ALBUM COVER: Nordicwinter - Sorrow

Posted by Nick Skog on Tuesday, January 26, 2021, In : Nordicwinter

After the releases of the "Requiem" and "Desolation" full-length albums in 2020, Nordicwinter returns with "Sorrow" this spring, marking its third release in two years and continuing a very prolific period for the project.

As with its previous records, "Sorrow" examines the darker side of the human condition through somber and melancholic music. Sticking at a mostly mid-tempo pace, the tracks on "Sorrow" (with the exception of the outro) are all between 7-10 minutes in length, and flow with se...

Posted by Nick Skog on Tuesday, January 26, 2021, In : a noend of mine

As we initially mentioned last week, Hypnotic Dirge will be working with a noend of mine to release their second full-length album "Sanctuaires".

Today, we are unveiling the album art crafted by contemporary Ukrainian artist Katya Buchatska, as well as the more insight into the record and the full tracklist.

Sanctuaires is a second album by a noend of mine, a project by Les Vynogradov (Vin de Mia Trix, Kauan). Sanctuaires marks a departure from the mellow proggy vignettes found on anom’s deb...

Album notes:

Originally released on June 20, 2020, Nordicwinter’s “Desolation” followed the release of “Requiem” in April marking the project’s second full-length release in a span of 3 months after a 13 year gap between the debut album “Threnody” in 2007 and these two new records!

Posted by Nick Skog on Wednesday, January 13, 2021, In : a noend of mine

a noend of mine (anom) is a project by Les Vynogradov (Vin de Mia Trix, Kauan) based in Kyiv, Ukraine. The genre of anom can be loosely described as melancholic post-prog.

This was followed by several European gigs, supporting Antimatter and Krobak, among others, as well as a tour of China. One concert was filmed and released as Live Serenity in 20...

PRE-ORDERS: Omination - NGR

Posted by Nick Skog on Friday, January 8, 2021, In : Omination

Today, we launch pre-orders for the release of Omination's "NGR".

An absolute mammoth of a record, “NGR” (The New Golgotha Repvbliq) contains over an hour of some of the most encapsulating and ominous funeral doom metal to come out in quite some time. Combining abrasive and dissonant riffs with a shroud of atmospheric and monumental church organ and choirs, the instrumental aspect of this record is already massive, which is only enhanced by Fedor’s forceful growls, belted with conviction...
