CATEGORY VI "Firecry" Official Cover Art, Track Listing, Street Date, Videos, Teaser Videos & Digital Singles Announced!


Bold and True Female Fronted Anthemic Canadian Power Metal / Classic 80’s Metal Combustion!!

The 1st embers sparked in the frosty Canadian Tundra of Newfoundland, Canada in 2011 when CATEGORY VI released their “Vinland” Demo.

The Highly Anticipated 4th album from the New Swedish Death Metal Gods!!!

  With roots dating back to the original 1990’s Death Metal scene, the core members of CARNAL SAVAGERY formed out of the ashes of cult CROMLECH. After several demo’s, gigs with Entombed, Dismember, Therion, Tiamat, Merciless, Meshuggah and some major label offers, Cromlech split with members forming other notorious bands such as Divine Souls, Wan and Desolation. Returning to their old school roots in 2020, CARNAL SAVAGERY formed and swiftly released their debut album “Grotesque Macabre” the same year.

   CARNAL SAVAGERY landed a multi-album deal with Moribund Records and released their follow-up masterpiece “Fiendish”, which proved to be 2021’s break-through Death Metal album of the year. They returned bearing the “Scent of Death” exactly 1 year later, once more delivering a sarcophagus-sized slab of putrid old school Death Metal!

   CARNAL SAVAGERY now unleashes their 4th and most accomplished album to date “Worm-Eaten”! “Worm-Eaten” is ripe with catchy melodic rhythms, memorable choruses, pounding drums, clear yet brutal vocals, and searing solos. While CARNAL SAVAGERY’s sound is based in the classic and loved Swedish / Gothenburg OSDM style, their tracks are also oozing with groove-laden AUTOPSY melodies, and ultra-brutal CANNIBAL CORPSE shreds, showing strong influence from the US Death Metal scene as well. “Worm-Eaten” delivers 12 tracks written, arranged and deranged to Death Metal perfection!

OCTOBER 1, 2020- Moribund Records is honored to welcome MALAMORTE to the Cult!



Moribund Records proudly announces a Cult Pact with Italy's occult MALAMORTE !!

Fans of Italian metal may recognize the name Alessandro Nunziati; this is a man full of talent and dark creativity! He's a well known musician, record producer and author, probably best known by the stage name Lord Vampyr (or L.V.). While initially made famous as the former vocalist and a founding member of Theatres des Vampires, L.V. has been for all intents and purposes a solo artist since 2004. His prior bands, such as Cain, Lord Vampyr, Hermeticum, and many others have led him even further down the occult paths, towards the sinister Heavy Metal realm of MALAMORTE!

MALAMORTE is definitely for fans of 'old school' Heavy Metal- if you worship King Diamond and Mercyful Fate, Death SS, or Venom, this sound is for you !! Occult lyrics accompany steadfast, dark Heavy Metal with extremely catchy rhythm, often lapsing the epic feel of True Heavy Metal and running up on the ritualistic moods of 80's Black Thrash.

"I am extremely excited and pleased to Finally have MALAMORTE join our Roster of original and leading True Metal bands. Not only have we been trying to get MALAMORTE on the label for at least the last 2 years, I have also been a long time fan of Alessandro Nunziati's many other / prior bands for decades!" Odin "The Old Goat Thompson, Label Manager at Moribund Records, proudly exclaims. "MALAMORTE is also the PERFECT addition to our 'expanding' list of True Heavy Metal bands along side Satan's Host and Where Evil Follows. Following MALAMORTE's last several INCREDIBLE albums, I think we ALL have a masterpiece of True Metal to look forward to in 2021 through this devilish pact!"

L.V. is currently in the process of creating the 5th full-length for MALAMORTE, and their Moribund Cult debut. "After many years of chasing each other, I am finally happy to announce that the Malamorte have reached an agreement with the Moribund Cult," announces Alessandro. "I believe there is a time for everything, this was the right time to be part of this historic label. I think we will work well together, because after so many years, we have not lost our passion for music and for certain themes.Now you just have to wait for the ritual to take place."

Official album details to be released soon! Follow the Moribund Cult & MALAMORTE for details as they surface!


SEPTEMBER 22, 2020- Moribund Records proudly welcomes DARK PSYCHOSIS to the Cult!



Moribund Records is honored to announce the return of scene legend Xaphan (SUMMON & MASOCHIST) with a new Cult pact!

Joy Division sacrificed by Slayer, Pink Floyd mutilated by Watain… make whatever abstract comparisons you wish – DARK PSYCHOSIS have crafted and perfected a unique sound all their own. Lead by 30+ year scene veteran Xaphan, best known as the singer/guitarist/songwriter from both Legendary Michigan bands SUMMON and MASOCHIST, DARK PSYCHOSIS creates a genre-bending new sound. Xaphan incorporates elements from indie rock, psychedelia, classic heavy metal, darkwave, post-punk, thrash, and, of course, black metal... a little bit of everything for lovers of truly unique and dark music!

When asked about his return to the Moribund Records Cult, Xaphan exclaimed, "I am excited to be working with Moribund Cult again and look forward to making more darkness together. Moribund has always supported my dark endeavors and it is great to be back! Much more darkness to come, and hell will follow!" Cultists, be 'forewarned' - if you haven't already gathered, this is not your typical Black Metal. It is beyond your expectations and well above the creative calling of any modern artists, an absolutely uncompromising vision of musical darkness is what will be found through the compositions of DARK PSYCHOSIS!

Not only is this US Black Metal maestro ready to release his 3rd album and Moribund Records Cult debut under the banner of DARK PSYCHOSIS, Xaphan is also immediately prepared to raise the curtain with 2 digital singles issued prior to the album release date. Each single will contain an exclusive “B-side” bonus track not available on the full album! But first... a few words from Moribund's Old Goat - "With unquenchable Flames of honor, I am personally stoked with the fires of Hell to have DARK PSYCHOSIS joining the Moribund Cult. Xaphan and I have worked together for decades through his prior Cult bands, who to this day remain some of my All-Time fave bands (and Moribund Releases), Masochist and Summon. With DARK PSYCHOSIS we will not only revive those Eternal Flames but lead the legions into new territories as the sound of DARK PSYCHOSIS is so much "broader", all whilst not sacrificing any of the True Cult-ness that has always made Xaphan's music and art SOO TIMELESS \m/." - Odin "The Old Goat" Thompson, Moribund Records Label Manager

Official album details to be released soon! Follow the Moribund Cult & DARK PSYCHOSIS for details as they surface!


SEPTEMBER 17, 2020- Moribund Records proudly announces a Cult pact with the Technical Russian Blackened Death Metal act ODEM!!



Moribund Records is proud to welcome ODEM to the cult with the release of the band’s second full-length album!

ODEM immediately overtakes all listeners with a high-speed frontal assault of dark, Death brutality! While both technical and progressive, each previously released and future album is sure to be sustained by an absolutely smothering atmosphere of callous savagery. ODEM's unwavering, yet dissonant sound retains a melodic sensibility without loosing the intensity and ferocity that Death Metal fans worship.

ODEM appeared in late 2008, and to this day consists of the same 3 original members (S.N./S.V./KH). Their purpose? To spread the darkest forms of psychopathic fantasies through the shape of extreme metal music with parareligious lyrics of evolutionary distorted values concerning "good" and "evil". Through their occult lyrics and technical brutality, ODEM are certainly the heaviest and most oppressive Blackened Death metal outfit to ever have emerged from St. Petersburg!

This fall, Moribund Records will release the new full-length from this ungodly trio. "It took pretty much time for the Stigmatas of our subconscious to gain a truly imposing embodiment, incarnation in musical shape," relays S.N., sole composer and guitarist/lyricist of ODEM; "Five viscous hymns framed in minor key are to excise your ear with the eucharist of our lunacy". More information about ODEM's Moribund Cult debut to be revealed soon!


JULY 8, 2020- The Moribund Cult proudly announces a pact with Portugal’s LAW OF CONTAGION!!



LAW OF CONTAGION has signed an official pact with Moribund Records! After decades of cloaked involvement with several well known underground bands, Ishkur as LAW OF CONTAGION explicitly sounds his own sordid orisons and pure Luciferian vision. The result is a superbly dingy and murky Occult Black / Death Metal with well crafted rhythm. Moribund Records is proud to present the debut release from LAW OF CONTAGION, cult & contagious Luciferian BLACK / DEATH METAL of the Highest Order!!!

“The dungeonous Luciferian Litanies of LAW OF CONTAGION are some of the darkest, most cult sounding Black / Death Metal I’ve heard since the early 1990’s! We are very pleased to have them as part of our continually growing Roster of extreme artists.” - Odin Thompson, Moribund Records Label Manager

“Woeful Litanies from the Nether Realms”, the debut album from LAW OF CONTAGION, is to be released this summer on Moribund Records. Official release details coming soon!!


JULY 8, 2020- The Moribund Cult proudly announces an unprecedented pact with Canadian Black Metal Poet LORD MATZIGKEITUS!!



Moribund Records is honored to establish a pact with LORD MATZIGKEITUS, not merely for musical releases but also for print publication! Since 2014, LORD MATZIGKEITUS existing as a solo band has insolently carved its own path in the shadows while Lord Matzigkeitus' other fiendish endeavors wrought unholy havoc on the Black Metal landscape. Soon to be unveiled is a new, unheard of conquest to redefine the dark arts through groundbreaking ventures in sound and print productions. The indisputable master of unholy shrieking himself, LORD MATZIGKEITUS now screams warlike and unashamed in twisting gnarled chaos as he delivers his eloquent and terrifying spell possession.

"Fear change, fear the bold, reckless souls that dare blaze their own trails... ...for those are the ones who shatter the foundations of everything you once loved." - Lord Matzigkeitus

“Drown”, the 4th album from LORD MATZIGKEITUS, is to be released late this summer on Moribund Records. The Moribund Cult will also be publishing the upcoming "Spell Possessed", a book containing the libretti to accompany future opera from THE PROJECTIONIST and Black Metal poetry from the cruel hands of Lord Matzigkeitus. Official publication and album details coming soon!!


JULY 8, 2020- Carnal Savagery signs a gruesome pact with the Moribund Cult!



Moribund Records is proud to announce the signing of Sweden’s CARNAL SAVAGERY!! Suffering not from modern polished Death Metal aesthetics, CARNAL SAVAGERY harkens to the flesh crawling discomfort that Autopsy championed at the dawn of the genre. Ugly, gore-soaking sinew twists dynamically from thick, cryptic dirge into frenzied, blast-beating murder while showing a maturity of structure. CARNAL SAVAGERY is a melodic, yet grotesque, offering to those hungry for the days when Death Metal was bloodthirsty and dangerous, and is highly recommended for fans of Entombed, Unleashed, and Dismember.

“We are all very excited to be working with the new-gen but total Old-School Swedish Death Metal band CARNAL SAVAGERY! Their “Grotesque Macabre” debut album was phenomenal and they are an excellent addition to the growing number of young new talented Death Metal bands we have been adding to our roster, as well as the 1st Swedish band we’ve signed in some years. We know that our combined forces will blow all away with CARNAL SAVAGERY’s 2nd album and Moribund Debut in early 2021!” -Odin Thompson, Label Manager

Signing with the Moribund Cult soon after releasing their 2020 debut full-length “Grotesque Macabre”, CARNAL SAVAGERY is immediately readying to unleash their next outright Death Metal barrage. This October, the Swedish Brutalitarians will enter the studio to record their second album!! Official release details to follow at a later date.

FEBRUARY 19, 2020- Official Street Date, Cover Art and Track Listing for THE PROJECTIONIST "The Stench of Amalthia" CD:

Who is Amalthia Grahame… and why do people around her keep dying? Why has Nurse Evelyn become so weak? What is the story behind the shadowy Dr. Bendix? Answers to all of these questions, and more, are unveiled through the course of the 10 epic acts from THE PROJECTIONIST!



The first ever Black Metal OPERA!

Canada’s sinister theatrical Black Metal consortium known as THE PROJECTIONIST return with their highly anticipated fifth full length operetta, “The Stench of Amalthia”. Mastermind Lord Matzigkeitus, alongside his evil cohorts Parageist, Ghast, Destroyer, Malphas, as THE PROJECTIONIST present original concepts and storylines in place of the usual black metal oratory. Musically, THE PROJECTIONIST use classic heavy metal song structuring that embodies “all the hooks” & the essence of true heavy metal within a modern black / death metal context.

THE PROJECTIONIST’s full theatrical stage performances depart the confines of traditional black metal and elevate the inherent darkness to a new level of high art. Supported by a nefarious cast of characters which change through every album, forthcoming albums from THE PROJECTIONIST are to be full operettas or plays set to black metal, where characters from the complex storylines are portrayed by a different vivacious vocal style.

The bands fifth album and Moribund Records debut, “The Stench of Amalthia,” marks a new dawn for THE PROJECTIONIST- faster, harsher, and more hateful than its predecessor. TSOA is also crafted into an immersive, chilling horror experience complete with sound effects (and of course, ruthless black metal).


In this second necrotic BM opera, the story falls upon an aging, dying former Film Noire starlet, Amalthia Grahame, isolated in her palatial home. Her physician, Dr. Bendix, sends a young nurse named Evelyn to tend to Amalthia’s final days, as a live-in nurse for palliative care. When left alone with the old withering actress, gruesome and macabre events unfold to wield death, torture and Satanic forces against the poor fragile Nurse... and all who’d call upon the Mansion looking for her.

Bask in the evocative performances of Aven Haunts as Amalthia and Evelyn, Caeser Tiberius as Dr. Bendix and the unholy master of otherworldly shrieking himself, Lord Matzigkeitus. As the vile, climactic shredding of THE PROJECTIONIST oozes oubliette theatrical darkness, every lost crevice in your mind is made a terrifyingly unsafe place to hide!

Release date, track listing and official cover art are as follows:

JANUARY 23, 2020- LIVE SUFFER DIE "A Voice from Beyond Death" CD Official release date, cover art, track listing revealed!


