Conceptual soundtrack for a unique video made during one of the first arctic expeditions. 8 long tracks of buzzing oppressive drone ambient with cold and dangerous atmosphere. Lim. 50 copies.
Villainous poems gushing forth into the blurred awareness, connected by murky abstract sequences of disordered groans, layers of subdued guitar feedback and a sparing use of electronics. This will either inspire unrestricted repulsion or fascination.
A powerful compilation CD by the highly infective Belgian Electro/Wave duo, capturing the essence of their evocative sound that has captivated audiences worldwide. This release brings together the most electrifying tracks from their acclaimed early 3 EPs.
After a number of highly successful EPs and the mini-album "Kill your Idols", the time has finally come for the first proper full length by this amazing Electro act, seemingly the rightly heirs of both the famous Sound Of Belgium and also classical EBM!
A sonic assault of propulsive basslines, intricate percussive layers, and an undeniable energy that solidifies ULTRA SUNN's position as torchbearers of modern EBM. "The Beast In You" is not just an album; it's an invitation to embrace the untamed within.
A work full of contrast - perfect and inconsistent at the same time, composed in masterly brilliance. Sleepless nights, the passion of a love affair or a heated duel at dusk... Emotional electronics - the amalgamation of embers and ice!

The very first Ulver album, and a quintessencial landmark in the Norwegian Black Metal scene. Ulver set the soundtrack to a grim nordic fairytale, by incorporating Folk elements into the harsh Black Metal stylings.
A classic release, that would set new ground for the band. Following their Black Metal debut, "Kveldssanger" saw Ulver take on a fully acoustic, pastoral Folk orientation that would serve as inspiration for many to come. Essential.
Moments of utter quietude ruptured only by spirals of electronic esoterica, to moments of cascading keyboards that continually engage a cycle of calm self-destruction, only to emerge in reconfigured form.
Ulver's soundtrack to the infamous "Svidd Neger" movie, a berserker cabaret of incest, murder and rape in the ripe nature of Norway. A crystal selection from Ulver's filthy and fragmented body for the film, reworked and compiled for the listening blind.
The seventh studio album by the Norwegian experimental band Ulver. Low-key, dark and tragic, "Shadows of the Sun" somehow brings to mind Coil's most melodic outputs. Recommended.
Ulver's 4th album offers a musical setting of William Blake's book The Marriage of Heaven and Hell, consisting of elements from drum and bass, progressive rock, spoken word, industrial music, and black metal, fused into a somewhat ambient new style.
Ulver continue to evolve in their progressive take on music, now touching on the polished sensibilities of pop and rock to combine them with the baroque menagerie of acoustic instrumentation and the electronic extravaganza that the band master so well.
Classic psychedelic tracks re-worked by Norwegian legends! A collection of classic - mostly obscure - tracks recorded by the band over an extended period and a few different sessions that showcases Ulver's love for Sixties' garage rock and psychedelia.
A new album, consists of over 80 minutes worth of multitracked and studio-enhanced live, mostly improvisational, rock and electronic soundscapes. Influences are diverse, ranging from Prog, electronica and Krautrock, showcasing Ulver's love of 70s music.
Riverhead is the original score to a film by Justin Oakey. A hushed, airy and ominous soundtrack from the Norwegian masters, touching on Nordic and Celtic folk music from within an ambient/atmospheric frame.
Ulver's first fully fledged studio album since 2011’s "Wars of the Roses". They call it "their pop album,” something they have been longing to do for years, and their unruly play with myth, history and popular culture has never been more manifest.
The sad remains from "Assassination of Julius Caesar", Ulver's Caesarean banquet. The EP brings two songs left on the drawing board at the time of the album, plus a cover of 'The Power Of Love', by Frankie Goes To Hollywood.
If the Zodiac album was a free-form Ulver interpreting the signs in the stars, "Drone Activity" stares into the abyss, documenting those moments after the last rays of sun speckle the surface and careless subterranean streams start determining the course.

