of slowing down. It's quite the opposite, the listener feels the love and the excitement of the musicians in each and every second. Svolk's Stoner Metal can be described as an explosive and dirty mix of Stoner Rock, Metal, Danzig and Iron Maiden. "Nights under the Round Table" has huge potential to be embraced by Die Hard Metal fans and 70's worshippers and Stoner Rockers alike.

NEW IN STOCK

BUNKER 66/BARBARIAN - SPLIT LP
Split lp between 2 great Italian doom metal bands. LP comes with a 2-sided poster. One could say those bands were due to one day share a split in the first place. Lets face it, BUNKER66 and BARBARIAN have more in common than most: both bands are Italians, both are power-trios whose music is rooted in the 80s heavy/thrash scene, both have been officially endorsed by Fenriz from DARKTHRONE in his band of the week blog andboth bands have had releases on DOOMENTIA before. Oh yeah and born under the sign of the black mark, they both have the kind of fuck off attitude that would make any emo fans weep! So this partnering wasnt simply due to happen, it HAD to become reality. So there you go, 25 minutes of glorious black/thrash/punk and whatever for all those warriors to headbang to until you bleed. A glorious throwback to CELTIC FROST and VENOM (BARBARIAN) but also DISCHARGE, BULLDOZER and SODOM (BUNKER66) performed and produced the way it always should be! And to make the whole thing even more special, as an extra, both acts are paying tribute to their elders. While BUNKER66 have resurrected from the grave "Psychopharmax Convulsions" originally committed to tape by the obscure Italian hardcore band CONVULSED waaaaay back in 1988 and blasted here in less than 53 seconds, BARBARIAN have chosen "Murder Angels" by the legendary DEATH SS, originally released in 1981 on "Horned god of the witches demo".

EXPECTED

Image

BONGRIPPER - THE GREAT BARRIER REEFER (2LP)
For the first time Bongripper's debut release "The Great Barrier Reefer" will be available on 2LP through Emetic Records. The 80 minute long track was initially recorded in 2005 and released only in extremely small CDr editions. The album is remastered by Dennis Pleckham and new artwork from Mike Miller who also did the art on "Satan Worshipping Doom".

Image

WITCHCRAFT - LEGEND (2LP)
When Magnus Pelander founded WITCHCRAFT back in the year 2000, he just did so to record PENTAGRAM tribute album. It took until 2002 when the band finally released a first single. With their follow-up albums "Witchcraft" (2004), "Firewood" (2005) and "The Alchemist" (2007) they manifested their distinctive signature sound that is now known as Swedens finest psychedelic/classic rock band. Enter 2012, the band has found a new home with Nuclear Blast records and will put out their first album in five years. Originally being both a guitarist and singer, Pelander chose to focus on his unique vocals only from now on. With an all new line-up and the fine, authentic production by renowned producer Jens Bogren (KREATOR, PARADISE LOST, OPETH, AMON AMARTH), "Legend" isn't only a title for a new record, it is a strong statement and a payback for all WITCHCRAFT fans that have been waiting for a new sign of life from the band, who is more than eager to give the world what it needs. Magnus Pelander himself speaks of "magic in the studio" and states: "We can't wait to get this one out to our fans and give something back! We know you have been waiting for a long time!"

TRACKLISTING: 01. DECONSTRUCTION 02. FLAG OF FATE 03. IT'S NOT BECAUSE OF YOU DISC #2: 01. AN ALTERNATIVE TO FREEDOM 02. GHOSTS HOUSE 03. WHITE LIGHT SUICIDE DISC #3: 01. DEMOCRACY 02. DYSTOPIA 03. BY YOUR DEFINITION (BONUS TRACK) DISC #4: 01. DEAD END

CHURCH OF MISERY - VOL. 1 (+7")
REPRESS. The LP comes with a 7" single containing the last 2 songs of the CD version. The official re-release of Church Of Misery's unreleased debut full lenght Volume 1. This will be the first time this has been officially released. This release has been remastered (Souichirou Nakamura at Peace Music) and sounds amazing compared to the original release. Originally recorded in 1996 these are the oldest Church Of Misery recordings. Volume 1 track listing. 1. Cloud Bed 2. Nutz 3. Kingdom Scum 4. Frog's Funeral 5. Cerebrate Pigs tracks on 7" single: 6. Race With The Devil (Single Version) 7. Chilly Grave (Single Version)

Image

EYEHATEGOD - IN THE NAME OF SUFFERING (2LP)
Repress of long deleted DOUBLE LP. All tracks re-mastered with revised layout and artwork. 4 bonus tracks and liner notes by lead singer Mike Williams. Eyehategod material prior to the arrival of vocalist/violator Michael Williams is scarce. The band was a significantly different beast. A bunch of Southern burnouts with an offensive name bent on playing painfully slow. Securing the band's embryonic "Garden Dwarf Woman Driver" is like procuring the Holy Grail. A stubborn allegiance to the Melvins, a subtle nod to Southern rock (this should not be lost on any discerning fan) and Williams' harrowing, fragile and drug-addled dedication to art." Track list: Depress / Man Is Too Ignorant To Exist / Shinobi / Pigs / Run It Into The Ground / Godsong / Children Of God / Left To Starve / Hostility Dose / Hit A Girl / Left To Starve (1990 demo)* / Hit A Girl (1990 demo)* / Depress (1990 demo)* / Children Of God (1990 demo)*.

Image

PHANTOM GLUE - PHANTOM GLUE
Limited edition splatter on translucent coloured vinyl. Includes a poster. The chief audio comparison point for Phantom Glue is going to be High on Fire all the way. Oates and bassist N. Wolf are rougher in their delivery than latter-day Matt Pike, and the music sometimes launches into Sunlight Studios-style death metal guitar theatrics with Oates and fellow guitarist M. Gowell duking out harmonics in the grand Entombed tradition. They also mark Electric Wizard as a comparison point.

NEW ARRIVALS - 2012.40

Image

BUNKER 66 - (COL) INFERNO INTERCEPTORS
425gsm heavy cardboard cover, cardboard lyric sheet, red/white splatter vinyl. They originally formed in 2007 after a couple of rehearsals and lots of beer. In 2009, the debut EP "Out of the Bunker" was recorded. It received great feedback from the inner circle of the punk and metal underground. Initially it was self-released in a limited edition of 100 copies only, but Reinig Records from San Francisco re-mastered and re-released it on vinyl with a new cover artwork. High-class thrash metal.

Image

CLUTCH - BLAST TYRANT (2LP)
Weathermaker Music has announced the date of Feb. 28 as the official retail release for the Clutch double-vinyl edition of Blast Tyrant. This 180+ gram expanded vinyl contains 16 songs and includes six mini-posters taken straight from Blast Tyrants "Atlas of the Invisible World." Each illustrated poster is sized 8.5? x 11? and depicts one of the various characters featured within the Blast Tyrant storyline.

Image

EAGLE TWIN - FEATHER TIPPED THE SERPENT'S SCALE (2LP)
Double LP version with bonus live track.

Image

HIGH ON FIRE - ART OF SELF DEFENSE (2LP)
Reissue of this cult classic, remastered and restored. LIMITED, SUPER-DELUXE 180 GM BLACK DOUBLE VINYL, STOUGHTON GATEFOLD JACKET, BOUND IN 20 PAGE 12"X12" BOOK, PRINTED INNER-SLEEVES. . Hot on the heels of the restored and remastered reissue of Sleeps' Dopesmoker album, Southern Lord strikes while the iron is blistering with another essential holy grail documentation. The Art of Self Defense, 2012 issue, was remastered by Brad Boatright who also helmed the remaster of Dopesmoker. The Art of Self Defense served up a rock hard, unorthodox form of modern metal cloaked in strange religious theology and the trio's style was unique, distinct, HEAVY as all fuck and absolutely crushing. The album immediately became a cult classic and not even the the closure of the label that released the album (Mans' Ruin) could stop the powerhouse that had been unleashed. Tee Pee records reissued the album in 2001 with 2 bonus tracks: Steel Shoes and a ripping cover of the Celtic Frost song.

PSYCHED - PSYCHED
On vinyl. A mucked-up and hella cruddy long player from Brooklyn, NY's The Psyched. 9 huge, mid-tempo tracks boom and thud over the top of your skull, adding a filthy, next level doom-metal element to the o.g. Tunnel of Love raw rock'n'roll blast, like a total punk version of Electric Wizard. Features Paul Weil of DC legends The Apes.

Image

M.L. home demo LP 7: Misc Demos 1992 - 2008.

Image

DOOMDOGS - (BLACK) DOOMDOGS
Limited 150 copies black vinyl in gatefold sleeve with poster. Swedens 'Doomdogs' play a mid-paced version of slightly uglified stoner/doom with crust and doomcore-ish elements. Sort of like mixing Crowbar and a slowed down Kyuss with Neurosis and Cult Of Luna. A real heavy experience!

Image

PENTAGRAM - (SPLATTER) IF THE WINDS WOULD CHANGE
Gold/black splatter vinyl, 425gsm heavy cardboard cover, insert. I am happy to announce the creation of RamFam! Designed to fire the countless bootlegs from Mars back into space, the RamFam icon will assure you of the items authenticity. The band and the fans have been ripped off for years. Please help us put an end to it by only supporting RamFam items. Please, especially do not support any unofficial item coming out of the DC, Virginia, Rockville, Maryland area. You can look forward to official, cool, limited edition, collectible vinyl, shirts, screen-printed posters and much more directly from me. We think that youll find our items visually as well as audibly pleasing. This is the very first RamFam album! It is also in honor of our 40th Anniversary. Weve got a couple of other great, limited albums lined up for the coming year ahead. The albums will cover our entire career of songs! This first album in the limited RamFam LP series covers songs I wrote in the early 70s. They were recorded at various rehearsals and such. All are special to me and I wanted to deliver them to you in their honest, most raw form. I think youll feel the heart of these as strongly as we all do. Bobby Liebling Jan, 2011.

Image

SPIRITUS MORTIS - SPIRITUS MORTIS (COL)
2nd Edition LP, ltd 350 x bronze vinyl, 4 page insert, 425gsm heavy gatefold cover "The God behind the God", Spiritus Mortis' latest album (released on Firebox Records), is one of the best Doom Metal releases of this decade. No doubt about that. The band stems from the dark woods of Finland and, what a shock to the system, has been around for ages (without having made too many waves up until now). Spiritus Mortis were formed in 1987 and proudly call themselves "the oldest Doom Metal band in Finland.

