We’re proud to announce the vinyl repress of Machukha’s powerful debut album "Mochari"! Now available on blade bullet vinyl. Limited to 300 copies. Click on the link in the comment section to order.

Machukha blends post-black metal, emotional hardcore, and punk, forging a sound as raw and human as the experiences that inspire it. The band’s members come from diverse musical, social, and cultural backgrounds — and through mutual understanding and collaboration, they’ve built a creative process rooted in one shared purpose: to express what it means to retain humanity in a harsh world.

Mochari is an album about resilience — a meditation on the human capacity to endure, to withstand atrocities, and to continue surviving day by day. Frontwoman Natalya sings exclusively in her native Ukrainian, channeling genuine anguish through her voice. Each song becomes a cathartic act of surrender: embracing pain, learning to release it, and finding strength in vulnerability.

The first CD pressing of Wolvennest – Procession has sold out! Thank you all for the massive response! A repress is expected around November 17, and pre-orders are now open. Check the comment section for the link. We still have the black and solid purple LP variants in stock.

Not convinced yet? Be sure to check the review by New Noise Magazine in the comments.

"It’s no exaggeration to say that Wolvennest is a borderless band—yet one with a strong, unmistakable identity. Once again, they prove it brilliantly. Like a spiritual, metaphysical, even supernatural experience, Wolvennest leads us on an inner journey to the deepest corners of ourselves—but beware, it’s not without risk." - Vincent Bouvier

After a decade of ritual creation, four full-length offerings, and a trail of EP's, live rites, and collaborations, Wolvennest return from the shadows with their most ambitious work yet: "Procession" – a double album which is out and available today.

Available on CD digipack, LP (including a limited edition), and digital formats. There's a slight delay regarding the special edition. We'll keep you posted about this.

Forged from the fires of occult doom, psychedelia, black metal, and rock, "Procession" is not merely an album – it is a ceremony. Eighty minutes of unrelenting atmosphere where walls of guitars, the spectral cry of a theremin, and sacred projections summon an offering to Death itself.

Once again mixed and mastered by Déhà at Blackout Studio (Brussels), "Procession" begins in warmth and ascends into death and despair – the soundtrack of our extinction.

The album features a haunting guest appearance by Hekte Zaren (Adaestuo) on "Tarantism".

Following the release, Wolvennest will embark on a European tour alongside Dolch and Double Darkness.

Who's ready to enter the weekend with severe neck pain caused by excessive headbanging? If that's your plan, good news, Modder - Destroying Ourselves For A Place in The Sun is out TODAY.

Musically speaking, Modder has once again pushed the boundaries for themselves with this new batch of songs. Building on the previous and widely praised album 'The Great Liberation Through Hearing', the new work is perhaps an even bigger statement. And in doing so, the combination of 'Sludge' (and by extension all sorts of metal variants) with the even more refined electronic Psy elements comes awfully close to a perfect symbiosis!

It's in other news, HEAVY.

Be sure to pick up your copy instore, or order the cd and/or 2 vinyl variants through our online store ( local pickup and shipping possible).

'Procession' will be released on October 17. Available on black vinyl, solid purple vinyl, purple marble / special edition vinyl (sold out), CD and digital formats.

“Our previous work was a side A/side B journey, but we all felt that returning to a longer format meant erasing boundaries altogether. Procession is an all-or-nothing offering – it begins with warmth and ascends into death and despair.” - Corvus

🤸RELEASE ALERT: Baljuw-Dinsterwenk (Ltd CD/Digital).
Check the comments to take a listen and/or order!👇

Out now on Icarus.fm + Consouling Sounds.

‘Dinsterwenk’ emerged from several intense recording sessions during which the duo deepened their palette of sounds and carefully built their music, layer upon layer, into an intimate yet intoxicating trip, hesitating between jazz, folk, ambient and warm electronica.

Baljuw is the improvisation project of Matthias Dewilde (Nagløed, Matterhorn Well) and Nicolas Van Belle (Suura, Ever Present, Sarcastic Fringehead). Although the two musicians were longtime friends, it still took until 2023 for the two to begin “playing” together, stimulated by a shared interest in sound, texture and transformation. A series of improvisation sessions and some tasteful performances (including at the Ghent Citadelic festival) followed, which only stimulated the hunger for more. Slowly the idea grew to translate the energy and excitement of those jams into a record.

For fans of: Fennesz, Oren Ambarchi, Biosphere, Skúli Sverrisson

Baljuw is:
Nicolas Van Belle: guitar + electronics
Matthias Dewilde: fender rhodes + electronics

🚨Out today: YODOK III - Nidarosdomen

At the heart of Trondheim rises Nidarosdomen: Scandinavia’s great cathedral, the northernmost Gothic monument of the Middle Ages, built upon the resting place of Saint Olav. Within its stone walls
breathes the colossal Steinmeyer organ, 9,600 pipes of air and thunder. A space made not only for prayer, but for ritual.

When YODOK III was invited to perform in this sacred colossus, the idea of summoning Petra Bjørkhaug to the Steinmeyer organ arrived like an inevitability. To let the cathedral itself speak through her hands, to allow its immensity to swell and entwine with YODOK
III’s shifting tides of sound.

As a label it's sometimes hard to stay neutral in a way about releases but every moment we hear this one, we are still equal parts amazed and fascinated.

Nidarosdomen is out today on cd!

In anticipation of the new YODOK III album Nidarosdomen being released tomorrow, September 19th, we already received a review from the kind people at Avant Music News that perfectly describes what you're about to hear tomorrow.

You can read the full review below, but most of all, listen to the album tomorrow. This album was recorded as a 54 minute improvised set at Nidarosdomen Cathedral in Trondheim. And the main thing about that cathredral is the organ that consists out of 9600 pipes that create vibrations that are so well used on this recording.

YODOK III is the moniker of the exciting collaboration between Norwegians Tomas Järmyr (also Zu, Barchan), Kristoffer Lo and the Belgian minimal ambient artist Dirk Serries (also Microphonics, Fear Falls Burning, VidnaObmana, …).

What you get is an experimentation of post-rock, ambient, improvised jazz, soundscapes but most of all a musical spirital journey that will leave you stunned.

Nidarosdomen is out tomorrow on cd!

YODOK III is something of a catch-all outfit, part free improvisation, part post-rock, part ambient, and a few other parts. The group consists of Tomas Järmyr (drums), Kristoffer Lo (tuba), and Dir…
