Ageless Summoning - Epoch of Souls (2023) Dark Descent Records 2023-05-25 | "Epoch of Souls" is the third track off of the debut album from UK's Ageless Summoning. "Corrupting the Entempled Plane" will be released July 21st, 2023 via Dark Descent Records on CD/LP/CS and Digital formats.“Ageless Summoning was inspired by the otherworldly death metal of Steve Tucker era Morbid Angel and the discord of Immolation. We try to emulate the sludgy malevolence and desolate atmospheres of the likes of Gateways to Annihilation and Here In After,” declares vocalist Ali Lauder.A brief, but precise account of the hellscapes evoked by U.K.’s Ageless Summoning, whose debut album Corrupting the Entempled Plane is due out on Dark Descent Records.“We felt that the unique atmosphere and mythos conjured by that slower-paced, brutal, and hypnotic style were underappreciated and overlooked, and we didn't know of many bands doing things in that vein, so we thought we'd try it ourselves.”Whilst admiration of the US American masters is unquestionable, Ageless Summoning display a jaw-dropping level of originality in their approach to the sub-genre."Our goal has never been to just imitate what has come before, but we're not trying to hide our influences either. We include plenty of deliberate references, but we're also trying to develop our sound and continue the exploration of vast and desolate otherworlds.”Featuring members of such long-running U.K. acts as Of Spire & Throne, Haar, Úir, Scordatura, and Abyssal, the band has several combined decades of desecration under their belts.Wrapped in one of the most stunning and sinister Paolo Girardi artworks in recent memory, Corrupting the Entempled Plane is not to be missed.Order now:Dark Descent Recordsdarkdescentrecords.com/shopDark Descent Records Euro Storehttps://www.ddmsuo.eu/Dark Descent Records Band Campdarkdescentrecords.bandcamp.comDark Descent Records Facebookfacebook.com/DarkDescentRecordsAgeless Summoningfacebook.com/agelesssummoning
Thantifaxath - Mind of the Sun (2023) Dark Descent Records 2023-05-10 | The closing track from the long-awaited new album from Canada's Thantifaxath. "Hive Mind Narcosis" will be released June 2nd, 2023 on CD/LP/CS and digital formats through Dark Descent Records.Thantifaxath’s second full-length Hive Mind Narcosis is not only a giant leap for the band, but also for contemporary extreme metal as a whole. From its very first notes, there is a feeling of transcendence beyond genre… beyond its scene and peers.Previously dubbed avant-garde black metal, Thantifaxath surpasses such mundane press-tags, instead conjuring forth an expansive, discordant, and mind-altering brew that’s never just black, thrash, death, or doom metal psychedelia. Recorded entirely in-house by the band, Thantifaxath have tailored their sound to crushing perfection – a production so immense the listener daren’t move until the bitter end. Just like its music, Hive Mind Narcosis is a lyrical blend of two mutually conflicting ideals: “The album has two levels working in dichotomy with one another. On one level there is a strong resistance to something, and on the other there is a total acceptance of that same thing. Beyond that, we leave it open to your interpretation.”In every truly pioneering band’s career there is a moment when they set themselves apart from the pack and become an island. For Thantifaxath, Hive Mind Narcosis is that album.This unholy Canadian grail of contemporary black metal is due out via Dark Descent Records. Track list:1. Solar Witch2. Surgical Utopian Love3.

Artist Bahrull Marta was summoned to conjure the breath-taking artwork, whilst photographs by Alma Líf Þorsteinsdóttir adorn the inlay with visions of each offering.Úlfúð’s (pronounced “ool-wooth”, meaning animosity or hostility) were formed in early 2015 in Reykjavik, Iceland.

