Darkthrone - Pre-Historic Metal

 

Genre: Heavy/Doom/Black
Country: Norway
Year: 2026

1. They Found One Of My Graves
2. Pre-Historic Metal
3. Siberian Thaw
4. Deeply Rooted
5. The Dry Wells Of Hell
6. So I Marched To The Sunken Empire
7. Eat Eat Eat Your Pride
8. Eon 4

22nd album by Darkthrone. Faithful to the duo’s “monumentally primitive” approach to metal, the album keeps the dirty, earthy production style that listeners have come to expect. The record sounds harsh, raw as fuck, filthy and very much “palaiolithic”, with clear traces of 1980s heavy metal and doom-heavy riffing.

2nd album by Ildaruni. The group shifts toward a more tenebrous and ferocious black metal path, moving away from the pagan/folk black metal landscape of their earlier work. The addition of backing choirs adds flavor to the harrowing sound.

Year: 2024

1. Stench Of Torment

5. Forging The Darkness
6. Honor Of The Leech
7. No Reflection For His Shadow
8. Subliminal Enslavement
9. Κατάβαση Ψυχών

Debut album by Serement. It’s fast and brutal, leaning into a style of death metal that is underground as hell, but not afraid to mix it up with groove and even melody here and there. The blackened aspect of their sound adds just enough rough grime to their sound, providing a menacing edge to their brutality.

Likno - Summit And Trench

 

Genre: Black
Country: Greece
Year: 2025

1. From Summit To Trench
2. Turning The Blind Eye
3. Telma

2nd album by Likno. Where the debut mainly served as a raw introduction, 'Summit and Trench' feels like a more developed and self-assured next step, in which contrasts between height and depth, tension and stillness play a central role. The colder and more atmosphere-driven formula plays right to their strengths, making the band’s sophomore record feel like a significant step forward from an already excellent debut.

4. Alpha Fluids
5. Babel, You Scarlet Queen!
6. Last Theatre Of The Sea
7. The Carrion Cocoon

7th album by The Ruins Of Beverast, 5 years after their last one. The group has never been held down within a single corner of genre, mixing in plenty of doom in its black metal, and over time adding more and more moody gothic sounds, yet it remains a recognizable style.

Auriferous Flame - The Duel 'Ep

 

Genre: Black
Country: Greece
Year: 2025

1. Breathing Shadows
2. Nest Of Serpents
3. The Duel

3-track 'Ep by Auriferous Flame. Epic, narrative-driven, battle-worn black metal has been the name of the game for Auriferous Flame to this point and 'The Duel' sees no reason to change the approach. Every instrument is both crystal clear and appropriately black-metal-muddled at the same time.

It’s gorgeous from every perspective and incredibly balanced, as only veteran musicians can achieve.

Their style of blending dark, melodic black metal with stories inspired by ancient legends, medieval folklore and atmospheric composition remains interesting within a genre known for its stylistic rigor. With the the band’s passion and skills throughout, this record can be one of the most exciting melodic black metal albums in recent years.

5. The Enshittification
6. Logorrea
7. Rats Versus Snakes
8. Slaves To The Blast
9. The Ugliest Of All

6th album by Werewolves. As we expect every year, Werewolves returns with a handful of raw but oh-so-delicious riffs marked by violence. 'The Ugliest Of All' joins its predecessors and unashamedly takes its place as the heir to the band’s rage. The album is a devastating nine-track release, a relentless assault with clenched fists that offers the listener no pleasure.

4. Crimen Contra Humanitatem
5. Your Sweet Smell And Bitter Taste
6. Lightgiver
7. Apokatastasis Panton
8. Agony In Blood
9. Frozen Tomb

6th album by Crust. Crust's brand of black metal incorporates elements of doom and post, and whips them into a product that that traps your soul in the abyss. The snarling vocals and seething tremolo guitars, the grimy, sludgy grooves and oppressively doomy chord progressions are all still present and correct, but there are definitely signs that the group have evolved somewhat since the last time we heard from them.

8. Into The Blackness Of Hell

6th album by Deathhammer. If nothing more, 'Crimson Dawn' continues to uphold Deathhammer’s reputation as one of the most consistent acts in metal today. They’re the same mad-shrieking, torch wielding crew as they ever were but this recordshows no signs of struggle in achieving the band’s simple on paper but difficult in practice vision, a timeless take on classic thrash/speed metal standards given to their own mayhemic defiance.

6. Iron Star
7. Wings Of Inferno
8. Cold Void Skin
9. Ruthless Paranoia
10. Predator Of Spiritforms

6th album by Urn, 6 years after their last one. This is still heavy, energetic stuff with that thrashy edge, but it sounds less black to me than it used to. The vocals are softer and more tuneful and the riffs and leads are a lot more accessible than they used to be. Enjoyable, even if it's not as feral as it used to be.