March 20th, 2020, Moribund Records proudly offers tribute to another Cult Warrior called to the infernal flame all too soon, with the release of LIVE SUFFER DIE "A Voice from Beyond Death" CD. LIVE SUFFER DIE is Lance Gifford's final recording and last collaborative effort with Lörd Matzigkeitus (The Projectionist, The Black Sorcery). A unique and cult US / Canadian Black Metal cooperative, LIVE SUFFER DIE is riddled with grim guitar craft akin to JUDAS ISCARIOT juxtaposed against one of the most insane vocal performances since BETHLEHEM "Dictius Te Necare" or SILENCER "Death - Pierce Me"!


JANUARY 23, 2020- The Projectionist signs an infernal pact with the Moribund Cult!


If you have not yet had the pleasure to be seated within the darkened viewing rooms of The Projectionist, do so now or ETERNALLY suffer!

Early in January 2020, THE PROJECTIONIST signed a multi-album recording contract with the Moribund Cult, eager to release their 5th full-length offering, "The Stench of Amalthia"! THE PROJECTIONIST holds audiences captive through plays set to Black Metal; Shakespearean prose woven with Satanic virtues opposed to the garish jewelry of modern, sardonic Black Metal. Should King Diamond produce a non-symphonic black metal sound, THE PROJECTIONIST is exactly what one might expect to hear. Recording for "The Stench of Amalthia" is now complete and the album is being mastered on desert front-lines by DARKTHRONE’s “Old Star” producer!

Prepare yourselves for THE PROJECTIONIST's presentation of "The Stench of Amalthia"! This masterfully recorded projection is to be released this spring. Stay tuned, for more is to come from The Moribund Cult and THE PROJECTIONIST!


JANUARY 3, 2020- Official Street Date, Cover Art and Track Listing for WIND OF THE BLACK MOUNTAINS "Summoned By Shadows + Bonus" CD:

18 years after the last Wind of the Black Mountains album, Tchort rises from the grave in order to deliver a postmortem blow of True Antichrist US Black Metal to a scene gone soft and sanctimonious!

Moribund Records is honored to unleash this lost recording as a tribute to Jeff "Tchort" Elrod. "Summoned By Shadows” offers 4 remarkable tracks recorded just prior to the passing of our Satanic Brother. While Tchort may not be physically present in this realm, thou shall not mourn, for he left us with this final musical legacy to raise him from the embers.


To dispel the rampant rumors, myths and lies permeating the vast digital wastelands surrounding "Summoned By Shadows,” the Moribund Cult can state with certainty that every track on this release features the one and only, Tchort. Recovered from studio DAT tapes provided to long-time WOTBM drummer Nybras, "Summoned By Shadows” was completed with help from prior Masochist bassist (and Summon leader), Xaphan. The TRUE will recognize this as Tchort’s call from beyond the grave- the rest will eternally suffer!!

In addition to the physical CD with dozens of photos and written tributes to Tchort, Moribund Records is to issue a special, digital only deluxe version of "Summoned By Shadows” with additional and alternate bonus tracks !! A corresponding re-issue of the classic “Sing Thou Unholy Servants” CD is also available for pre-order at the Moribund Cult Armory. Limited edition vinyl "Summoned...", as well as "Sing..." and "Black Sun Shall Rise" re-issues, will be available soon though a recent pact with Funeral Industries. Take up thy chalice and drink the dark wine in celebration of the Cult Black Metal Warrior, Jeff "Tchort" Elrod!!

January 26, 2019- Moribund Welcomes OLTRETOMBA to the Cult!


Italy's Retrogarde Black Metal duo, OLTRETOMBA, recently signed with Moribund Records, roaring and ready to release their 2nd full-length album, "THE HORROR - Figure del Terrore". Old-school in sound & style, raw and aggressive, even outright rocking (did someone say more cowbell?), you are doing yourself a terrible disservice if you're not familiar with OLTRETOMBA's phenomenal offerings!

OLTRETOMBA was initialized by the dark obsessions and flickering horrors of Lucas Demon. "Retrogarde is not just the musical style, but what we call attitude; it is a much wider way to create expressively," L.D. informs the Moribund Cult. "As I already play in a black-death metal band (ATHANOR) for many years, I didn't have interest to clone it. The most important thing for OLTRETOMBA is to make a song which sounds violent and creepy," remarks L.D. "The bands' goal is not strictly geared at a musical style but at how it sounds in a more general way, to represent music born to be extreme, out of trends, not for fashion." With no bells (outside of percussion), no whistles (besides those of the Nameless occultist), with nothing 'plastic' or pre-molded, OLTRETOMBA claim their well-secured seat at the Pentagonal Table of the Moribund Cult.

Also notable, is that OLTRETOMBA record the fashioned-old way- without copy/paste, drum triggers, or Direct Injection Units, making this pair absolutely unique in a swamp full of modern sounds and aesthetics! Composed in different artistic periods with many points of inspiration, OLTRETOMBA's "THE HORROR - Figure del Terrore" is only the most recent culmination of 2 seasoned musicians' prowess under 1 artistic visionary. "THE HORROR - Figure del Terrore" will reach the masses in physical form this spring, courtesy of Moribund Records.



January 12, 2019- World renowned guitar Virtuoso and Legend, Toby Knapp turns loose a brand new Neoclassical Shred Heavy Metal album, “Blizzard Archer”!


In 2018, Toby Knapp signed with Moribund Rockers! for his newest solo recording and immediately revealed his 7th full-length album, “Blizzard Archer”! In 2019, “Blizzard Archer" will cast Knapp's solo-guitar sorcery upon the world to invigorate instrumental rock & metal, and revive the genres for the 21st Century!

Eager to share the splendor of his talent, Moribund asked Toby about his intentions with this new release; "On "Blizzard Archer" my main focus was to create a vintage sounding guitar album where the guitars sound like guitars. I wanted melodic instrumental songs that were more than a display of over the top "tough guy" brutality, because I introduced and mastered that sound decades ago on Shrapnel Records."

The result is a carefully crafted soundscape that seems it could have been dreamed up by Malmsteen or Blackmoore, but only in their most feverish strokes of triumph. Toby Knapp has a style all his own, filled with melodies that hearken to moments of glory and reflection, steeped in ancient themes of magic, darkness and light.

02.08.19 Street Date

TRACK LISTING:
1. All Hands Planted
2. Midnight in Guyana
3. 13 Astral Gateways
4. Cold Warrior
5. The Eye of Providence
6. Bear 141
7. Blizzard Archer
8. To the Pavilion

In closing his comment, Toby Knapp states, "this album is for those who love 80's era guitar and album production. The musical inspiration was everyone from George Lynch to Yngwie Malmsteen to Loudness's Akira Takasaki. That is the sound I was shooting for, a time capsule." He has successfully done so!

Knapp has recorded albums with Onward, Waxen, Where Evil Follows, Necrytis, Affliktor & Darken, is a full time guitar teacher, as well as session studio and live musician for many world class national artists including Attila Csihar (Mayhem), Godless Rising, Fetid Zombie, Abhor & more! Knapp is one of the most productive and prolific career musicians in rock and heavy metal and does NOT seem to be slowing down any time soon! Moribund Rockers! official street date for this scintillating record of guitar wizardry is set for February 8th, 2019.

September 28, 2018- Introducing Moribund Rockers!


Introducing Moribund Rockers!, a hard rock music imprint from the Moribund Family!

Moribund Records, established by Odin Thompson in 1993, announces the formation of Moribund Rockers!, a new Rock Music imprint. With his tenured, 32 years of music industry experience, and an eclectic taste in music, Odin has likely created the hottest new label in USA!

Moribund Rockers! recording artists are sure to appeal to Classic Rock, Indie-rock, and True Metal fans alike! As waves of hard rock and metal have rolled in since the 1980's, few found left in the 'froth of the waves' have been worthy in the eyes of Odin, a long time Heavy Metal Rocker. Moribund Rockers! is a venture of the Moribund Family to catch those bands rolling in fast and loud enough to break free of the waves!

“Moribund has been planning to start a rock label for years, but have never been able to find the right bands to launch the new imprint until now! After years of searching, with both FerreTT and Toby Knapp, we have found the perfect Rock-n-Roller’s to seriously bring “The Rock” !" - Odin "The Old Goat" Thomspon

The nostalgia of the still world-popular 1980's era Hard Rock and Heavy Metal is unrelenting, reviving a once thought lost hunger in an "Old Goat", now poised to take back rock'n'roll for the SAKE of rock'n'roll! Moribund Rockers! looks forward to providing you the very best in Rock 'n Roll!

Moribund Rockers! first offerings will be FERRETT "In Through the Out Door" CD and LP, in stores November 30th. Cover art and Track Listing to be revealed shortly!

From New York, FerreTT are are the first to sign with Moribund Rockers!, kicking out quality, rockin' 80's style metal, with all the party of the Sunset Strip! Catch FERRETT live at

September 6, 2018- Moribund Welcomes P.I.G. Records to the Cult !


Portnow Intertainment Group, Inc. Signs Exclusive Physical & Digital World-Wide Distribution deal with MDN / Moribund Records!

Two Pacific Northwest Extreme Music Label Legends forge an alliance to promote the few and brave remaining outlets that stand for freedom in artistic and individual expression. Both The Moribund Cult and P.I.G. Records are comprised of many individuals and artists with varying forms of "extreme" thought, which both label proprietors encourage. P.I.G.and Moribund Records are the pinnacle of the Washington State "underground's" contribution to extreme musical indulgences!

“We are beyond ecstatic to be working with the legendary P.I.G. Records as part of the Moribund Family and to distribute their classic and new releases to Heavy Music Maniacs! I’ve been a huge fan of these labels since I was a Radio DJ in the 1980’s, when they released classics like COVEN, THE MENTORS, THE ACCUSED and so many more influential metal and hard-core bands!” -Odin “The Old Goat” Thompson

Moribund champions those who truly and ideally maintain a cause and will do so against all odds and obstacles. Despite what naysayers wish to propagate, when you remove the sugar coating, Extreme Music is still about ONE thing- Achieving the true freedom of individuality.

"I'm very excited to have signed this deal with the Devil (Moribund Cult). Their distribution avenues are tremendous and they have the disciplined staff and organization to take P.I.G. to infinity and beyond. Moribund Cult offers P.I.G. everything that the label currently lacks and more without restricting our wide musical genres, musical experiments, freedom of speech, artistic freedom and drug use. The current repertoire of Artists is pumped to be working with Moribund, as is my volunteer staff and I. Our only concern is that we'll get caught up in a haze of DOOM and Blackness and bizarre yet tantalizing Satanic Rituals, but then again, that's entirely why I inked in this deal in first place." - David Ulysses Portnow

P.I.G. has been credited for commercially releasing more Washington State musicians than any other label, such as ZEKE, POTBELLY, THE DEHUMANIZERS, and THE ACCUSED. P.I.G. is NOT a 'punk rock' label- they release all styles of music and product, including TRUE rock 'n' roll, spoken word, cross-over metal, psychobilly and so much more! Under the imprints Subcore and Ever Rat Records, P.I.G. President, David Portnow, has released tons of classics from extreme musicians such as GG ALLIN, THE VOODOOS, STATE OF CONFUSION, MDC, DI, and RAW POWER!

The future can only prove this coalition to be beneficial in the ongoing struggle for TRUE freedom in musical and artistic expression! As both labels are anxious to begin working together, the world can expect the first MDN/Moribund Cult distributed P.I.G. Records title in little to no time!

VARDAN exquisitely executes his unique vision as Italy’s most prolific artist with "Unholy Lightless Summer", his staggering 31st full-length album!

VARDAN breaks free of the confines set by Conventional Black Metal with this ground-breaking accomplishment, “Unholy Lightless Summer”. His most ambitious and ambient album to date, “Unholy Lightless Summer” is more on par with esoteric composers such as Ennio Morricone & Bernard Herrmann or contemporary Dark-wave masters like Raison D 'Etre, Ordo Equilibrio, Current 93 & the Moon Lay Hidden…

Overflowing with acoustic-electric guitars, vocal choirs, ethereal canting and keyboards passages, “Unholy Lightless Summer” is sure to appeal to an audience well beyond VARDAN's already substantial Metal fan base.

The Moribund Cult is honored to present this final vocal performance by Marco De Rosa.

Anti-theistic lyrics are taken straight from the old testament to defy our modern era! The harmonious use of modern and classical instruments is bolstered only by vigilant song writing, making PROFEZIA an excellent study in the ways of Cult Italian Black Metal.

February 15, 2018- Moribund Cult News: Profezia from Italy.




With a heavy (blackened) heart, Kvasir of Italy's Profezia informs all Moribund Cultists of the terrible loss which hit their metal community, late 2017.

Last November, Marco De Rosa, singer for Profezia (also well known for his projects The True Endless, Skoll, Opera IX, et al), passed away after a long-term struggle with terminal illness. Italy, and more likely the world over, has lost a true warrior- a pillar of the underground metal scene. Marco was, and will forever be, a True Black Metal Scene Legend. Moribund Records will release his last recording with Profezia this spring.

Rest in peace and rise in glory. 1,000 Swords Held High in Salute from The Moribund Cult!

PROVOCATOR, the product of mastermind Hellscream, is set to unleash “Satan, Chaos, Blood and Terror”. This torrent of savagery is truly diabolical Black Metal! Mandatory for fans of Archgoat, Hellhammer, Beherit, Von, Sarcofago, and Bleeding Fist.

The band has expanded with the addition of vocalist Lord Astaroth, from the rising Italian Black Metal act KURGAALL. The predominantly guttural, in your face vocals by Lord Astaroth are bolstered by raging screams, howls, grunts and groans; accented by Hellscream’s dark and dingy guitar tone and 80’s style drums.

From slow dirges, through fast raging tracks, to anthemic classics, PROVOCATOR strikes hard and heavy with Black Death Metal blasphemies!

