Erik's Lament
The Blessing Way
Symphonic black metal based on the Phantom of the Opera. It takes a narrative approach to song structure and utilizes numerous vocalists and vocal styles, giving it an almost manic sound, suitable for the source material.
The stylistic approaches vary from song to song, keeping each track unique and setting excellent atmospheres for the portions of the story being told.
It can be purchased from Bandcamp.

Heartstruck
Skinher
Bombastic heavy metal channeling all the best energy of the 80s, courtesy of some of the Hail Spirit Noir maniacs. Fueled by excellent guitar riffs, catchy vocals, and superb synths, this album sounds simultaneously like an old friend and a fresh take.
It can be ordered via the Bandcamp page!
Untergang
Urfaust
One last ride from the Dutch masters of ritualistic ambient black metal oddity. The album manages to mix the sounds of their earliest material with the stylistic growth they've achieved over the years. An excellent send off from a band who truly mastered their craft and consistently forged their own sound.
The album can be purchased digitally on Bandcamp with physical copies available from Van Records.

Ardor For Black Mastery
Auriferous Flame
Blasting Greek black metal at it's finest from Ayloss of Spectral Lore. This album is a full assault channeling the best of the classic Greek sound, yet remains firmly new and fresh. Everything from the cacophonous vocals, full-throttle drums, and excellent riffs creates a no-holds-barred listening experience, which is further improved by the stylistic flourishes of the occasional underlying synths and choral elements.
The album can be purchased from Bandcamp and True Cult Records.