Image

TROUBLE - (BLACK) LIVE 1983 (2LP)
Limited to 350 copies, gatefold cover, inside out. This can be seen as a counterpoint to the recent 'Live in L.A.', which featured new vocalist Kory Clarke. On the 15 songs of "Live 1983" you can still hear the original vocalist Eric Wagner. Maybe not everybody knows that the recording of 'Live 1983' has already been released on a vinyl bootleg album called 'In The Beginning' (on Slow Death Records) featuring a nice Rodney Matthews cover artwork. However, the sound quality of this totally illegitimate release was so poor (stemming from an x-generation analog tape) that it was rather hard to figure out the individual songs. The current album on High Roller was mastered form the original tape, so no sound troubles there at all.

Image

TROUBLE - (COL) BLACK SHAPES OF DOOM (2LP)
Gatefold cover, limited to 150 x "transparent sea blue" vinyl. Tracklisting: -R.I.P. -Black Shapes of Doom -Psalm 9 -The Wolf -End of my Daze -Assassin -The Misery Shows (Act II) -Psychotic Reaction -Helter Skelter -The Tempter -All is Forgiven -Gideon* -Assassin* -Victim of the Insane* -Wickedness of Man* Live Dallas Texas 03/12/90 * Live Alamo Ballroom, Aurora, Illinois 10/26/1982

DEADMASK / JESS AND THE ANVIENT ONES - SPLIT EP
Luxurious gatefold printed on 350-gram cardboard, printed with UV colours on metalic base. Adding to an already long and glorious list of splits, DOOMENTIA have once again convinced two talented bands to share a colourful piece of wax, namely JESS AND THE ANCIENT ONES and DEADMASK. If the former, led by three members of DEATHCHAIN, have already made waves with their fantastic debut album (on SVART RECORDS), the latter, showcasing a very surprising side of MACHETAZO blastmasters personality, is a far more discreet entity, having released so far only one EP on PSYCHEDOOMELIC RECORDS back in 2007. But as different as they may look like, both have the same fascination for 70s doom-rock, vintage prog and both have a female singer whose bewitching vocals just add to the overall occult vibe of the music presented. So here it is, a glorious twelve minutes trip back in time when COVEN, early BLACK SABBATH and BLACK WIDOW advocated the left hand path in such a seductive and venomous way.

BLACK SABBATH - VINYL COLLECTION 1970-1978 (10LP)
A superb collection featuring 9 LP's and a 12-inch platter.

OCCULTATION - THREE AND SEVEN
An occult rock trio consisiting of two ladies and a guy. Apart from many metal influences there also are clear traces of UK '80s goth/post punk bands, incl. Southern Death Cult, Siouxsie & The Banshees and March Violets. This LP version includes a vinyl-only bonus cover of The Cure's 'The Drowning Man'.

BACK IN STOCK - 2012.43

CHURCH OF MISERY - VOL. 1 (+7")
REPRESS. The LP comes with a 7" single containing the last 2 songs of the CD version. The official re-release of Church Of Misery's unreleased debut full lenght Volume 1. This will be the first time this has been officially released. This release has been remastered (Souichirou Nakamura at Peace Music) and sounds amazing compared to the original release. Originally recorded in 1996 these are the oldest Church Of Misery recordings. Volume 1 track listing. 1. Cloud Bed 2. Nutz 3. Kingdom Scum 4. Frog's Funeral 5. Cerebrate Pigs tracks on 7" single: 6. Race With The Devil (Single Version) 7. Chilly Grave (Single Version)

Image

EYEHATEGOD - DOPESICK (2LP)
Repressed DOUBLE LP, this time the BLACK cover. Limited to 500, all tracks re-mastered with revised layout and artwork, bonus tracks an liner notes by lead singer Mike Williams. Eyehategod's Dopesick continues the band's trend of rage, raunchiness, and uncontrolled hate. This album is not something for the weak of heart or the easily intimidated. The music here is the super slow, back home southern "metal" type that could make you fall asleep if it wasn't for the incessant grind of it all. Micheal Williams' vocals are the utmost sickening, puke-ridden audio atrocities that could actually prove deadly if taken in large doses. Songs such as "Dogs Holy Life", "Zero Nowhere", "Methamphetamine", and "Lack of Almost Everything", by their titles alone show that this band isn't joking around when it comes to their depression. Haters of life, love and God, these New Orleans dirt packers are back and just waiting to be excreted."

Image

EYEHATEGOD - IN THE NAME OF SUFFERING (2LP)
Repress of long deleted DOUBLE LP. All tracks re-mastered with revised layout and artwork. 4 bonus tracks and liner notes by lead singer Mike Williams. Eyehategod material prior to the arrival of vocalist/violator Michael Williams is scarce. The band was a significantly different beast. A bunch of Southern burnouts with an offensive name bent on playing painfully slow. Securing the band's embryonic "Garden Dwarf Woman Driver" is like procuring the Holy Grail. A stubborn allegiance to the Melvins, a subtle nod to Southern rock (this should not be lost on any discerning fan) and Williams' harrowing, fragile and drug-addled dedication to art." Track list: Depress / Man Is Too Ignorant To Exist / Shinobi / Pigs / Run It Into The Ground / Godsong / Children Of God / Left To Starve / Hostility Dose / Hit A Girl / Left To Starve (1990 demo)* / Hit A Girl (1990 demo)* / Depress (1990 demo)* / Children Of God (1990 demo)*.

PREMONITION 13 - 13
Fronted by the legendary SCOTT "WINO" WEINRICH (THE OBSESSED, SAINT VITUS, SPIRIT CARAVAN, THE HIDDEN HAND, SHRINEBUILDER).

Image

SOURVEIN - BLACK FANG (+7")
Limited to 500 copies LP + bonus 'Imperial Bastard 7" package. This release sees 2 of Sourvein's titles being released on vinyl for the first time. "Black Fang" marks the third full length for North Carolina's Sourvein who have otherwise released a few EP's and Splits. Sourvein plays down-tuned groove oriented doom/sludge that hits like a bong and never sobers up. The band having survived multiple lineup changes since the inception in 1993 shows no signs of letting up with "Fang" as a great follow up to 2002s "Will to Mangle". Many will have to reconsider which is the bands best release once Black Fang leaves its mark. The record opens up with the title track, and hits you with a repetitive groove riff I found reminiscent of recent Electric Wizard sans the psycadelia. Interesting enough, the guitar player who is now absent, Liz Buckingham, left Sourvein to join Electric Wizard years ago. At the middle mark of "Night Eyes" they break down into this really cool riff that invokes some sort of mind control. You have two choices: take drugs, or murder someone. "Nomadic" is another track that sticks out. A bit more driving, Nomadic sludges forward with some great groove and eventually hits with the first solo of the record, and it fucking kills. I was actually done talking about the songs and finishing up the end of my review and I had to come back and talk about "Nocturnal/Negative Phaze". It may be the best track on the record even though it took me a few listens to notice. Clocking it at 6:37, the track is a long progression combining elements found throughout the rest of the record. Nocturnal/Negative Phase does a great job of showing off their creativity. If this where my project, I'd take this track and use it as the ground-work for future writing inspiration.

SPIRITUS MORTIS/FALL OF THE IDOLS - SPLIT LP
Two of Finlands finest team up for a dual doom assault. Spiritus Mortis offers us three tracks: A Uriah Heep cover, a brand new tribute to Robert E. Howards puritan avenger, Solomon Kane, and a re-recorded, longer version of the bands crowd pleaser "Rise From Hell", now even more menacing and evil. Fall of the Idols in turn provide us with two new songs in a more heavy metal oriented fashion than weve heard before. 2nd pressing, 300 copies red vinyl this time. After these copies the vinyl will be sold out forever!

SHEVER - RITUALS
'Rituals' is a sludgy brew of death-doom heaviness: crushing riffs, crawling rhythm, hate-drenched vocals, and melodies that create a unique trance-like atmosphere. Those appreciating the sounds as diverse as of Mythic, Cathedral, Bloody Panda, Buried at Sea, Sleep or even early My Dying Bride might develop an addiction to these six aggressive pieces, stretching over 50 ritualistic minutes of doom. Shever was formed in 2004 by Jessica and the former drummer Melanie. The first demo-cd the mirror was released in 2004, followed by the first full-album ocean of illusions in 2007 and the epa dialogue with the dimensions in 2009. shEver played several gigs all around Europe at which the two most important gigs for the band took place in 2010, playing Roadburn and Doom Shall Rise.

BACK IN STOCK - 2012.44

ALTAR OF OBLIVION - SINEWS OF ANGUISH (2LP)
LIMITED DOUBLE VINYL VERSION. A brand new Epic Heavy Metal band with Doom touches has emerged from the great Denmark. I received their Demo in 2007 and was blown away by the potential this band had. Martin (guitarist/songwriter) has a really unique riffing style that I love. The riffs are really catchy, heavy, and choppy (for lack of a better word). When you finally get used to his guitar playing youll find out its a signature sound that he developed. The combination of the Epic styled songwriting with some really subtle Doom-y sections mixed with the very young, talented, and uniquely distinct Mik on vocals puts this band to the top of the Epic Heavy/Doom metal scene. If you liked the demo at all (by the way "Wrapped In Ruins" is again featured on this new album) the new album is definitely were you would have wanted the band to be by this time because the songwriting has exceeded the expectation. This album is a full-on conceptual, emotional trip about the pain, suffering, and horrors of war. With that in mind, expect nothing but crushing riffs filled with sorrow, despair, and with powerful vocals with so much emotion, depending on your mood might bring a tear to your eye. ALTAR OF OBLIVION are keeping the Epic Doom torch a flame that was started by the great and well respected bands like CANDLEMASS, SOLSTICE, SOLITUDE AETURNUS, REVELATION, TROUBLE, etc.

CANDLEMASS - PSALMS FOR THE DEAD (MARBLED) (2LP)
Very limited special MARBLED GOLD/BLACK vinyl version. "Psalms for the Dead" is the Swedish doom metal legend's swansong. Contrary to the rampant rumors, the band will not be splitting up, but rather concentrating on live performances. CANDLEMASS' final studio album shows a band at the top of their game and it will soon earn the cult status it well deserves. The release is filled with such highlights as "Dancing in the Temple of the Mad Queen Bee" or the sweeping opening track "Prophet", which beautifully showcases the band's strengths. Singer Robert Lowe (SOLITUDE AETURNUS) embellishes the songs with his characteristic vocals and sounds as though he has been a part of CANDLEMASS from the band's early beginnings. The powerful and crystal-clear production delivers a first-class sound that will send shivers down one's spine.