October 5, 2017- MORIBUND RECORDS presents the release of AYAT’s long-awaited “Carry On, Carrion”!!!

AYAT

MORIBUND RECORDS confirms November 24th, 2017 as the release date for AYAT's long-awaited “Carry On, Carrion”. AYAT's 2008 full-length album was deemed by critics as either "genius" or "garbage”. Vocalist and Musical terrorist Filthy Fuck proclaimed, Carry On, Carrion would be “… longer, more insane, more vicious…”. Listeners are finally delivered the uncompromising taste of hell-on-earth which fans have come to expect. Overflowing with memorable head banging moments, this album is a catchy arsenal of nuclear-charged black metal, goat-grinding punk and pure old-school rock & roll! Carry On, Carrion dives deeper into the feverish horrors of the sands which bore, and will now reclaim AYAT.

With this, their final album, AYAT saunters into the sunset, blood-soaked and frothing mad, a trail of devastation in their wake. “So I walked. And the 67 viral winds of the East whistled in my hollow bones, particles of disease sticking on the edges. And William died on me too. A fever runs through my blood like rivers to the sea. Six years of dormant hatred lay in pieces behind me and thousands of dead motherfuckers are walking around the thousand times dead fucking mother-city. And the dead exceed the living and will look after them in their own special way. And there was but one phrase on my tongue like a snake rolled on a shaft: Carry on, carrion... Carry on...” - AYAT Track-listing and links are as follows:

October 5, 2015- COLD NORTHERN VENGEANCE premiere new track at NoCleanSinging.com!!!

Cold Northern Vengeance

Today, pagan Viking metal berserkers Cold Northern Vengeance premiere the new track "Pierced by the Tree" at heavily trafficked web-portal NoCleanSinging.com. The track hails from the band's long-awaited second album, Maelstrom, set for international release on October 30th via Moribund Records. With seemingly effortless ease, Cold Northern Vengeance create kaleidoscopic landscapes of majesty and melancholy, storm and shelter. The vision of chieftain Heathen, Maelstrom picks up where 2008's cult classic Domination and Servitude left off: rolling, roiling layers of mystifying, hypnotizing tones, all harnessed in a revelatory and Odinistic manner. But here, Cold Northern Vengeance digs deeper into their pagan roots, plumbing the dark, alluring depths for a resonance rarely found in American metal. Like a communique sent from another, far-distant time, Maelstrom verily becomes its title and transports the listener away from reality and into a dream-like Valhalla, both splendorous and sinister. Northern sonic craftsmanship that nods to what Viking metal art should be - submit to the first storm of Cold Northern Vengeance's Maelstrom exclusively HERE, courtesy of NoCleanSinging.com. Cover and tracklistg are as follows:

August 24, 2015- COLD NORTHERN VENGEANCE sets release date for new MORIBUND album!!!

Cold Northern Vengeance

Today, Moribund Records sets October 30th as the international release date for Cold Northern Vengeance's long-awaited second album, Maelstrom. Pagan/Viking metal berserkers, Cold Northern Vengeance create kaleidoscopic landscapes of majesty and melancholy, storm and shelter. The vision of chieftain Heathen, Maelstrom picks up where 2008's cult classic Domination and Servitude left off: rolling, roiling layers of mystifying, hypnotizing tones, all harnessed in a revelatory and Odinistic manner. But here, Cold Northern Vengeance digs deeper into their pagan roots, plumbing the dark, alluring depths for a resonance rarely found in American metal. Like a communique sent from another, far-distant time, Maelstrom verily becomes its title and transports the listener away from reality and into a dream-like Valhalla, both splendorous and sinister. Northern sonic craftsmanship that nods to what Viking metal art should be - submit to Cold Northern Vengeance's Maelstrom! Cover and tracklistg are as follows:

August 5, 2015- COLD NORTHERN VENGEANCE sign with MORIBUND RECORDS, prepare label debut!!!

Cold Northern Vengeance

Today, Moribund Records announces the signing of American black metal cult Cold Northern Vengeance. Cold Northern Vengeance started its quest for gnosis in the coldness of New Hampshire anno 2002. Patiently perfecting its craft, the band released a series of demos and splits throughout the first decade of the new millennium. This all culminated in the stirring debut album Domination and Servitude, released in 2008 to critical acclaim by Bindrune Recordings. Throughout the course of time, founding vocalist/guitarist Heathen has worked with many artists, friends, fiends, enemies, psychopaths, and other assorted characters to solidify a uniquely steel-clad identity. And now, Cold Northern Vengeance is finalizing its second album (and debut for Moribund), Maelstrom. The saga has been forged in blood, sweat, tears and too many beers: soon, Moribund Records will confirm the release date of Maelstrom, as well as its cover and tracklisting.

"After 13 years of forging the musick of Cold Northern Vengeance, I am proud to have the legendary and prolific Moribund Records as the label to bring you what is, without a shadow of a doubt, my strongest material in terms of songwriting, lyrics, and vision!" states Heathen.

Moon

At long last, Australia's mysterious Moon returns with a new album for Moribund Records, the aptly titled Render of the Veils, set for international release on September 18th. Following the mesmerizing mindfuck of 2011's Caduceus Chalice - released to critical acclaim by Moribund - the one-man Moon mixes an even more bewitching brew here with Render of the Veils.

With 11 tracks in 77 soul-draining minutes, this is Moon at its boldest and most definitely BEYOND: tear open the cosmos and witness Render of the Veils... Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

June 23, 2015- DODSFERD complete new MORIBUND album, reveal cover and tracklisting!!!

Greek black 'n' roll machine Dodsferd have just completed recordings for their tenth full-length to date, Wastes of Life. The album will be released later this year by longtime label Moribund Records, and follows the band's critically acclaimed 2013 album The Parasitic Survival of the Human Race. Mixing and mastering of Dodsferd's Wastes of Life will soon be started at the same studio where it was recorded, at D Studio in Athens, Greece, by Michael Karpathiou.

Founding Dodsferd vocalist/guitarist Wrath reports the following: "My new album is one of my most soul-destroying albums. It has nothing to do with religious trends and worships of all kind. It’s an ode to the fall of man and the end of this world. I would like to thank and pay my respect to Michael Karpathiou (acoustic guitars, lead guitars, solos, and extra bass lines) and Chris Tzortzis (contrabass, cello, and violin) for their contributions, with their excellent musical skills, on my new album. They don’t have any relation with the black metal scene, in order to help my band gain any popularity with their contribution. Dodsferd need no one to do that. I don’t follow any kind of trends, and I hate the things that the masses follow and tend to do."

The cover art, created by S.D. from Vision Black and Razorbleed Productions, and tracklisting are as follows:

Tracklisting for Dodsferd's Wastes of Life

Buttressed by a bevy of hilarious/hellish samples, Nekro Drunkz blast forth and bulldoze all across Absolute Filth, indulging their basest sensibilities while busting a load all over a memorability that's firmly within the sleaze-rocking realm of The Mentors and Gut. And with a pulverizing production that fondly reminds of Impetigo, Nekro Drunkz have delivered in Absolute Filth a new classic of exactly that: ABSOLUTE FILTH! Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

NekroDrunks_Logo1

Formed in 2007 in the barren wastelands of the Oregon Coast, Nekro Drunkz have been and WILL always be a two-piece band consisting of Crystal Seth (666 Tampon Razor Strings & Alcohol Throwup vocals) and Disgustor (Megaton Liquor Drum Hammers & Putrid Menstrual Regurgitation screams). A band with a true fetish for all things perverse and grotesque, Nekro Drunkz have rocked and shocked audiences throughout the American West Coast and East Coast, and will soon leave their skid-marks over the all-American lands of Texas at the Destroying Texas festival. Live shows consist of extreme verbal harassment, used feminine hygiene products being tossed about, and intense shredding death metal grind. Over the years, the band has released several lethal splits with Grim Raper, Pus, Larry David, Exogorth, and Deboned. 2014 saw the release of the band's first full-length album, Tyrants of Toilet Music, on Headsplit Records - a title that the band has earned through rigorous contamination of all bathrooms and eardrums that their music penetrates! There is no stopping the Nekro Drunkz: Two-Piece Terror Metal reigns supreme till the death!

A statement from the band reads: "The Nekro Drunkz, Purveyors of Toilet Metal Music, are extremely proud to sign to the Moribund Records roster! A label that features many of our personal influences like The Meatshits, Whore, Fornicator, Infester, and a long list of some our personal favorite drinking tunes - Thy Infernal, Winter Of Apokalypse, Drawn and Quartered, Hacavitz, Masochist, NME, and more! A label that shows no compromise for any false-metal trendy wimp shit! A label that doesn't take shit from anyone and relentlessly bulldozes onward, just as the Nekro Drunkz will do until their livers give out! The new album, Absolute Filth, is just fucking that - 33 songs of sleaze metal, featuring a slough of notable psychopath guest vocalists and a grinding cover of the Mentors' 'Sandwich Of Love.' This new Nekro Drunkz/Moribund Records release will have you shitting blood and bashing your head through your walls in no time at all."

June 3, 2015- UNHUMAN DISEASE sign with MORIBUND RECORDS, prepare first album for the label

Unhuman Disease

Today, Moribund Records is proud to announce the signing of American black metal cult Unhuman Disease. As longtime fans of the Oklahoma natives, particularly the Dalla Benedizione del Diavolo and Glorification of Satanas full-lengths, Moribund feels that Unhuman Disease is a perfect fit for the label and its commitment to pure, uncompromising black metal. Having released now-legendary records by Judas Iscariot, Horna, and Sargeist, Moribund Records is prepared to unleash Unhuman Disease on an unsuspecting populace, with the first evil fruit being the band's seventh full-length, entitled De Templi Autem Veteris Serpentis and set to be recorded soon. Unhuman Disease's brand of staunchly Satanic black metal is not unlike the aforementioned paradigm-shaping bands, but with a filth 'n' fury all their own, and Moribund couldn't be more devilishly pleased to have the band among its elite roster.

Unhuman Disease was manifested under the Black Moon of 2001 by Nocturnus Dominus on all instruments, vocals, and lyrics, with the goal of the band to release actual Satanic black metal. No gimmicks, no compromise - just traditional Satanist black metal that believes in the Lord. The first expression of Satanic chaos, the Awakening of the Horned Beast demo was recorded in 2001 and limited to 20 copies. In the winter of 2003, the second expression of Satanic chaos became the As My Blood Spills Upon Thy Altar demo, which was limited to 50 copies. With a brief silence in 2006, the third expression of Satanic chaos and first full-length desecration, Evil Reigns Supreme, was released on Unholy Vision Records and limited to 100 copies. With yet another brief silence in 2008, the fourth expression of Satanic chaos and the second full-length desecration, Perpetuus agonia, was unleashed upon this pathetic earth by Unholy Vision Records. Limited to 666 copies, a majority of them were ruined while in storage due to leaking on the roof.

During the autumn of 2009, Unhuman Disease made a pact written in blood with Black Hate Productions of Germany, and the fifth expression of Satanic chaos and third full-length desecration, Black Creations of Satan, was released in an edition of 1000 copies. That same year in December, the sixth expression of Satanic chaos and fourth full-length desecration, Into Satan’s Kingdom, was also released in an edition of 1000 copies. In 2011, a pact is written in blood with Swiss brothers Freitod, and the seventh expression of Satanic chaos, the To the Eternal Kingdom of Darkness/The Serpent’s Eyes split 7" EP, was released on Swiss label BergStolz. In 2012, the eighth expression of Satanic chaos and fifth full-length desecration, Dalla Benedizione del Diavolo, was released on Black Hate Productions and limited to 1000 copies, with guest vocals on the track “Ruins of Bone and Ash" by brother Lugubrum Acerbus of Mordskog.

The year 2013 marked 13 years of unending Satanic black metal for Unhuman Disease, and the ninth expression of Satanic chaos and sixth full-length desecration, Glorification of Satanas, was released by Embrace My Funeral Records of Mexico. Limited to 500 copies, this album consists of a recording session from 2008. In early 2014, a pact was written in blood with Immortal Frost Productions for the release of the split album Those Who Preach Perdition with the German band Sarkrista. Now, in 2015, a pact of Satanic alliance has been written in blood and wrapped in human flesh with the Moribund Records cult. The tenth expression of Satanic chaos and seventh full-length, De Templi Autem Veteris Serpentis, is in the recording process and will be released by Moribund before year's end. The label will release two further albums in the future: the never-ending plague known as Unhuman Disease continues…

May 12, 2015- PROFEZIA to reissue rare debut album via MORIBUND!!!

Rare and out of print for many years now, Profezia's Black Misanthropic Elite - Moon Anthem debut is finally back in print via Moribund Records, set for international release on July 24th as a limited-edition A5 digibook. Originally released in 2008, Black Misanthropic Elite - Moon Anthem introduced this Italian black metal cult to the international scene, and soon was spoken of with quiet reverence. Back then, the duo of Kvasir and Vidharr created an extremely cold, resolutely purist form of black metal that breathed the same icy fire that the ancient gods of the early '90s did. And although Profezia's lust for pushing boundaries would blossom years later on the critically acclaimed Moribund album Oracolo Suicida, the conviction displayed - not to mention the utter hypnosis - across Black Misanthropic Elite would serve as an important foundation for one of Italian BM's very best bands. Tracks 1-6 comprise the Black Misanthropic Elite portion of the album, while track 7 and 8 comprise Moon Anthem, altogether making for stirring spelunking through medieval depths. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

Tracklisting for Profezia's Black Misanthropic Elite - Moon Anthem

1. Overture Psalm
2. Poem for the Black Misanthropic Elite pt.1
3. Under a pale veil of unconsciousness reckless
4. Interlude
5. Hatred
6. Poem for the Black Misanthropic Elite pt.2
7. Bewitched
8. Hungering

With the ease of veterans, Infernus weave together the night-sky melodicism of classic Dissection and the filthy forward propulsion of ancient blackthrash ala classic Destroyer 666. Full of blistering classics, each song is a finely honed force of immediate memorability and eternal headbangability that never gives a break from the infernal mayhem. From bloody beginning to fiery end, Infernus' Grinding Christian Flesh does exactly what its title promises! Hear the entire evidence for yourself exclusively HERE, courtesy of TheLairOfFilth.com.

