LABEL

Second full-length album by Ukrainian Melodic Doom/Dark Metal band.
The first official release of Ex Animo is a well-balanced mix of Dark, Doom and Symphonic Metal.
Album features tracks from "Souglass" EP accompanied by the five completely new tracks.
Aggressive, but still melodic sound, dark atmosphere and thoughtful lyrics - it is the result of several years of experiments inspired by the genius of Anathema, Moonspell, The Gathering, Black Sun Aeon, October Tide, Swallow The Sun and Paradise Lost.
Neverday - is the moment when a man will finally be able to throw away the burden of fake and imposed values, listen to his inner self and realize why he came in this world... this is the day that never comes.
Whether you are haunted by the ghosts from the past or suppressed by the fear of the future, you will find a song that echoes in you!
Limited Edition includes Acryl Magnet.

The third full-length studio album by legendary German Thrash Metal band.
Exumer has finally exhumed themselves from the dead and have decided to get back into the studio to unleash a long-awaited third album. This is the band's first full-length album since 1987, after 24 years of silence!
Combining punishing production with aggressive song writing, Exumer manage to capture the intensity and feel of the 1980s Thrash Metal gems while attaining modern sonic density.
Original vocalist Mem Von Stein makes a triumphant return, and is probably the best asset of this newish Exumer. He still has those solid, semi-clean Teutonic shouts 'n' shrieks in full order. Original guitarist Ray Mensh teams up with a new guy simply named HK. The bass of Tony Schiavo pops up to say hi now and again, while the boring drumming of Matthias Kassner pales when compared to the technicality and aggression of Syke Bornetto.
Album includes re-recording song "Fallen Saint" from cult debut album “Possessed By Fire” (one of the best albums in Thrash/Speed Metal history), as well as re-recording song "I Dare You" from the second album "Rising From The Sea".
CD includes 16-page booklet.
A musthave for every Thrash Metal maniac!!!

The second full-length album by Russian Melodic Black/Death Metal band.
Electric polarity between aggressiveness of Black Metal and melodics of instrumental experiments covered by poetic lyrics.
The second album has not lost the distinctive feature of the band - a bilingual lyrics, where original tunes intertwined in Russian and Ukrainian languages, maintaining the mystique of Gogol and soft lullabies melodiousness of folk songs. Poetry has a special place: melo-declamations, fragments of poems of the Silver Age era, joined together with melody of Ukrainian speech.
Fausttophel do not adhere to strict canons as part of its style and constantly experimenting with arrangements. However, in the album clearly heard the old-school sound of music, instead of the newfangled sound. All this contrasted to the aggressive blasts, powerful high-speed guitar riffs and avant-garde instrumental compositions.
The new album like its predecessor is eclectic - it generates special recognizable musical underscore of Fausttophel.
For fans of: Dissection, Edge Of Sanity, Emperor, Gates Of Ishtar, Dimmu Borgir, Hecate Enthroned, Old Man's Child, Rotting Christ, Opeth, etc.

First EP by Russian Melodic Black/Death Metal band.
After three full-length albums, this new release is very special for the band.
Last year brought a lot of bad news and took a lot of people with it into eternity. One of them was a friend and comrade of the band, the creator, leader and only permanent participant of the Ukrainian project Lunar Onlooker, Sergey Dmitrievich Semyan (Svaromir Golunsky), whose name is inextricably linked with the Poltava part of the history of Fausttophel, as well as the entire Metal community of that time.
Although there were no definite creative plans for Fausttophel for the beginning of this year, this sad event caused a sudden emotional impulse, which resulted in this release. "Ultimum Lupus" (The Last Wolf) is a tribute to Svaromir Golunsky.
Two of the tracks of the EP, "The Song of the Wolf" and "The Last Wolf", are written in the universe of "The People of the Great Fire" - a world created by the unbridled imagination of the poet. The third one is an interpretation of the song of Lunar Onlooker, "Гори, Полум'я, Відтінками Часу, Колір - Переможець Візьми!" (Mountains, Flame, Shades of Time, Color - Take the Winner!).
Fausttophel express their gratitude for the responsiveness and invaluable help of all those, who involved in the creation of this release, as well as everyone who supports their work. Stay Metal!

The fourth full-length studio album by Ukrainian Oldschool Melodic Death Metal band.
Music has become hevier, more brutal and faster. Although the team is still focused on the European Melodic Death Metal, it is now much less like their senior colleagues from Scandinavia than 5-10 years ago . Speedy riffs, break, guitar intro or solo and again speed drive... Each instrument took that place what is exactly most logical would take .
This album proves that musicians in the prime of life, and who knows, maybe after his formal declaration about split-up, Flying will again reunite, as they have already done once. Many fans are really waiting for this resurrection!
Mixed and masteried by Andy LaRocque (King Diamond, Death) at Sonic Train Studios (King Diamond, Evergrey, Hammerfall, In Flames, Lord Belial, Witchery and more).
CD includes 12 pages booklet.

The second ЕР by Ukrainian Melodic Death Metal band.
Forceout - without a doubt one of the best representatives of Ukrainian Melodic Death Metal scene. EP "Bloodtale" immersing you in the bloody reality of our world and give the story that more than one century cripples people.
The lyrics talks about how badly people treat each other, how weak people are not able to accept this reality, go to the actions that drove them mad, bullying their bodies, using drugs, engaging in self-destruction.
Musically, this bloody history is diluted by screaming and growling vocals, fast and melodic guitar solos, aggressive guitar riffs and strong drum's line.
"Bloodtale" strongly recommended for fans of: Children Of Bodom, Norther, Arch Enemy, Dark Tranquillity, In Flames and Hypocrisy, as well as for all those who love fast, melodic and aggressive music!!
