ALBUM NEWS: Obsidian Tongue - “A Nest of Ravens in the Throat of Time” to be re-released this winter!

September 28, 2018
Originally released through Hypnotic Dirge in the summer of 2013, Obsidian Tongue's stellar second opus “A Nest of Ravens in the Throat of Time” will finally be repressed again this winter. In what can only be considered a testament to the duo’s power and authenticity, the original pressing sold out within a year, and remained one of Hypnotic Dirge's most defining release.



“A Nest of Ravens in the Throat of Time” is an introspective journey through the collective unconscious of Man a...

PRE-ORDERS: Norilsk - Weepers of the Land; Trails of Doom Norilsk Pack

September 28, 2018
We are now accepting pre-orders for the new Norilsk's mini-album, entitled “Weepers of the Land”, which will be released worldwide by Hypnotic Dirge Records on October 12, 2018.

On October 12, doom-death entity Norilsk is set to release a brand new offering; an omen that autumn will be tuned down to doom and the bitter cold.

Weepers of the Land will be Norilsk’s third installment on Hypnotic Dirge Records.
