A first song, entitled "Vanish Beneath", is available at this location: https://youtu.be/u3r_FY9RfRk
The band states: „We’re just as excited about the new record now as we were when writing it. And it’s great to be working with a label that we admire in 20 Buck Spin. Burn in Many Mirrors is the best realisation to date of where we’re coming from and marks a new chapter in our saga of chaos.”
Tracklist:
1. Lunar Madness
2. Serpent's Coil
3. Fire In The Hills
4. Sulphuric Glow
5. Vanish Beneath
6. Streams Of Rapture (I, II, III)

DARK QUARTERER - Play the entire "Pompei" Album LIVE to support local theater
 On Saturday February 13th 2021, Italian Prog Metal Legend DARK QUARTERER will stream an exclusive show - featuring the entire "Pompei" album - on Bandcamp.
Find out more here: https://darkquarterer.bandcamp.com/merch/rising-from-the-silence
Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, their local theater shut its door almost one year ago. The band felt the urgency to support their local cultural institution and filmed their complete show in the empty theater.
DARK QUARTERER also started a crowdfunding campaign on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/donate/710790436279958/710810156277986/
Official band statement: "In this moment we feel it's extremely important to help and support our theaters and cinemas. For this reason we have recorded a show in the “Metropolitan Piombino” theater, here in our hometown. We played the entire “Pompei” album and will make the show available on Bandcamp for a minimum fee of €5. The full income will be donated to the Metropolitan. The theater's been closed for months now and risks to go out of business and be shut down permanently. We believe that - in this current situation - supporting and preserving culture is a priority, even more than ever before. And we wish to thank in advance all those who will help contributing our small "fund-raising" for our local theater."

Listen to "Anchoress In Furs" here: https://youtu.be/4-m2_YtMHEw
"The Thule Grimoires" are THE RUINS OF BEVERAST's 6th spawn in full-length and continue the sonorous wandering across anecumenical spheres that form up and embattle for the ever raging war against poisonous and verminous trespassers of human origin.

Tracklist:
1. Ropes Into Eden
2. The Tundra Shines
3. Kromlec'h Knell
