Rhinocervs - The Odour Of Dust & Rot

Genre: Black Metal
Origin: United States

Having already been a fan of the crepsculo negro label and it's associated bands it was only natural that i also check out the rhinocervs label which is apparently ran by the man behind the Glossolalia project.  After the first two untitled mini compilations were released, the way was paved for this monsterous behemoth.  Put bluntly if you were remotley a fan of the first two rhinocervs compilations you must own this!  The sheer immense quality of the labels releases is nothing short of phenomenal and with the news of yet another untitled compilation due to be released any time now,  the future looks bright (or dark) for this small underground label.

1. Unkown Artist - Enslave Every Star
2. Glossolalia - Filth In The Light
3. Absum - Living Graves
4. Unknown Artist - Strain I

The Black Twilight Circle - Worship Black Twilight

Genre: Black Metal
Origin: United States


The black twilight circle' original compilation.  Although it was beleived to be out of press not long after it's original release the guys at the Crepsculo Negro label announced a few months ago that they had found a small number of copies in their lock-up and made them available for sale.  These were to be the last ones available ever and me being an avid fan of the collectives output i made sure to get myself hold of one.  For anyone who has already heard the collectives other official release this will be nothing new.  Six tracks from six different bands creating one awesome compilation cd of amazing black metal.  If you don't already own the material of the bands featured on here i suggest downloading this as a great introduction to some of the most exciting black metal coming out of the US at the moment.

Witchclan - Promo Tape 2011

Genre: Black Metal
Origin: United Kingdom


Witchclan are a band still firmly rooted in the UK underground, but were also part of the original black metal scene of the early 90's.  Having release two demos in 90 & 91 the band eventually split and the witchclan name remained dormant for a number of years.  Then in 2009 Matt Bass one of the members of the band decided to start the Witchclan name up again as a solo project in order for him to fully oversee every aspect of the bands sound and writing.  With a new demo released in 2010 Matt struck a deal to release a full length album which is to be released September/October through Darkness Shade records.   The full length is titled Misanthropist and pre-orders are already being taken.  However a small amount of promo tapes had been made (limited run of 15) to be sent to labels in order for them to hear the new material.  Most of these were sent out with 2 or 3 remaining, these tapes contain the rough versions of three of the tracks that will appear on the final album.  Me being a hoarding collector at heart and already a fan of the band after buying their original demo contacted Matt and managed to get my hands on one.  After the first listen i knew the full length was going to be amazing, the comparison with the 2010 demo is night and day.  Every aspect of the sound, song writing, composition etc has taken massive strides forward and made this a release i am anticipating to a massive degree.


Track Listing:
1. Intro
2. Conqueror
3. Through Nordic Lands
4. Misanthropist
5. Outro

Grimorc - The Devil's Touch

Genre: Black Metal
Origin: Finland


A one man project from Finland in the form of Grimorc.  This their second demo and only other release since 2002 is very heavily worshiping at the altar of Burzum, and to be honest this is the reason it works so well.  It could just come accross like a blatant rip off of one of black metals best bands, but instead it's more of a humble homage in honour of the style that Varg created.  With this in mind, this release actually comes accross really well and is basically for anyone who's ever remotley enjoyed a Burzum album.  No online rip of this but copies of the tape are still floating around in distros.  check it out if you get the chance.

Track Listing

1. My Revenge
2. Heroes Of The War
3. The God Of Total War
4. The Devil's Touch
5. Through The Dismal Path
6. The Darklords Ring

Ashdautas - Where the Sun Is Silent

Genre: Black Metal
Origin: US


A more melodic proposition from the black twilight circle with vocals that are the stuff of nighmares, Ashdautas have always taken the melodic yet chaotic approach when it comes to their own brand of black metal.  This there newest release is essentially more of the same and continues in the same vein of their previous releases, however this time the song writing and execution are a bit more developed and make this release their best so far.  A must have for fans of dark and chaotic black metal.


Track Listing

1.	Purity of Disease
2.	With Blades We Speak
3.	Synaesthesia (Where the Sun is Silent)
4.	The Yawning Black Beyond

Blue Hummingbird On The Left - Bloodflower

Genre: Black Metal
Origin: US


Another brilliant release from the black twilight circle.  Originally released on cassette and now released on 7 inch vinyl, this 3 song ep contains a powerful raw riff powered black metal beast with all the poorly recorded charm of previous black twilight releases.  Lyrically focusing on mexican nationalism and pride with a musical twist added to the mix in the form of traditional mexican insturments.  As bizzare as this is made to sound it works amzingly well with the traditional instruments complimenting the black metal onslaught that blue hummingbird on the left deliver.


Track Listing

1. Cuauh Youalli
2. Southern Rules Supreme
3. Bloodflower
