UPDATES AND NEWS

MERCH: Hypnotic Dirge Records commemorative merch available to pre-order!

December 14, 2018
We are taking pre-orders for some new label merch, released to commemorate ten years of our cold miserable existence!

We have zip-up hoodies available with a massively detailed 5 color back print (well, mostly various shades for ultimate detail!) of an original piece designed by the mighty Moonroot Art specifically for our anniversary merch. The front artwork is a new HDR design on the right-side chest. The hoodie itself is made from high-quality material, 50/50 cotton/polyester, with  a YKK metallic zipper, flat drawstrings, and ribbed cuffs.

Furthermore if the recently released NONE toque did not warm up the perpetually cold existential void, why not make another futile attempt? We are also releasing HDR toques (Beanies for you americans out there) with the new HDR crow silhouette design. These are the longer-length knit beanies which are extremely comfortable, warm, and stylish. The design itself will be embroidered directly onto the toque, and if the NONE toque is any indication, they will look amazing. 

Finally, we have printed a bunch of patches to go alongside our new merch. These are professionally printed 4” x 3” woven patches with merrowed edges and an adhesive backing, perfect for your patch jacket or guitar bag.

The only caveat to the patches is that they can’t be ordered on their own (the shipping just wouldn’t make sense) but you can add these to any order for no extra shipping cost.

We are also offering an HDR 10 Year Commemorative Pack where you can order the hoodie, toque, and patch together for a discounted price!! Unfortunately, international shipping on the hoodies are quite pricey, but there’s nothing that we could do about that since the hoodies are over 500g. However, if you order the commemorative pack, the shipping cost will be the same since it is still within the 500g-1kg range. In fact, you can add another shirt or up to 3 CD’s to your order for the exact same shipping rate so that might be something to consider since you are already paying for shipping within the 500g-1kg range.

All of the above merch is for pre-order and will be shipped out to you in late January! The new merch is available exclusively on our official webstore for the time being.

MUSIC VIDEO : Norilsk - “Weepers of the Land”!

December 4, 2018
Funeral rites and its iconography have a long history of weepers, or weeping figures – sad, heavy characters mourning the deceased. “Weepers of the Land” is a nod to the expression 'keepers of the land,' most often used in an indigenous and/or environment-related context, while referencing a less glorious side of history. The title song and concept is about what stays behind after someone vanishes.

The song was co-written with Joshua Cayer (Longhouse – bass/vocals), who is also guest v...

A couple of weeks ago, we announced Omgeving, the latest project to join our ranks for an album release later this year!
