Nimh / Nefelheim - Whispers From The Ashes (Weird Amplexus)


Label info: "Ideally inspired by the Inquisition era, like some titles of the tracks may suggest, "Whispers from the Ashes" presents Nimh (Giuseppe Verticchio) and Nefelheim joined together for the production of a dark oriented CD that alternates obscure and haunting atmospheres with more gloomy and sometimes dramatic and highly evocative episodes... In a blend of low frequencies, metallic sounds, echoes of distant voices and human screams, whispers, concrete noises, ritual processions, suddenly an acoustic guitar chord, some reverberate piano notes, the sound of falling rain, bits of thundering percussions emerge... Like in a disquieting voyage to a far away past, in a stakes and witches age, featuring persecutions of heretics and superstition... A wonderful trip in vein of Raison D'Etre and Cold Meat sounds."

Nordvargr - Helvete (Eternal Pride)


Label info: "The newest creation from Villa Bohult, the Nordvargr family burial vault. This time the "cursed poet" Wrest from the USBM Leviathan Cult and Drakhon (Beyond Sensory Experience, MZ.412) have joined the night sessions of the never sleeping Swedish zombie.
It would be totally insane to be waiting for something life-asserting, light and positive from the three of them. "Helvete" is just the overwhelming Darkness and the ice-cold all-filling Terror. Meditative and sinister Dark Ambient rhythms are filled with the ominous whisper of Wrest and Drakh. Deep and lengthy drones as well as the charming atmosphere of the Swedish industrial decadence.
At the end of this trip all of those nostalgic for the times of the "Burning The Temple Of God" MZ.412 will be fully rewarded for all the years of waiting..."

Ond - S/T (Inner Gravity)


Debut release from this American dark ambient duo whose memorable CD-R release on Somnambulant Corpse ("For Influence Blooms Of The Subtle Wing") some of you might remember. On this album the sound is bass-heavy, melodic and mournful, with some minimal percussion pacing some of the tracks. While the two longest pieces slightly suffer from being stretched out for too long with too little, that shouldn't detract from what is an overall solid debut.

Onirot - Augusta Taurinorum (Inner Gravity)


There's very little information on this one, so a brief summary will have to do. What you'll find here is a combination of cinematic (as in trailer-style sped-up sound effects) dark ambient and horror movie synth soundtrack. Despite minor production limitations (not everyone can be an instant Lustmord when doing sound design), there's a definite "demon in the cellar" B-movie charm to this. Pick it up and find out.

Onirot - Deus Ex Machina (Inner Gravity)


Final part of the Onirot trilogy. This time round the production is crystal-clear and the sound incorporates distant mechanical rumblings, footsteps and mangled drones into the mix. It seems the dank cellars have been left for desolate industrial fields, and the result definitely warrants praise. Well done!

Ovro - Gegendurchgangenzeit (Some Place Else)


Label info: "An exercise on aural pathworking. Cinematic isolationist dark-ambient soundscapes, very evocative... you are taken through rainy seas, soaked, shipwrecked, underwater, underground... and what sights you see, what beings you meet on the way is left for your subconscious to reveal. Deep listening for small hours. Sit back, relax and let your mind go."

Oxyd meets Sumad - Mysterious Places Of Dead Souls (Ars Benevola Mater)


Ethereal ambient from Slovakia with a somewhat baroque touch to it. Spacious drones are layered with melodic instrumentation and sparse processed vocal samples. Somewhere between Bisclaveret, Tabor Radosti and some CMI acts.
