What a year it's been! 80% of the releases have been with new bands or those working with us for the first time and even so, we seem to have done okay with putting them on the map.

I've been working on the 2026 label sampler which is turning out to be quite promising. As can be expected, there's a good deal of diversity on it - bands both old and new are doing what they do best.

Nothing is obvious with this album : Death ? Doom ? Black ? It's a bit of everything, much more besides, and that's what makes it so powerful and captivating. A demanding but very promising debut album.

Earlier this year we put out this meticulous yet savage release of blackened death metal from the Turkish band #ShrineofDenial. Who remembers this one? It also boasts of a sublime artwork from Juanjo Castellano Rosado.
