Premonições: Alaric/Atriarch-split



20 Buck Spin presents two tracks from our upcoming split LP between Alaric & Atriarch. The LP will be released officially on April 17th. The bands will embark on a West Coast tour together in early April and should have the LP available at that time if all goes well. We’ll stream the full LP closer to the release date. For now, check out “Weep” from Alaric and “Oblivion” from Atriarch via these Youtube vids:

Premonições-Conan-Monnos



Galloping and muscular sludge-doom is their strong-suit, and Monnos is a definite must for fans of Sleep, the "z-string" rattle of Torche, Coffinworm (sans any blasting moments), or the Melvins. The album is out on April 2nd 2012 via Burning World Records on digital, CD, and vinyl formats, but you can listen to new song " Hawk as Weapon" in this post.

Vansköpun-‘Alsæla Gegnum Endurfæðingu’ Tape EP



A 19 minute journey beyond the darkest corners of the mind. Curse your existence in this purposeless world... VANSKÖPUN preaches the only thing that is certain... DEATH.
This tape EP is the debut release from VANSKÖPUN. Grim, hypnotic black metal from the north of Iceland. Mastered by Kark Mastering.

Full sample track available: 
 


Mitochondrion - Archaeaeon Gatefold 2LP (Gold vinyl) PRE-ORDER



THIS IS A PRE-ORDER. THIS AND ALL ITEMS ORDERED WITH THIS ITEM WILL SHIP BETWEEN THE FIRST AND SECOND WEEK OF APRIL 2012.

Mitochondrion's crushing debut finally delivered on vinyl. Originally self-released on CD in 2008; 2011 saw the remastered CD version delivered by Dark Descent Records. Now we bring to you the ultimate presentation of this stellar album.

This release contains completely re-crafted artwork based upon N.Y's stellar work on the CD version, but still wholly the mad creation of artist Jeremy Hannigan (vocalist of seminal doom band Funeral Circle). The DLP will finally present the full lyrics in proper order, and contain a host of song descriptions, lyrical meanings, and a brief history of the album.

Carefully presented with a gatefold jacket on 24 SBS stock, this double LP also includes an eight-page 11" x 11" insert with terrific and original artwork throughout. There are two vinyl versions...a limited Gold vinyl version and the pitch Black vinyl version. Don't miss out on your chance to own Mitochondrion's seminal album with the most complete package yet!