April 06, 2015- Members of WORMREICH involved in tour van crash - two killed, one in critical condition

Wormreich

It is with heavy hearts that the staff of Moribund Records confirms that two members of Moribund recording artists Wormreich have been killed in a van crash early this morning while on tour, and one member remains in critical condition. Wormreich were in the midst of a North American tour with comrades Kult ov Azazel and Khaotika, driving southbound along I-85 in northeast Georgia when the driver of the 15-passenger van apparently fell asleep and the van veered off the highway, striking a tree on the passenger side. In the wreck, Wormreich guitarist Ian Andrew McKinney (AKA Nazgul Vathran) and bassist Paul Truesdell were killed, while drummer Christopher P. Pezzano (AKA Profana) was seriously injured and remains in critical condition, requiring surgery.

A Facebook statement from Wormreich founder/vocalist/guitarist Christopher Earl Pyle (AKA Vulk) reads: "This morning I lost my brother and best friend, along with two awesome people that I was lucky to have even known for a short while. Two of my other brothers remain in critical condition. Somehow I was spared with only superficial wounds and a dislocated shoulder. This is not the end of Wormreich. It's always been my vision, but more importantly, it is for those whom I have lost today that it MUST continue. Please send healing energy to the members of Wormreich, Khaotika, and their families. Ave."

Wormreich released Wormcult Revelations last year on Moribund Records. The entire staff of Moribund sends their deepest and most sincere condolences to the families of Wormreich as well as those of Kult ov Azazel and Khaotika.

February 18, 2015- WENDE set release date for MORIBUND reissue of debut album!!!

Wende 2015

Moribund Records is proud to unveil one of black metal's best-kept secrets: Wende and its debut album, Vorspiel einer Philosophie Der Zukunft, set for release on April 14th. Hailing from rural and deeply wooded Washington State, Wende is the sole vision of one Zamiel, and to date, his two albums have been self-released in super-limited quantities. Much like his The Third and the Noble masterpiece released earlier this year by Moribund, this is simply some of the best Burzumic black metal since...well, Burzum. Strong words, perhaps, but the proof is there across these six tracks: melancholic, emotive, and truly isolationist, Wende's Vorspiel einer Philosophie Der Zukunft will soundly restore lost wisdom and offer many journeys to the stars. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

Wende.Vorspiel Einer Philosophie der Zukunft

Tracklisting for Wende's Vorspiel einer Philosophie Der Zukunft
1. ...Of War or 'Der Ritter'
2. ...Of Death or 'Verklarung'
3. ...Of Truth or 'Nichts und Schönheit'
4. ...Of Solitude and the Self or 'Dasein'
5. ...Of Time or 'der Ring Des Kosmos'
6. ...Of Nature or 'Hercynian'

A statement from Wende mastermind Zamiel reads: "Vorspiel einer Philosophie der Zukunft, or 'prelude to the philosophy of the future,' is designed to be a musical setting of six core concepts of philosophy - War, Death, Truth, the Self, Time, and Nature. The lyrics are my musings on these subjects and what I feel is a healthy philosophy, formed into a narrative. Musically, the album consists of three 'metal' tracks and three 'ambient' tracks, with recurring rhythmic and melodic motifs throughout. I tried to create 'open' and 'spacious' chords by playing fifths, fourths' and eighths stacked on top of each other. The entire experience is designed to encourage further thought in the listener."

February 10, 2015- LUCIFERIAN RITES set release date for MORIBUND debut!!!

Luciferian Rites

Always on the hunt for the best in the black metal underground, Moribund Records is proud to present Luciferian Rites' debut for the label, When the Light Dies, set for release on May 12th. An otherwise-undiscovered gem in the darkest BM underground, Luciferian Rites hail from Mexico and have one previous full-length (Evangelion of the Black Misanthropy) to their name. Now, with When the Light Dies, the quartet are prepared to take their freezing-cold attack to wider audiences. Despite their geography, Luciferian Rites here extract the most potent elements of classic Finnish and Polish black metal, distilling each chilling essence into a sorcerous spell that's as authentic as it comes. And yet the band back up their blasphemous ruminations with an ever-insistent pulse and alternately melancholic/majestic riffing that could've come straight from 1995. Bolstered by a production that balances rawness and well-roundedness, When the Light Dies will surely make a rightful name for Luciferian Rites. Be prepared for When the Light Dies! Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

LUCIFERIANRITES.When the Light Dies

Tracklisting for Luciferian Rites' When the Light Dies 1. Eternal Misanthropy of the Black Cosmos
2. Incinerated Cross
3. Infernal Manifestation
4. When the Light Dies
5. Rotten Creed
6. Conviction of Nocturnal Raven
7. Garden of Spirits
8. A Dreadful Chant for Self-Destruction
9. All Your Lies (Diabolical Memories)
10. Ghost in the Shadows

Luciferian Rites was born in late 2006 comprised of three members, doing live performances only and having a self-recorded demo until 2011. The band released their first full-length, Evangelion of the Black Misanthropy, in 2011 through Mexican label Azermedoth Records. At the end of 2012, Luciferian Rites decided to record a second album, which took time to complete due to issues in the band, but in the end, they got the sound they aimed for. In early 2014, drummer AntiChrist leaves the band due to personal reasons but receiving his credits for the album. Luciferian Rites then contacted Moribund Records label owner Odin Thompson in the middle of 2014, and by the end of the same year, an agreement was made to release When the Light Dies.

When the Light Dies lineup:
Count Shadows - vocals
Abomination - guitars
AntiChrist - drums

A statement from the band reads: "With this second album, Luciferian Rites is based and inspired mainly by those feelings and situations that get us spiritually and physically close to the pessimistic side of life and the human mind. With lyrics about misanthropy, death, depression, and the occult, this production offers a very orthodox approach to black metal. The album reflects the progress of the band, with a more mature composition and a sound that’s paving the way to make a name for ourselves. With When the Light Dies, we are aiming to get to as many people around the world as possible and to get a place in the black metal netherworld. It is, for us, an honor to be working with Moribund Records, which has supported a lot of bands that have been our influences from one way or another to write our music. It also a pleasure being part of the roster of this great label. This deal gives our new material great expectations, and it also a big boost to the band’s career. We are very proud of this album, and we hope you enjoy it, as well."

Chronologically the 23rd album in the one-man band's vast discography, Vardan's latest The Night, The Loneliness sees the selfsame mainman master the art of melancholy. Down-tempo and downtrodden, forlorn and fatalistic, The Night, The Loneliness pulses its way into the soul - SLOWLY - twisting and turning the knife with bittersweetness and even a bit of beauty, its night-time mysticism entrancing the listener with cyclic shards of decayed melody and otherworldly synths. There's no better time than now to jump on the Vardan bandwagon: enter The Night, The Loneliness! Jump on it exclusively HERE - and read some rare words from the man himself - courtesy of Decibel, North America's only monthly metal magazine. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

January 23, 2015- WHERE EVIL FOLLOWS set release date for MORIBUND debut, features Toby Knapp (Onward, WAXEN)!!!

Where Evil Follows

Where Evil Follows

Today, Moribund Records announces March 31st as the release date for Where Evil Follows' highly anticipated debut album, Portable Darkness. Where Evil Follows is the latest diabolical creation of underground legend/guitar genius Toby Knapp (Onward, Waxen). In contrast to Knapp’s latest Waxen album, which indulges his blackest metal tendencies, Where Evil Follows returns the six-string sorcerer to his '80s speed metal roots. However, Portable Darkness is far more than some trendy "retro" retread, as Knapp and vocalist/bassist Dean Sternberg (Ashes of Ares, ex-Into Eternity) take these winding-yet-headbanging anthems down far darker and more potently evil paths, turbo-charged with no small amount of power metal. In many ways, the album is the sinister counterpart to Onward, Knapp's most celebrated band. Set on those paths and see Where Evil Follows... Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

WHERE EVIL FOLLOWS Portable Darkness ALBUM

Tracklisting for Where Evil Follows' Portable Darkness
1. Reborn (4:09)
2. They Came For Us (4:36)
3. Symbiotic (3:24)
4. Lifting The Veil (4:44)
5. A World Away (3:45)
6. Oppressive Grey (5:08)
7. Disturbing The Priest (4:59)
8. Portable Darkness (4:03)

Where Evil Follows' debut album, Portable Darkness features the incredible talents of multi-instrumentalist Dean Sternberg. Dean handles soaring yet aggressive vocals and brings his bass-playing talents to the band. Dean is currently the touring bassist and back-up vocalist for ex-Iced Earth singer Matt Barlow's new band, Ashes of Ares. Earlier, Dean was chosen for touring vocalist position in Into Eternity and toured the globe extensively. Guitarist Toby Knapp is the musical mastermind of Where Evil Follows, taking his diabolical visions back into the realm of dark and furious heavy metal with a hefty nod towards '80s speed metal. Knapp's underground fanbase have enjoyed his tenures with Moribund Records recording artists Waxen, Godless Rising, and as a solo album instrumentalist starting with Shrapnel Records two decades ago, but perhaps it's the Onward fans that await this album most, as Knapp returns to what he arguably does best: straight-up heavy metal with virtuostic guitar passages combined with an intelligently soaring and melodic vocalist to bring his music to full fruition.

In 2012, the original vocalist of Knapp's long broken-up band Onward, Michael Grant, tragically passed away too soon. Knapp announced to the press that he would never again operate in a traditional metal context under the name Onward, leaving the band's legacy intact. But as with Heaven and Hell being the other "Black Sabbath" and Masters of Metal being the other "Agent Steel," Where Evil Follows picks up where Onward left off musically. If ever there was a continuation of the Onward story, Where Evil Follows is it, the name being taken from an Onward song Knapp requested the late Grant to write and which Knapp also contributed lyrics to. The first initial hearings of Where Evil FollowsPortable Darkness debut stirred the metallic souls of the Moribund Cult right after the label released Knapp's black metal project, Waxen's Agios Holokauston. In addition to finding a home with Moribund Records, Where Evil Follows' unrelenting old-school heavy metal approach brought in Germany's Pure Steel Records shortly after they released Onward's Century Media catalog on vinyl, creating a first-of-its-kind merger between the elite darkness of Moribund Records and the power metal purity of Pure Steel Records, who will be releasing the album on vinyl.



January 13, 2015- ABHOR set release date for new MORIBUND album!!!

abhor2015

At long last, Italian black metal institution Abhor unleash their long-awaited sixth album,Ritualia Stramonium, set for release on March 31st via Moribund Records. Four years since their last Moribund album, the critically acclaimed Ab Luna Lucenti, Ab Noctua Protecti, Abhor here drive deeper into the ancient mysticism of classic black metal. Never one for trends, the trio turn Ritualia Stramonium into a ritualistic ride through cobwebbed corridors, skeletal forests, and melancholic castle towers. With medieval organ at the fore,Ritualia Stramonium isn't so much a "retro" black metal record that harks back to the mid '90s as it is something truly and authentically grounded in that era - because Abhor have been practicing the black arts since 1995. Death to modernism, as the old ways take over once again...heed the call of Abhor's Ritualia Stramonium! Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

DEAD.ABHOR.Ritualia Stramonium

Tracklisting for Abhor's "Ritualia Stramonium"
1) Between Flames and Moon
2) Diabolus est qui id invocat
3) De exorcismis et supplicantionibus quibusdam
4) I...the Witch
5) Soul's Poison
6) Circle of Stones
7) The Chant of the Owl
8) Wine of Sabbath
9) Requiem for Errans Infernorum


A statement from the band reads: "Ritualia Stramonium is an esoteric opera, studied and conceived for the love of the horned one, summoning and epitomizing the uttermost priciples of aristocratic witchcraft, according to the highest law of the temple of the Vinum Sabbati, the archpriest of the old serpent, the cardinal of the great fiery red dragon and the congregation of the fullmoon... Praise our Lord and see you in Hell." The album is dedicated to the memory of Errans Infernorum, who passed away March 20th, 2014. "The insanity has become consciousness. Firmly convinced in his commitments."

And to celebrate their 20th anniversary as a band, Abhor have now started a Bandcamp page, where listeners can stream every record the band have released. It can be found HERE.

December 15, 2014- HRIZG unveils new lineup, begins work on next MORIBUND album!!!

Hrizg 2015

Hrizg returns with fresh news. After 10 years alone, Erun Dagoth (AKA Hrizg until now) has summoned three wandering souls to the discipline: Enserune (Enserune, Neverendinghate, ex-Lucifuego) on bass guitar, Kaornekan (ex-Bittencross, ex-Fatal Portrait) on guitar, and Varkhen (ex-Bittencross, ex-Forestdome, ex-Fatal Portrait) on drums.

I think the music and essence will go to the next level."

Hrizg are working on new material in their rehearsal place for their next Moribund release, but they're also preparing some old songs for upcoming live shows. Booking is encouraged by writing here: management@morbidshrineproductions.com

November 6, 2014- SATAN'S HOST new album details!!!

At long last, the wait is over: Satan's Host deliver their masterwork with "Pre-dating god" Parts 1 & 2! Both albums will be released simultaneously by Moribund Records on January 19th, 2015 in Europe/UK and January 20th, 2015 in North America. Striking while the iron's hot after 2013's critically acclaimed "Virgin Sails", the two-disc "Pre-dating god" sees Satan's Host going from strength to strength, creating epic 'n' dynamic HEAVY METAL anthems that immediately stick in the brain. With a storied history that spans five decades, Patrick Evil's devilish warriors here bring together their two distinct periods - the traditional/true metal of their early work, and the blasting black metal of their middle period - and tastefully modernize it into a sound that is totally all their own. With Harry "The Tyrant" Conklin delivering his best vocal performance ever, right now, no one's able to touch Satan's Host for sheer mastery and uniqueness: Pre-dating god Parts 1 & 2 will soon be a metal classic for time eternal!
Recorded between July and September this year at Flatline Audio and produced, engineered, mixed, and mastered by Dave Otero, both parts of Satan's Host's "Pre-dating god" feature artwork by the legendary Joe Petagno.

