PROSANCTUS INFERI debut album coming this spring on HELLS HEADBANGERS!!!

COMING THIS SPRING: PROSANCTUS INFERI make their highly anticipated full-length debut with Pandemonic Ululations of Vesperic Palpitation. A bewitching epitaph to fallen warrior / drummer Antichristus, Pandemonic Ululations... retains their blackened barbarity of old but moves away from their earlier Profanatica worship toward a sound that's inscrutably, idiosyncratically unique.

Aldaaron – Nous Reviendrons Immortels (2010)

cover

After a furious intro track you brace your-self for another raw and brutal Black Metal release but as you keep listening to “Nous Reviendrons Immortels” you find that there is more to Aldaaron than just raw Black Metal.

The band style can be compared to a mixture of Himinbjørg, Mithotyn, and other Pagan/ Viking Metal bands but adding their own raw Black Metal elements to the mix.

Sectioned – Purulent Reality (2010)

cover

Hailing from England we get Sectioned, a Death Metal band that takes us back to the glory days of the genre. “Purulent Reality” is being released by Paragon Records and showcases a very mature sounding band that can play a mean combination of Swedish and American Death Metal.

Featuring 7 songs and 43 minutes of music, “Purulent Reality” has longer than average songs for a DM release. But the band pulls them off by featuring a vast array of riffs and catchy solos. The overall old-school sound of the band is one of the most appealing features of Sectioned.

Ptahil - Ortus (2010)

cover

We are usually very weary of releases that feature two songs and 30 minutes of music. Unless they are Funeral Doom Metal releases or Ambient releases it usually means two things: 1) They suck so bad that our ears will bleed from listening to them at least 3 times, or 2) They are very good and get you completely involved in the atmosphere created by the band. Ptahil’s “Ortus” falls under number 2, from start to finish you are hooked and taken aback by a ritualistic Black Metal experience.

The atmosphere created by the Satanists behind Ptahil is unparalleled to any other Black Metal release we have heard in years. While the music is simple and somewhat repetitive, it creates a hypnotic trance that will transport you to a different place in moments. We don’t even notice these repetitive elements until we only listen to parts of songs, as a whole they are part of the experience behind “Ortus”.

Windfaerer – Glory Bound (2009)

cover

Today we find ourselves reviewing the 2 song demo of Windfaerer, an American band that plays a very interesting sounding Pagan/Folk Metal. And the only problem we find about this demo is that is too short.

The band hailing from New Jersey, has a very polished style and when they release their first full-length (which is on the works now) will surely take the scene by surprise. The songwriting for both songs is very well alternated with mid-tempo passages to blazing fast sections.