Along with Flowers of Evil comes Wolves Evolve: The Ulver Story, a 336-page book, reflecting on over 25 years of Ulver history. 336 pages, 18,9 x 24,6 cm, colour print, design paper. Shipping in late August!
A chamber music piece, commissioned by the Tromsø Kulturhus, in a cooperation with the Arctic Opera and Philharmonic Orchestra. Closer to contemporary Classical than anything else, this is yet another brilliant evidence of their boundless talent.
Hexahedron documents the second of the two dazzling, sold-out Ulver shows in the legendary Studio at Henie Onstad Kunstsenter at Høvikodden back in April 2018. A special commission and “an honourable undertaking”, as described by Tore Ylwizaker.
Sometimes classy and chilling, other times amusingly smooth and sleazy, and at times outright beautiful in its suspense-filled vigour, "Scary Muzak" is an inspired, goblinesque addition to the ever-expanding Ulver catalogue, honoring Carpenter's themes!
Ulver's 4th album offers a musical setting of William Blake's book The Marriage of Heaven and Hell, consisting of elements from drum and bass, progressive rock, spoken word, industrial music, and black metal, fused into a somewhat ambient new style.
Hailed by critics and clerics upon its release, and described by the band as a maelstrom full of wreckage, it is undoubtedly their most byzantine and excessive work to date. A trip through the lavish void.
30th anniversary release of the legendary demo tape from Norway's young wolves. Sourced from original DAT, including bonus live track from Bootleg TV (November 1993), sourced from original U-matic (The National Library of Norway).

