Today we would like to share our favourite artworks from the year 2022 with you in our Best of series. In the brackets you always find the name of the artist. Aidan 1. Horn – Verzet (Timon Kokott) 2. Dark Forest – Ridge & Furrow (Christian Horton) 3. Fer de Lance – The Hyperborean (Adam Burke) André […]
We continue with our Best of lists, which – as you can see – look a little different this year than they have recently: We have decided to avoid rankings and just present our top releases. When we show you our top albums, we will also write a short text for each record to explain […]
I already wrote it a few weeks ago on our Facebook profile: For months Aidan has been telling me that I really had to check out Darkest Era’s latest release Wither on the Vine more intensively. This would be one of the best albums of the year. My young colleague was right – and I […]
Wir haben schon häufiger auf diesem Blog bzw. auf unseren Social-Media-Kanälen geschrieben, dass Old Mother Hell aus dem Südwesten der Republik zu unseren Lieblingsbands im deutschen Underground zählen: Ihr selbstbetiteltes Debüt (2017) und der Nachfolger Lord of Demise (2020) gehören in jede halbwegs gut sortierte Plattensammlung.

Today we would like to share with you our first Best of 2022 list. We start with our best live moments – more precisely with our 3 favourite festivals of the year and our 3 favourite concerts (We cheated a bit here, sorry). Basically, it is almost impossible to make a selection, because we have […]
English version below Aidan und ich sind gerade dabei, unsere Best-of-Listen für das zu Ende gehende Jahr 2022 zu erstellen. Wir verraten nicht zu viel, wenn wir sagen, dass Bergfrieds EP Romantik I zu unseren Top-Releases zählt. Vor diesem Hintergrund freuen wir uns sehr, euch heute ein Interview mit Mastermind Erech III. von Lothringen präsentieren […]
Epic, atmospheric doom metal is the music that usually reaches me the most emotionally. So it should come as no surprise that Thy Listless Heart strike a chord with me with Pilgrims On The Path Of No Return. I am therefore particularly pleased to present to you today an interview with Simon Bibby, the creative […]
Während ich diese Zeilen tippe, schneit es draußen heftig, ja, so was passiert sogar mal in Dortmund – das ideale Wetter, um sich doomigen Klängen zu widmen, die Herz und Seele wärmen. Das machen wir heute auf unserem Blog mit dem Hamburger Quartett B.S.T., das uns mit seiner letzten Platte Herbst und erst kürzlich mit […]
