Hammerheart

Hostilia: The curse of Khamun 2026 [CD]

The high priests of sinister doom return with "Evil Remains", their sixth album and first for Hammerheart Records.

Ravenous Swedish Death Metal! Heavy, raw, melodic and mercilessly dark! Hailing from Stockholm, Sweden, the breeding ground of Entombed, Dismember and Unleashed, Xorsist carry the city's Death Metal legacy with conviction. Rooted in the raw buzz saw tradition of early '90s Swedish Death Metal yet sharpened with modern bite, the band have steadily risen through the underground with "Deadly Possession" (2022) and "At the Somber Steps of Serenity" (2023). While their earlier recordings honored the path that defined the classic Stockholm sound, "Aberrations" marks a decisive step forward, eclipsing everything that came before it and presenting a clearer, more defined expression of the band's musical vision. With this new chapter, Xorsist continue to carry the Swedish Death Metal torch into darker territory!

Master strikes again! Delivering old school Death Metal at its purest! Master has always been a musical definition of anachronism for many of us and rightfully so. No matter which trend is or was hip, Paul Speckmann stretched off his middle-finger to that and did his usual mixture of Death Metal and intense Thrash Metal, that created a new genre in the late 80's. And now, in 2026, he is going to release his 16th (!) full-length album "Among the Seeds of Death". And it is a great continuation of all things Master, after the strong "Saints Dispelled" album from 2024.

Cult Scandinavian Folk Metal! Otyg's demo recordings "Galdersång Till Bergfadern" remastered from the original tapes! The third and final Otyg demo stands as the last hushed whisper before the band stepped into the light. Recorded in 1997 and never officially released at the time, "Galdersång Till Bergfadern" laid the foundation for much of what would become "Älvefärd", several tracks were later re-recorded for that full-length. Here the melodies are ancient, the rhythms untamed, and the group already locked in on their own language of Scandinavian Folk and Metal. You can hear the roots of violin, flute and lute dancing with guitar and voice, all pushing forward into territory only Otyg could define. Remastered in 2025 by Vintersorg, this re-issue keeps the raw edge intact while giving the recordings the clarity they deserve.