Our goal is to always push the envelope and explore new territory musically and lyrically. Harry is singing more powerful today than he ever has. Patrick is just a master of riffs and song structures, and he is always coming up with phenomenal material - the man never stops. And for me, well, I'm just having a blast making records and jamming with my metal brothers. We really hope that the fans enjoy this effort, because there is more coming in future!"

August 25, 2014- EMPIRE AURIGA stream new MORIBUND album at "Halifax Collect"!!!

EMPIRE AURIGA

Today, individualist black/ambient/industrial cult Empire Auriga stream the entirety of their forthcoming album, Ascending the Solar Throne, at esteemed cultural journal Halifax Collect. The band's long-awaited comeback record, Ascending the Solar Throne is set for release on August 19th via Moribund Records. Empire Auriga's debut album, Auriga Dying, was critically acclaimed for its ahead-of-the-time fusion of black metal, dark ambient, and industrial, all coalescing into a cosmic black hole that was both devouring and debilitating. Eight years later, Empire Auriga return with the highly anticipated Ascending the Solar Throne. Aptly titled once again, Empire Auriga bring us the true sound of interstellar death with Ascending the Solar Throne. Here, the mysterious trio exists as the delirious melancholia awakened by union with the void, wisps encircling the kernal of futility at the center of each body, shining with listless abandon, seething as evaporation through obsolete ruins, smoldering with the intuition of having seen through the membrane. This is the sound of Ascending the Solar Throne! Hear the entirety for yourself exclusively HERE, courtesy of Halifax Collect. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

EmpireAuriga_Solar_CD

Tracklisting for EMPIRE AURIGA's Ascending the Solar Throne

1. Prophetic Light [5:45]
2. Jubilee Warlord [5:32]
3. The Solarthrone [5:01]
4. Waste [2:50]
5. Planetary Awakening [5:30]
6. Are You Worthy of Gold? [4:06]
7. The Foundation of All Human Fears [4:56]
8. The Last Passage of Azon Grul [7:21]

With EMPIRE AURIGA's current lineup consisting of Boethius ("communications"), 90000065B ("transmissions"), and Gestalt ("static"), a communique from the band reads: "Ascending the Solar Throne hovers, wavering, in a state of paradoxical scope and size, simultaneously collapsing and shrinking back into itself and expanding outward like vapors finding escape through cracks in a facade. A hallucination induced by internalized elements of black metal, doom, psychedelic, shoegaze, industrial, and contemporary ambient, facilitated by DSP environments, immersed deep in catatonic trance like an oil-puddle rainbow, EMPIRE AURIGA seeks the machine in the ghost."

August 6, 2014- PROVOCATOR set release date for MORIBUND debut!!!

PROVOCATOR

Today, Serbian black metal barbarian PROVOCATOR premieres the new song "The Unholy Rape of the Holy Whore" at heavily trafficked web-portal GunShyAssassin.com. The track hails from the band's forthcoming debut album, Antikristus, set for release on August 19th via MORIBUND RECORDS. PROVOCATOR comes from the sick & twisted mind of BLEEDING FIST founder Hellscream, Antikristus his vilest and arguably most violent project yet. Across Antikristus, Hellscream conjures from his black-blood cauldron a hypnotic whirlwind of primitive, primal savagery that positively reeks of the ancient ways of black metal. But while reverent of the most diabolical works of Beherit, VON, and Sarcofago, PROVOCATOR imbues its blackout trance with a potent sense of ritualism and devil worship, a crude 'n' caustic pulse that aims to either possess or erase - or both. The original vanguard of isolationist black metal, MORIBUND once again delivers the one-man goods with PROVOCATOR. Hear for yourself exclusively HERE, courtesy of GunShyAssassin.com. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

Dead206_PROVOCATOR_Antikristus_DigiSleeve_CD

Tracklisting for PROVOCATOR's Antikristus

1. Let Jesus Fuck You (intro) [0:09]
2. Unholy Rape Of The Holy Whore [3:51]
3. 7 Storms of Eternal Damnation [4:47]
4. Conqueror Of Blasphemus Revenge [5:02]
5. Profanation of the Cross [3:50]
6. Kirkebrann [3:35]
7. Black Star of Lucifer [3:52]
8. Antikristus [3:24]

A statement from Hellscream reads: "The story started in 2012 when I started to put together all the old material that I never used for Bleeding Fist and was laying down in my closet for years, so I wrote the first EP, Darkness is Rising, which was released under the banner of Doomentia Records, strictly limited to 300 copies as a 7˝ vinyl. After that release, I was pretty much inspired in that old raw and morbid way of making music, so I decided to start putting together the full-length, which was written in a few days. After that, I booked the studio and recorded the whole album in a day. PROVOCATOR is simply a tribute to the old raw sound of the the first wave of black metal as Hellhammer, Blasphemy, VON, Bathory."

July 14, 2014- VARDAN premiere new track at AgainstMagazine.com!!!

Today, isolationist black metal cult VARDAN premieres the new track "A Broken Existence" at heavily trafficked web-portal AgaintsMagazine.com. The song is the opening epic to VARDAN's forthcoming new album, Enjoy of Deep Sadness, set for release on August 5th via MORIBUND RECORDS. Hot on the heels of the celebrated The Woods is My Coffin released by MORIBUND earlier this year, VARDAN returns with his most soul-draining release yet, Enjoy of Deep Sadness. Chronologically the 12th album in the restless solo-visionary's ever-growing catalog, Enjoy of Deep Sadness is everything its title promises: sorrowful, time-stretched epics of hauntingly melodic melancholy. But this time, VARDAN elongates his depressive suicidal black metal into three double-digit funeral dirges that total 36 minutes of cold, grim, trance-inducing majesty, perhaps delivering his crowning achievement. The DSBM scene has a new king, and his name is VARDAN! Hear for yourself exclusively HERE, courtesy of AgainstMagazine.com. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

May 21, 2014- WHERE EVIL FOLLOWS sign with MORIBUND - feature members of Onward and Ashes of Ares!!!

Where Evil Follows

Where Evil Follows

Today, MORIBUND RECORDS announces the signing of American speed metal force WHERE EVIL FOLLOWS. The first fruit of this union shall be WHERE EVIL FOLLOWS' debut album, Portable Darkness, tentatively slated for a late September release through MORIBUND. This album features the incredible talents of multi-instrumentalist Dean Sternberg. Dean handles soaring yet aggressive vocals and brings his bass-playing talents to the band. Dean is currently the touring bassist and back-up vocalist for ex-Iced Earth singer Matt Barlow's new band, Ashes of Ares. Earlier, Dean was chosen for touring vocalist position in Into Eternity and toured the globe extensively. Guitarist Toby Knapp is the musical mastermind of WHERE EVIL FOLLOWS, taking his diabolical visions back into the realm of dark and furious heavy metal with a hefty nod towards '80s speed metal. Knapp's underground fanbase have enjoyed his tenures with GODLESS RISING, WAXEN, and as a solo album instrumentalist starting with Shrapnel Records two decades ago, but perhaps it's the Onward fans that await this album most, as Knapp returns to what he arguably does best: straight-up heavy metal with virtuostic guitar passages combined with an intelligently soaring and melodic vocalist to bring his music to full fruition.

In 2012, the original vocalist of Knapp's long broken-up band Onward, Michael Grant, tragically passed away too soon. Knapp announced to the press that he would never again operate in a traditional metal context under the name Onward, leaving the band's legacy intact. But as with Heaven and Hell being the other "Black Sabbath" and Masters of Metal being the other "Agent Steel," WHERE EVIL FOLLOWS picks up where Onward left off musically. If ever there was a continuation of the Onward story, WHERE EVIL FOLLOWS is it, the name being taken from an Onward song Knapp requested the late Grant to write and which Knapp also contributed lyrics to. The first initial hearings of WHERE EVIL FOLLOWS' Portable Darkness debut stirred the metallic souls of the MORIBUND Cult right after the label released Knapp's black metal project, WAXEN's Agios Holokauston. In addition to finding a home with MORIBUND RECORDS, WHERE EVIL FOLLOWS' unrelenting old-school heavy metal approach brought in Germany's Pure Steel Records shortly after they released Onward's Century Media catalog on vinyl, creating a first-of-its-kind merger between the elite darkness of MORIBUND RECORDS and the power metal purity of Pure Steel Records, whom will be releasing the album on vinyl. Cover and tracklisting for Portable Darkness to be revealed shortly.



May 16, 2014- MORBUS 666 sign with MORIBUND, featuring Imprecation and Bahimiron members - prepare label debut!!!

Morbus 666 logo

Today, MORIBUND RECORDS announces the signing of Texas black metal cult MORBUS 666. MORBUS 666 was formed in 2009 in the Houston, Texas underground from members of Adumus and fellow MORIBUND labelmates BAHIMIRON. In the first year, they recorded their debut MLP, Mortuus Cultus, out of songs that were originally written for Adumus. Adumus was about to take a indefinite break due to Cerebus (vocals) enlisting into the armed forces, so the remaining members of the band (Vomit, Moon, and Archfiend) set out to find a temporary replacement and finish the songs that they had written. They invited Grimlord from BAHIMIRON to help them with the vocals, and with this union came the early blueprint for the band.

After a few rehearsals, they all decided that a different band name was in order, as the new songs did not quite fit what was previously laid down with their band Adumus. Grimlord came up with the name MORBUS 666. The name was created to represent infernal sickness and disease, a different way to reference demonic possession. The first material still had a strong Adumus influence within, and the band agreed moving forward that a new direction would slowly filter its way into the newer batch of material. The first song of their new identity came in the form of "Through Black Fog Burns the Eyes of the Devil," which appears on their split with Teratism entitled Spilling the Blood of the Righteous. The gatefold 7" vinyl was released on Worthless Endeavors in early 2012.

Then MORBUS 666 went into a dead-but-dreaming state, lurking away from sight and all the while gestating into a new form. Finally, in 2014, they decided to unearth the beast and get serious with the band, as it had always been a side-note of sorts while the members focused on their priorities with Imprecation and BAHIMIRON. MORBUS 666 revamped their lineup, with Moon and Grimlord continuing with the band and adding members Priest (Thornspawn), Poe (Unchrist), and Jenoside (Bahimiron). Now they are ready to unleash new material, to be released on MORIBUND RECORDS later this year.

April 22, 2014- WORMREICH debut first video from new MORIBUND album!!!

Today, rising American black metal cult WORMREICH premiere a video for the new track "Revelation II: Serpents of Choronzon." Directed by guitarist/keyboardist N. Vathron, "Revelation II: Serpents of Choronzon" hails from the band's brand-new second album, Wormcult Revelations, recently released by MORIBUND RECORDS. Rising from the ashes of the late, great Blood Stained Dusk, WORMREICH's Wormcult Revelations displays a black metal band both forward-thinking and classicist, balancing an oft-dissonant and complex form of challenging, spiraling songcraft with a widescreen, cinematic scope that underlines a deep understanding of ancient black metal values. Rounded out by a clear, nuanced production, Wormcult Revelations will soon have WORMREICH mentioned in the same breath as the esteemed likes of Nightbringer and Deathspell Omega. Witness visual/sonic evidence of such HERE, with the premiere video off Wormcult Revelations.

Tracklisting for WORMREICH's Wormcult Revelations.

I. Revelation I: Vox in Rama 2:30
II. Revelation II: Serpents of Choronzon 7:06
III. Shaare-Maveth 1:57
IV. Revelation III: Devotion's Final War 7:15
V. Revelation IV: Enim Satanas Meum Sanguinem 7:25
VI. Codex Lvciferivm 5:08
VII. Malign Paradigm [Deathspell Omega cover] 4:45

Comments the band, "WORMREICH was created with the sole purpose of channeling the timeless void that will one day consume the universe and return all of creation to a state of pure, undefiled chaos. We emerged from the Bible Belt of the United States, with Satan as our champion and idol, and we create menacing, violent, ethereal black metal art. Nothing more, nothing less. Our war is a holy war, and our devotion is endless!"

WORMREICH was spawned from the endless void in early 2009 by Vulk Obsidiam (Viidron, ex-Anociticus) with the sole intention of exploring the concepts of Luciferianism and spiritual perversion through intense, dissonant, atmospheric, and ideologically-driven black metal. Soon, he was joined by N. Vathron (Viidron, ex-Firth of Damnation), a musician with similar vision and philosophy. Their self-produced debut full-length, Edictvm DCLXVI, was released on May 27th, 2011 through V's own label, Idolatry Records. A short time later, drummer Profana (Blood Stained Dusk, HaXXan, Octagon, ex-Ancient) entered the covenant. In January of 2013, WORMREICH entered Stargate Studio in Huntsville, AL, USA, with producer Lance Wright (ex-Quinta Essentia, Abraxas) to record their latest mass and first for MORIBUND, Wormcult Revelations.

April 21, 2014- HRIZG set release date for new MORIBUND album!!!

