Guest Article by KT

The New Jersey area has spawned quite a few interesting bands in the past, I’m sure you know most of them, so I won’t bother mentioning any. Damonacy seems to be a somewhat overlooked band from the NJ area. Not a lot of people know the history, or the music for that matter, of this great band. In their brief existence, they released one demo, “From Within” (1991), and a 7”, “Therapeutic Morbidity” (1992), before calling it quits. How they never managed to get a deal is beyond me, as their brand of death metal still holds up to this day! Having tracked down Stan Zielinski (guitar), it was deemed necessary to ask about the band’s past. Read on…

we thank POWERMETAL.de for their excellent review of Damonacy Grotesque Treasures

DAMONACY - Grotesque Treasures:

Zugegeben: Ich hatte bis dato noch nie von dieser Truppe gehört, bin über diese Compilation aber umgehend zum Fan geworden. "Grotesque Treasures" ist in der Tat eine echte Schatztruhe, deren zahlreiche Goldstücke man als Liebhaber der ganz alten Schule definitiv erobern sollte ... . Mit 'Justice' und 'Crop' gibt es zudem noch zwei Liveaufnahmen aus den letzten Tagen der Band und somit auch einen schmucken Bonus, der bis dato noch nicht erhältlich war. (Björn Backes)

Formed from the ashes of Spawn of Possession, Retromorphosis reunites the Incurso-era lineup. But while Incurso was a relentless push toward hyper-technical extremity, Psalmus Mortis marks a return to their roots, slowing down just enough to embrace a sound more grounded in classic death metal, now infused with a strong atmospheric edge built on haunting synths and much more spacious, deliberate song structures.

For the latest scrum, we talk to Rob Miller, frontman of Tau Cross and the legendary Amebix, one of the first (if not the first) acts to blend hardcore punk and heavy metal and a huge influence on the then emergent extreme metal scene, cited as an inspiration by bands such as Na**lm Death and Neurosis. Our discussion goes through topics as diverse as the origins of Amebix in rural southern England, the influence of folk horror, the occult, ufology, totalitarianism and, of course, Rob’s work as a swordsmith and how it relates to his music.

The legend himself Henry Veggian of REVENANT with the Damonacy Grotesque Treasures CD and t Prince of Perversion t shirt.

What’s up everyone? Henry Veggian here with a special note of thanks to Nik Mikhl and Hessian Firm. They re-issued music from our old friends , a classic NJ underground band.

Together with Ripping Co**se, Human Remains, Immortal Vision and others, Damonacy torched many a stage along the Jersey Shore and beyond. Revenant enjoyed many nights blasting music (and getting blasted) with the guys in the band. We shared the stage and many good memories, back when hell was our playground.

If you dont know Damonacy, this is the perfect way to check them out via this official re-issue via Hessian Firm. And check out the killer shirt too!

p..s. Hey Stan Zielinski I’ve got my hat turned backward in memory of the late John Egan.

We’re proud to be working with Execrari on the CD release of their excellent Desolation Manifest. While our recent focus has been primarily on reissues, we’ve remained closely connected to the pulse of the underground, and we believe Execrari embodies some of the finest metal emerging from its depths.

Desolation Manifest delivers narrative-driven compositions that build toward massive climaxes and haunting conclusions. The riffcraft draws heavily from the second wave of black metal, but with a clear emphasis on distinctive, memorable melodies and some of the strongest vocal work in the genre today.

The CD edition will be released on August 29th, with pre-orders opening in the coming days.
The full album is available to stream now at the links below.

Over the last year or so, we’ve focused our full attention on reissuing some of the best hidden gems from the underground—a path we’re continuing as we roll out Endless Dismal Moan’s complete discography throughout the rest of the year. At the same time, we’re reopening the doors to the current underground and are now accepting submissions from newer bands that align with the mold and ethos of Hessian Firm. Submissions can be sent to [email protected]. We're excited to hear from bands who feel their music belongs alongside the vision we've been building.