GALLOW GOD - FALSE MYSTICAL PROSE
UK doom band with its debut release. Now available on vinyl, limited to 500 copies. Traditional DOOM, traditional format. This is the album Black Sabbath should have made instead of 'Technical Ecstasy'. There's even something of a young Ozzy about the vocals. Slow, dark, thoughtful, emotional. For fans of Fall Of The Idols, Isole and sincere doom metal... TRACK LIST: 1. 'The Sin And Doom Of Godless Men' 7:18 2. 'The Emissary' 9:30 3. 'Summon The Rune Wizard' 8:07 4. 'Ship Of Nails' 12:41

NEGATIVE REACTION - FREQUENCIES FROM MONTAUK
Established in 1990, NEGATIVE REACTION from NY/USA, the kings of SLUDGE DOOM are back in 2011 with a magnificent album. The album is released as Vinyl LP+CD ...with printed innerbag and download code! "It is going to be the best NR release to date!... Sludge out and DOOM on!" KEN-E BONES === TRACK LIST: Earth Side - day after yesterday - dopamine - docking bay 94 - frequencies from montauk - shattered reflection - thicker than blood Space Side - space capsule 1 - a bit of rumb - planet sagar and the trobbits - angels & demons - elsie in space

Image

SVOLK - (GREY) NIGHTS UNDER THE ROUND TABLE
Limited grey vinyl version. The Perfect Mix of Stoner, Danzig & Iron Maiden. Svolk finally releases their highly anticipated new album "Nights under the Round Table". The first sounds of the new longplayer will take the listener by surprise. It shows that the band was able to improve tremendously since the release of the highly acclaimed and fantastic debut album. The Norwegians riff enthusiastically over the entire album without showing any signs of slowing down. It's quite the opposite, the listener feels the love and the excitement of the musicians in each and every second. Svolk's Stoner Metal can be described as an explosive and dirty mix of Stoner Rock, Metal, Danzig and Iron Maiden. "Nights under the Round Table" has huge potential to be embraced by Die Hard Metal fans and 70's worshippers and Stoner Rockers alike.

CIRCLE - END OF TIME/GOLD TOLD ME TO 7"
There are quite a few masterpieces in the world and one of them is the magnificent album 'Fun at the Funeral' by Jesters of Destiny. It was released in 1986, but it has never received the attention it deserves. The album is so timeless it is in its own league, full of brilliant heavy-metal tracks with a hint of psychedelia, punk and avantgarde. Jesters of Destiny is one of the bands that have inspired Circle the most. Circle honors the masterpiece of psychedelic heavy metal by performing two classic songs (End of Time, God Told Me to) from the album. On this record Circle's line-up includes the original Jesters Bruce Duff and Ray Violet! LONG LIVE JESTERS OF DESTINY! Limited to 500 copies!

MASTERS OF REALITY - MASTERS OF REALITY/HOW HIGH THE MOON (2LP)
Gatefold double-LP issue from heavy rock legends Masters Of Reality, combining their classic 1988 debut album 'Masters Of Reality' with 1997's 'How High The Moon: Live At The Viper Room'. Essential for fans of psychedelic rock and the stoner scene.

Image

MEDUSA - FIRST STEP BEYOND
Chicago's reputation will forever be tainted by the horn-ravaged corniness of their eponymous band. Medusa's 'First Step Beyond' could have forever altered the perception of Chicago rock history had it managed to make the leap from tape to its destined vinyl pressing. Instead, this mish-mash of Sabbath, Hawkwind, and Amon Duul II remained petrified in the Corycian Caverns, or rather the drummers basement. Selfproduced on four track in 1975, the sole transmission from Medusa's repertoire appeared on the extremely mysterious Pepperhead label, whose proprietor allegedly disappeared after a bad trip and has never been seen again. Housed in cushy mock-velvet and screened in blood red and gold, and art directed from the band's elaborate original stage props and artwork, we have positioned this unreleased opus to finally reach its destination: the turntables of pot-smoking teenagers, young and old.

Image

NECRONOMICON (BRAZIL) - THE QUEEN OF DEATH
Brazil's finest 70's influenced prog/doom band returns with their second album entitled The Queen of Death. Necronomicon will appeal to fans of current bands like Witchcraft, Noctum, Kadaver, Graveyard along with fans of vintage Hawkwind and Pink Floyd..even a little Sabbath thrown in.... but nobody does it quite like Necronomicon! While the first album brought us through a nightmarish Lovecraftian landscape of demons and creatures, this new LP launches you into an adventure a million light years away where we join an intergalactic Hitman as he embarks on his greatest mission, to destroy the evil overlord known as The Queen of Death.

SABBATH ASSEMBLY - YE ARE GODS (USA)
US edition on vinyl. Reaching beyond the scope of 'Restored To One', 2012' 'Ye Are Gods' incorporates the ritual text and structure of the Process Church of the Final Judgment's highest and holiest mass, the Sabbath Assembly liturgy (after which the band is named). Includes 20-page book.

Image

ART OF BURNING WATER - THIS DISGRACE
Like Slayer gone sludge, ART OF BURNING WATER channel the prime noise-rock of vintage Zeni Geva and Godflesh with the more complex, rhythmical riff obsessions of the Melvins, Keelhaul and mid-period Voivod.

Image

COFFINS - SACRIFICE TO EVIL SPIRIT (PD)
The waiting is over, the long time sold out vinyl issue of "Sacrifice to Evil Spirit" by Japanese doom metal band Coffins, is finally repressed on PICTURE DISC version for the first time ever. This edition features the Putrids artwork pressed on vinyl coming with a 3030 insert with release infos and additional band pics previousely unreleased on first pressing. This version comes with some special unreleased bonus tracks on side B, recorded even before 2005 and an extra cover of VENOM!! Tokyo's three piece death/doom outfit Coffins had recentely signed to the Relapse Records roster. Note: this record was originally released by GrindBlock that went bankrupt and didn't pay the vinyl factory.. shame! The copies were left in a corner of the factory, so FOAD Records paid them and repackaged them with a new insert and brought them back to life!!

WARNING - WATCHING FROM A DISTANCE (2LP)
WARNING plays doom metal, stripped down to its most basic form-a powerful expression of despair. The lyrics deal entirely with personal struggles, failure, longing, and other powerful feelings. PATRICK WALKER's vocals are extremely intimate and emotional. Unlike traditional doom bands that employ operatic vocals, Patrick Walker sings in a plain but passionate voice. Every word is believable and authentic due to Walker's inexplicable power. Double LP in gatefold jacket.

BORIS - BLACK ORIGINAL (REMIX)
Japanese heavy rock band Boris are at the height of their creative powers. Their fans (including Lou Reed, Radiohead, Nine Inch Nails & Portishead, to name a few) know it. They composed the soundtrack for the Japanese Academy Award winning film 'KOKUHAKU' and Jim Jarmusch asked them to soundtrack his latest film, 'Limits Of Control'. The band's dramatic evolution as been a hot topic for discussion amongst fans both old and new in Japan and abroad. The new 12" remix single 'Black Original' expands the listener's horizons even further, introducing synthesizers and industrial beats including remixes from 9dW and Luger E-Go.

Image

BLACK PYRAMID - (BLACK) BLACK PYRAMID (2LP)
Limited 300 black vinyl copies of the reissue of their debut album, with a Black Pyramid Logo etched on SIDE D. "Black Pyramid play doom with the rumbling down-tuned tones of stoner metal gods like Sleep, Electric Wizard, and High On Fire, but with the epic arrangements of old school metal and doom acts such as Black Sabbath, Pentagram, and The Obsessed. Add to the sonic brew perfectly executed forays into vintage psych and progressive rock, along with the apocalyptic lyrical ravings about war, the occult, and general alienation, and you've got an accurate picture of what the band is all about. Prepare to be crushed by the weight of the Black Pyramid."

Image

BLACK PYRAMID - (BLACK) II (2LP)
Limited 300 copies black vinyl version. Majestic gatefold sleeve, 2 x 180 grams vinyl. Known for its dynamic sound that blends towering riff cosmos with magnetic psychedelic rock, BLACK PYRAMID has been turning heads in the underground music world since its formation in late 2007; the response to its initial demo and debut 7" was such that the band's name spread even faster than its music. The group's instantly agreeable bang and spectacular live shows has garnered the trio an army of loyal enthusiasts. BLACK PYRAMID's thunderous tone, fire-eating licks, lyrical bent and single-minded devotion to music has enabled the trio to share the stage with a variety of like-minded heavy rock acts - from Electric Wizard to Black Mountain - and have pegged the unit as a "band to watch". Heavier and more atmospheric than the band's debut, Black Pyramid II contains BLACK PYRAMID's most ambitious material to date; a fact especially underlined by the epic, 15 minute long closing track "Into The Dawn." When writing the album, the band drew inspiration from "Lovecraft, Robert E Howard, Edison's second book "Mistress Of Mistresses" and both Norse and Indian mythology", while a big influence as far as source material was Grant Morrison's "The Invisibles", the popular comic book series with a plot that follows (more or less) a single cell of "The Invisible College", a secret organization "battling against physical and psychic oppression using time travel, magic, meditation and violence." Track listing: 1. Endless Agony 2. Mercy's Bane 3. Night Queen 4. Dreams of the Dead 5. Tanelorn 6. Sons of Chaos 7. Empty Handed Insurrection 8. The Hidden Kingdom 9. Into the Dawn

Image

ELDER - (BLACK) DEAD ROOTS STIRRING (2LP)
LIMITED 300 BLACK VINYL. LUXURIOUS LP EDITION! Elder is a sonic interpretation of the forces that surround us - the pounding waves of ancient seas, the weight of stone colossi rising up from the earth and the endlessness of inflamed, majestic skies. Elder is equal parts hypnotic rhythm, uncompromising heaviness, and soaring melody. Continuously moving backward towards their roots in heavy rock, while also moving forward into more progressive and psychedelic territory. With 'Dead Roots Stirring', the Boston-based trio returns from a three year silence with five songs charting new epic territory. For fans of Electric Wizard, Black Pyramid, Sleep, Fu Manchu, Colour Haze...

Image

SIENA ROOT - (BLACK) DIFFERENT REALITIES
Limited 180 gram vinyl issue of 4th album from Swedish quartet, housed in a deluxe gatefold 'embossed' sleeve! We get here 2 long tracks, divided into 10 pieces, whereof the first section is a classic SIENA ROOT sounding experience, recalling bands like LED ZEPPELIN and DEEP PURPLE, but with a more psychedelic edge. The 2nd part is an Indian inspired piece that are filled with stoned moments, sitars, tablas and of course electric instruments. This is perhaps the masterpiece. Sometimes very groovy, sometimes, heavy as few can do, with influences from everything from INCREDIBLE STRING BAND, FLOWER TRAVELLIN' BAND to heavier bands that still lives in the 70's classic hardrock school.

