New album from Zakaz – an ominous presence in the Icelandic black metal scene since 2012. Reinscription of the Primordial Sigil. With Merki Sólar, ZAKAZ emerges not merely as a musical entity, but as a vessel of ancestral recursion: an invocation of symbols buried beneath millennia of cultural sediment. These are not songs in the modern sense but ritualistic utterances drawn from the liminal space where proto-Norse intuition bleeds into pre-linguistic gnosis. The title, “Merki Sólar” (The Mark of the Sun), evokes one of the oldest sacred images known to man: the solar mark etched into bone, stone, and mind. In the hands of ZAKAZ, the sun is a pure encapsulation of ancient memory, a contrast to cultural decay, a beacon lost in the fog of spiritual entropy. Here, the solar sign is refracted through a lens of psychospiritual collapse, revealing ancient truths long obscured by modern neuroses. ZAKAZ does not reconstruct the past.

Mistra: Waltz of Death [Vinyl 7"]

Manual for Dying is the new 10-track album from LA-based ‘snuff pop’ pioneers Patriarchy — a fusion of industrial metal, dark pop, and club music. It delivers high-impact dance tracks, emotionally charged ballads, and driving industrial dirges — all fueled by mastermind Actually Huizenga’s eternal refusal to choose between beauty and brutality, romance and rage, and ultimately… art and life. The majority of the album was produced by Twin Shadow, and it marks a sonic leap from the band’s earlier lo-fi, analog aesthetic into a more crisp and modern form — with sharp synth production, hard-hitting drums, and hooks that lodge deep in your gills. You can be pulled deep into its themes if you want to — but it also stands as a great record to simply dance and scream to. For fans of: Crystal Castles, Nine Inch Nails, Peaches, HEALTH, Goldfrapp, IC3PEAK + + +

Robec is the solo project of Marius T. Røbech, former member of Ocean of Lotion, based in Bergen, Norway. Through years of sonic explorations in different places and spaces, the former guitar player found the soundscapes of pulsating synthesizers combined with repetitive grooves and twangy guitars, making it an interesting place to explore in the grander space of the prog rock world. The forest is too loud is an instrumental album that explores expansive soundscapes shaped by restless rhythms and mesmerizing bass lines. Twangy guitars and spacious synths create a cinematic atmosphere, while, true to classic prog rock style, the extended tracks shift from quiet ambiences to epic leads. This album is a journey through sonic exploration and diverse genre inspirations, offering a complete and immersive listening experience. For fans of Jaga Jazzist, Ola Kvernberg, Pink Floyd, elephant9 + + +
