Latest releases
Vanir
Melodic Death Metal band
from Denmark released the
seventh Full-length album
Epitome on February 16, 2024.
From the Sagas of old to the
halls of kings and the bloody
battlefields, Vanir’s music
has been put together,
without compromise,
with a fascination with
Scandinavian common
origins, and the blood spilled
throughout history.
The “Epitome” album cover is
a depiction of the Danish queen
Sorte Grethe (Black Greta). In
her own time, Margaret had a
reputation as a competent and
enlightened regent. Regent Margaret
was faced with the unresolved
conflict between the crown and the
archbishop. The song “Sorte Grethe”,
on the album, is about a bloody battle
where 12.000 men were killed to
protect her sons’ right to the crown.

Darkspace
Atmospheric Black Metal band
from Switzerland released the
fifth Full-length album Dark
Space -II on February 16, 2024.
DARKSPACE establishes
contact with the earthlings
yet again - an extensive aural
manifestation materializes.
Seemingly emerging out of the
depths of a stellar-mass black
hole, an otherworldly journey
through the cosmos presents
itself. With an icy-cold embrace
and psychedelic conductance,
the mysterious figures present
‘Dark Space -II’, a
singular album of
atmospheric black
metal beyond
human comprehension.
Fractal electronic
samples slice
through layers of
extraterrestrial
drones, manifesting an immersive
experience defying the boundaries
of the conventional black metal
genre. Vocal transmissions, like
whispers from the outer reaches,
seamlessly interwoven in the
chilling mix, add a haunting
dimension to the celestial
configuration.
Humans, prepare to embark
on a voyage beyond the known
realms. DARKSPACE invites you
to submerge into the enigmatic
voids of ‘Dark Space -II’, where the
frontiers of reality dissolve,
and the otherworldly
traces of black metal resonate
with unparalleled intensity.