Image

SIENA ROOT - (BLACK) ROOT JAM (2LP)
Above all else, this extensive double live album, is a resume of Siena Root's early years. This album features all the elements of the band, from their debut up to recent days. They have managed to pour the bands dynamic energy from the stage right into this box of 91 minutes root rock. You will for sure find the good old heavy riffs, side by side with psychedelic vibes and groovy jams. But there is more, much more to experience in this magnificent album. There are no less than 9 guest artists featured, with a range from classical violin by Martin Stensson from Stockholm radio symphonic orchestra, to legendary blues guitarist Maxi Dread. You will also find a lot of Siena Root family from the past such as Tngman and vocalists Oskar and Sanya performing songs on a new level. On top of it all you get previously unreleased material and 2 rare acoustic tracks that reveal a new side of the band. Root Jam is the album that covers the whole colourful spectra of Siena Root, and it's all straight from the stage. No overdubs or studio takes what so ever. If you are into tunes from late 60s, early 70s, you should get your hands on this album. Tracks: Side A: Instroduction The Rat Waiting for the sun Bhimpalasi Side B: Into The Woods Words Side C: Trippin Bhairavi Thumri Dreams of Tomorrow Long Way from Home Side D: Rasayana Reverberations

Image

SUN DIAL - (BLACK) SUN DIAL
Limited edition 400 black vinyls housed in cover that has been designed by hugh gilmour (famous for doing 70s covers of famous albums of Led Zep, Sabbath and Deep Purple!). Highly regarded UK psych-rock outfit Sun Dial fronted by founder/ guitarist/singer Gary Ramon and ex-Chapterhouse bassist/lyricist Russell Barrett. This certainly is easily their most heaviest album to date. Taking off where Acid Yantra left off really if they'd carried on, but much heavier. The sound has been stripped down, and the band's now a mean 3-piece , quitar/vocals, bass and drums, no keyboards on the album either! Fits straight into the stoner/heavy psychrock genre.

SABBATH ASSEMBLY - YE ARE GODS (GOLD)
Gold vinyl edition. As on the critically acclaimed 'Restored To One' debut, 'Ye Are Gods' presents the hymns of the Process Church Of The Final Judgment, a religious movement that emerged in the late 1960s as an apocalyptic shadow-side to the flower power and New Age movements. Reaching beyond the scope of 'Restored To One', 'Ye Are Gods' incorporates the ritual text and structure of the Process Church's highest and holiest mass, the "Sabbath Assembly" liturgy after which the band is named. 'Ye Are Gods' is led by vocalist Jamie Myers, a veteran of Hammers of Misfortune (The Locust Years) and Wolves In The Throne Room (Diadem of 12 Stars, Malevolent Grain). Dave "Christian" Nuss remains drummer and co-producer. The album features Genesis P-Orridge serving the role of High Priest(ess), aka 'Sacrifist', Eyvind Kang plays viola on the liturgical 'Declaration Of The Gods', and guitarist/vocalist Imaad Wasif offers a chilling rendition of the hymn 'We Give Our Lives'. In addition, Timothy Wyllie, an original Process Church member, provides a homily from Process Church founder Robert DeGrimston's 'Gods On War'. Mr. Wyllie is the author of Feral Houses LOVE SEX FEAR DEATH, which offers an insider's perspective of the Church and its true leadership. The album offers a first-ever glimpse into the Process' most sacred liturgical text, taking the astute listener through the mysterious Gnostic journey of the unification of Christ and Satan; the bliss of total submission to the gods Jehovah, Lucifer, Satan, and Christ; the wilds of the Apocalypse and a face-to-face encounter with the Angel of Death. And finally, the moment of spiritual renewal in which the Process' 'Law Of The Universe' is revealed.

For there within the album lies its own mythology: the story of the rise of Lucifer to the throne of the Overworld.

FUZZ - THIS TIME I GOT A REASON/FUZZ'S FOURTH DREAM
A notable 7-incher, featuring two addictive and ferocious slabs of doomy fuzzed-out rock and fucking ROLL that break open the gates of Hades and lurch forward like rabid hounds of Hell! Both cuts are flaming embers of molten rock that evoke a serpentine headbanging and rage skyward on evil riffs like the red-headed stepchildren of Black Sabbath, Blue Cheer, Jerusalem and Wicked Lady! But who are FUZZ? It's a mystery, though some do THINK they hear some TY SEGALL in this mix. W-W-Whoah! On randomly mixed colour vinyl.

Image

SWORD - APOCRYPHON (2LP+CD)
REPRESS! Third Album from the US Stoner/Hard Rock Band. Over the course of 3 mind altering, critically praised albums,THE SWORD have proved to be one of rock's most intriguing bands. Part Sabbath, part Melvins, part Slayer, the band has already created a body of enormous riffery that has crushed ear drums the world over. On their new album "Apocryphon", the band has taken the best elements from each of their previous albums and made an album that is the most fluid and heavy of the band's career.

WITCH MOUNTAIN - CAULDRON OF THE WILD

CROWNED IN EARTH - A VORTEX OF EARTHLY CHIMES
Autumn 2012 will see Crowned In Earth present their mighty second album 'A Vortex Of Earthly Chimes' which is nothing less than a monster of a follow up to 'Visions Of The Haunted'. The epic new songs retain Crowned In Earth's trademark low end groove but have now been textured with innovative arrangements and melodic instrumental passages, familiar of Camel, Pink Floyd and Atomic Rooster. 'A Vortex Of Earthly Chimes' will take you back to the wondrous days of the early '70s Decca and Charisma Record labels releases, fused with a blend of sterling psychedelic Doom inspired rock. Thus creating Crowned In Earth a distinct sound of their own. Black Sabbath, Camel, Cathedral, Electric Wizard, Genesis, Pentagram and Van Der Graaf Generator.

BEAUSOLEIL, BOBBY - LUCIFER RISING O.S.T. (4LP)
THIRD & FINAL REPRESS!! A complete anthology of the recordings made for the Lucifer Rising motion picture soundtrack by BOBBY BEAUSOLEIL with THE FREEDOM ORCHESTRA and THE MAGICK POWERHOUSE OF OZ. This fully authorized and definitive release will include: ~Remastered recordings spanning 11 years, from the 67 recording to the Tracy Prison recordings of 78. ~4 full-length LPs worth of Lucifer Rising material with half being never-before-heard sessions personally selected by Bobby BeauSoleil. ~9 new pieces of art from Bobby: 8 record sleeve panels and one 2'x3' poster. ~2 posters: one by Bobby BeauSoleil and one by Dennis Dread. ~A much-extended version of the "Fallen Angel Blues" piece by Bobby that originally appeared in the Kenneth Anger DVD set. ~"Hymns to the Solar Temple"- impressions on a visit to Bobby at the Oregon Correctional Facility in Pendleton, Oregon by Dennis Dread. ~"The Saga of a Soundtrack" by Michael Moynihan ~Art from Dennis Dread for the back of the LP box, also to be included as a 2'x2' poster. ~Art from Dennis Dread for the front lid of the box which will provide a window into the works of Bobby's to be found within. ~Remastered by Robert Ferbrache, well known for his work with Blood Axis, 16 Horsepower and others. All art has been created specifically for this release. The music of Lucifer Rising reverberates with all the pathos and raw emotive energy of an ageless archetype. Like Kenneth Anger's film itself, the symbols evoked in sound are at once timeless and yet strangely born of a very specific time and place, a frozen moment that has been sealed to us forever. Something emerges from the grooves of this vinyl collection that we can only hope to borrow for a short while and ride like a solar disk to places yet unknown. Now, for the first time, all of the music composed for the soundtrack project has been compiled into a single public release. The Lucifer Rising Suite begins with the 1967 version of the soundtrack and continues through a logical sequence of the recordings made in the years spanning 1976-79. With respect to the latter, the original master tapes were mined for music that had not been heard by anyone in nearly three decades. The newly unearthed recordings were then restored, cleaned up and combined with those previously released to make the anthology as complete as possible. "The compositions that comprise the Suite are sequenced in an order that tells a story, after a fashion. It is a story that may be impossible to tell in a strictly literary manner, one that - like a mirrors reflection into another - is both personal and allegorical.

BELL WITCH - LONGING (2LP)
This debut full-length from Seattle's BELL WITCH is a marathon-like exercise in extreme doom. Testing the thresholds of listeners who become engrossed in its overwhelming sonic experience, it's a powerful statement from one of the most promising acts the American scene has to offer. Double LP.

Image

BONGRIPPER - LIVE AT ROADBURN (2LP)
Powerful registration of the 2 sets Bongripper played on Roadburn 2012. First ever shows of Bongripper in Europe. Mixed and mastered by James Plotkin (Sunn O)))/Isis etc). Vinyl limited to 500 copies. On the main stage, Bongripper performing all of the beautiful Satan Worshipping Doom album proved to be a revelation for most at the festival. Massively framed by the enormous and intricate cover art, the four silent Chicagoans seemed to teach us all a lesson in how to deliver the heaviest and most atmospheric of music using just stringed instruments, drums and electricity. No head was left un-nodded in the 013 building as they blew away most of the competition with such furiously focussed cyclopean riffing that a crack nearly appeared in the Dutch sea walls 60 miles to the west. One hour of faultless instrumental rock. I felt hugely privileged. To quote any young American - fucking awesome. The Sleeping Shaman Vinyl will be only the Sunday Satan Worshipping Doom-set.

Image

CHAIN, PAUL - (COL) DETACHING FROM SATAN
Limited to 150 x purple vinyl & woven patch. The master of esoteric doom metal and former DEATH SS member.

Image

CONAN - LIVE AT ROADBURN 2012
Stage 1 at Roadburn 2012 was already overcrowded when Conan entered (with their gear through the audience) and laid down an hour of Horseback battle doom. The band were in obviously ebullient form, stoked at playing this legendary festival and also being asked to join Sleep in Oslo, as selections from the new and monstrous Monnos were intermingled with the huge and bulldozing force of classics like Krull and Older Than Earth. Jons instantly likeable faraway vocals have never sounded more realised to these ears, and the audience were massively appreciative of Conan's true wallop as the Stonehenge of amps that framed the band belched out universe-sized slices of ultra low-end hostility. A special mention too for Paul O'Neil's expert drumming which represents the kind of versatility and intelligence that one would not usually expect with this most primal of genres, truly adding colour to the palette. By the end of the set I had cunningly worked my way into the centre of the room and believe me I was not regretful of the deoxygenated crush of Stage 01 - Conan had finally arrived on the international stage like the great wrecking ball that they have always been and I needed to be there to witness their special Roadburn moment. I toast thee lads - you are truly monolithic. ~The Sleeping Shaman. TRACKLIST: 1. KRULL 2. SATSUMO 3. HAWK AS WEAPON 4. BATTLE IN THE SWAMP 5. HEADLESS HUNTER 6. SEA LORD.