Hyperdontia - Deluded Dark Descent Records 2023-01-31 | Hyperdontia's new EP "Deranged" will be out March 15th through Dark Descent Records (CD/CS (US), Me Saco Un Ojo (vinyl) and Desiccated Productions (CS Europe). Danish / Turkish Death Metal titans Hyperdontia should not need any introduction. Their two full length albums, several EPs and couple of splits all testify to them being a band of the highest quality. As does their renowned tightness in a live setting. Now they are as “Deranged” as ever, as their new EP title suggests.Ripping in with a cacophony of putrid yet punctual instrumental ferocity and gnarly vocals, those who are new to this beastly underground entity will be greeted with not just aggression but absolutely masterful musicianship where every element is a carefully crafted weapon in the great arsenal. The bass guitar is otherworldly while the drums hammer with remorseless action. Meanwhile, Hyperdontia’s riffing is absolutely savage and the vocals sublimely sepulchral. Riveting, ruthlessly visceral and with dynamics aplenty to keep things unpredictable, there is no way anyone couldn’t be gripped by this masterfully menacing music. This is not some throwaway foursome of songs that weren’t good enough for an album, this is a dense and tight punch that in under 20 minutes will render you destroyed by truly impeccable Death Metal extremity. Unafraid of technicality, both in the riffing and lead work, along with the rhythm sections; there is no escaping just how monstrously skilled these guys are. That said, the brutality and barbarity is still there, this is not some flimsy polished gem of guitarists showing off. There is a soul and it devours all in the path, planting the most malicious sounds directly into your brain. One of the bands biggest strengths is incorporating plenty of shifts and new ideas rather than treading water, and to call this MLP exhilarating would be an understatement. The descent into madness is one that is a joy to experience, even if a tormenting one. So, if you like Death Metal and you are still reading this; wait no longer, get stuck into the latest offering by one of the underground's undeniably best artists.Dark Descent Recordsdarkdescentrecords.com/shopDark Descent Records Band Campdarkdescentrecords.bandcamp.comDark Descent Records Facebookfacebook.com/DarkDescentRecordsVideo by Dead Man - youtube.com/@deadman06/videos

Qrixkuor - Zoetrope Preview Dark Descent Records 2022-10-18 | Emerging from the serpentine susurrus left in the wake of last year’s monstrous two-part epic ‘Poison Palinopsia,’ Qrixkuor swiftly rise again to present a new EP entitled ‘Zoetrope’ - a single black arrow of death sent straight to the heart of the world - to be released on CD and CS format on Friday 18th November, joined in darkness again by Invictus Productions in Europe and Dark Descent Records in the USA, with vinyl format to follow in early 2023.Returning to Priory Recording Studios in Birmingham, England, to record, mix and master the track with the acclaimed Greg Chandler and with cover art this time contributed by the extraordinary Santiago Caruso, the textural approach of ‘Zoetrope’ dilates the divine eye of death metal to unmapped dimensions, dispatching a boot to the face of the idea that it’s marriage with symphonic timbres must be synonymous with floral harmonies backed by sterile production and performed by lifeless sample libraries. ‘Zoetrope’ is majestic, but any beauty has long since withered, and what remains is the discordant dirge of Qrixkuor’s cacophonous duet with the Orchestra of the Eternal Return. ‘Zoetrope’ is an ode to the terror of the cyclic infinite - the endless, silent scream of a mind that has wandered so far that it cannot return. The soul that burns on everlasting, each thousand-year journey the mere blink of an eye. There is no escape…Qrixkuor Facebookfacebook.com/qrixkuorDark Descent Recordshttp://www.darkdescentrecords.com/shopDark Descent Records Band Campdarkdescentrecords.bandcamp.comDark Descent Records Facebookfacebook.com/DarkDescentRecordsInvictus Productionsinvictusproductions.net

As a direct follow up to their acclaimed "Damnatio Ad Bestias", this will prove to be the band's darkest and most regal album yet. Tendrils of pure evil will engulf the listener with Satanic hymns that recall the greatest days of Deicide and Morbid Angel. Imprecation's own version of this venerable death metal tradition brings forth moments ranging from blistering and relentless to crushingly heavy, and all shall yield in their wake.Do not mistake this for "old school death metal"; this is death metal the way it was always intended - powerful, malevolent, and uncompromising. Give yourself over in the name of the Devil to experience Imprecation at the height of their powers.Dark Descent Recordshttp://www.darkdescentrecords.com/shopDark Descent Records Band Campdarkdescentrecords.bandcamp.comDark Descent Records Facebookfacebook.com/DarkDescentRecordsImprecation Facebookfacebook.com/imprecationtx666

