Abbey Ov Thelema is a side project of two members (Delgrast and Vilosof) of Nevaloth, an Atmospheric Black Metal band from Slovakia. They describe their sound as Transcendental Khaoblack Metal and their second full length is a good phrasing on what it does sound like. Chaotic, disarrayed, dark, and symphonic.
"Liber DCLXVI" is the dark mazed dissonance of a thousand grim bards playing over the screams of hell. Is an album not for the casual Black Metal listener or for any Black Metal listener at all. This album is for a listener who is into a chaotic Avant-garde, appreciates musical flexibility, or is into breaking boundaries with a juxtapose of Black Metal vocals, orchestra instruments, electronic keyboard tones, and blast beat drums. Some of the tracks, for example "De Ascensione Impeii Peccati", break into traditional Black Metal stylings but only for a few minutes. Other tracks are best described as musical chaos, with rapid time changes, genre mixing into Symphonic to Electronic arrangements, and vocals ranging from raspy Black Metal scream to an almost howling Death Metal grunts. The tracks average past the 8 minute mark and in those minutes you get a lot of music packed into your ears, even at some points getting a little dance drum and bass-line.
Again, this album is not for that average Black Metal listener. It has erratic changes and melodies. Abbey ov Thelema goes to places Black Metal might not really be thought to taken while still keeping the elements of Black Metal. It might just take some time for the listener to grasp the elements they are presenting. Recommend you listen to this album a couple of times, let the base elements of what Abbey Ov Thelema are, then decide if you are now into their Transcendental Khaoblack Metal!
"Liber DCLXVI" is a mindblowing masterpiece of art like never before! Be prepared for the very chaotic, symphonic, dark, and epic sounds of the Abbey! Unearth the boundaries of art pushed out of this world as you will experience Transcendental Khaoblack Metal at its finest!!

The album moves away from the Symphonic Black Metal sound and keyboard usage featured on "In the Shadow Of A Thousand Suns" to a more Pure Black Metal sound.
After all, the New York-based band has suffered enough prejudice from genre extremists due to a momentary dalliance in Metalcore early on in its career, not to mention the relatively commercial style of synth-wrought Orchestral Black Metal heard on the band's first album. Many observers believed this style owed way too much to England's widely reviled (and contradictorily wildly successful) Cradle of Filth, whose perceived opportunism made them black metal's ultimate sellout poster boys, but it's simply not fair to condemn Abigail Williams to the very same death sentence so soon, especially in light of the band's much improved second album, 2010's "In The Absence Of Light", which reveals a perfectly competent and oftentimes quite engaging collision of vicious aggression and ambitious songwriting grandeur.
Yes, it's true that Abigail Williams are still deriving most of their ideas from other established Black Metal names, but at least they're now reaching for the higher standards established by the likes of Dimmu Borgir and Bal-Sagoth, instead of Dani Filth's merry crew. Heck, Abigail Williams even achieve convincing shades of Emperor on the hauntingly epic highlight "The Mysteries that Bind the Flesh." Certainly, there is still nothing groundbreaking to be found on "In The Absence Of Light", but when you consider that 99 percent of the musical universe is guilty of committing the same sin, Abigail Williams' premature burning at the stake by Black Metal's self-proclaimed purists is hereby conclusively ruled as rank and unfair discrimination!

The eleventh full-length studio album by American Death Metal band.
The songs on "Napalm Reign" have a good amount of variety, pacing and structuring, within the framework the band have set themselves. The Classic/Power/Speed Metal influences (“Iron Clad” and “Scream in the Night”) help to add another aspect to their sound. It all adds up to something very special indeed. Leads and solos are all used well, and throughout the aggression and brutality the band infuse things with a sense of melody that shows off their songwriting skills to great effect.
The band consists of all accomplished musicians, as they should be at this point in their career, and the songs on "Napalm Reign" are all performed as well as you would expect. Although it’s professionally delivered, the band still have a real passion for the material, that much is evident, which is great to hear after 23 years of existence.
Oh, and they really know how to play fast when they want to. Hold on to your hat when you listen to this!