Hrizg 2014

Today, MORIBUND RECORDS announces June 22nd as the release date for HRIZG's long-awaited Individualism. Ever aptly titled, Individualism sees this one-man black metal cult perfecting his iron-willed, iron-clad craft, contorting the otherworldly mysticism of ancient black metal to his own isolationist design. Compared to 2011's celebrated Anthems to Decrepitude, HRIZG's Individualism drives at both extremes - classic grimness vs. tense atonality - but arrives at a destination no less sepulchral and dynamic. Enter the realm of Individualism... Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

HRIZG_Individualism_CD

Tracklisting for HRIZG's Individualism
I. Bellum Omnium Contra Omnes (1:24)
II. The Darkness I Witness (3:31)
III. No Life After Life (3:25)
IV. To Leave the Roots Grow... (1:48)
V. Night of the Wolf (4:45)
VI. When the Cryings are for the Weak (4:06)
VII. The Hall of Falseness and Impurity (4:44)
VIII. The Strong Against the Stronger (2:57)
IX. From Endless Blackness (4:24)
X. With a Crown of Bitterness (5:27)
XI. The Lament of God (4:53)

A statement from HRIZG mainman Erun-Dagoth reads: "I did Individualism as a call for the inner strength against those ones who crawl through the scene holding the banner of weakness. HRIZG plays black metal for the strongest of the strong!" A video of Erun-Dagoth recording drums for Individualism at Khazad-Dûm Studios can be viewed HERE.



April 18, 2014- WAXEN premiere new track at NoCleanSinging.com!!!

Waxen

Today, American black metallers WAXEN premiere the new track "Hollow Eyes" at heavily trafficked web-portal NoCleanSinging.com. The track hails from WAXEN's Agios Holokauston, set for release on May 27th via MORIBUND RECORDS. WAXEN is the cult solo-project of metal vet and scene legend Toby Knapp (Onward, Toby Knapp band, GODLESS RISING), and Agios Holokauston is WAXEN's first album for MORIBUND and second overall. But above all, Agios Holokauston is dark 'n' dazzling display of Knapp's songwriting acumen and technical mastery. Handling all instruments, complex 'n' coiling black metal is ripped asunder with Knapp's characteristic brand of shred, his six-string sorcery winding 'n' wending through all manner of riff catacombs yet always locating a haunting, poignant place for the listener to dwell. But no matter where WAXEN's diabolical vision goes, Knapp never loses sight of heavy metal songcraft. Hear for yourself exclusively HERE.

WAXEN's Agios Holokauston

Tracklisting for WAXEN's Agios Holokauston

1. Suicidium 4:20
2. Procession 11 5:27
3. Destined For Division 4:13
4. At War With Reason Itself 6:26
5. With Hatred Be Destroyed 4:38
6. Hollow Eyes 6:03
7. Eight The Adept 4:30

A statement from Toby Knapp reads: "Waxen is my personal, musical manifestation of the extreme negative polarity. Waxen's debut was recorded nearly a decade ago, and this follow-up Agios Holokauston was only made possible by a cloud of darkness that once again lingered over me that needed to be transformed into an artform. I recorded this in the most primitive ways to capture the true essence of black metal. Broken, tiny earphones were used as the 'microphone,' and all instruments were plugged into a 4-track and overdriven by 'maxing out' the unit itself. My aim is to reintroduce a strain of black metal that inspired me, bands like Octinomos, Algaion, early Graveland, and Craft, just to name a few."

Killgasm

Today, American black/grind cult KILLGASM premiere the new track "Revenge of the Panzergoat" at heavily trafficked web-portal NoCleanSinging.com. The track hails from the band's forthcoming A Stab in the Heart of Christ, set for release on May 27th via MORIBUND RECORDS. Following on from their critically acclaimed Bloodbath in Satanic Vengeance debut in 2011, A Stab in the Heart of Christ is the Californian power-trio's highly anticipated second album. KILLGASM's first album for MORIBUND, A Stab in the Heart of Christ is everything it says on the tin: blistering, belligerent black metal fused with caustic, chaotic grindcore, with the target firmly set on dog's creation. With apparent unconcern for the listener's well-being, KILLGASM create a whirlwind of filth and fury, but one not locked into the conventions of neither black metal nor grindcore. Hear for yourself exclusively HERE.

Tracklisting for KILLGASM's A Stab in the Heart of Christ

1. Black Grinding Terror (1:42)
2. Revenge of the Panzergoat (2:28)

7. A Stab in the Heart of Christ (6:11)
8. Fisting Your Faith (5:27)
9. Miserable Existence (4:16)
10. Humanity in Ashes (5:36)

A statement from KILLGASM reads: "Moribund Cult has been one of our favorite labels for well over a decade now, and we are honored to have our upcoming releases be under same banner that has released such influential bands as Grand Belial's Key, Archgoat, Judas Iscariot, Sargeist, Arghoslent, Craft, Leviathan, Arckanum, Fornicator, Drawn and Quartered, Bahimiron, Thy Infernal, Meat Shits, Satan's Host, Azaghal, Dodsferd, Xasthur, Horna, Old Wainds, Nocturnal Fear, Behexen, and Winter of Apokalypse among countless others! From the very inception of this project, we felt Moribund would be the ideal label for us, as they do not in any way censor their artists and no subject matter is taboo for them. And above all else, Moribund Cult is notorious for releasing only the most evil, hateful, disgusting and perverted black metal and filth grind, which are the very aesthetics this band was built upon."

The follow-up to 2012's breakthrough debut The Dragon Lineage of Satan, PACT's The Infernal Hierarchies up-ratchets everything in the power-trio's already-loaded arsenal - militant songwriting, commanding execution, vortextural violence - once again proving that pure black metal is still a wellspring of diabolism and hatred if treated with respect and the right values. And just like its title, the nine-song The Infernal Hierarchies, Penetrating the Threshold of Night offers the listener myriad sinister paths to glory. Hear one of those paths exclusively HERE.

8. Asmodeus Beast of Judgement 5:13
9. The Howling of Gamchicoth 6:16

"The Infernal Hierarchies was recorded at our own studio, Nuclear Funeral," reveals the band of their new MORIBUND album. "It was mixed and mastered at Anthropicide Studios for a much better production than The Dragon Lineage release. It features written works by black magick practitioner and author E.A. Koetting. Our approach to writing extends far beyond the process of merely composing songs and reaches into worlds of occultism and dark spirituality. Our band plays the music that we want to hear. We present a work of true sonic black magick that will unleash the spirits of the infernal hierarchies from the depths of the subconscious."

In other PACT news, the band will be playing the Wrath Of The Goat III fest in Pittston, PA at The Rattler, set to take place September 19-20. PACT will be playing alongside fellow MORIBUND cults SUMMON and WORMREICH and other noteworthy bands such as Kult Ov Azazel, Manticore, and Martyrvore.

March 7, 2014- PROFEZIA premiere new track on "Halifax Collect"!!!

Today, Italian black metal cult PROFEZIA premiere the new track "Oracolo Suicida" on intellectual journal "Halifax Collect." The song is the title track to PROFEZIA's forthcoming new album, Oracolo Suicida, released this week on MORIBUND RECORDS. The long-running Italian black metallers' first album for MORIBUND and third overall, Oracolo Suicida displays PROFEZIA as masters of high drama and windswept mysticism, evincing the moonlit melancholy so inherent to classic Italian black metal (mainman Kvasir also doubles in MORIBUND cult Abhor) yet here led by eerily beautiful violin. Open your eyes to Oracolo Suicida and await your fate! Those visions can be heard exclusively HERE, along with an insight into the song's genesis. Released in a luxury digipack, the cover and tracklisting are as follows:

Tracklisting for PROFEZIA's Oracolo Suicida

March 05, 2014- BLEEDING FIST premiere new track on CvltNation.com!!!

Bleeding Fist

Today, BLEEDING FIST premiere the new track "Brotherhood of Chaos and Death" at heavily trafficked web-portal CvltNation.com. The track hails from BLEEDING FIST's new compilation, Death's Old Stench, released yesterday by MORIBUND RECORDS. Subtitled "The Deathcult Sessions," with Death's Old Stench, the Slovenian chaos black metallers open up their crypt to reveal an arsenal of unreleased songs from 2011-2013. At a dozen tracks strong, Death's Old Stench unveils a different side to BLEEDING FIST, one less manic and chaotic and more classically grim and ghastly. Still characteristically BLEEDING FIST, this special collection serves as a haunting precursor to their next MORIBUND album, of which seven songs were recently written - "the result that came out of a weekend drenched in alcoholic rites, a sick-to-the-bone old black/thrash metal monstrosity," according to a band statement. Hear for yourself, exclusively HERE.

Tracklisting for BLEEDING FIST's Death's Old Stench

1. Angel Negro (Intro)
2. Holy Saint of Death
3. Brotherhood Of Chaos And Death
4. Revelation Of Degenesis
5. The Veiled Crowned Queen
6. De La Muerte (Intermezzo)
7. Azazel
8. Death Almighty Death
9. Blackened Illumination
10. Tweens Of Darkness And Evil
11. Cursed Blood
12. Prelude To The Total Death 266 (Outro)

Regarding Death's Old Stench, vocalist Hellscream had the following to say: "Death's Old Stench is BLEEDING FIST's strangest, most obscure, and most esoteric effort. It's really different from what we've done up till now, but in a way, it describes perfectly one of darkest times in our life as a band and as individuals. After the departure of [guitarists] Angelus and Occultus, we thought whether to release this album, because it was incomplete and in a partial demo form, so we decided in 2013 to finish this work and release it as raw and fucked-up as it was when we last left the studio. So, this is not really a new BLEEDING FIST album, but a strange and alchemic occult statement to honor our master Satan."

In other BLEEDING FIST news, the band welcomes new guitarist Jex, who replaces the aforementioned Angelus and Occultus, and who has contributed to those aforementioned seven songs slated for the band's next MORIBUND full-length. A statement from the band reads: "A long span of silence is behind us. But as you know, the sickest intents grow in silence and solitude." The new BLEEDING FIST lineup is thus:

Hellscream - vocals
Infernal K. - bass guitar
Jex - guitar
Krieg - drums

Today, Greek black 'n' rollers DODSFERD premiere an incendiary cover of THE MISFITS' "We Are 138" at Decibel magazine's website. A match made in Hell, the track hails from DODSERD's highly anticipated new album The Parasitic Survival of the Human Race, set for release on March 18th via MORIBUND RECORDS. A veritable black 'n' roll machine, the infectious The Parasitic Survival of the Human Race is DODSFERD's ugliest bastard offspring yet. Heralding a crustier, more punk side of the band, the Greeks desecrate the disease of humanity with four hellish new tracks and a cover of THE MISFITS "We Are 138," cloaked by original samples of the Greek riots of February 2012 and fouled by the bleak suicidal black metal for which DODSFERD have become world-renowned. Contagious as hell, this parasite is the loudest and filthiest spit in the face of the modern world ever unleashed by DODSFERD. Hear for yourself HERE, courtesy of North America's only monthly metal magazine.

Tracklisting for DODSFERD's The Parasitic Surival of the Human Race.
1. Breeding Chaos (6:20)
2. Creator Of Disease (6:57)

Rising from the ashes of the late, great Blood Stained Dusk comes USBM's most promising sonic sorcerers, WORMREICH. The band's second album to date and first for MORIBUND RECORDS, Wormcult Revelations displays a black metal band both forward-thinking and classicist, balancing an oft-dissonant and complex form of challenging, spiraling songcraft with a widescreen, cinematic scope that underlines a deep understanding of ancient black metal values. Rounded out by a clear, nuanced production, Wormcult Revelations will soon have WORMCULT mentioned in the same breath as the esteemed likes of Nightbringer and Deathspell Omega, whom WORMREICH cover with "Malign Paradigm." Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

Wormreich

Tracklisting for WORMREICH's Wormcult Revelations.

I. Revelation I: Vox in Rama 2:30
II. Revelation II: Serpents of Choronzon 7:06
III. Shaare-Maveth 1:57
IV. Revelation III: Devotion's Final War 7:15
V. Revelation IV: Enim Satanas Meum Sanguinem 7:25
VI. Codex Lvciferivm 5:08
VII. Malign Paradigm [Deathspell Omega cover] 4:45

Comments the band, "WORMREICH was created with the sole purpose of channeling the timeless void that will one day consume the universe and return all of creation to a state of pure, undefiled chaos. We emerged from the Bible Belt of the United States, with Satan as our champion and idol, and we create menacing, violent, ethereal black metal art. Nothing more, nothing less. Our war is a holy war, and our devotion is endless!"

WORMREICH was spawned from the endless void in early 2009 by Vulk Obsidiam (Viidron, ex-Anociticus) with the sole intention of exploring the concepts of Luciferianism and spiritual perversion through intense, dissonant, atmospheric, and ideologically-driven black metal. Soon, he was joined by N. Vathron (Viidron, ex-Firth of Damnation), a musician with similar vision and philosophy. Their self-produced debut full-length, Edictvm DCLXVI, was released on May 27th, 2011 through V's own label, Idolatry Records. A short time later, drummer Profana (Blood Stained Dusk, HaXXan, Octagon, ex-Ancient) entered the covenant. In January of 2013, WORMREICH entered Stargate Studio in Huntsville, AL, USA, with producer Lance Wright (ex-Quinta Essentia, Abraxas) to record their latest mass and first for MORIBUND, Wormcult Revelations.

January 15, 2014- DODSFERD set release date for new MORIBUND album!!!

Today, MORIBUND RECORDS sets March 18th as the release date for DODSFERD's highly anticipated ninth album, The Parasitic Survival of the Human Race. A veritable black 'n' roll machine, the infectious The Parasitic Survival of the Human Race is DODSFERD's ugliest bastard offspring yet. Heralding a crustier, more punk side of the band, the Greeks desecrate the disease of humanity with four hellish new tracks and a cover of THE MISFITS "We Are 138," cloaked by original samples of the Greek riots of February 2012 and fouled by the bleak suicidal black metal for which DODSFERD have become world-renowned. Contagious as hell, this parasite is the loudest and filthiest spit in the face of the modern world ever unleashed by DODSFERD. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

Tracklisting for DODSFERD's The Parasitic Surival of the Human Race.
1. Breeding Chaos (6:20)
2. Creator Of Disease (6:57)

January 10, 2014- VARDAN premiere first track from new MORIBUND album on PureGrainAudio.com!!!

