IMPALED NAZARENE "Tol cormpt norz norz norz" as well as "Ugra karma" re-issue on Gatefold double LP are finally delayed. Now both record will be out under 12' LP and not 10'EP as originally state, This change happen to get a better sound result, so since we have to change the format, and also since we will be close from July 19th till August 20th, it simply make no sense to release there now as the stock won't be delivery until mid July.

FIDES INVERSA is the musical and philosophical emanation of an intricate spiritual reflection, in order to self glorify the being through the inversion of the judeo christian tradition and faith.
"Hanc Aciem Sola Retundit Virtus (the algolagnia divine)", first opus of the project, is a revaluation of the christian concept of Death, which, from a primeval punishment against the sinner, becomes an instrument of revenge towards Abraham's God.
Through the first three stations, representing the main examples of malamorte, the concept reaches a final thought with an ode to the mighty Opposer, the flaming Rebel. Sin and Virtue become the instruments, for he who was born as a son, to reclaim his right to the Lord.
Killing God in this sense, through Sin or our own Death, the individual will reborn in the glory of Cain's blood, not as a man, but as a God.
The path undertaken by FIDES INVERSA needs, for the aim of his complete conceptual purity, total anonymity. Neither the provenance, nor the mind behind the words, nor the arms behind the musical performance shall be revealed, in order to give not glory to men, but to our Lord.
Music and lyrics were composed between 2006 to 2008. Recorded in the first months of 2009, Osmose Productions is pround to announce the signature of the band.
Artwork and whole graphic designs by Arioch (Holy Poison design).
3 new shirts design are now available ! Check out below :

Norwegian Black Metallers Slagmaur, who recently inked a 3-album deal with Osmose to re-release their earlier albums "Svin" and "Skrekk Lich Kunstler", as well as their new album "Von Rov Shelter", have today released the front cover artwork for "Von Rov Shelter."
check it at : Web Site: www.slagmaur.com
The band issued the following statement about the artwork:
"The entire artwork for the album is the work of photographer and graphic artist Tine Marie Lund Kristensen and artist Robert Hoyem, and is based on a concept Slagmaur's founder, General Gribbsphiiser. The front cover is a representation of Leonardo Da Vinci's painting "The Last Supper", and the set itself took three weeks to build and light in order to capture the feel of the original as faithfully as possible.
"There, however, the similarity ends, with the figures of Christ and the Apostles being replaced by band members, friends and fictional characters in the guise of various satanic characters, and biblical or historical figures. THORNS Snorre W Ruch takes on the role of Cain, Åtselgribb is Judas Iscariot, Freddy Krueger is Nero, Bzilla is Legion, Krush is Belial, General Gribbsphiiser and Lilith are themselves.
"Von Rov Shelter", which is already receiving critical praise from pre-release listenings, is expected to be released on Osmose later this year, whilst "Svin" and "Skrekk Lich Kunstler" will be released shortly."

ABSU "Tara + In The Eyes Of Ioldanach"" album is out now under Digipack format.
 SLAGMAUR's "Von Rov Shelter" To Be Released on Osmose
Reclusive Norwegian Black Metallers SLAGMAUR have confirmed that they have signed with Osmose Productions for the release of their forthcoming album "Von Rov Shelter". This follows on from an earlier announcement that the band had signed with Osmose for the re-release of two of their previous albums "Svin" and "Skrekk Lich Kunstler".
"Von Rov Shelter", which means "Lair of the Beast" in Norwegian, was composed in much the same way as the 18th Century classical pieces, and has been over a year in the making, due to the painstaking work that goes into the approach that the band takes with its music in order to create a sinister, multi-layered sound. Standard rock instruments have been combined with classical instrument such as cellos and double basses, which SLAGMAUR's mastermind, General Gribbsphiiser, learned to play especially for the album.
The album's artwork was conceived by Gribbsphiiser to illustrate the lyrics of each song, working together with photographer and graphic artist Tine Marie Lund Kristensen, artist Robert Hoyem and seven actors, including the band themselves and Snorre W Ruch from the band THORNS, to produce the images he had envisaged. The front cover itself was shot following three weeks of preparation to build and light a set replicating Leonardo Da Vinci's painting "The Last Supper", but, as is usual with this band, there is a sinister twist to the whole thing that will be revealed when the artwork is finished.
Contributing to the lyrics on "Von Rov Shelter" is Thomas B Whitaker, an inmate on Death Row at the Polunsky Unit, in Livingstone, Texas. The band's manager had this to say about Whitaker's participation in the project: "Gribbsphiiser had been working out the concept for the lyrics, and was researching some material on the net, when he came across Whitaker's website. He was struck by Whitaker's ability to write prose, and express how it feels to be experiencing life from the perspective of someone who has to confront the enormity of what they have done, and face the consequences. Whitaker had never written any lyrics before, but he was willing to try, and when the band read them, they found them to be what they were looking for. They are used exactly as he wrote them, with no editing. As is inevitable when you are dealing with a prison system though, letters go "astray" in both directions, and unfortunately not as many lyrics as the band were intending to use actually arrived, so the whole concept had to be adjusted slightly". It is anticipated that "Von Rov Shelter" will be released in April, and more information about SLAGMAUR can be found on the band's MySpace page at www.myspace.com/slagmaur.

Osmose Productions have signed Norwegian Black Metallers SLAGMAUR for a two-album deal that will see the re-release of two of the band's earlier albums: "Svin" and "Skrekk Lich Kunstler". Commenting on the signing, Patricia Thomas, the UK-based manager of the notoriously reclusive band, who come from a remote part of Norway and who prefer to remain detached from the Black Metal scene, confirmed that the band had been approached by several labels in respect of their back catalogue: "The band have always been adamant that they themselves retain complete control over every aspect of their output. Osmose was able to appreciate the benefits of allowing SLAGMAUR to continue working in a way that has proved to be very successful so far, and both band and label felt comfortable with each other". "Svin" and "Skrekk Lich Kunstler" are due to be released on Osmose during 2009, and artist Robert Hoyem, who has produced some startling work for the band, has been commissioned to prepare new artwork for "Svin".

Hail the End!
Of a decade of madness...
AXIS OF ADVANCE has been laid to rest after 10 prolific years. There is no drama and no controversy; with 6 triumphant releases, multiple compilation appearances and several successful shows in Europe and North America, the band collectively agree - there remains nothing more to achieve.
As most within the pantheon of extreme heavy metal are already aware ? AXIS OF ADVANCE arose from the remains of Sacramentary Abolishment back in 1998. All involved in S.A. went on to push the very definition of ferocity in the years to come; yet, for Vermin and Wör, particularly, AXIS OF ADVANCE was never meant to be a redundant failsafe; ?Purify? stamped the seal of finality, of the cycle complete.
Onward we march, leaving this shell.
Hail the End?
1998-2008. 10/09/2008:
 The new album of PHAZM - 'Cornerstone Of Macabre' - is out now in CD Version .  The split album of BLACK WITCHERY / ARCHGOAT - 'Desecration and Sodomy' - is out now in Gatefold LP Version .