The ninth full-length studio album by American Death Metal band.
Kentucky's masters finally arrived with 8 tracks of pummelling Extreme Metal!
There is always something to be said for persistence, and perhaps Abominant are one of our most stalwart American lessons in this virtue, having released nine full-length albums, all but hidden from mainstream recognition, offering nothing more than the purest of Death Metal aesthetics that conjure up the Florida blasting of a Morbid Angel or Malevolent Creation, with a tinge of the good old Dutch style of Sinister and Pestilence.
Year after year and an album after another, Abominant has been cranking up new material since mid 90s and never reaching big fame. This is understandable in the context that the band most certainly aren’t innovating anything new, but on the other hand, their newest output "Where Demons Dwell" is a great listen. Perhaps the album serves as the proper catalyst to a re-evaluation of the veterans' backlog, because this is a well-written, mature album that clenches the attention span through most of its eight compositions.
Nothing could be sweeter than hearing a veteran band like this, far off the radars of most of the Nile, Suffocation and Cannibal Corpse worshipping Death Metal flock, create one of their most enduring pieces, and their long relationship with Deathgasm Records seems to have paid off. An American band, performing 90s style death metal without any trace of trendiness or bullshit...
"Where Demons Dwell" is the soundtrack to total nuclear fallout!!

-300x300.jpg)
- Product Code: Petrichor 019
-
€ 12.90
- Price in bonus-scraps: 129
This is a first official release of the album, after it was self-released by the band a year ago.
Abramelin began in 1988 under the name Acheron but changed to their current name in 1994 due to a clash with an international act of the same name. That same year they released their first EP, "Transgressions From Acheron", which many fans still consider a classic. Abramelin was a powerful, driving force in the 90s, playing alongside a host of well-known Aussie acts from various genres, as well as international Metal giants like Morbid Angel, Cradle Of Filth, Cannibal Corpse, Carcass and Paradise Lost. In 1995, they released a debut full-length, "Abramelin", and then disbanded.
Hard to say if they blew their chance at broader recognition given the attention their brand of "Deicide meets Carcass at the house of Cannibal Corpse" Death Metal received during that fertile period of the genre's rich history, but they’re back in 2020, stronger than ever.
Abramelin are back with a collection of songs that honour the reputation the band forged throughout the 90s. A brutal and extremely violent album even by Death Metal standards, it was recorded at various studios in Melbourne and then sent off to Unisound in Sweden to be mixed and mastered by the master of Metal, Dan Swanö.
Really cool comeback album, gory, brutal and full of bone-crushing tunes. Moreover, the band avoided the temptation to unnecessarily recreate musical history, as they crafted an album that sounds like it is from the present day!

The project of Hangsvart is the embodiment of human insanity, the child of grief and despair, the world haunted by Lovecraft’s creatures and full of Beckett’s magic words!
The music of the project is a pure Funeral Doom Metal turning into Drone/Ambient from time to time. During the 68 minutes of album length, the listener will be wrapped up in the atmosphere of horror and impending evil. The dark power emanating from these raw and somewhat neglectfully recorded guitar lines, from monotonous low-frequency buzzing and vibrations of keyboards suddenly turning into a pure neo-classical music create a solid soundscape of darkness, mysticism and the deepest despair!

It was the band's first studio album in five years, since “The Razors Edge”, and is also the band's final album of the 20th century. The album featured the return of former drummer Phil Rudd, who had been fired from the band in 1983 as a result of drinking and drug problems and a fight with founding rhythm guitarist Malcolm Young.
In over 20 years, AC/DC never changed their minimalist, bone-crunching Hard Rock. During their first ten years, that wasn't a problem, since they were still finding ways to expand and subvert the pattern, but ever since "For Those About to Rock", they had trouble coming up with consistent material. Consequently, their performances tended to be a little lazy and their records didn't deliver a reliable knockout punch. Released in 1990, "The Razor's Edge" showed some signs of life, and their comeback culminated in the Rick Rubin-produced "Ballbreaker". What makes "Ballbreaker" different than the albums AC/DC churned out during the '80s is simple, it's a matter of focus. Although "Hard as a Rock" comes close, there aren't any songs as immediately memorable as any of their '70s classics, or even "Moneytalks". However, unlike any record since "Back In Black", there are no bad songs on the album. Surprisingly, Rubin's production is a bit too dry, lacking the muscle needed to make the riffs sound truly earthshaking. Nevertheless, Angus Young's riffs are powerful and catchy, showcasing every element that makes him one of Hard Rock and Heavy Metal's greatest guitarists. Throughout the album, the band sounds committed and professional, making "Ballbreaker" the best late-period AC/DC album to date!
The album placed #1 in Australian ARIA Albums Chart, #4 in Billboard 200 and #6 in UK Albums Chart, and currently certified 2x platinum by the RIAA in the US, for sales in excess of 2000000 copies.

