A new review section: Buried by Time And Dust

We added a new review section, coincidentally another Mayhem reference following 'The Past is Alive', with the title 'Buried by Time and Dust'. Over the years, a lot of promos have been gathering dust simply because a fresh wave of promos arrived the following month and they were consigned to oblivion. We will review them here to make a clear distinction with our other reviews. We will also use it to complete a discography in terms of reviews. Feel free to contact us if you would like to submit your music or would like to join the staff.

HV of Remmirath decided to start a side project in 2011, to create raw atmospheric Black Metal in the Nordic 1990s vein with vampyric themes, so moons, castles and rituals are all over the place. Once can ask why Inferna Profundis Records decided to re-release a demo that was released on cassette and only had 24 copies by Už Bolo Dosť! Productions? Are we dealing with a totally overlooked masterpiece or is the bloke behind the label a huge fan of it?

The label itself calls it “eternal and bewitching” and although I’m not convinced by those words, it is certainly sounding “old”, capturing a dark atmosphere and is in the vein of the early and mid Nordic 1990s. It is no coincidence Krolok has covered Carpathian Forest’s “Through Chasm, Caves and Titan Woods” of their “Through Chasm, Caves and Titan Woods” EP. This demo is certainly not a bad one and deserves a release more than 24 copies, but I would fool you if you missed out on something. (Ricardo)
