As the cold season is once more upon us, Hypnotic Dirge Records is proud to announce the brand new studio album by Canadian doom-death band NORILSK, scheduled for February 7, 2025.
The quartet known for its unique take on winter doom has assembled a brand new chapter in the band’s discography, building on the characteristics that made NORILSK what it is today while offering something undeniably contemporary. The new album, ‘Antipole,’ picks up where 2022’s EP ‘Beyond the Mountains’ left: with its slow doomy riffs, its cold melodies, its recognizable death growls, and a hint of post-metal atmosphere brought by its two guitars interplay. While offering rewarding surprises to those who have been following the band since its beginnings, this album is also a major step forward for the band, and an ideal point of entry to anyone new to the band or death-doom in general.
The album will be available in LP / CD / and digital formats. Pre-orders will follow in the coming weeks.