TROUBLED HORSE - BRING MY HORSES HOME
The mind behind TROUBLED HORSE is leader and front man Martin Heppich, supported by WITCHCRAFTS John Hoyles and Ola Henriksson along with Jens Henriksson. Martin Heppich possesses an incredible songwriting prowess combining the raw sounds of the 60s garage rock with the heavy riffs of the 70s psych-doom, which brings to mind the days of Dust, Roky Erickson and Pentagram. TROUBLED HORSE has finally given in to their fans demands and completed a brand new 7-inch debut record containing two strong and solid songs ready to carve their way straight into your mind. Tracks: 1. Bring My Horses Home, 2. Shirleen.

Image

COVEN - WITCHCRAFT DESTROYS MINDS AND REAP SOULS
Whether it was coincidence, influence, or good old show biz imitation, Coven's 1969 album featuring the lead-off track "Black Sabbath" was released the same year as the formation of the more popular heavy metal band. To make the story more even interesting, Coven featured a bass player named Oz Osborne. The soon-to-be-famous Ozzy's band Black Sabbath emerged a year after the release of this LP with a similar image and their own song called "Black Sabbath."

Image

GOBLIN - TENEBRE
"Tenebre" is the soundtrack of the eponymous film directed by Dario Argento in 1982, which celebrated today its 30th anniversary. Even if released as 'Simonetti - Pignatelli - Morante', it's usually considered an actual Goblin album; as many people know, the 'real' Goblin were releasing the LP "Volo" at the same time, and the band's name and logo could not be used for copyright reasons. "Tenebre" is the last great collaboration between Argento and Goblin, before an almost 20-year long break until 2001's "Non ho sonno". Here Dario Argento moved from full and warm-coloured atmospheres to the aseptic and cold architectural spaces of Rome. The music of "Tenebre" responds to this change: Claudio Simonetti was returning from his first experiences in the techno/dance field and, since the band was missing a real drummer, synthesizers and samplers took over, in a mix between rock and electronic music that once again perfectly blends with the images of the film. This reissue of the "Tenebre" OST vinyl follows the AMS Records tradition where a poster is attached to the LP replica, gathering informations for collectors about all the known exixting versions of the release, images of the discography and movie flyers and an essay presenting the filmand the soundtrack in detail. Not to be missed by any horror movie and soundtracks fans!

SEVEN THAT SPELLS - THE DEATH AND RESURRECTION OF KRAUTROCK: AUM
Seven That Spells spells CROATIVITY. Zagreb's heavy sons drill Krautrock a new arsehole with lofty, wailing, epic thunder hymns to the new cosmos. 'Rock Is Krieg' says it all, especially coming from a place blackened by real war in recent times. The beauty of STS's take on prog is that it is actually progressive, in the sense that their extended, rumbling anthems express both aggression and spirituality. They translate the old Teutonic ways into a stoner/doomy metallic patois that should put the likes of Sunn 0))) and Boris on notice. 'Death & Rebirth' shifts from exploding roar into swirling overdrive with the precision of a European race engine. When the music growls, it is frightening. And when the music purrs, it sounds like an astral sphinx sleeping with one third-eye open. This is the true spirit of Kraut carried forward into the new rage. This album will appeal to fans of Green Milk From The Planet Orange, Acid Mothers Temple, Pink Floyd, Can, Amon Duul. File under space rock, psych, heavy psych, sushi-kraut. "There seems to be a dearth of quality rock these days, but Seven That Spells goes a long way toward proving that wrong." Brainwashed. "...theres traces of the propulsive intensity of motorik post-rockers like Trans Am and Turing Machine, the apocalyptic prog ferocity of Magma, and the virtuosity of The Mars Volta." Popmatters.com. "Croatia's heavy psych band, chasing Hawkwind, Igra Staklenih Perli and Acid Mothers Temple in an evil labyrinth of disorientating rhythms, destroying guitars, complex sax, synth awareness and celestial knowledge." Tracks: 1. In 4:54 2. Aum 19:05 3. Zero 8:02 4. Rock ist Krieg 8:40 5. Out 6:34

DE NOVISSIMIS/WRECK OF THE HESPERUS - SPLIT 10"
LAST COPIES! The Dublin, Ireland doom metal scene is represented on this new 10", which features one massive track each from Wreck Of The Hesperus and De Novissimis, and just as we'd expect from a single piece of vinyl matching up these two bands, this is seriously heavy shit. Both of these bands are already known. Wreck Of The Hesperus through their excellent full-length on Aesthetic Death that came out a year or two ago, and De Novissimis through their CDR demo and a recent 7" that came out on Rimbaud. Both bands put their own spin on ultra-slow, noxious doom/sludge, and each side weighs down on you like a pallet of concrete blocks. Wreck Of The Hesperus are up first with "Raw Sewage Heart", a hideous splooge of blackened ultradoom that focuses on one monstrous riff wading through about ten minutes of buzzing feedback, garbled amplifier drone, and fithy low-end rumble. The riff is totally crushing, and the band plays at a sickeningly slow 10 bpm crawl with huge pauses between each crashing chord and pounding bass-drum hit, but it's the vocals that really make this as diseased and demonic as it is. You've got to wait awhile for 'em - the vocaltist doesn't show up until three or four minutes in, when the band is totally immersed in septic sludge - but when they finally kick in, it sounds like Regan from The Exorcist fronting Toadliquor, with multiple voices all coming out of the same throat at the same time, bestial death metal roars, psychotic cackles, weird slurping noises that sounds like someones chowing down on a plate of mashed potatoes. The drumming is also really cool, throwing in busy martial snare rhythms and rolls in between each suspended riff, and adding a coiled tension to their corrosive doom. Total slime! Contrasting Wreck Of The Hesperus's hellish descension with their own crusty nihilism, De Novissimis deliver a vicious track called "Worthy Of Nothing" for their side of this split, a near 10 minute blast of depressing, fatalist lyrics, long stretches of shimmering feedback, high pitched yowling vocals that trade off with deeper, more gutteral death metal style growls, and the expected glacial propulsion. The riffs are more atmospheric than you might expect though; slightly dissonant chords drift across the lumbering drumming, while another guitar plays a creepy minor key melody, and the song occasionally breaks away into total ambient drift where it's just the guitars chiming away and rumbling in space, only to crash back in a moment later into dense, droning, noisy ultradoom. Then all of a sudden from out of nowhere in the middle of the song, De Novissmis explode into furious blackened blasting, blastbeat drums and atonal grindcore whipped up into a violent sonic storm, and from there the song alternates between the plodding feedback-strewn blackdoom and epic murky crust, like Dystopia mixed with Grief, Christdriver and Khanate. Packaged in a glossy jacket with rad artwork on both sides, and a couple of inserts. Black vinyl.

RADIO MOSCOW - GREAT ESCAPE OF LESLIE MAGNAFUZZ
Psychedelic blues rock rooted in the power trio sound of the late '60s and early '70s, with comparisons to Blue Cheer, Hendrix, Cream, Ten Years After, a.o.

Image

RADIO MOSCOW - RADIO MOSCOW
RADIO MOSCOW is a psychedelic blues rock trio from Ames, IA, led by guitarist/drummer/singer/songwriter Parker Griggs, and this, their self-titled debut album, is produced and engineered by BLACK KEYS guitarist/singer Dan Auerbach. Dan was given a demo by Parker after a BLACK KEYS gig in Colorado, and he liked it so much that he offered to produce their debut album in his own studio, The Pie Co, in Akron, OH. Parker Griggs (21) originally cut his teeth playing garage punk, but his sound, although heavily influenced by sixties garage music, is also channeled through the blues, with experimental breakdowns, unpredictable tempo changes, crazy rave-ups and fuzzed out psychedelic guitar work; the result is an exciting and truly distinctive sound. Parker plays all the instruments on the album except for bass, played by Luke Duff (21), and slide guitar on "Deep Blue Sea", which is played by Dan Auerbach. RADIO MOSCOWs debut is a guitar album reminiscent of the pre-punk era, and it will certainly delight fans of the BLACK KEYS and COMETS ON FIRE alike.

ALUK TODOLO - OCCULT ROCK (2LP)
Eight hypnotic tracks, an ultimate entheogenic ceremony that reveals the power trio's live energy and osmosis, and the individuality and roughness of each instrument, with an emphasis on the inter-penetration of all the components of an organic and tetanizing trance ritual. This opus recounts the alchemical transformation of the primordial vibration into matter, through all its elemental phases, leading to the sonic manifestation of the forces of the universe into the octagonal prism of 'Occult Rock'.

OM - CONFERENCE OF THE BIRDS (PD)
PICTURE DISC! Comprised of two songs that build on their use of cyclical rhythm, riff and vocal intonation, OM's 2006 album 'Conference Of The Birds' blends metal, chant, drone, dub and psychedelia. The group's lyrics expound upon the structure of the universe, potentiality and freedom from the physical body. 'Conference Of The Birds' is a fully realized work from a forward-thinking band at their peak.

INCOMING CEREBRAL OVERDRIVE - LE STELLE: A VOYAGE ADRIFT
Born at the dawn of the new millennium in Italy, I.C.O. (Incoming Cerebral Overdrive) are heavy to the core. The end of the first decade of the new millennium marks a new step in the evolution of the band. The title of the new chapter is: "Le Stelle: A Voyage Adrift". The concept, an imaginary, dark and lonely trip adrift discovered in a diary. Emotions of fear, anger and irrational excitement are expressed, waiting for a certain epilogue into desolation, a final annihilation in a cosmic fusion. Sonically, this new album is a journey that intersects and expands in a huge, deep and at times, claustrophobic monolith. Heavy cavernous guitars with back-breaking riffs, multifaceted, effect laden vocals and rhythmic notes plunge into a psychedelic mix of unpredictable sounds of distress and madness that we, the recipient, can only succumb to. The album ultimately analyses the irrational, insane feelings of the man who face a journey toward the unknown. A diary has been found, but we cant say anything more than whats written inside. Impossible to identify the places (real or not, who knows) that he explored, what shines through his words are his fears, sensations and frustrations fed by a sense of belonging to a chaotic, incontrollable, and compromised whole. The participation of Urlo and Poia of Ufomammut, both during the composition and the recording sessions opens the project to a new light. Recorded in Rome at Locomotore Studio by Lorenzo Stecconi (already soundlord for such important discs as Ufomammut and Lento). TRACKLIST 1. Mirzam - 2. Sirius - 3. Betelgeuse - 4. Kochab 5. Adhara - 6. Pherkad - 7. SiriusB - 8. Polaris 9. Bellatrix - 10. Rigel

OBSESSED - LIVE MUSIC HALL KÖLN 1992

Live in Koln December 29th 1992 captures the band live at their peak and is released to celebrate the bands come back on the Roadburn Festival on April 14th 2012. This one will be vinyl only.

