This diabolical team of musicians whose prolific efforts in the underground death metal world are impossible to ignore are giving us more!\u003cbr\u003e\nFrom the earliest moments of carnal doom that give a potent sense of dread, building into a swing of putrefying brutality, dragging fleshy tendrils across whomever is misfortunate enough to wander the catacombs in which these sounds dwell: ANATOMIA bring their very unique and recognizable sound to the A-side, which is as unhinged as usual, showcasing their extremely tight musical abilities in all of their raw, indigestible splendor. From long, sepulchral passages to pulverizing assaults of brutality, there is no predicting the maniacal malice that lies ahead; at any given moment, all could give way to something even more crazed, warped, and brutal. The initiated shall know already that the atmosphere of ANATOMIA’s music is absolutely flawless, and those yet to learn will be greeted by something truly haunting, a spectral cacophony of dirty-yet-immersive, graven musicianship that creeps and crawls with an elegance yet retains all of the unpleasantness you could hope for.\u003cbr\u003e\nFlipping over and UNDERGANG land insanely heavy blows from the get-go.

Flowing from the spectral soundscapes of ANATOMIA, this is a much more direct, in-your-face approach that is welcome and yet doesn’t detract from the ambient horrors of the split. Chugging violently through three tracks of carnage and debauchery, these titans of trench-foot-inducing extremity will punish you with some of their nastiest material to date that contorts into a spasming opera of filth. Like choking on mud, there is little respite or chance of escape - just more drowning layers of rot to descent upon you.\u003cbr\u003e\nThis is not just a misshapen, flimsy stitching-together of two bands. This is a statement of truly barbaric, savage, and putrescent underground death metal from two of the leading forces, standing with integrity above all trends and so-called movements, playing the most morbid music one could hope for in tandem. Prepare to be buried alive by the grotesqueries on display as ecstatically hideous death metal does what it does best and transports you to the underworld.

By the time they had started developing material for their first 7\"EP, Up through the Linear Shades (1993), they would easily fit the tag avantgarde metal, being among the very first bands in the underground at the time to draw inspiration from progenitors of said genre such as Celtic Frost (particularly Into The Pandemonium), as well as a vast range of non-metal music.\nOn their second official release, the mini-cd Longing for Scarlet Days (1994), Beyond Dawn reached their avantgarde metal peak and would quickly abandon this style in favour of a more gothic \/ doomy direction. This rapid development would be typical for Beyond Dawn, who no more than a year later would release their full-length debut Pity Love (1995), by many regarded a gothic doom masterpiece. Consequently, for the rest of their career, they would never release the same album twice, much like fellow countrymen Dødheimsgard or Ulver.\nThis release chronicles the years 1992-94 in the history of Beyond Dawn, focusing on their avantgarde metal phase. Coupling the Longing for Scarlet Days mini-album with the very first EP, Up through the Linear Shades, and including a track recorded at the same time as the EP, this LP is a perfect snapshot of the early days of one of Norway's most unique bands.","brand":"Beyond Dawn","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":47087584510197,"sku":"DUPLO83LP","price":39.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0756\/1986\/0725\/files\/original_ba359730-dc24-4fc7-b4d9-18c838aa2a19.jpg?v=1759458378"},{"product_id":"broder-skarpretterfossilet-mc","title":"Broder – Skarpretterfossilet MC","description":"\u003cp\u003eThird album by Danish blackened death metal sludge duo BRODER.

Swearing by the gods of old, the North London veterans further hone their unique blend of old school extreme metal.\n“After spending a month on the road with Mystifer, we are a closer-knit unit than ever before. There’s a good reason for this being the longest standing line-up in our fifteen-year existence. The entire band lived and breathed this record in the months preceding the studio, and the performances delivered by each member are testament to their dedication to untarnished extreme metal of old,” says founding member Sadistik Wrath. “'Forked Tongues' is a vicious and concerted tribute to folly of mankind. In these godless days of Sodom, craven idols are in their element, wheeling and dealing, beckoning you to follow their treacherous causes. The apocalyptic legends of ancient Greece read like unholy divination… and it is from them that we drew the subject matter for the record.”\nRecorded, mixed, and mastered by Tom Dring at Southport’s Vagrant Recordings, Forked Tongues showcases a rawer side of CRAVEN IDOL, aiming to bottle the band’s live ferocity.\nShunning the trends and genre-specifications poisoning the scene, CRAVEN IDOL pay homage to a wide variety of bands, including Bathory, Mercyful Fate, Master’s Hammer, Manilla Road, Gospel Of The Horns, Sodom, Satan, Poison (Ger), Candlemass, Mystifier, Cirith Ungol, and Absu, to name just a few.\nThe album takes on the anomalous tale of the serpentine beast Typhon, the fiercest of all Titans in Greek Mythology. The ‘Father of Monsters’ is said to have challenged Zeus to do battle for cosmic supremacy, ultimately succumbing to the Olympian’s might, and facing imprisonment beneath Mount Aetna. According to legend, the sporadic eruptions of the volcano are due to the enduring wrath of Typhon.\nInstead of merely reciting an ancient myth, FORKED TONGUES acts as sequel to the original tale, with Typhon returning to settle old scores. The power of the Olympians has waned over millennia, with their ambitions tamed by excess and indulgence. Meanwhile, the misguided worship of a fictitious Golden Age has facilitated Typhon’s escape. A corpulent Zeus now faces the hundred-headed monstrosity once again.\nForked Tongues is a cautionary tale, warning of all craven idols.\nThe monumental artwork, courtesy of master painter Eliran Kantor (Sodom, Incantation, Testament, Atheist) displays a scene of our world on the brink of total devastation.\n“Peculiarly enough, the original front cover concept was inspired by Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai, more specifically the woodblock print (Ukiyo-e) ‘The Dragon of Smoke Escaping From Mount Fuji’. Completed 1849, the work is through to have been one of Hokusai’s last.\nIn Kantor’s piece, Shizuoka is replaced by Sicily, Fuji by Aetna, and the dragon by Typhon. The back cover also loosely pays homage to ‘The Great Wave off Kanagawa.'\" ","brand":"Craven Idol","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47087608070389,"sku":"DDR243CD","price":24.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0756\/1986\/0725\/files\/original_8cc3812c-ea95-4b15-971c-d37fe42d3ce1.jpg?v=1759458516"},{"product_id":"craven-idol-towards-eschaton-cd","title":"Craven Idol – Towards Eschaton CD","description":"Debut album from the UK's Craven Idol.
