Artist: Arð Album Title: Untouched By Fire Label: Prophecy Productions Date of Release: 26 April 2024 It seems to me rather serendipitous to be listening to this album and writing my thoughts about it as I sit on a train from East Anglia to Edinburgh, steadily ploughing up the east coast of the UK through  Continue Reading »

Artist: Austere Album Title: Beneath The Threshold Label: Lupus Lounge/Prophecy Productions Date of Release: 5 April 2024 It was almost exactly the same time last year that I received my first taste of the music of Austere, via their long-awaited third album, ‘Corrosion Of Hearts’. Seemingly making up for lost time then, the Australian duo  Continue Reading »

Artist: Isenordal Album Title: Requiem For Eirênê Label: Prophecy Productions Date of Release: 8 March 2024 There’s a time and a place for some funeral doom metal and, as I have discovered, that time is now. And it’s all thanks to a band that I knew nothing about until last weekend when I was standing  Continue Reading »

Artist: Vemod Album Title: The Deepening Label: Prophecy Productions Date of Release: 19 January 2024 It has taken a decade for this album to see the light of day but there’s an argument to suggest that time has little meaning in the town of Namsos, Norway. Inhabited by just over eight thousand, Namsos is an  Continue Reading »

Artist: Eight Bells Album Title: Legacy Of Ruin Label: Prophecy Productions Date of Release:  25 February 2022 Had I not been recommended this album on social media I may still be blissfully unaware of its existence. Eight Bells is not a name with which I am familiar but I’m all for exploring new musical avenues  Continue Reading »

Artist: Arð Album Title: Take Up My Bones Label: Prophecy Productions Date of Release:  18 February 2022 It has been quite a while since I was able to wallow self-indulgently in some melodic funeral-paced doom metal. However, Arð provide more than ample ammunition to allow me to do just that, and it’s a very welcome  Continue Reading »

Artist: Dordeduh Album Title: Har Label: Prophecy Productions Date of Release: 14 May 2021 Sometimes, internal conflicts within bands can be a positive thing. We normally view these events as negative, but it isn’t always the case. This is one such.  Dordeduh, taken from three Romanian words meaning ‘longing for spirit’ was formed in 2009  Continue Reading »

Artist: Empyrium Album Title: Über den Sternen Label: Prophecy Productions Date of Release: 26 February 2021 I have a soft spot for Empyrium, so much so that I splurged a great deal of money on the box set ‘A Retrospective…’ a few years ago. Starting out as more of a melodic black metal band, the  Continue Reading »

Artist: Nachtmystium Album Title: Resilient EP Label: Prophecy Productions Date of Release: 30 November 2018 I spent sixteen years of my working life as an enforcement officer, tackling rogues and fraudsters hellbent on defrauding the innocent out of their hard-earned money. So it seems a little incongruous to spend my time reviewing a new release  Continue Reading »

Artist: Nochnoy Dozor Album Title: Nochnoy Dozor Label: Prophecy Productions Date of Release: 26 October 2018 With a name like this, you’d be forgiven for thinking that Nochnoy Dozor hailed from somewhere in Russia or the Baltic. As it turns out, the band are actually Greek, and came into existence in around 2015. This self-titled  Continue Reading »