Today, VARDAN premieres the new track "Goatcraft" on heavily trafficked web-portal PureGrainAudio.com. This epic, wrist-slitting track hails from VARDAN's forthcoming new album, The Woods is My Coffin, set fore release on January 21st through MORIBUND RECORDS. Highly coveted and sought after within the underground, The Woods Is My Coffin is VARDAN's rare fifth album, which follows the MORIBUND releases of ...Dreaming ...Living My Funeral and Lifeless Shadow, both unleashed last year. Italy's rising star of the DSBM scene, the one-man VARDAN bestows grim, cold, and depressive black metal filled with acoustics, inhuman vocals, contra bass, and droning overtones, all wrapped in a shroud of mystery and darkness. Gloomy, mesmerizing passages filled with sorrow, suicide, Satanism, and personal emotion are delivered with an atmosphere and conviction not heard since the early days of the Norwegian black metal scene. Hear for yourself exclusively here:

January 8, 2014- APOSTOLUM premiere first track from new MORIBUND album at GunShy Assassin.com!!!

Today, APOSTOLUM premiere the new track "Unworthiness and Decay" at heavily trafficked web-portal GunShyAssassin.com. This epic, soul-searing song hails from APOSTOLUM's highly anticipated second album, Winds of Disillusion, set for release on January 21st via MORIBUND RECORDS. Blending the dark atmospheric tradition of scene legends My Dying Bride, Anathema, and Paradise Lost with the razor sharp-edge of modern black metal while retaining a rock sensibility, APOSTOLUM create a bleak sound-picture. Incorporating keyboards as well acoustic grand piano and brass, these Italian dark metal icons show their strength in songwriting and creating atmospheric classics. Hear for yourself exclusively here:

Tracklisting for APOSTOLUM's Winds of Disillusion
1. Intro (Light Into The Void)
2. Unworthiness And Decay
3. Higher Planes Of Existence
4. Debris Of Perception
5. Less Than A Step
6. Gleam Of Lucidity

Guitarist Matteo comments: "Musically, the new album is not the result of the choice to move in a direction rather than another; the entire writing process took place in a very spontaneous and natural way. We did not feel the need to make drastic changes to our sound - forcing a change is likely to remove a band from its purest form. Composing so instinctively, I think we approached, as never before, our essence and the songs honestly represent what APOSTOLUM are today. The only things we set from the beginning of the creative process have been the ones to pay greater attention to the arrangements and songs structures, and improve as performers in the knowledge that we can rely on better equipment in the studio."

Continuing, he reveals, "Lyrically, the album is not a concept, but there is a common element that somehow combines the lyrics of individual songs, which is the current strengthening ourselves to a pessimistic view on the future of the human race and planet earth. Hence, the meaning of the title Winds of Disillusion - the impotence of the human being in front of the occurrence of external destructive natural events together with the inability to suppress the growing of inner feelings of total disillusionment, noting bitterly the inability to be able to remedy a relentless physical and moral decline...a strong emotional wind that sweeps away any hope from the human soul. Ultimately, I believe that Winds Of Disillusion is not only a big step forward compared to Anedonia, but the real APOSTOLUM masterpiece."




December 18, 2013- THRALL premiere first video from new MORIBUND album!!!

December 17, 2013- BLEEDING FIST set release date for new MORIBUND compilation, announce new lineup!!!

Bleeding Fist

Today, MORIBUND RECORDS announces March 4th, 2014 as the release date for BLEEDING FIST's new compilation, Death's Old Stench. Subtitled "The Deathcult Sessions," with Death's Old Stench, the Slovenian chaos black metallers open up their crypt to reveal an arsenal of unreleased songs from 2011-2013. At a dozen tracks strong, Death's Old Stench unveils a different side to BLEEDING FIST, one less manic and chaotic and more classically grim and ghastly. Still characteristically BLEEDING FIST, this special collection serves as a haunting precursor to their next MORIBUND album, of which seven songs were recently written - "the result that came out of a weekend drenched in alcoholic rites, a sick-to-the-bone old black/thrash metal monstrosity," according to a band statement. Tracklisting and cover for Death's Old Stench are as follows:

Tracklisting for BLEEDING FIST's Death's Old Stench

1. Angel Negro (Intro)
2. Holy Saint of Death
3. Brotherhood Of Chaos And Death
4. Revelation Of Degenesis
5. The Veiled Crowned Queen
6. De La Muerte (Intermezzo)
7. Azazel
8. Death Almighty Death
9. Blackened Illumination
10. Tweens Of Darkness And Evil
11. Cursed Blood
12. Prelude To The Total Death 266 (Outro)

Regarding Death's Old Stench, vocalist Hellscream had the following to say: "Death's Old Stench is BLEEDING FIST's strangest, most obscure, and most esoteric effort. It's really different from what we've done up till now, but in a way, it describes perfectly one of darkest times in our life as a band and as individuals. After the departure of [guitarists] Angelus and Occultus, we thought whether to release this album, because it was incomplete and in a partial demo form, so we decided in 2013 to finish this work and release it as raw and fucked-up as it was when we last left the studio. So, this is not really a new BLEEDING FIST album, but a strange and alchemic occult statement to honor our master Satan."

In other BLEEDING FIST news, the band welcomes new guitarist Jex, who replaces the aforementioned Angelus and Occultus, and who has contributed to those aforementioned seven songs slated for the band's next MORIBUND full-length. A statement from the band reads: "A long span of silence is behind us. But as you know, the sickest intents grow in silence and solitude." The new BLEEDING FIST lineup is thus:

Hellscream - vocals
Infernal K. - bass guitar
Jex - guitar
Krieg - drums

Today, MORIBUND RECORDS announces March 4th, 2014 as the release date for PROFEZIA's Oracolo Suicida. The long-running Italian black metallers' first album for MORIBUND and third overall, Oracolo Suicida displays PROFEZIA as masters of high drama and windswept mysticism, evincing the moonlit melancholy so inherent to classic Italian black metal (mainman Kvasir also doubles in MORIBUND cult Abhor) yet here led by eerily beautiful violin. Open your eyes to Oracolo Suicida and await your fate! Set to be released in a luxury digipack, the cover and tracklisting are as follows:

Tracklisting for PROFEZIA's Oracolo Suicida

Individualism shall be HRIZG's third album to date, and second for MORIBUND, who released the critically acclaimed Anthems to Decrepitude in 2011. As mainman Erun-Dagoth reveals, "All I can say is that Individualism is a kind of mixture between my two previous albums and the best effort I have done as a solo instrumentalist. As for lyrics, they are also more into the nihilist and misanthropic philosophy."

Projected released date by MORIBUND is in the vicinity of June/July 2014. Cover and tracklisting to be revealed imminently, but in the meantime, view a video of Erun-Dagoth recording drums for Individualism at Khazad-Dûm Studios:

September 30, 2011 - PACT signs with MORIBUND, debut album imminent!!!

Today, MORIBUND RECORDS announces the signing of PACT, who will release their The Dragon Lineage of Satan debut through the label early next year. Harsh and harrowing and yet with a mystical atmosphere, PACT are a black metal band from Pennsylvania who have been perfecting their dark craft in the shadows for the past six years. Says the band, "Our music is driven by the forces of chaos and death. It has seemed to us, as a band, that religion is a disease that plagued the earth by keeping people locked in the position of follower. We have always rebelled against this, and therefore play black metal infused with occult philosophy and power. Among the philosophies and traditions practiced are Golden Dawn, Germanic, and chaos magick - also the philosophies of Nietzsche and Kant, as well as the poetry of Blake, Crowley, and Baudelaire. Our ultimate goal is to cause change!"

PACT comprises vocalist Hag, guitarist Wretch, and T on drums. Concluding, the band says, "PACT is a vehicle for occult magick - a source of whirling chaotic energies and manifestations of the augoeides or higher creative genius. We proudly embrace the spirit of Satan and carry with us the divine fire of Lucifer.  We are very pleased to represent the mighty MORIBUND Cult."

A release date for PACT's The Dragon Lineage of Satan will be announced shortly.




August 30, 2011 - CHASMA sign with MORIBUND, label debut imminent!!!

Today, MORIBUND RECORDS announces the signing of CHASMA. A trio from Portland, Oregon, CHASMA are set to release their MORIBUND debut, Declarations of the Grand Artificer, later this year. With three songs clocking in at nearly 33 minutes, CHASMA's Declarations of the Grand Artificer is a bewildering but above all transcendent record, an epic recasting of classic black metal into otherworldly shapes and a plausibly modern contour. A specific release date for the album will be announced shortly.

Formed in 2008 by members of Nanda Devi and Alter of Earth, CHASMA began as a side-project to experiment with yet another form of extreme metal. After writing and recording three songs, CHASMA released a demo tape with the French black metal label Aural Offerings and began performing live. After encouragement from Aural Offerings and the local Northwest metal scene, CHASMA made another recording that was released by Aural Offerings on tape and CD. After playing two years of amazing shows with the likes of Wolves in the Throne Room, Bloody Panda, Trees, Thou, Nux Vomica, and Fell Voices, CHASMA guitarist Tony Komforty departed the project and was replaced by Klaus Maza of the LA crust band Sheeeeeeeep.

"Musically, we are influenced by new millenium-era French black metal and DC screamo," says the band, "and bands like Weakling, Joyless, Ameseours, and Majority Rule. We are influenced by the intensity and passion of our brotherhood as musicians and try to express that passion through dimension bending riffs. We don't really fit the black metal label; we consider ourselves either noir nouveau ['new black'] or bright metal."

"We're so stoked to work with the elite metal cult that is MORIBUND," the bands says, concluding. "We look forward to crusading across globe under their flag."

American black metal outlaws BAHIMIRON are ready to unleash their wolves to the flesh of Christ with Rebel Hymns of Left Handed Terror this fall on MORIBUND RECORDS. Set for release on October 25th, BAHIMIRON's Rebel Hymns of Left Handed Terror will contain nine hymns of rabid bestial nightmares, all in devotion to total death and the fiery depths of the black abyss. Full of rusty edges, this third shank in the guts will host such songs as "Their Blood Shall Fill My Chalice," "Bestial Raids of Antichrist Darkness," "Goathorned Messiah of the 7 Gates," and "Anointed in Serpents Blood." "This is the album that goes back to the true roots of black death metal for us," confirms vocalist/guitarist Grimlord, "all the things that originally hooked me into playing this type of heresy - the kind of stuff that comes at you with knives and the blood of Satan." 

One of the underground's most unpredictable yet potent forces, BAHIMIRON are always on the move, keeping everyone guessing whilst staying forever true to their twisted, hideous muse. Following on from their critically acclaimed/reviled second album (and first for MORIBUND), Southern Nihilizm, their latest Rebel Hymns of Left Handed Terror continues the trajectory that each BAHIMIRON full-length has been different than the one that preceded it, and here they dive deep into the most primitive, primeval black metal but then tear it asunder with haunting nuances entirely their own. Indeed, these are Rebel Hymns of Left Handed Terror!

August 20, 2011 - APOSTOLUM finishing new album for MORIBUND, their first record in four years!

Italian dark metallers APOSTOLUM are currently finising their new album for MORIBUND, to be entitled Winds of Disillusion. The follow-up to APOSTOLUM's previous record for MORIBUND, 2007's Anedonia, the quartet's Winds of Disillusion should be completed by September or October, with an early 2012 release likely. Guitarist Stone reports: "Winds of Disillusion is the consecration of APOSTOLUM, and will be a long ladder through the planes of existence, a journey inside the ruins of life, against a stupid existence of human life. The work will be very different from Anedonia - a disc much more complex, oppressive and obsessive, a record that clears the positive emotions. To suffer is to produce knowledge...."

June 30, 2011 - THRALL to release new album on MORIBUND +++ reveal title, tracklisting -


October / November 2011 - a year after their debut release on MORIBUND RECORDS, "Away From the Haunts of Men", THRALL will unleash their virulent second album, Vermin to the Earth. MORIBUND will release Vermin worldwide, with the exceptions of Australia and New Zealand, where Obsidian Records will release it.

Vermin documents the metamorphosis of THRALL from a sanguinary studio project to a formidable live entity that now includes Leigh Ritson (ex Disseminate) on bass and Ramez Bathish (ex Whitehorse / ABC Weapons) on second guitar. THRALL built their live reputation on punishing volume and an atmosphere of menace.

Vermin delivers a unique blend of old-school black metal and hypnotic void-worship. Songs range from bile-soaked mid-paced anthems ("Vermin to the Earth / Oblivion") to desolate lurching dirges ("Plague of Man") to blasting suicidal elegies ("Vita Vacuus Voluntas"). The new album is more: cohesive, hefty, solemn and yet more spacious than THRALL's debut, Away from the Haunts of Men. Vermin is a requiem to a cursed species. It advocates the expiration of the reign of homo sapiens and heralds the post-human era.

A preview track from the album will be added to the MORIBUND RECORDS website in the coming months.

"This album was written live and tracked very fucking quickly. In my opinion, Vermin is more evocative and cathartic than Haunts was. Those who are meant to unlock the spell of this album, will - those who aren't, will not." - Tom Void

"Vermin maintains a very live sound even in the studio, and I think it will surprise many people who know the first album as to just how different this sophomore is." - Em Støy.

Vermin was recorded across two hemispheres and continents. Drums were recorded in April 2010 by Ippei Suda (known for his work with Corrupted) at LM Studio, Osaka, Japan. Guitars, bass and vocals were recorded by Trent Griggs June - July 2010 at The Gate, Margate, Tasmania. The album was mixed by Trent Griggs August 2010 - June 2010 at The Gate, Margate, Tasmania. In July, the album will be mastered by Jack the Bear (Tony Mantz) at Deluxe Mastering, Melbourne, Victoria.