After having worked with Mutt Lange for three hugely succesful albums, AC/DC decided they could produce an album theirselves. They did a pretty good job on this one. At this point of their career, they knew what kind of sound they wanted, and came pretty close to nailing it. It may be a little underproduced, but it still sounds really good. It's better than being overproduced.
The lyrics, as always, are classic for AC/DC - Sex, Drugs and Rock 'N' Roll. This is where Brian Johnson began to reach the first low point in his career. On a few songs, you hear him forcing a few notes, but that's it. They still sound like the Brian Johnson of "Back In Black". For him, it went downhill for the Simon Wright albums.
This is the last Phil Rudd album before "Ballbreaker". Phil is a great drummer and one of the best time-keepers in Rock. AC/DC definitely missed him during the rest of the 80s.
This album is like a "Powerage" of the Brian Johnson era. It doesn't have many radio hits on it, but it is a fan favorite, like "Powerage"! It will show you another side of AC/DC, a less mainstream side!!
The album reached #4 in UK and #15 in the US, and has been certified Platinum by the RIAA for a circulation of more than 1000000 copies.

It contains tracks from their first two Australia-only issued albums, “High Voltage” and “T.N.T.” (both from 1975). Originally released on Atlantic Records, this edition of “High Voltage” has proven popular, selling 3000000 units in the US alone. The international release included only two tracks from the original release, with the rest of its songs being pulled from AC/DC's second album “T.N.T.”. The international releases of “High Voltage” also had different album covers from the original: one features a picture of Angus Young as he appeared on the cover of the Australian single for "It's A Long Way To The Top (If You Wanna Rock 'n' Roll)". An alternative cover was used on the international version's European release. However, initially the album was panned by some critics upon its release, including a review by Rolling Stone magazine's Billy Altman that called it an "all-time low" for the Hard Rock genre. It was re-released in 2003 as part of the AC/DC Remasters series.

While most other rock bands of the era were busy experimenting with Disco or creating studio-perfected epics, AC/DC was one of the few specializing in raw and Bluesy Hard Rock, as evidenced by 1978's live set, "If You Want Blood (You've Got It)".
The album was recorded live during the 1978 Powerage Tour and contains live versions of songs from "T.N.T.", "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap", "Let There Be Rock", and "Powerage". It is the last Bon Scott-era AC/DC album produced by Harry Vanda and George Young, who also produced the band's first five studio releases. AC/DC's concert at the Apollo Theatre in Glasgow, Scotland on 30 April 1978, was used for the bulk of the recorded material that appeared on the album. It can be clearly heard during "The Jack" when Scott exclaimed "Any virgins in Glasgow?". This concert will also be remembered for the encore when AC/DC came back on stage dressed in the Scottish Football strip. The songs "Dog Eat Dog", the encore "Fling Thing" and the final part of the concert (the reprise of "Rocker") were also performed during the night of the concert but eventually removed from the album. The live rendition of "Dog Eat Dog" was released as the B-side of the single "Whole Lotta Rosie/Dog Eat Dog" in November 1978. It was later released worldwide on the 2009 Box Set "Backtracks". The songs "Fling Thing" and "Rocker" (with its complete guitar solo) appeared only on video releases.
A song with the same title, "If You Want Blood (You've Got It)", appeared on AC/DC's next album, "Highway To Hell".
The album was listed at #2 on Classic Rock magazine's readers' poll of "50 Greatest Live Albums Ever".
“If You Want Blood (You've Got It)” captures the band at the height of their powers with Bon Scott at the helm. This is a great straight ahead Rock album that features some of the best songs from the bands early years, played at maximum volume and energy. Great live album!!

