SOMNIATE - New Album "We Have Proved Death" out now via Lavadome Productions - Full Stream available
 The sophomore full-length of Czech Black Metallers SOMNIATE, entitled "We Have Proved Death", is out now via Lavadome Productions!
You can check it out in its entirety at these locations: https://youtu.be/n7SmuIkKRlo +++ https://lavadome.bandcamp.com/album/we-have-proved-death
Thematically the album is based on the utopian short book "In Watermelon Sugar", written in 1964 by Richard G. Brautigan (1935-1984), and animates the unearthly beauty and earthly terror of the future.
Magical realism fuses with the black art, telling a story through blast beats, aggression and melancholy, shrouded in both clarity and dirt.
A psychedelic mixture of harmony and dissonance, both unpolished and elegant; black metal visions from the realm behind our eyelids.
Mixed and mastered by V. Santura (courtesy of Triptykon / Dark Fortress).
Tracklist:
Act I. I Am Here and You Are Distant
Act II. A Lamb at False Dawn
Act III. The Statue of Mirrors
Act IV. Black Soundless Sugar (Video)
Act V. Non-You
Act VI. We Have Proved Death (Video)

AGELESS SUMMONING - Debut Album "Corrupting The Entempled Plane" via Dark Descent Records - Details and Trackstream
 Dark Descent Records has announced the debut album of UK's Death Metallers AGELESS SUMMONING!
"Corrupting The Entempled Plane" will be released on July 21st 2023 on LP, CD, tape and digitally.
A first track entitled "Epoch of Souls" is streaming at this location: https://youtu.be/myvJEPdJ1Bk
"AGELESS SUMMONING was inspired by the otherworldly death metal of Steve Tucker era Morbid Angel and the discord of Immolation. We try to emulate the sludgy malevolence and desolate atmospheres of the likes of 'Gateways To Annihilation' and 'Here In After'", declares vocalist Ali Lauder. "We felt that the unique atmosphere and mythos conjured by that slower-paced, brutal, and hypnotic style were underappreciated and overlooked, and we didn't know of many bands doing things in that vein, so we thought we'd try it ourselves."
Whilst admiration of the US American masters is unquestionable, AGELESS SUMMONING display a jaw-dropping level of originality in their approach to the sub-genre.
Featuring members of such long-running U.K. acts as Of Spire & Throne, Haar, Úir, Scordatura, and Abyssal, the band has several combined decades of desecration under their belts. Wrapped in one of the most stunning and sinister Paolo Girardi artworks in recent memory, "Corrupting The Entempled Plane" is not to be missed.
Tracklist:
01. Usurper of the Void
02. Descent from the Infinite
03. Epoch of Souls
04. Among the Worms
05. Corrupting the Entempled Plane
06. Incarnate Nothingness
07. Toward the Fractal Absolute
08. Retribution Eternal
09. Invocation
10. Salvation in Ash
