Abigor - Leytmotif Luzifer: The Seven Temptations Of Man: Abigor's 8th full length studio release delivers seven sinful temptations. But these temptations are nothing alike seven deadly sins, we all ought to be afraid of; these temptations will lure you into their world and you will slowly unveil each and every one of them with joy and passion. Leytmotif Luzifer has everything a good black metal album needs: deranged guitar riffs, fast-paced drumming, smooth tempo passages, haunting vocals, great production, versatility and deeply deranged and gloomy, malice atmosphere, delivered by every single track.

Aeon Sable - Visionaers: Aeon Sable, a name that must already bring shivers to every and each soul fancying dark music out there. One year after the stunning "mini" album Aequinoctium, the German duo Aeon Sable offers an ahead of time album named Visionaers. It holds the right title, yes, and with seven sonic "visions" featured on this album they grant us a voyage through the inner universe, showing us the darkest secrets and yet leaving a lot to each ones imagination. The world we are stepping in is full of drama, magic and beauty. Read a review HERE. Links: Website, Facebook
Neurotech - Infra Versus Ultra: With Infra Versus Ultra you will travel through so many different colours, so many different emotions, so many different states of your mind. This album is a prime example how to successfully blend electronic, new wave, ambient and symphonic elements with a primordial metal sound and catenate them with sophistication and precision into entirety. Not only music wise, but also production wise Infra Versus Ultra deserves nothing but praise and is a must have for all the fans for electronic metal fusion genres. Read a review HERE.

Sleeping Pulse - Under The Same Sky: A musical collaboration between Mick Moss (Antimatter) and Luís Fazendeiro (Painted Black), with their debut album created a multi-faceted, modern and melancholic rock album. Despite its musical diversity, Under The Same Sky appears homogenous at all times thanks to the perfectly staged voice of Mick Moss, who on this album almost certainly delivers one of his most colourful vocal performance to date.

Sylvaine - Silent Chamber, Noisy Heart: For a debut album, Silent Chamber, Noisy Heart is more than worthy your time, if you are a fan of post-genres, shoegaze and atmospheric music. Imagine when the Sun's last rays enlighten the day you can enjoy the vivid colours of the nature; red, brown, yellow and orange, filling you with energy and felicity. But when the night falls and a cold embrace of nature overflows the world, the frosting, sombre takes its throne and rules the world and evokes your most abstruse and stygian emotions.

The Moon And The Nightspirit - Holdrejtek: The Moon And The Nightspirit can captivate with an interesting sense to compose smooth, yet very rich, almost cinematic ambiances. Mostly tranquil, dreamy, but sometimes also empowered and confused song structures are full of life, they breath with the listener as all those figures created by those sounds are taking shape. It's a dance of naked nyphs around the bursting flames. It's essence is dark, yet pure, it's elegant and hypnotic in the most audacious way. Read a review HERE. Links: Website, Facebook
Xandria - Sacrificium: With a new energy, completely refined style and a new singer, Xandria found a niche that was left open after Tarja and the rest of Nightwish didn't found a shared journey anymore. Xandria's sound enthuses with stunning melodies, many catchy refrains, bombastic symphonic orchestrations, some traditional celtic-folk insertions and sweeping vocal lines. You'll notice also some crushing cavalcading elements that can remind to Therion. Songs like "Nightfall" and "Dreamkeeper" will be on repeat for a long time by each and every fan of symphonic metal music. Read a review HERE. Links: Website, Facebook