Tracklist for THRALL's Vermin to the Earth 1. Vermin to the Earth 2. Oblivion 3. Disease's Maiming Caress 4. Plague of Man 5. Mass Extinction 6. Ecstasy not of the Flesh 7. Vita Vacuus Voluntas

June 30, 2011 - CANIS DIRUS recording new album, reveals title -


Today, Minnesota black metal group CANIS DIRUS reveal that they are recording the follow-up to their critically acclaimed MORIBUND debut album, A Somber Wind From a Distant Shore. Entitled Anden om Norr - which loosely translates, from Swedish to English, as "The Spirit from the North" - the duo's second album for MORIBUND will again be recorded at the band's own Harsh Winter Studios and will be mastered by AGALLOCH's Jason Walton. Additionally, one of the tracks will feature Claudio Alcara of FROSTMOON ECLIPSE on guitar.

Multi-instrumentalist TMP reveals more about CANIS DIRUS' forthcoming Anden om Norr: "Once again, we will take our inspiration from our beautiful nature / surroundings in northern Minnesota. As with the last album, A Somber Wind from a Distant Shore, the overall feel / atmosphere of the record will take on a more 'depressing / melancholy' view of how human scum continously treats nature with contempt and disrespect." Unfortunately, "we recently had a flood in the studio, which did some damage to some equipment, and also in the processs we lost some of the stuff we already had recorded. I have since 're-built' the studio and added some new equipment, which will definitely contribute to a much better production this time around."

CANIS DIRUS is completed by vocalist RH. Tentative release date for Anden om Norr will likely be during the fall of this year.

June 30, 2011 - MOON (Australia) signs with MORIBUND, release date set+++ -

Today, MORIBUND RECORDS announces the signing of Australia's MOON, dark occult black metal from one Miasmyr. The band's first release for MORIBUND shall be Caduceus Chalice, set for release on June 28th. MOON's Caduceus Chalice pervades a hypnotic sense of obscure mysticism within a dark ambience of distorted screams, cavernous echoes and entrancing pulse. Ceremonial Magick, invocations of spirits, glorifications of darkness, underworld realms and apocalyptic apparitions are the basis for this astral visionary experience. Breeding the unlife in archaic worlds, MOON is an ode to darkness and its spirit.

Biography
Obscure black metal from Brisbane, Australia, MOON is the visionary experience of ceremonial magick and astral projection. It works through transcendent hypnosis and bleak atmospheres.

Formed in 2007 by one Miasmyr, MOON stirred interest in the underground black metal scene for its ethereal spirit and raw but evocative sound. Three EPs were released, which sold well, and gained MOON a small following. The first full-length, Caduceus Chalice, was released on cassette in early 2010 and will be released on June 28th, 2011 on CD through MORIBUND RECORDS. MOON have been playing live since 2009, putting on dark and evocative shows in Brisbane.

Miasmyr has played in several black metal bands since 1999. Starting with the cult Catacomb, which played for many years in Brisbane, he has also played in Urgrund and Forn Valdyrheim. MOON, his solo project, also developed a strong following within its early life, starting with a compilation MCD called Magick Rituals from the Dutch label Svartgalgh Records. He went on to release a self-titled EP through Wolfsvuur (Netherlands) and two more MCDs, Apparitions and Blood. Following that, he featured as being the only black metal band on the Brismetal compilation with "Apparition III" from the Apparitions EP. Another split was released featuring MOON, Nekrosov and Nekros Manteia called The Haunting Resonance (Fall of Nature Records), which received good reviews for exhibiting black metal's fringes with outside genres.

The new full-length Caduceus Chalice was released on limited-edition audio cassette through Wolfsvuur Records (Netherlands) in February 2010. It evokes the darkness of the underworld and necromantic summonings. It has the underground black metal sound like Elysian Blaze, Xasthur and Striborg.

MOON is currently getting together a new lineup to play more live shows in Australia.

Credits
All tracks written and recorded by Miasmyr (Paul Marsh) of MOON except for "The Caverns" track with guest percussionist Aciretose. All releases have been mastered at Alchemix Studios (www.Alchemix.com.au) by Marly Luske. Logo art and cover designs by Dirge (Kieran Gelders) Live session players past and present:
Aciretose - Drums,
Dirge - Bass
Daan - Guitar
James - Vocals
(Miasmyr - Guitar, vocals)
Krist - Drums
Karnull - Vocals

Musical Content
MOON's descent into the occult is an unhinging and breaking down of the self to open the inner mind. Its representation of spirits and daemons are keys to unlocking gateways of the psyche; they eliminate meaning and structure of the rational mind so to free the self to be brought into the infinite realm of darkness. This takes place in the Astral Nightside and Regnum Spiritus (the spirit world). Much like in dreams, a breaking of continuity and hyper-association is found in the music.

Influences are taken from workings with well-known grimoires such as The Goetia and the Necronomicon and more contemporary works such as those by Ea Koetting and Michael W. Ford. The music is to serve as guided imagery for astral projection; much of the content is either an astral journey or ritual. Forest Samhain is one such ritual which takes place on the day of and in the place of its title; this is a ritual of necromancy and darkness.

The full-length title Caduceus Chalice is a reference to masculine and feminine symbolism which is used in numerous areas of the occult. They are used as such in the Rider-Waite Tarot deck and in Goetic Witchcraft. The chalice also represents introspection and the Astral Nightside; the song "Chalice" is one such journey into its abysmal depths.

Form and Style
MOON's music thus far has been recorded by Miasmyr in his own basement studio. The approach to self-production aids in introspective expression. Many of the songs have grown over a period in atmosphere and character; it is this building of spirit that makes the music strong.

Often, the density is stripped back to help the layers and parts come through effectively. There is a combination of blending and layering parts to form unique timbres and tones. Effects on keyboards, guitar and vocals are vehicles only for the creation of a brooding sound; it is the drive of the arcane spirit that directs the development of the music.

The use of repetition and subtle development is a means to draw the listener into a hypnotic state. The different instrumental parts often play as entities, subtly influencing the dimension set up in the mind of the listener. Use of reverb creates space for the music to live and breathe, giving a cavernous echo to the sound overall. The choirs are a dominant and atmospheric element which has remained part of MOON's sound from the beginning; they are characterized as spirits invoking the listener into a bleak and arcane demise and build greater dimension to this sanctum of unlife.

August 17, 2010 - Lebanese madmen AYAT "Carry On Carrion" -

Lebanon's infamous AYAT - whose 2008 MORIBUND-released album, Six Years of Dormant Hatred, strictly polarized critics as either "genius" or "garbage" but forcing an opinion out of everyone - reveal that they're currently recording their follow-up MORIBUND album, tentatively titled Carry On Carrion. As vocalist Filthy Fuck explains, "So I walked. And the 67 viral winds of the East whistled in my hollow bones, particles of disease sticking on the edges. And William died on me, too. A fever runs through my blood like rivers to the sea. Six years of dormant hatred lay in pieces behind me and thousands of dead motherfuckers are walking around the thousand-times-dead fucking mother-city. And the dead exceed the living and will look after them in their own special way. And there was but one phrase on my tongue like a snake rolled on a shaft - 'Carry on, carrion... Carry on...'."

The track listing to Carry On Carrion has already been decided by the band, but AYAT wish it to remain secret until release. Additionally, they promise that the new album shall be longer than 60 minutes and should be finished next month, with a late winter or early spring release through MORIBUND likely. When pressed for further details, Filthy Fuck simply shrugged and said, "Nothing but the fact that it will be longer, more insane, more vicious, and will shy Six Years... to a battered pulp. Not only by force, mind you, but also by sheer acidic caustic erosion. And we're Lebanese. In case some guy missed it."




August 13, 2010 - MORIBUND announces North American release of THRALL's "AFTHOM" -

MORIBUND RECORDS announces the North American release date of THRALL's debut album, Away From the Haunts of Men, as November 9th, 2010. Originally released overseas earlier this year by Total Holocaust Records, the North American edition of THRALL's Away From the Haunts of Men will include an exclusive bonus video for the track "Torrent of Death," which can be viewed in the meantime to the left & here:
THRALL "Torrent Of Death" Video
Comments the band, "THRALL are pleased to collaborate with the legendary MORIBUND CULT for the North American edition of our debut album, Away from the Haunts of Men. We strive to spread our contagious virulence to all mankind!" The band also details its aims here:

ORIGINS:
"THRALL is a Tasmanian black metal/doom band. You may ask, why does this matter? The howling gales of Antarctica have ironically sheltered large tracts of Tasmania from human habituation to this day. Since European settlement in 1803, the island's history has included the genocide of the Tasmanian aboriginals and cases of cannibalism among escaped convicts. THRALL is a product of this landscape, this history and no other."

IDEALOGY:
"Homosapiens are a plague mindlessly consuming the last of the Earth's resources; mass extinction/ecological cataclysm is upon us. THRALL's music howls a pro-void mantra advocating the post-human era. THRALL is an embodiment of the contradiction of being inherently human yet anti-human."
MUSIC: "THRALL fuse the mid-paced blastbeats of old-school black metal with lush vacuum-tube-soaked guitars. THRALL's instrumentation is textured and diverse, from primal black metal songs to spacious doom epics and atmospheric soundscapes. Seemingly primitive music is partnered with high-end production values, whilst remaining bile-soaked and sincerely misanthropic."

August 09, 2010 - SATAN'S HOST Enter Flatline Audio, record 9th album -

Satanic metal warlords SATAN'S HOST are currently at Flatline Audio with legendary super-producer Dave Otero working on the bands ninth studio album, entitled By the Hands of the Devil, to be released next year by MORIBUND RECORDS. With the departure of vocalist Eli Elixir and the return of Leviathan Thisiren (AKA Harry Conklin, of JAG PANZER and Titan Force) into the SH grotto on vocals, the band has recently performed in Germany for the Keep True Festival in April 2010, and have done some local Colorado shows to prepare for the new album. Founding six-string sorcerer Patrick Evil, with his cornucopia of uber-evil riffs, has been at the top of his game with all-new tracks that will devour the weak at heart and those who try to dismiss this true metal virtuoso. Anthony "Evil Hobbit" Lopez, making his second appearance on the drums of doom, has taken the groove to a new hellish high, and with the addition of Margar on dass, SATAN'S HOST have taken their musical journey to new, darker realms with deeper and broader themes and lyrical content. Adds Patrick Evil, "I think this will be our greatest album to date. Our ninth release for our 25th aniversary - how much better can it get than that?" Prepare for a revival of the primal!!!

August 05, 2010 - SARGEIST release date for long-awaited new album -

MORIBUND RECORDS confirms November 9th, 2010 as the release date for SARGEIST's long-awaited new album, Let the Devil In. Dedicated MORIBUND terrorists right from the start, SARGEIST's last full-length album was 2005's critically acclaimed Disciple of the Heinous Path, preceded by their classic Satanic Black Devotion debut in 2003. Featuring vocalist Torog and drummer Horns of cult Finnish horde BEHEXEN as well as the six-string sorcery of HORNA mastermind Shatraug, here on their third album SARGEIST display that black metalled orthodoxy need not spell creative death, that occult mysticism is still ripe for exploration if the words match the deeds – and especially if you have the songs to back them up. One anthem to the horned one after another, Let the Devil In masterfully balances raw, bloodcurdling passion with poised, steely-eyed professionalism: a new classic of traditional black metal is born!

Says Shatraug regarding the imminent release of Let the Devil In, "The forthcoming SARGEIST album took us more than five years to make. After two albums, the standard we had raised was needed to be met with a liturgy surpassing the previous works, and for that reason alone, it took such a long time to complete the new work. Finally, when everything started to fall in place, it didn't take long. Lyrically, Let the Devil In is a continuation of the heinous path we had chosen - that of black magic, necromancy, and worship of Satan. The result is definitely the strongest of SARGEIST yet, taking all the assets of our past with a new Satanic illumination."

Track listing-
I - Empire of Suffering
II - A Spell to Awaken the Temple
III - From the Black Coffin Lair
IV - Burning Voice of Adoration
V - Nocturnal Revelation
VI - Discovering the Enshrouded Eye
VII - Let the Devil In
VIII - Sanguine Rituals
IX - Twilight Breath of Satan
X - As Darkness Tears the World Apart

In other SARGEIST news, the band will have a split 7" with DROWNING THE LIGHT released by MORIBUND on September 28th, 2010.




July 20, 2010 - HAERESIARCHS OF DIS sign with MORIBUND RECORDS, prepare label debut -

MORIBUND RECORDS announces the signing of HAERESIARCHS OF DIS. HAERESIARCHS OF DIS is a one-man black metal project currently residing in the woods of Lexington Hills, California. Formed by Cernunnos, the band produces underground black metal bearing avant-garde, ambient, and melodic elements. Imagery and lyrical content are derived from misanthropic and anti-Christian ideologies with undercurrents of Indo-European mythology. The band has three releases to date including the debut full -ength Overture [2008], the Dis mini-CD [2010] of reissued older material - both on label Toadstool Enterprises - and the soon to be released second full-length Denuntiatus Cinis, set for release on October 12th through MORIBUND RECORDS.

At once cacophonous and orchestral, dissonant and magisterial, raging one minute and reposed the next, amorphous yet firmly defined: HAERESIARCHS OF DIS's Denuntiatis Cinis is an epic, envelope-pushing exploration of black metal aesthetics. The mysterious entity's MORIBUND debut, Denuntiatis Cinis takes black metal down complex corridors, each turn more twisted than the next, challenging the listener's perceptions of what "black metal" can comprise whilst ignoring the rulebook altogether. Forget "post-black metal" – remember HAERESIARCHS OF DIS.

The full track listing for HAERESIARCHS OF DIS' Denuntiatus Cinis is as follows:
1) Entry
2) Intent the Proem
3) The Respite
4) Intent Canticle
5) Intent the Augury
6) Bemoan the Fallen
7) Median Existere
8) Nine Days They Fell
9) Intent Concupiscence
10) Ad Baculum
11) Intent the Succedaneum
12) Passage
13) Intent Postremo Enclosure Orsorum
14) Exeunt
