Factory delays and perfectionism caused three new Nortfalke releases within one month time – but so be it. The new full length album “Kauntloft” is available on CD. And out now, two splits with exclusive songs and released on limited vinyl LP:

Nortfalke / Cimerion – “The congregation of wandering flames“ (split LP)
Dense synthesizer soundscapes, magical shiny highs leads and highs with lots of air, uncanny dark low bombasticism. Fourty minutes of dark yet adventurous beautiful analogue musical pictures from Nortfalke (The Netherlands, also Dunatters, Salacious Gods, Kjeld) and Monarque (Canada, also Sanctuaire, Monarque, Forteresse). Released by Heidens Hart.

Nortfalke / In Days Of Old – “Ghemenen ummelanden“ (split LP)
Two dungeon synth projects from The Netherlands. Recorded and mixed over a couple of months with immense focus on details. Almost 45 minutes of adventurous and humble dark synth music. Envision passing stars in the sky… Behold rolling fog obscuring forests and mountain tops… Ambient synth melodies and atmospheres, hymnic choirs and slow percussion. This split LP is self-financed by the bands.

Mayhemic Truth – “In Memoriam” 2LP / CD
Classic German epic black metal available again on vinyl and CD. This ultimate reissue is an expansion of the original Iron Pegasus LP/CD edition. Including all original audio and artwork from that edition, but with added songs and photos. This version also includes the “Promo ’94” as requested by the band, for a total of 65 minutes of ultimate epic and raw celtic hymns with heavy emotional atmosphere.

Mortifera – “Complainte d’une agonie céleste” MLP
Bleak French raw black metal full of disgust and pessimism. The 2003 debut EP for the first time on vinyl. A primeval and unpolished piece of death-glorifying negativity. Rotten black metal with agonized, inhuman lamentations and total necro sound. A legendary and much sought-after EP recorded by Noktu and Neige, unearthed from the Southern French sepulchres for a limited pressing on black and grey vinyl.

“Kauntloft” is by far the biggest project for Nortfalke. This full-length was written and recorded using over a dozen of different, unique synthesizers as well as several percussive and other instrument – and many months have gone into the careful mixing and mastering process.

Ultra harsh and abrasive krieg black metal. Influenced by bands like Beherit, Profanatica, Demoncy, Impaled Nazarene. Just under one hour of hammering machine gun drums, shrill guitars and pungent filth, not meant for delicate ears. “Blasphemous catechisms” compilation CD featuring demos and unreleased material from 2002-2004 out now. “Impalement” new t-shirt out now.

Well-known barbaric sound and chainsaw riffs from the Kings of Czech black metal are all there on this 7th full length album. “Masakr” is now released on CD format for the first time in Europe. Hand numbered and with 16-page booklet. This may be the bands most overlooked album. Ruthless and savage black metal butchery – no compromise, no mercy, no peace. Only raw war bloodshed and massacre from the Lučan antichristian horde!

Heidens Hart took over distribution of this title. CD now in stock, classic Evilfeast sound. Unholy medieval black art with Graveland vibe. This is truly invoking the ancient… Epic synthesizers and vocals, rawer sound than the later albums obviously – this is pure dark heathen worship… Original Obscure Abhorrence CD version, iIncludes Osculum Infame cover. Highest recommendation. Split with Uuntar only left on CD format, second press down to the last copies.

Ultimate bombastic and epic viking metal. This weapon of great power was in the making no less than twenty-five years. GARDE started as a side-project of A. (of Cultus, among many others), but the project was forgotten until the flame was reignited after inviting Dan Cap (Wolcensmen, Solstice, Gràb, ex-Winterfylleth) to contribute lead vocals – who did monumental work writing and recording the vocal melodies. CD, LP and t-shirt out now.

Pest returns with one last full length. Big was the shock when co-founder Mrok passed away in 2011, but inspiration was found a decade after and in his his death and rather than searching for a new drummer, founder Scum honoured the legacy of Pest and Mrok, and took up drums himself again. Combined with his and Atax’ trademark sounding riffs, as well as input from new member Brandt, the new album “Eternal nightmares” sounds really as if no time has passed since. The maniacal vocals from Mr. Blasphemy and Atax still cuts through your bones. The storm of riffs are trance-inducing yet ultra aggressive. All with the classic medieval weirdness to the sound that was already present on their demo and first albums. For Pest, innovation means retrogression.

The new album still fully recorded and mixed by the band themselves in the rehearsal room, just as 25 years ago. It doesn’t get more authentic than this. Out now on LP and CD formats. Also very limited re-stock from previous releases now available.

CD version from previous split LP with Cultus also out now.