Powerage was a first in the sense that it debuted bassist Cliff Williams, but it really is more of a final curtain to the band's early years. It would be the last produced by Vanda & Young, the legendary Australian production team who also helmed hits by the Easybeats, and it was the last before AC/DC became superstars. As such, it's perhaps the most overlooked of their '70s records, also because, frankly, it is the most uneven of them. Not that it's a bad record - far from it, actually. There are a few genuine classics here, most notably "Down Payment Blues" and "Up to My Neck in You", and there's a real appeal in how Bon Scott's gutter poems of excess are reaching a mythic level; there's a real sense that he truly does believe that Rock & Roll leads straight to hell on "Rock 'n' Roll Damnation".
This is the first AC/DC album to be released nearly simultaneously in both Australian and international markets, and the first to use just one cover image for both. It was also the first to feature the same track listing on all versions, with the exception of the European vinyl edition (specifically, the first UK pressing of the LP). This version included "Cold Hearted Man", a song that was not previously released, and would not be released on any other AC/DC album until 2009's AC/DC “Backtracks” box set.
Album reached No. 133 on Billboard's Pop Albums chart in the US, eventually going Platinum there. In 2005, “Powerage” was ranked number 325 in Rock Hard magazine's book of “The 500 Greatest Rock & Metal Albums of All Time”. Kerrang! magazine listed the album at No. 26 among the "100 Greatest Heavy Metal Albums of All Time".
“Powerage” was re-released in 2003 as part of the AC/DC Remasters series.

It is the shortest studio album ever released by the band; at approximately 35 minutes, it is two minutes shorter than their previous shortest album, "Flick Of The Switch" (1983). "Rock Or Bust" also was the band's first album without founding member and rhythm guitarist Malcolm Young, who had retired from the band in 2014 due to health concerns, although he co-wrote every track on the album. Bass guitarist Cliff Williams has also retired since "Rock Or Bust" was released; drummer Phil Rudd was unable to participate in the supporting tour after being sentenced to house arrest; and vocalist Brian Johnson was forced to exit the band after the fifth leg of the album's supporting tour as a result of hearing loss.
Nothing can last forever. For a while in 2014, it looked as though AC/DC’s time might be up. Malcolm Young, who founded the band with brother and fellow guitarist Angus in 1973, was diagnosed with dementia and had retired from the band. It seemed unthinkable but, holed up with producer Brendan O’Brien in a Vancouver Studio, and with Young’s nephew Stevie filling in on rhythm, carry on they did. And how. "Rock Or Bust", the product of AC/DC’s own uncertain times, is a towering retort to any notion that they might be finished. As the name suggests, it’s an album that places its faith at the feet of Rock’N’Roll, both as a restorative force and also as a vaccine against all ills. Nowhere is this more explicitly stated than on the title track, which heaves along on the kind of monolithic riff Angus Young patented sometime around the Stone Age. Phil Rudd’s drums crash, Cliff Williams’ bass throbs and Johnson squeals out a defiant, ends-of-the-earth manifesto: "In Rock’N’Roll we trust / It’s rock or bust"!!
Upon its release, "Rock Or Bust" became the sixth most pre-ordered studio album of 2014 on Amazon UK. In the US, the album sold 172000 copies in its first week of release and debuted at #3 on the Billboard 200. As of January 2015, it has sold 500000 copies in the US leading to a Gold certification by the RIAA, the band's 22nd album to reach such status. In Canada, it debuted at #1 on the Canadian Albums Chart, selling 31000 copies in its first week of release. Worldwide, "Rock Or Bust" sold a total of 2.8 million copies in 2014. “Rock Or Bust” peaked at #1 in 12 countries, including Australia, Canada, Germany and Sweden. It reached the top 5 in a further 12 countries, including New Zealand, United Kingdom, United States and Italy. The album earned AC/DC a 2015 ECHO Award for Rock/Alternative (International).