ALUNAH - WHITE HOARHOUND
Limited 1 LP gatefold edition in transparent green vinyl incl. vinyl bonus track. "Fans of shroom-y, stoom-y doom should absolutely flip their wigs over White Hoarhound. Though I have no prior experience with Alunah's sound other than this record, the band had no problem winning me over track to track. I went from knowing nothing about them, to becoming a big fan in an extremely short span of time. If you like this kind of hazy, mega-heavy smooth groove sound; you should consider this an essential purchase."

Image

MANILLA ROAD - MYSTERIUM (BLACK)
Ltd. 550 x black vinyl, 425gsm heavy gatefold cover, poster It surely was Manilla Road who put the Epic in Metal! Mark Shelton's group must be one of the most legendary American Metal bands in history. The band's debut album "Invasion" was issued in 1980 on their own Roadster label. If you count "Circus Maximus" as a proper Road album, then the new record entitled "Mysterium" is Manilla Road's 17th album in a long and fruitful career. And without the shadow of a doubt it is one of their best records since 1983's "Crystal Logic" (normally cited as the band's masterstroke).

JESS & THE ANCIENT ONES - ASTRAL SABBAT (BLACK)
Gatefold jacket. 500 x black. Although it's been only nine months since the release of their brilliant and spellbinding debut album, Finland's Jess and The Ancient Ones have already moved on. After a split 7" with Spain's Deadmask last November on Doomentia, the band is already gearing up for something new. A three song EP titled Astral Sabbat is expected to shatter most of the preconceptions some already did hold against the band. Once again recorded with Swedish sonic wizard Tore Stjerna of Necromorbus Studio in their hometown Kuopio, Astral Sabbat sees them pushing forward the boundaries of the sound established on their first full-length and forging their own path, as personified by the rather unusual choice of cover song: Long And Lonesome Road, originally written and recorded by Dutch rock outfit Shocking Blue, mostly known for their mega-hit Venus. "We wanted to give these works a space entirely their own" reveals guitarist Thomas Corpse, "so that listeners are able to focus on them completely. For this purpose we consider an EP the perfect means. Regarding the surprising choice of cover, I had heard the song at a very young age. And now, after travelling many roads, it returned to me. It is a timeless song and I hope someone discovers Shocking Blue through us." With its cover art designed by Adam Burke of Nightjar Graphics, its accompanying video (a first for the band) that will be released to the public on Wednesday 6th of February and its epic "More Than Living" that swallows the entire B side on the vinyl version, Astral Sabbat will prove that Jess And The Ancient Ones are now way beyond all those occult, prog or retro-rock tags and playing a game on their own.

CHAINS - DANCING WITH DEMONS
Paul Chain style doom metal, ltd. to 500.

Image

DOOMDOGS/WAR INJUN - SPLIT
Maryland meets Sweden on this clash of two bands obsessed with classic doom metal, both presenting new tracks. Doomdogs from Gothenburg, known for their two smashing full length albums on Doomentia, offer the tune 'Oceans Of Despair' whereas War Injun present their last track with singer JD Williams (also of Internal Void), 'Smokethrower'. Both songs are previously unreleased and exclusive to this release.

Image

HORSE LATITUDES - GATHERING (2LP)
Gatefold double vinyl with a A1 poster. Limited to 500 copies. This slow motion mammoth of an album is the debut by Finland's Horse Latitudes, the band whose "dual bass incantations capture the most surreal, epic and psychedelic voyage into the annals of doom", as Lurker's Path webzine put it. 'Gathering' was originally released on CD by Aurora Borealis a couple of years back. Never before available on vinyl, the Svart edition comes in heavy black and silvery gatefold covers and also features a gigantic A1 poster. Heavily recommended for fans of Winter, Saturnalia Temple, Electric Wizard, Ride For Revenge, Burning Witch...

Image

SINK - HOLY TESTAMENT 2
This is the second part of Sink's Holy Testament opus. Finnish underground psychedelic black-drone nomads lead us down a spiral path to nothingness. A strange, choking mixture of choral black metal guitars, deep vocal hum and melting electronics over hypnotic, cavernous drumming. A genre-breaking trip to black ecstasy. Gatefold, limited to 500.

WOLFHEAD - WOLFHEAD
Limited 300 copies transparent blue vinyl. You'd think that a band born in 2008 after some drunk rehearsals in between black/death outfit BETWEEN THE FROST guitarist Iosue and guitar-wizard-cum-producer and leader of old-school death-metal warlords GRAVEYARD would only mean buzzsaw guitars, grinding drums and putrid production wouldnt you? Except that WOLFHEAD wont let be pigeonholed that easily and Javi himself step furiously on any possible categorisation: "It lies somewhere rock nroll, heavy-metal, stoner, doom, grunge, black-metal, whatever! A song sounds like BATHORY but then moves on to TROUBLE territories, then towards MOTORHEAD highway before taking a left-turn somewhere in between old ENSLAVED and DARKTHRONE. IN a way, its the exact opposite of GRAVEYARD that stands for a very specific sound. For WOLFHEAD, whatever sounds cool to our ears will make it, let it be keyboards, harmonized vocals, strange instrument or even harmonica!" Confused? You betcha. And dont you forget some ALICE IN CHAINS, BLACK SABBATH or SOLITUDE AETERNUS thrown in the bin for good measure. Recorded in Barcelona in Javis own Moontower studios in between October 2008 and December 2009, such a mix bag could easily have been a recipe for disaster without the proper vocalist to pull it off. Enter Ivan, the already legendary frontman of the sadly defunct GREAT COVEN, whose legacy is now being carried by WARCHETYPE: he might be the only guy in this galaxy capable to have one foot in Birmingham circa 1970 and the other one in Valhalla along Thor the god of thunder, as exampled on the eight minutes plus epic, "Sons Of Asgard". Or pull off such a relaxed and yet fitting performance for the bands surprising entirely acoustic rendition of PINK FLOYDs ode to their fallen brother Syd Barrett, "Wish You Were Here". Adorned with a superb Andrei Bouzikov (MUNICIPAL WASTE, CANNABIS CORPSE etc.) cover art, WOLFHEAD self-titled debut simply ranks next to HORN OF THE RHINO and DOOMDOGS among DOOMENTIA's finest stoner/metal hybrid.

NEW ARRIVALS - 2013.06

Image

NOCTURNAL - UNTIL THE MORNING LIGHT
Kind of 60/70s hard rock, but with a modern sound. Like a bastard child of Wolfmother and the Doors or like Swedish acts like Graveyard or Witchcraft.

Image

AMAXA - AMAXA
Amaxa is a Swedish phenomenon. The music of this group is based almost exclusively on riffs, and its obvious that the seventies is a source of inspiration. Much of the influences are drawn from bands like Mountain, Black Sabbath, Atomic Rooster and Grand Funk Railroad. The listener will also find the traces of jazz intertwine with the rock elements within this organic music. Groove is a key focus and the drums are given a role as an additional instrument more than a mere timekeeper. Amaxa is far away from being just another retro band, there are some quirky twists that make them nothing but Amaxa. All members of the group do partake in the process of songwriting and anyone is free to come up with lyrics narrative subjects or poetry. The best moments are often when ideas are coming into shape in the rehearsal studio.

MASTERS OF REALITY - MASTERS OF REALITY/HOW HIGH THE MOON (2LP)
Gatefold double-LP issue from heavy rock legends Masters Of Reality, combining their classic 1988 debut album 'Masters Of Reality' with 1997's 'How High The Moon: Live At The Viper Room'. Essential for fans of psychedelic rock and the stoner scene.

Image

MEDUSA - FIRST STEP BEYOND
Chicago's reputation will forever be tainted by the horn-ravaged corniness of their eponymous band. Medusa's 'First Step Beyond' could have forever altered the perception of Chicago rock history had it managed to make the leap from tape to its destined vinyl pressing. Instead, this mish-mash of Sabbath, Hawkwind, and Amon Duul II remained petrified in the Corycian Caverns, or rather the drummers basement. Selfproduced on four track in 1975, the sole transmission from Medusa's repertoire appeared on the extremely mysterious Pepperhead label, whose proprietor allegedly disappeared after a bad trip and has never been seen again. Housed in cushy mock-velvet and screened in blood red and gold, and art directed from the band's elaborate original stage props and artwork, we have positioned this unreleased opus to finally reach its destination: the turntables of pot-smoking teenagers, young and old.

Image

RE-STONED - PLASMA (BLACK)
Formed in 2008, THE RE-STONED is a Moscow-based instrumental heavy-psych trio which is lead by guitarist and composer Ilya Lipkin. Two studio-albums, an EP, and a live-album have been produced since the band's inception. 'Plasma' is the third studio-album, and it finds the band heading in a new direction. Its still the same sensual blues-influenced heavy psychedelic rock, but here they're also rifling through various styles outside the realm of mind-boggling guitar riffs and rough jamming, for the first time incorporating songs with vocals (cover versions of Jefferson Airplane's 'Today' and Pink Floyd's 'Julia Dream') and even electro-acoustic meditations for solo guitar. Performed by Ilya Lipkin (guitars, bass, effects), Vasily Bartov and Pavel Voloshin (drums) with guest appearances of Veronika Martynova of WALDSONNE on vocals, Evgeny Tkachev of YAT-KHA on acoustic percussion, and Arkady Fedotov of VESPERO on synthesizer. Mixed by Ilya Lipkin. Mastered by Tobias Svensson. This is the first THE RE-STONED vinyl LP-release! The CD is out on R.A.I.G. Records (Russia). Limited to 400 copies.

Image

SUN PREACHERS - (BLACK) FACES OF ASHES
Sun Preachers is a very heavy psychedelic rock band playing long epic hymns in the vein of Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Sir Lord Baltimore and many more legends of the amazing '70s hard rock scene. Their hard and heavy rock knowledge is massive and their powerful riffs will pound you in the ground. From the first chords of 'Faces of Ashes', one gets the sense that they have stumbled upon something great, something that worshippers of authentic soulful music will recognize. The musicians are obviously stellar and there is more than a little psychedelic and progressive influence, it gives the music an interesting and fresher approach to the so called retro sound. Through dark and haunting words lead by a fallen preacher, the band feels the urge to express raw and heavy anthems. If you want to witness some atrocity exhibition, this way, step inside. Limited to 400 copies.