Corpsessed - Relentless Entropy (Official) Dark Descent Records 2022-04-06 | Finland’s death metal pacesetters Corpsessed celebrate their 15th anniversary with the release of brand-new album Succumb to Rot via Dark Descent Records on April 22, 2022 on CD/CS and digital formats. Vinyl will come later in 2022 through Dark Descent (North America) / Me Saco Un Ojo (Europe) collaboration.The unholy union of Corpsessed and Dark Descent Records, that began with 2011’s highly acclaimed The Dagger & the Chalice EP, endures to this day. Both entities have since gone to transform the shape of the death underground as we know it, carving out a unique niche reserved only for true old school zealots. With a steady line-up of seven years in place, and a strong foothold on the top of the death metal hierarchy, Corpsessed deliver an arrogantly superior milestone of atmospheric old school death metal enveloped in existential dread.“One circle closes only for another to begin anew. This is the logical conclusion to Impetus of Death where the limits of human existence gives us a push to even do things in life (art being the pinnacle) - Succumb to Rot is the inevitable end where all things must eventually die and give into the relentless forces of entropy, and disintegrate into nothingness,” reflects guitarist M.M.The mentally distressing artwork by Vladimir 'Smerdulak' Chebakov also continues a tradition of exceptional Corpsessed album covers.Corpsessed is:J-P.M. - DrumsJ.L. - GuitarsM.M. - Vocals (backing), GuitarsN.M. - VocalsT.K. - BassDark Descent Recordshttp://www.darkdescentrecords.com/shopDark Descent Records Band Campdarkdescentrecords.bandcamp.comDark Descent Records Facebookfacebook.com/DarkDescentRecordsCorpsessedfacebook.com/Corpsessed
LVCIFYRE - Headless Rite Official Video Dark Descent Records 2022-03-25 | When the merciless and sinister essence of LVCIFYRE is channeled through the visual genius of DEHN SORA... Behold Headless Rite! "Headless Rite", taken from "The Broken Seal" by LVCIFYRE. Released on September 10th 2021 by Dark Descent / NoEvDia. Bandcamp: lvcifyre.bandcamp.com/album/thebrokensealDark Descent: darkdescentrecords.com/shopNoEvDia: noevdia.comRegarding The Broken Seal:Calculating and cruel, steeped in an ambiance of controlled fury, the nine tracks offer a jarring journey through the haunted recesses of the mortal mind. They are violent and hypnotic, but also bring out the occasional demented melody to keep things unpredictable. The lyrics - manic demonological verses that read as the album sounds - are roared, chanted, moaned and snarled with equal parts conviction and possession.All combined, this results in a soundscape which, whilst firmly rooted in the death metal tradition, is thoroughly imbued with a theatrical vibe and spiritual depth more associated with black metal. The Broken Seal is a unique fusion of musical worlds, concocted to plague the reality of flesh.#LVCIFYRE #TheBrokenSeal #DehnSora

Desolate Shrine - The Dying World (2022) Dark Descent Records 2022-02-04 | Finnish death metal trio DESOLATE SHRINE will reemerge from the crypts with their newest offering, Fires of the Dying World. Dark Descent Records will release the album on CD, cassette, and digital formats on March 25. Vinyl treatment coming later this year.At long last the successor to 2017’s Deliverance from the Godless Void has been unconfined from the clandestine vaults of Dark Descent Records. Aptly titled Fires of the Dying World, Finland’s DESOLATE SHRINE delivers 46 minutes of their unique death metal possession. The masterful craftsmanship on DESOLATE SHRINE’s fifth album is unmistakable; a true portrait of a band at their absolute peak.Yet be forewarned before indulging from the poison chalice of Fires of the Dying World for it ensnares its victims in an inescapable maelstrom of death and futility. Absolute surrender is the recommended response, as you descend into a claustrophobic trance that erases the world around and reaches into your very soul. When you awaken… nothing will be quite the same again… Let the fires burn.Cover art by L.L.Mastered by Damian Herring at Subterranean Watchtower StudiosDESOLATE SHRINE is:RS - VocalsMT - VocalsLL - All InstrumentsDark Descent Recordshttp://www.darkdescentrecords.com/storeDark Descent Records Band Campdarkdescentrecords.bandcamp.comDark Descent Records Facebookfacebook.com/DarkDescentRecordsDesolate Shrinefacebook.com/desolateshrine

LVCIFYRE - Gods Await Us Dark Descent Records 2021-08-30 | Dark Descent: http://www.darkdescentrecords.com/storeNoEvDia: noevdia.comDark Descent Records Bandcamp: darkdescentrecords.bandcamp.comCalculating and cruel, steeped in an ambiance of controlled fury, the nine tracks offer a jarring journey through the haunted recesses of the mortal mind. They are violent and hypnotic, but also bring out the occasional demented melody to keep things unpredictable. The lyrics - manic demonological verses that read as the album sounds - are roared, chanted, moaned and snarled with equal parts conviction and possession.All combined, this results in a soundscape which, whilst firmly rooted in the death metal tradition, is thoroughly imbued with a theatrical vibe and spiritual depth more associated with black metal. The Broken Seal is a unique fusion of musical worlds, concocted to plague the reality of flesh.#LVCIFYRE #TheBrokenSeal
