dimmu borgir - abrahadabra

wasn't much into this dimmu album upon time of release. back then i started to collect vinyl and was rather chasing copies of 'puritanical euphoric misanthropia' and 'death cult armageddon' on 2nd hand platforms.

when 'abrahadabra' became a thing for me, first press copies were long gone and a re-press of small quantity passed me by as well. not this time around. originally released by nuclear blast in 2010. re-issue on green vinyl by metalville. 2024.

blood incantation - absolute elsewhere

i had the vinyl of the new bi record standing in a pile in front of my turntable for quite a while. the overall hype surrounding the band put me off a little.

meanwhile i spun it a handful of times and have to admit that the hype is not undeserved. strong effort of these guys, which sees a new expansion of their unique sound. 700 copies on clear w/ purple splatter vinyl. century media. 2024.

artificial brain - labyrinth constellation

looooong awaited re-issue of this progressive technical death metal masterpiece. profound lore. 2014/2024.