The official release of Ulver’s monumental Grieghallen concert from the 2018 Bergen International Festival documents the pinnacle of Ulver’s 2017–2018 touring cycle, following the release of their landmark album "The Assassination of Julius Caesar".
“A pinnacle of turn of the millennium musical experimentalism” – containing elements of Trip Hop, Jazz, Spoken Word, Ambient and Electronica, which offers a deeply personal and cinematic experience. Includes the "Metamorphosis EP" (1999)!
At the end of the roughest year in their history, Ulver is proud to release their thirteenth studio album. "Liminal Animals" is permeated by the smell of disaster and documents, with deep concern, a dark and troubled place in a dark and troubled time.
The sound of an escape. A journey into undiscovered lands, reminiscent of the mood and structure of that place where late ’90s IDM sounds met the meandering structures of Post-Rock, reminiscent of their "Perdition City" times, or even COIL!
Raised on a diet of classic Neofolk, Black Metal atmospherics and bizarre occultism, the Ulvesang collective set about crafting their first suite of songs, which ushered in a new wave of Canadian Neofolk.
Known for his collaborative work with Svartsinn as well as his work with Wordclock (Cryo Chamber), cellist and composer Amund Ulvestad presents some of his more obscure ambient and textural works in this debut album. Lim. 300x.
A blend of dark, martial, pulsating rhythms and ambient organic soundscapes which serves as a sonic gateway to otherworldly realms, offering a glimpse into the abyss that challenges and expands the listener's perception of the known universe. Lim. 300x.
Six tracks of extremely intense, well crafted, direct and aggressive Black Metal not unlike the greats such as Katharsis and Funeral Mist, but yet maintaining it’s own identity.
With hints to bands like Funeral Mist and Katharsis, Umbra Conscientia deliver an agressive, heavy, hard hitting, pitch Black Metal album which holds nothing back. The slower speed on this one also translates into a heavier approach.
Un Défi D'Honneur (A Challenge of Honour) (Holland)
13.00EUR • approx. 18.9USD [ temp. out of stock ] : [ pre-order ]
2nd album by the A Challenge of Honour French alias! Peter Savelkoul returns with 8 brandnew tracks of Martial/Neo-Classical music, with some very suprising compositions.
Yet another resurrected piece of 90s history, from the Czech Republic. Although not quite as well known or accomplished as countrymen such as Root or Master's Hammer, Unclean's take on morbid and gloomy Black Metal deserves investigation. Lim. 500x.
Undertheskin strikes back with his second album. Hypnotic drum machine, harsh guitars, lead synths and cavernous voice flow in perfect harmony on the seven tracks included on the new album. More than a must have for any modern dark sound lover.
A dark, minimalist Cold-Wave atmosphere that immediately draws you in! The tracks feel like frozen shadow spaces, driven by raw bass lines and sparse synth textures, as the vocals remain deliberately distant, adding a ghostly layer of intensity.
"Vardlokkur" marks a return to the oppressive and dark sonority of found on “Heljarrùnar" (2020), multilayered and otherworldly shamanic minimalism. This offering offers a purified approach to Undirheimar’s sound with a more simplistic and constant pulse.
New opus from the ever enigmatic Ritual act. "Ginnungagaldr" is the result of over 3 years of contemplative, ritual and shamanic based work centered on the uncreated primordial nothingness of pre-creational chaos, crafting an audio talisman.
Undirheimar delves deeper than ever into the project’s uncompromising spiritual and sonic vision, unfolding as a six-part ritual chant rooted in the ancient meditative practice of Utiseta, where voice alone becomes both medium and conduit. Lim. 200x.
Helvetic Black Metal deeply rooted in medieval lore and tales of pestilent witchcraft. Ten Walpurgis Black Metal spells that continue the band's trademark sound; fusing filthy, rustic Black Metal conjurations and occasional Folk instrumentation.
Ungfell's first recordings show the project in its rawest form, yet nevertheless showcase their promise with Menetekel's ability to craft intricate, yet catchy melodies and embed them in actual songs as opposed to mere riff sequences clearly noticeable.
Ungfell's atmospheric Black Metal abducts listeners on a sonic journey detailing moral ambivalence and treachery, set in a seemingly idyllic rural village in pre-modern times. The story unfolds, accompanied by ravaging riffs and gripping songwriting.
"Totbringaere" brought forth the most hideous pestilence in the form of frenetic riff work and melodies of medieval death. An anthology of horror, filth and sinister witchcraft from a time that may seem foreign to modern man.
"De Ghörnt" explores dark Swiss myths, focusing on a folk tale about a hunter's tragic encounter with the goat-like entity Rollibock. Musically, it blends intense Black Metal with atmospheric and Folk elements, with an evocative artwork to match.
With every movement of "American Standard", Uniform peels off a new layer and tells the story inside of the one that came before it, to present a portrait of mental and physical illness.
15.00EUR • approx. 21.8USD [ temp. out of stock ] : [ pre-order ]
A dense journey, rooted in a balance between power and calm, raging and serene sound, but also between complex arrangements and contemplative moments. It carries their Avant-Rock tradition, extended to include more electronic, tribal and haunting sounds.
"The Road: Part II (Lost Highway)" is the sixth regular studio album, that released on 29 March 2019. The album has been described by James Lavelle as a mixtape more than an actual album, consisting in songs recorded before and during "The Road" sessions.

Post Black Metal trailblazer Unreqvited teams up with multi-instrumentalist Sylvaine in an amalgam of shared respect and experimentation that pairs two divergent styles for one incredibly memorable listening experience.
Unreqvited lays down the foundation for their somber, melancholic sound by using hallmark principles of Black Metal like torrential blast beats and tremolo sparingly, opting for emphasis on melodies and synthesizers instead.
A sequel to "Mosaic I", which originally served as "an outlet for joy, euphoria and passion". "Mosaic II", on the other hand, contains the ire, misery and anxiety in between, making it his darkest and most daring release yet.
On their sixth album, Canadian Post-Black Metal stalwart Unreqvited set out to fearlessly explore love, by including many lighter and more uplifting passages than ever, although dark twists are balancing the score.
31.00EUR • approx. 45USD [ temp. out of stock ] : [ pre-order ]
A brilliant Blackgaze soundtrack. An impressive evolutionary leap, with a novel exploration into a predominantly lyrical realm as Unreqvited step away from mostly expansive soundscapes towards more singing. Inc. bonus track and enhanced artwork, lim. 500.

