Here's the newest 8-song 10" from No Fealty, a Copenhagen based crust/hardcore band. They describe themsleves as caring about fast, loud, abrasive and aggressive music, politics, DIY and nice people. Their name basically means "No Loyalty". As far as their music goes, it's a non-stop barrage of ANGRY hardcore that stays mid-tempo for the most part, while dropping in bits of blast beats here and there along with a lot of interesting breakdowns. Above all else, the recording and production is top notch, making this record even more enjoyable.

PARAMNESIA is a French black-metal band and their half of this split is a 15min. track enigmatically named "III". This is epic, searing and mystical black-metal with some atmospheric post- and doom-metal sections included. If you think of black-metal such as DEAFHEAVEN you’ll be in the right area stylistically. UNRU from Germany, made some waves with their demo and split LP, contribute a 13min. song called "die welt in der wir sterben" to this release. UNRU's offering is a real mood-builder, with melody and post-metal influences tempered against the harsh, icy black-metal. The anguished vocals slice through the music and as with PARAMNESIA’s track the sound is first-rate and everything flows perfectly. The artwork sums up the top quality release.

Hailing from the woods of Tacoma, WA, Novemthree has been releasing small-run CDRs, 7”s and tapes since early 2000’s, crafting gently dark and dreamlike tunes of psychedelic-fringed folk music with verses inspired by a longing for a connection with Nature, the sense of solitude and peace in the vastness of the cosmos, meandering reflections on life and loss. After all these years, the time has come for a long-due vinyl release.
For this best match split LP each band has created and recorded brand new songs to dance together on a beauty invocation, on a feast of passion that will awake our sleeping "self", our true soul. Avant! joins forces with german Sick Man Getting Sick, french Boue and Pablo’s own imprint Música Máxica to release a one-time pressing of 500, coming in thick gatefold sleeve with dedicated artwork courtesy of domestic artist and friend BlutTanzt.

Intense blackened hardcore mob Hexis have teamed up with harrowing
sludge bruisers Redwood Hill for a split release that showcases two of
Denmark’s most promising contemporary bands !
Hexis’ contribution, the absolutely terrifying ‘Tenebris’, is a furious little number, rife with black metal-esque bile and a palpable sense of anger. The band has also released a video for the song, created by Craig Murray (Converge, Narrows, Oxbox etc.), which you can view below.
Meanwhile, Redwood Hill dole out some slow motion punishment with the grinding ‘Applewhite’, resembling a much more evil version of Cult Of Luna. This is the first new material the band have released since dropping their monolithic debut album ‘Descender’.
The split is a 7″ picture disc pressed at 500 copies only !

AMAROK / PYRAMIDO (Split LP)
500 copies pressed (100 in brown and 400 in black)
AMAROK: AMAZING doom. Dark, brooding, heavy and intense. members of THE MAKAI lay down fucking lava-esque doom with noice harmonies, triple vocals, they mix khanate drone doom with modern atmospheric doom , kinda like thou
PYRAMIDO: “HEAVY.” – the band is just seriously demented psychedelic-doom in the vein of Grief, Electric Wizard and Noothgrush. The band is doomy, sludgy, crusty, stoner-esque, and while their music is laced with generics, there is also something extremely well calculated about their brand of doomy sludge. but, there is less of the Electric Wizard and more the Eyehategod, Goatsblood, Iron Monkey, and early High On Fire coming through the tunes on this split, even some hardcore; so I guess you could say it’s out goes the doom, in comes pure crusty, dry- retching, abrasive sludge.

ENTH / AMAROK (Split LP)

A massive doom assault, ENTH from Poland play kind of funeral doom with a strong Corrupted influence. Perhaps it's because of the piano parts that they add to their song. AMAROK from the California (US) mix Khanate drone doom style with a great modern doom touch. Kinda like thou with dual vocals.

HUATA "Atavist of Mann" 2xLP + Digipack CD
Doom sludge from Rennes (Brittany - Fr) in the lineage of Electric Wizard, Goatsnake, Ramesses...
"Our doctrine deals with ancients rites coming from holy times, old practices and ancient beliefs. But beyond what may seems folkloristic fables of a bygone era, lies a truth that the ages have erased, a wisdom which nothing remains today that the incantatory rituals exposed in Atavist Of Mann. You will be able to discover the occult side of the modern history, satanic truth about commanders and sects chiefs, holy quests and processions through infernal lands, and great prophecies to come"
"Atavist of Mann" it's a long black mass of 6 chapters to glorify the Lord of Doom !
On the 2xLP figures a bonus track: a cover from the cult band COVEN, "Black Sabbath".

MENTAT "AMARILLO ABISAL" - CD version (2010) Pressed 500 copies
CD edition of 'Amarillo Abisal' of MENTAT (Valencia -Spain), who contain six length songs of apocalyptic instrumental doom. For a total of 56 minutes of death atmosphere !
'Great
CD from MENTAT, really high quality from this Spanish band. The sound
fairly difficult to pin down but they have a strong experimental side to
their sludge, doom and post hardcore sound. Mostly screamed vocals are
given the perfect counterpoint by some beautiful ambient sections and
there are some real surprises here like the use of brass and clean piano
in parts. Well worth checking out.
6 tracks in 56 minutes, this is a very mature recording and an engrossing and epic listen.'

SPLIT LP TOAD / DRONE THRONE (FEW COPIES LEFT - No Trade) Pressed 500 copies - Artwork cover draw black & white interchangeable with lyrics insert and black vinyl.
TOAD
from Arizona, play a raw and energetic punk hardcore with some modern
rock'n'roll, that remember me the old MURDER CITY DEVILS (RIP). They
sound like a dirty criminal !
DRONE
THRONE next stuff after the demo. Four new songs of sludge / stoner
with the anger of Evil beast in the lineage of Sleep and Bongzilla.
Recorded at Arcane Digital Recording
"Both
bands are from Arizona, but they represent pretty disparate styles of
music. DRONE THRONE plays a pretty standard sludge metal/punk hybrid
that gets a little too stoner-y at times for my taste, paying homage to
EYEHATEGOD, SLEEP, GRIEF, and the like. I definately relate to their
side of the split more. It has some strong riffs and some pretty Zen
moments. To my ears, TOAD fits the category of indie punk, sounding
something like MILE MARKER, HOT WATER MUSIC, and 45 GRAVE in a blender."
" "DRONE THRONE wins out on this split."

DRONE THRONE DEMO CD-R
(Released 100 copies)
5 songs of powerful and criminal sludge stoner in the lineage of Sleep, Floor, Eyehategod, Bongzilla...
"Whoa.
This thing is a beast, heavy and sludgy reminding me of an evil version
of SLEEP's Holy Mountain period. Though while SLEEP sang about smoking
pot and Christian mysticism, these guys sing about smoking pot and
Satan. So, i guess that whole evil thing makes sense. Fuzzed out bass
and vocals, nicely distorted guitars, samples that reference crime and
Satan... Who the fuck are these guys and where are they from? This does
not sound like a band producing their first demo but well seasoned
veterans. If you have any interest in stoner rock/metal track this
down!"
