We had a chat with Destructo about their debut full-length «Demonic Possession», recently released by Wolves Of Hades and Dying Victims. It ranged from intoxication obsession, 1st wave black metal and old school japanese hardcore worship, to fash bashing.

Some of the best electronic released in the last decade came undoubtedly from Bersarin Quartett, Thomas Bücker's solo outlet. The project's second album, «II», was released ten years ago today by @denovali and has aged like a fine wine since then.

These days, Black Shape Of Nexus is no more (though thankfully some of them are still crushing it with Bellrope). A decade ago, things were different, with the German five-piece releasing their massive third opus «Negative Black».

We miss Grails. Today, it marks the fifth anniversary of their latest release, the beautiful «Chalice Hymnal» (via @TempResLtd), but we're already missing a new album from them one or two years after because they are bloody great.

Two years and plenty of live shows after «Dor», Turia unveiled the mighty «Dede Kondre» five years ago today. The album was released by Altare Productions on cd and vinyl and by Haeresis Noviomagi on digital and cassette formats.

Finally, today marks the first anniversary of «See Red», the fantastic split between @JKBroadrick's JK Flesh and @RealMickHarris1' Monrella, which was released by Avalanche Recordings.

February will see the release of «De Dor a Odio», the debut full-length of Copenhagen based death-industrial project Son of Seth. The release comes by way of Trepanation Recordings and two of its sonic abysses can be now heard.

This Friday, @Borisheavyrocks release «W» through @SacredBones. They've recently unveiled a gorgeous video for «Beyond Good and Evil», which you can see at https://t.co/LdsdUHOsm2

[Nether @netherground]

Goatwave masters The Devil & The Universe will soon release «GOATopia» via [aufnahme + wiedergabe] and Solar Lodge. Intoxicated psychedelia and the acknowledgment that all utopias are dead and only goatopias live on can already be done in three tracks.

Later today, we'll bring you some news of upcoming albums. One of goatwave (yep), one of ambient / drone, and one of death-industrial.

[Nether @netherground]

Today, we start by highlighting the recent releases of Berlin's Detriti Records. First, we've got a hefty dose of industrial techno with strong EBM leanings by way of «La vittima è la musica», the new EP of Unconscious.

We end up in France, with the blistering and straight-up violent techno of Industry 43, whose second album «Hard of Hearing» pretty much states what it attempts to leave one as by its end.

Want story-telling and visceral discomfort in your experimental rock? Then Cassels upcoming «A Gut Feeling», to be released through @GODUNKNOWNRECS, should be right down your alley. Two of its songs are out and so far they hit all the right spots.

[Nether @netherground]

We've also got some news from the realm of psychedelic rock, as Seremonia will soon release «Neonlusifer» through @svartrecords. Two of its singles are up and give a very enticing view of the upcoming psych feast.

Finally, May saw the release of the «Curta'n Wall» EP, once again by Grime Stone. By then, their sound had gotten just the exact layer of filth on it to tie everything music together. We can't wait for more!

[Nether @netherground]

To wrap the week up and because we already talked a bunch about upcoming albums, we want to celebrate the one year anniversary of the release of «Terr'ble Death» by Curta'n Wall, digitally by Grime Stone and later in cassette via Dim Light Candelabrum.

[Nether @netherground]

As the year progressed, the offerings of groovy, minimal, and raw black metal would keep on coming. First, in February, Grime Stone put out the epic «Armed To The Teeth!» split with Fugitive Wizard.

[Nether @netherground]

In about two weeks time, punk/grime collective @PENGSHUIMUSIC will release its highly anticipated sophomore album «Destroy Yourself», of which plenty of fiery singles have been released. The record is set for release through @MvkaMusic.

Today, instead of an ephemeris or a stream, we start by recalling January 1, when Serpent's Sword released «A Sanguine Light in the Shadow of Gloom» by Gölgaräh, a fantastic piece of raw and melodic black metal with hints of dungeon synth.