Unto Ashes conjures a stirring and captivating album, simultaneously beautiful and unsettling, which effortlessly spans the ages from a dark and medieval flair to modern apocalyptic Gothic-Folk. Lim. 500x.
Inspired by a resplendent tapestry of Apocalyptic Folk, Gothic, and Neoclassical influences, "Orchids..." is an enigmatic excursion into existential terror; of bliss and tragedy; of love and beauty; of hope in the face of universal void. Lim. 300x.
Previously known as Idles Hands, Unto Ashes now brings this new version of "Don't Waste Your Time", which unifies parts I & II in a new packaging. A fine work of heavy Gothic Rock.
13.00EUR • approx. 18.9USD [ temp. out of stock ] : [ pre-order ]
Unto Others first full-length album back in print! "Mana" conjures up an emotive 40-minute ride into the realms of Heavy Metal, New Wave, Goth Rock, and continues to solidify the band's unique brand of heavy music.
Unto Others return from the graveyard with "I Believe in Halloween II", offering three new tracks and covers of The Misfits's 'Halloween' and The Ramones' 'Pet Sematary'. Lim. 400x.
Unto Others' innovative combination of Gothic, Rock and Metal pushes the genre over the edge with familiar, comforting elements. Creating a mix of heavy, dark, melodic songs intertwined with traditional metal remains the band's forte.
The cult demo of Norwegian Avant-garde Black Metal band Ved Buens Ende, originally released 1994 on cassette tape. This re-issue includes bonus tracks and liner notes by all 3 members!
A new milestone in modern Gothic Rock written by poly-instrumentist Babis Nikou (Opened Paradise, Angel's Arcana, Hada) and vocalist Nino Sable (Aeon Sable). A refreshing combination of innovation, emotional depth, and a dark aesthetic.
The Unwound album that ended all Unwound albums. Infinite layers of choppy guitar stabs and bridge scrapes, guttural bass thronk, thrift store synths, and monotone chanting wash over suffocating rhythms to deliver the world's only choral Grunge LP.
Hundreds of tiny fragments of sound have been pieced together to form textures, bass lines, and drum hits. In essence, it’s the vision of using percussion as the basic building block of every sound.
Urban Heat fuses dark 80s stylings with modern flourishes and undeniable danceability. This is the extended version of their breakout debut, which has earned them the title of one of the most exciting acts in the Austin Post-Punk / SynthPop revival scene.
One of Austin's top exports with its infectious Darkwave anthems! “The Tower” features the band at their absolute peak. Songs like the arena-ready “Seven Safe Places” and the intricately steady “Take it to Your Grave” show their sonic versatility.
These rituals were previously released under different formats in close cooperation with various bands and labels, and are now compilled by Herr Deportator who remastered them very thoroughly the Urfaust way into a homogene full length.
The revered and praised "URFAUST-Sound" has managed to go further and further into unexplored territories of the dark cosmos, resulting in one hell of a trip consisting of 6 songs that will take you beyond…

Urfaust has returned once again to harvest souls in their vessel of transcending intoxication. The trademark ritual ambient mixed with epic doom black metal has never sounded so claustrophobic.
Slow and sludgy ritualistic Black Metal. Cold and hard bitten as autumn fog! Ritualistic dilatoriness, fierce and opulent guitar solos, mystic scents of keyboards and the extraordinary and unique vocals.
Urfaust's final manifestation! Recorded in the bunker with Deportator & adorned with the amazing art of Iza Carlucci, specially crafted for this ride into the afterlife, you know what to expect - or do you? Hail URFAUST!

Oscillating between Drone and Ambient, in a mysterious and hazy atmosphere which often echoes the work of Coil, Uruk evoke images of interstellar travel or mental explorations which immerse the listener in a dense and complex sound universe.
Legends and myth, rites and cries. Debut album by this Portuguese traditional Folk ensemble, highly recommended for fans of Sangre Cavallum, Àrnica or Sturmpercht, with a distinct Northern Portuguese flavor.

Second and final chapter of their ode to Autumn. Bonds to both Nature and tradition are at the heart of the band's rendition of Dark Folk, and both skillfully come together on this acoustic introspective incursion into life's ever-looming solitude.
Drawing from a palette of multiple traditional instruments, and borrowing from select field recordings, Urze de Lume have built a unique cinematic piece that transforms Folk and World Music into living memory and lore.