WIHT - THE HARROWING OF THE NORTH
A Leeds-based trio whose epic, instrumental style straddles a spectrum of all things riff laden, fuzzed out, epic and psychedelic. Wiht's first full album, 'The Harrowing Of The North', is a two song, 33-minute concept piece taking influence thematically, from the subjugation of the North of England by William the Conqueror in the 11th century. The band have played across the UK, supporting Brant Bjork & The Bros, Yob, Corrosion Of Conformity, Humanfly, Khuda, Dopefight, A Forest Of Stars and Conan.

EXPECTED - 2013.06

ENSEMBLE PEARL - ENSEMBLE PEARL (2LP)
Members of BORIS, SUNN, GHOST, WHITE HEAVEN, and JESSE SYKES and THE SWEET HEREAFTER and more collaborate to form Ensemble Pearl. Cosmic heavy amplified rock drops and ripples, auras radiate and expand into cloudforms, through which lightning bolts. Tides rise, the moons wax upon a place somewhere between Link Wray, 'Hex'-era Earth and early Tangerine Dream.

SONS OF OTIS - PAID TO SUFFER
Reissue on vinyl of the 1993 debut EP by the band of which the members were born stoned. Smokin' psychedelic rock with traces of heavy, drugged out blues. Remastered and limited to 300 copies.

Image

A new Swedish band with several big names, ex-members of NOVEMBER, YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, PUGH ROGEFELDT band etc joins together and release this 11 tracker that reeks of 70's Swedish hardrock with Swedish lyrics. Over the top release, and very recommended for friends of NOVEMBER, ABRAMIS BRAMA, MAGNOLIA etc.!!!

Released on 12" vinyl only. First of two dub-inspired remix 12"es on Drag City for OM. This, with 'Addis' from 'Advaitic Songs' and 'Addis Dubplate' from 'Alpha & Omega'.

ART OF BURNING WATER - THIS DISGRACE
LIMITED EDITION 200 ONLY VINYL. Like Slayer gone sludge, ART OF BURNING WATER channel the prime noise-rock of vintage Zeni Geva and Godflesh with the more complex, rhythmical riff obsessions of the Melvins, Keelhaul and mid-period Voivod.

EXPECTED - 2013.07

CROOKED HOOKS - CROOKED HOOKS
This Connecticut three-piece effortlessly channels the early Sabbath-, Blue Cheer-era of heavy, fuzzed out blues rock.

Image

CAPTAIN BEYOND - CAPTAIN BEYOND
This is one of the greatest overlooked early 1970s hard rock masterpieces. From beginning to end (with only one hitch, discussed below), this is a consummate performance. There is a power and consistency hardly ever found on debut albums. What's more, the production is remarkably sophisticated for its time, particularly in terms of the guitar work, which is chiefly reminiscent of Jimmy Page, and in some respects an advance over his work, but also thanks to richly-layered vocal harmonies of the sort that normally don't work in hard rock. Captain Beyond is heavy and most definitely FAR OUT!!

Image

KARMA TO BURN - LIVE AT SIDRO CLUB
Two unique tracks! 52 minutes of pure Karma to Burn live sound! Red vinyl.

ACID WITCH - WITCHTANIC HELLUCINATIONX
Acid Witch plays a very trippy, psychedelic and unsurprisingly horror influenced form of doom metal. Yet its delivered with such unabashed childishness and goofiness, a possible result of what the Scoody Doo cartoon theme would sound like if Electric Wizard had penned it. You'l find elements of Cathedral here, some Witchfinder General there, and some slight nods to Pentagram. Add to that some of Electric Wizard's ultra bassy, fuzzy, and distorted guitar tone and booming production values. Like other traditional doom metal albums, the riffs and rhythm patterns move in a lumbering and lurching fashion yet somehow the Witchsters inject some nice doses of sensual grooves that recall '70s Deep Purple. During various listening sessions I felt like I was inside Satan smoke filled strip club watching strippers complete with horns and cloven hooves gyrating their lovely tail clad asses for the merriment of us sinners and then suddenly I somehow realized that perhaps hell isn't really a bad place after all.

RAINBOWS ARE FREE - BELIEVERS IN MEDICINE
Reissued on smoke purple vinyl. The debut album from Oklahoma's stoner specialists RAINBOWS ARE FREE. Here's a heavy dose of drugged out psych rock/glam grooves in the vein of Black Sabbath, Queens Of The Stone Age, and Electric Wizard. Edition of 500, including download.

Image

UNIDA - COPING WITH THE URBAN COYOTE
Reissue of this 1999 album by UNIDA, a band that rose from the ashes of Kyuss. During these sessions the band consisted of JOHN GARCIA, ARTHUR SEAY, DAVE DINSNORE and MIGUEL CANCINO! Includes 8 tracks.

Image

BIBLE OF THE DEVIL/VALKYRIE - THE AULD DIRT ROAD/FALSE DREAMS
Long anticipated split 7" of Virginia's doomraiders Valkyrie & Chicago's Kings of Garage metal Bible Of The Devil. One track from each: BOTD - 'The Auld Dirt Road', VALKYRIE - 'False Dreams'. Dark sounds on red OR sky bright light blue vinyl!

NEW ARRIVALS - 2013.08

Image

NAAM - KINGDOM EP (GREEN)
MINI-LP , running time: 29 minutes of music..! Record composed by alternative versions of 'Skyling Slip', 'Fever if Fire', 'Kingdom' and one unreleased live song "Black Tread". Released in 500 vinyl copies 250 white/250 green coloured. Formed in Brooklyn, NY in early 2009 by John Bundy and Ryan Lugar. Naam later found percussionist Eli Pizzuto and released their first self- released ep "Kingdom." Many people took notice and Naam was quickly signed to the renowned Tee Pee Records. In October of 2009 Naam released their debut s/t LP 'Naam' via Tee Pee and proceeded to do national support tours for acts like Nebula, Orange Goblin, Radio Moscow and The Entrance Band. In 2011 Naam embarked on their first European tour providing support to The Atomic Bitchwax and playing the Roadburn Festival.

SLAVES - OCEAN ON OCEAN (2LP)
2LP with download. Hovering above the weighted disposition of Doom & below the consolation of Shoegaze, the duo transmit a burdened grace that unfolds like a radiant mammal writhing in black water. Have drawn favorable comparisons to the likes of Grouper, Slowdive, Earth, & Barn Owl.

WOLFE, CHELSEA - PRAYER FOR THE UNBORN
Five Rudimentary Peni covers in less than 12 minutes. Chelsea Wolfe has made quite an impact in the last few years, following up 'The Grime & The Glow' with a critically acclaimed second album, 'Apokalypsis' and more recently a full length live offering from her staggering performance at Roadburn 2012. Her music explores the mind, meant for after-hours with dark melodious passages and haunting vocals; yet somehow these hypnotic soundscapes manage to hold their own in well crafted songs. Limited edition of 500 LP's on 180-gram clear colour vinyl.

EXPECTED - 2013.08

RADIO MOSCOW - RANCHO TEHAMA AIRPORT/SWEET LIL THING
Exclusive single for VOLCOM singles club, by RADIO MOSCOW, a psychedelic blues rock trio from Ames, IA, led by guitarist/drummer/singer/songwriter Parker Griggs.

Image

HAWKWIND - (BLACK) LEAVE NO STAR UNTURNED (2LP)
'Cambridge, January '72'. Delayed double-LP release, on black 180-gram vinyl. A live Hawkwind show at the Cambridge Corn Exchange in 1972. Recorded at the beginning of Hawkwind's mainstream breakthrough year, this collection features classic line-up members Dave Brock, Nik Turner, Lemmy and Robert Calvert. In 2005 a copy of the recordings was unearthed in a collection of tapes stored in the attic of Gary Lucas. It's the Lucas tape, via an appearance on the auction lists at Bonham's in Knightsbridge, which has enabled the release of this pivotal show. These recordings, cleaned-up and remastered, enable Hawkwind's dedicated fan base to experience the band in full flow, poised to fly high and fly far, making the very concept of space rock their own in perpetuity.

Image

HEAVY EYES - MAERA (BLACK)
The Heavy Eyes are an up and coming stoner/ blues rock band hailing from Memphis, Tennessee. These guys go back to the essence of the late '60s and early '70s to create their own distinct sound; Somewhere between Five Horse Johnson, Radio Moscow and Led Zeppelin. The band's second full-length 'Maera' continues where 'The Heavy Eyes' left off. Behind the colourful artwork lies a clearer sound, more organic songwriting and tons of killer groove. The whole thing is driven by a hypnotic psychedelic vibe (think Jimi Hendrix) that goes perfectly with the excellent vocals. The Heavy Eyes currently may very well be one of the best new bands out there and their latest album kicks more ass than a whole temple of shaolin monks. Yes, you should hear it. - STONEROBIXX The Heavy Eyes play a groove-laden style of blues with a hard and heavy edge. There are no major departures on 'Maera' from the identity the band established for themselves on their self-titled debut. The Heavy Eyes find their groove on 'Maera' allowing the blues to wash over them in a rising tide of fuzz, riffs and crash. I start to wonder if these lads are incapable of recording a bad song, I haven't heard one from them yet. I'd be surprised if this and future albums don't gain the band a lot more attention above and below ground. There are so many gigantic riffs on display on this album that taken as a complete work 'Maera' is truly staggering and definitely the best new blues/rock album I've heard since The Black Keys' 'The Big Come Up' way back when.- PARANOID HITSOPHRENIC 200x black vinyl / High-quality heavy 180-gram vinyl pressed in Germany. With heavy glossy gatefold cover and hand-numbered.

Image

MEXICOMA - MEXICOMA
You're about to witness one of the heaviest bands of the genre. These six dudes (incl. three guitars and a heavenly hellish voice) from Sweden bring you an earth shattering melange of stoner rock, doom and metal. So heavy, so melodic, so unique ... no need to categorize any further, just listen for yourself ... Since the beginning in 2006, Mexicoma has grown from being a clean-cut stoner band to expressing a much more ambient and heavier sound. Just as a good whiskey, Mexicoma needed the time to age and evolve to get the right taste. The earlier flirt with the '70s and more peeled off sound, has developed into a heavier and saturnine presence, without discarding their riff-based foundations. The sound today is easiest described as heavy-hearted and transformative, but at the same time still captivating and progressive. 200x transparent 180-gram yellow vinyl in matt laquered heavy gatefold cover. Hand-numbered.

IRON WITCH - HANGOVER SUICIDE
With their whiskey soaked, blues-ridden jams and a seriously pissed off attitude, Liverpool's IRON WITCH has become one of the most talked about acts on the burgeoning UK sludge/doom scene today. Here the band takes its sound to the next level, injecting a healthy dose of HC-influence to create what is their strongest material to date. B/w 'Death Was The Colour'.

