UPCOMING RELEASE: Wills Dissolve - “Echoes” to be released Friday August 28, 2020

June 19, 2020

Wills Dissolve is a four-piece progressive blackened death metal band irrevocably tied to Houston and its history and legacy of astronomical science and exploration. Formed in 2015 by guitarist/vocalists Nick Block and Andrew Caruana, the lineup was quickly expanded to include Bassist Shaun Weller and Drummer Branson Heinz.

Since its inception, Wills Dissolve have always aimed to create albums centered around a cohesive narrative drawing from progressive predecessors Pink Floyd, Rush, and Yes...

DIGITAL RELEASE: Moonworshipper - 13 Fullmoon Nights of Loneliness

June 15, 2020

Truly avantgarde and genre-bending releases are still a somewhat rare phenomenon, especially those few who are able to retain a strong narrative and cohesion despite the confluence of various sounds and influences.

We believe that the French act "Moonworshipper" is one such act, blending together lo-fi suicidal black metal, with trip-hop, soundtrack music, doom, depressive pop, and jazz. The debut EP of Moonworshippers, entitled "13 Fullmoon Nights of Loneliness" is the start of a planned conc...

UPCOMING RELEASE: Ov Shadows - "I Djävulens Avbild" to be released on August 14, 2020

June 12, 2020

Ov Shadows is a Black Metal band from Gothenberg, Sweden. Rising from the ashes of "Waning", a band that all four members previously played in, Ov Shadows introduced their sound with the 2016 self-released EP "Monologues" before releasing its first full-length album "The Darkness Between Stars" in 2018.

This summer, Ov Shadows returns with their second full-length and first release on Hypnotic Dirge Records. Entitled "I Djävulens Avbild" (In the Devil's Image), the new record presents Ov Shad...

UPCOMING RELEASE: Marche Funèbre to release fourth full-length album “Einderlicht” on September 25

June 5, 2020

The Belgian quintet Marche Funèbre will be releasing their fourth full-length album “Einderlicht” (which translates as the light at/of the end) this fall. The new album brings all the elements known from Marche Funèbre: death, black, and doom metal in a unique mix, with strong melodies and a wide vocal approach.

Thematically, “Einderlicht” focuses on the strange ability of mankind to deliberately decide to end one’s life.

Never change a winning team as they say, so the new album was...

ALBUM RELEASE: Feral Light - Life Vapor

May 22, 2020

2020 marks the first release of Feral Light under the Hypnotic Dirge Records roster. The name is not new to the scene, being led by guitarist Andy Schoengrund (ex. Empires, ex. Wolvhammer), who formed Feral Light in 2015 with drummer Andrew Reesen, and shortly thereafter released a demo, an EP, and two full-lengths - 2017’s Void/Sanctity and 2019’s excellent Fear Rides a Shadow.

Firmly anchored in Blackened Post-Metal, Life Vapor - their third album -, not only builds up on the foundations...
