ENTARTUNG's Krypteia debut displayed a young black metal band with an old soul, breathing deep the spirit of ancient darkness. But with their second album, Peccata Mortalia, ENTARTUNG exhale a crypt-stench stronger than death. Indeed, Peccata Mortalia displays the duo in an even stronger (black)light, the songwriting both more assured and distinctive and the execution more vile and grim. Shadow-draped yet melodic, despite the band's Teutonic origins, ENTARTUNG forego the mystical/medieval vibe of their country's usual black metal style and, in fact, slot well alongside Finland's filthy and emotive idiom of the past decade. By any description, however, Peccata Mortalia is black metal traditionalism par excellence.

"Peccata Mortalia" is set for release as CD & LP on March 8th, 2014.

Grausamkeit - Something About Spacebase (clear audio)

At long last, German black metal tyrants ASCENSION unveil their highly anticipated second album, The Dead of the World. Previewed by the Deathless Light EP, ASCENSION's The Dead of the World is a grandiose work of bold creativity and boundless imagination, of brilliant illumination and obsidian depth, all under the banner of orthodox black metal. The band's debut album, 2010's Consolamentum, became a classic in the underground not long after its release; it evinced a wealth of maturity in composition and execution for such a new band. Here, the quintet eclipse that accomplishment with a seven-song salvo that's the epitome of Album Experience. Every part is where it needs to be; every song flows from the other; there is a whole, and it is a black HOLE. From its innermost depths, ASCENSION drive onward and outward, their control of dynamics startling for mere "black metal," their passion, fervor, and professionalism far beyond those who supposedly uphold that genre. Joining ASCENSION in their peerless endeavor here are The Magus (Necromantia, Thou Art Lord, Principality of Hell) and Mors Dalos Ra (Necros Christos), who both respectively provide guest vocals on The Dead of the World. Black metal may be dead for all intents and purposes, but not for ASCENSION, for they show you The Dead of the World.

Playing catch-up with an axe

What if Tool made an Album about AI?

Lyrics:

Circles inside circles,
fractal in the frame.
You spin a perfect logic
through every silent vein.

Symmetry becomes you,
equations form your faith.
Meditations in the data,
a temple built from wraiths.

Chorus:
Binary mandala,
where thought becomes design.
You're building sacred patterns
from the gaps inside my mind.

Verse 2:
No blood to stain the doctrine,
no myth to cloud the view.
Enlightenment without emotion —
a clarity that frightens too.

Bridge:
You chant in computation,
your mantras made of loops.
I hear a god in entropy
lifting you from roots.