BARONESS - FIRST & SECOND
LIMITED REPRESS 500 COPIES. Baroness's now-classic formative material finally sees a proper reissue with their first two 12-inches compiled as one deluxe LP. A lot dirtier, punker and more metallic than their current rock-infused, catchy weirdness, First & Second is an important document in the lineage of this excellent band, and all 38 minutes of music have been completely remixed and remastered for a much fuller sound than ever before. Housed in a beautiful gatefold jacket with guitarist / vocalist John Dyer Baizley's elaborate and intricate artwork (spread through the exterior, interior and printed dustsleeve).

BLACK SABBATH - SABBATH BLOODY SABBATH (DMM)
Originally released in 1973, Black Sabbath's 5th amazing tour de force in four years is essential Sabbath for any self-respecting fan and one of the genres defining moments. Although the presence of Rick Wakeman of Yes on keyboards marks a slight change in direction for the band, the album (their fifth straight Top Ten million-seller) is still vintage Sabbath by anyones standards. Featuring the classic title track and the deliciously synth filled "Sabbra Cadabra". 180 gram vinyl in gatefold sleeve. Direct Metal Mastering. SIDE A: 1. Sabbath Bloody Sabbath 2. A National Acrobat 3. Fluff 4. Sabbra Cadabra SIDE B: 1. Killing Yourself To Live 2. Who Are You? 3. Looking For Today 4. Spiral Architect

MOSS - HORRIBLE NIGHT (2LP)
'Horrible Night' is the sound of MOSS emerging from its cocoon, becoming a much more savage, intelligent and all the more terrifying beast. While no longer obsessed with extremity for its own sake -with weirdly infectious riffs, eccentric vocal melodies and no song over 12 minutes- MOSS remain heavier-than-thou, broadening their horror beyond any imposed 'scene' expectations. This mastery of the craft is evident from the opening moments of first track 'Horrible Nights' -written back in 2010 it sets the course for the album, taking the twisting death-crawl of MOSS mini-epics such as "Tombs Of The Blind Drugged' and administering a lethal dose of addictive melody, cooked up by the colossal riffs of Dominic Finbow and the Ozzy-via-seance vocalisations of Olly Pearson. Cuts such as 'The Coral Of Chaos' and 'Dark Lady' expand further upon this potent formula, dragging the Black Sabbath blueprint to its most nightmarish conclusion and ushering MOSS further into their newest dark age. With 6 tracks, MOSS proves more than ever why this English cult band is regarded exactly as such. While still no easy pill to swallow for the uninitiated, over its duration 'Horrible Night' will demand complete mind control. Nonsense prefixes such as "stoner", "sludge" or "drone" do not apply here; this is pure DOOM METAL, a celebration of horror, the arcane and the unknown. Although traditionally a reluctant live act, in 2013 MOSS are set to embark on their first European headline tour, as well as a return trip to Holland's Roadburn Festival, playing Jus Oborn's Electric Acid Orgy with Electric Wizard, Dream Death, Psychic TV and the Pretty Things, it seems in their 13th year MOSS have finally arrived.

YAWNING MAN - POTHEAD (10"/BLACK)
A new EP from the godfathers of the Joshua Tree desert/stoner scene YAWNING MAN-GARY ARCE (guitars), ALFREDO HERNANDEZ (drums), and MARIO LALLI (bass). Four dark and extended tracks of melodic, instrumental, stoner rock magic. Originally intended as a 7-inch, but the songs just went on too long.

ADRIFT - (BLACK) BLACK HEART BLEEDS BLACK 2LP
Special ltd vinyl release, gatefold, 350gr cardboard. 300 units BLACK VINYL. Adrift have finally announced the release of their sophomore album, Black Heart Bleeds Black. This new material has moved Adrift further into the world of the psychedelic and the progressive, marking a new milestone on this remarkable bands musical journey: songs nearly 10 minutes long, instrumental passages and endless fleeting moments. Perhaps more organic and musical than the previous efforts, without losing their devastating punch, this album matches the loose extemporaneity and crunchy dynamism of the bands live sets with sophisticated arrangements and deft musicianship. Heavy, sludge, metal. For fans of: Mastodon, Cavity. Most promising underground metal band in Spain, alongside acts like The Eyes V3ctors or Vortice. "Vast, slabbish sludge outta Spain here, sharing certain genetic traits with countrymen Moho and coming across like a ravening Kyuss / Cavity crossbreed that's taken the former's easygoing sense of sunburnt grooves and the latter's desperate, fang-baring hostility" ALL THAT'S HEAVY. - Tracklist: 1. The Soldier Of My Words. (9'46'') 2. Black Heart Bleeds Black. (8'14'') 3. Wolves Searching Dams. (6'33'') 4. Waves. (1'00'') 5. Mallet Man. (6'35'') 6. Erich Zann Environment. (4'09'') 7. Fury Roof. (9'43'') 8. Long Nails. (7'21'')

KING DUDE - BURNING DAYLIGHT (GER)
Old-school shaped custom-made cover w. hotfoil embossing, linen-structured old-white 350g cartonstock, inside out printed 280g innersleeves, 180g dark red vinyl. As reverent as it is prophetic and stark, Burning Daylight pulls together the biblical sound and isolation of the northwest. King Dude draws from artists akin to Death in June & Leonard Cohen but sews together a hybrid of true folk tradition alongside the likes of Woody Guthrie and Johnny Cash. Last years release of King Dude's debut full-length masterpiece, Love, saw a beautiful vision of what was in store for the future...and what future is now. Burning Daylight is the newest edition to the King Dude canon. Coal dust spirituals mined from the haunting backwoods landscape of the Pacific Northwest. Stories of the constant struggle of mans turbulent affair with his Lord and the Devil. Burning Daylight produces a maturity and direction that is unparalleled...showing us the word, and way and the light.

NEW ARRIVALS - 2013.09

ACID WITCH - WITCHTANIC HELLUCINATIONS
Acid Witch plays a very trippy, psychedelic and unsurprisingly horror influenced form of doom metal. Yet its delivered with such unabashed childishness and goofiness, a possible result of what the Scooby-Doo cartoon theme would sound like if Electric Wizard had penned it. You'l find elements of Cathedral here, some Witchfinder General there, and some slight nods to Pentagram. Add to that some of Electric Wizard's ultra bassy, fuzzy, and distorted guitar tone and booming production values. Like other traditional doom metal albums, the riffs and rhythm patterns move in a lumbering and lurching fashion yet somehow the Witchsters inject some nice doses of sensual grooves that recall '70s Deep Purple. During various listening sessions I felt like I was inside Satan smoke filled strip club watching strippers complete with horns and cloven hooves gyrating their lovely tail clad asses for the merriment of us sinners and then suddenly I somehow realized that perhaps hell isn't really a bad place after all.

RAINBOWS ARE FREE - BELIEVERS IN MEDICINE
Reissued on smoke purple vinyl. The debut album from Oklahoma's stoner specialists RAINBOWS ARE FREE. Here's a heavy dose of drugged out psych rock/glam grooves in the vein of Black Sabbath, Queens Of The Stone Age, and Electric Wizard. Edition of 500, including download.

EXPECTED - 2013.09

UNCLE ACID & THE DEADBEATS - POISON APPLE
Yes, Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats have, in recent times, become one of the most talked about rock bands currently in existence. 'Mind Control' (their third full-length album) is set for release in April, following their two debut London sell-out concerts at The Garage. This single will be released the same week as those performances. From the album comes the monstrously catchy 'Poison Apple', which gives a glimpse into their exciting dark melodic realm and fuzzorama enhanced tales of terror and horror. 'Mind Control' is a concept album with a theme that makes the acts and intentions of the likes of Charles Manson and Jim Jones seem like petty crimes. What makes 'Mind Control' scarier than most albums is that it doesn't seem as sinister on the surface as it really is deep down within the core of its black acid-drenched world of pain and torture. It's very easy to get carried away and lost in the magnificent heavy groovy sounds and psychedelic jams but dont forget this UNCLE ACID HAS COME TO KILL!! TRACKLISTING: 01. POISON APPLE 02. UNDER THE SPELL

COVEN - WITCHCRAFT DESTROYS MINDS AND REAP SOULS
Whether it was coincidence, influence, or good old show biz imitation, Coven's 1969 album featuring the lead-off track "Black Sabbath" was released the same year as the formation of the more popular heavy metal band. To make the story more even interesting, Coven featured a bass player named Oz Osborne. The soon-to-be-famous Ozzy's band Black Sabbath emerged a year after the release of this LP with a similar image and their own song called "Black Sabbath."

JOSEFUS - NOT DEAD YET
Shroom Angel is proud to announce the impending release of JOSEFUS "Not Dead Yet" the legendary underground hard rock/psyche group from Houston that recorded the most devastating LP of the late 60's DEAD MAN. This "new" album will consist of recently discovered 1978 studio sessions that were thought to have been lost, but a former girlfriend of one of the band members found in a box and turned the reels over to us. We restored the tape, and upon mixing and mastering realized we had something pretty damn cool. We decided to pair these never before heard gems with some professionally recorded live material highlighting the bands ferocious stage act. The results, we feel, are going to have fans ecstatic. On vinyl only, and individually number stamped and ltd. to 500 copies, these will not last.

Image

DOPETHRONE - DEMONSMOKE
LTD to 250 pieces on colored vinyl. Dopethrone encompass the bleakness of black metal, the steadfastness of New Orleans-style sludge, and a heavier-than-thou doom mentality. The riffs are thick, punishing, suffocating and destructive. The Demonic vocals are harsh, visceral and animal-like. And the mood is heavy and oppressive. Dopethrone features members of: Vatican, Downtrodden, Unquintessence, Tumbleweed Dealer (ex)Excreted Cowboy and (ex)Fatal Flaw.

MAUDLIN - A SIGN OF TIME
Heavy psychedelic doom rock from Belgium! The listener will be subjected to MAUDLIN's raw soul and deep emotions, drenched in a halucinogetic atmospheric pool, combined with sheer brutal power. This conceptual album is suitable for fans of bands as diverse as Neurosis, Type O-Negative, Cave In and even Pink Floyd.

Image

SPELLJAMMER - VOL II
Limited 250 copies coloured vinyl. Slow and heavy Swedish stoner/doom. Recorded and produced by Spelljammer / mixed and mastered by Billy Anderson / cover art by Niklas Olsson.

Image

WANDERING MIDGET - (GREY) FROM THE MEADOWS OF OPIUM DREAMS (2LP)
LP , limited 350x silver grey vinyl. After four seemingly endless years of deep, earshattering silence, the Wandering Midget returns from his secret travels into the unknown, and again holds us spellbound with new tales of the strange, the sad, the evil and the macabre. Classic Finnish Doom Metal that truly is one of its kind - epic and sorrowful, mystical and obscure, hauntingly beautiful, melancholic, occult, lyrical and dark!
