Album Review: Blot & Blod – Ormekongens Argelist

The three-piece, black metal band BLOT & BOD bring a raw, energetic, primal but all too-familiar sound to their sophomore release, Ormekongens Argelist. This album does very little to waste your time, clocking just under thirty minutes, and I intend to do the same. First and foremost, this album is a raw black metal assault filled with tremolo picking, blast beats, and witchy vocals all wrapped up in a lo-fi package that will make any Yule celebration kvlt and trve. Now, with that out of the way, what sets this album apart from the countless others like it? Sadly, not […]

KAWIR set release date for new IRON BONEHEAD album, reveal first track

Today, Iron Bonehead Productions sets January 10th, 2020 as the international release date for KAWIR’s highly anticipated eighth album, Adrasteia, on CD, vinyl LP, and cassette tape formats. For over 25 years now, KAWIR have been one of the unsung pillars of the classic Greek black metal sound. While the names Rotting Christ, Varathron, and Necromantia are incredibly important to that style’s foundation, it was Kawir who kept the faith during the ’90s and into the new millennium. In 1994, the then-young band released two pivotal 7″s, Eumenides and a split with Japan’s Sigh – on the pivotal Cacophonous Records, […]

REIGN IN BLOOD set release date for comeback album on IRON BONEHEAD, reveal first track

Today, Iron Bonehead Productions sets August 16th as the international release date for REIGN IN BLOOD’s long-awaited comeback album, Missa Pro Defunctis, on CD and vinyl LP format. Staunchly German, REIGN IN BLOOD formed in Saxony in the dark days of 2004. Largely steered by founding vocalist/guitarist Demon Raise and drummer Athanasius, the band soon assaulted the black metal underground with a demo, a split, and an EP, all between 2006-2007. Then, in 2009, came REIGN IN BLOOD’s cult debut album, Diabolical Katharsis, and they then seemingly receded into the shadows, as violently as they originally burst forth from them. […]

SCYTHE LORE set release date for IRON BONEHEAD debut EP, reveal first track

Iron Bonehead Productions sets June 21st as the international release date for SCYTHE LORE’s striking debut EP, Through The Mausoleums Of Man, on CD and 12″ vinyl formats. Hailing from Germany, SCYTHE LORE are a death metal band in all its aspects, in every definition. Not for nothing is this power-trio named SCYTHE LORE: this beast is being hurled into the world with both stealth and mystery. Its first manifestation of dread, darkness, and doom suitably bears the title Through The Mausoleums Of Man. As that title suggests, the six-track/20-minute record is a journey which details man’s interactions with death […]
