UPDATES AND NEWS

VINYL RELEASE: NONE - selftitled

December 11, 2019
In conjunction with Viridian Flame Records, Hypnotic Dirge is proud to announce the release of NONE’s seminal self-titled debut album pressed on wax for the very first time!

NONE’s selftitled album, originally released in April 2017, was the first chapter for this enigmatic depressive black metal legacy which would be followed by additional full-lengths in April 2018 and 2019. The vinyl edition of the self-titled album also includes NONE’s stand-alone single “Where Life Should Be” - previously unavailable in any physical medium  - as a bonus track.

300 copies of the record has been pressed in total, 150 of which will be available through Hypnotic Dirge and 150 copies through Viridian Flame. 3 editions of the vinyl are available - a “winter sky” edition, a “dirty snow” edition, and a classic black record. We expect these to go quickly so we advise those who are interested to order quickly once pre-orders go live! In order to save on shipping, we also encourage North Americans to order from Hypnotic Dirge and Europeans to order from Viridian Flame. Those outside of North America or Europe should order from whoever they want as shipping will be roughly the same.



NONE’s selftitled record will officially be released on February 21, 2020.
Pre-orders will commence in early 2020.

Hypnotic Dirge is now officially located in Victoria, BC, Canada.

It won't be immediate, but orders will begin to ship out over the course of the next 1-2 weeks. This process might take a bit longer than initially expected as many of the boxes are still in Canada Post's warehouses and there is quite a backlog of orders.
