An Erotic End Of Times - Chapter One

The two musicians, who are known for working together in the industrial/goth band Porn, are blending together that traditional gothic metal sound which we adored back in the 90s, with cinematic soundscapes. An Erotic End Of Times did an album that is one of those with a big significance for the whole genre called gothic metal. The atmosphere is throughout quite cold and dark and gives you an indispensable haunting journey into the most obscure corners of your mind.

Diary Of Dreams - Hell In Eden

Hell In Eden is one of the all time highlights of atmospheric and melancholic dark electronic albums. It offers that one of a kind distinct Diary Of Dreams sound crowned by expressive vocals of Adrian Hates and absolutely haunting heart rending melodies. And you should know by now that we’re not talking about just a new album, which is absolutely stunning, we’re talking about the heartfelt epitome of everything Diary Of Dreams preserved throughout the years.

Elegi - Bånsull

Elegi is no stranger to the dark ambient scene. Since the debut album Elegi has an amazingly unique take on dark ambient, which could be part of why their music has been overlooked. Bånsull is hard to pin down, it could really be considered more of an experimental album than most others in the genre. There is never a moment on Bånsull in which Elegi won't keep the listener fully entertained and engaged. Elegi is for dark ambient fans who prefer something out of the ordinary.

Lacrimosa - Testimonium

Lacrimosa is a powerhouse of everything releated to dark, gothic, classical, theatrical and symphonic in rock or metal music. Testimonium sounds familiar, but yet is some kind of a culmination of everything that could be classified as gothic/symphonic metal, still the musical borders of Lacrimosa don't close just there. Testimonium is absolutely one of the strongest albums in Lacrimosa discography, with songs that might become timeless classics.

Merciful Nuns - A-U-M

One of the most creative forces inside dark/gothic rock scene must be the German cult trio Merciful Nuns. A-U-M is the ninth album in a row, and this time Artaud, Jawa and Jón takes us on an epic and occultistic journey through the pansophic traditions of sacred wisdom and knowledge, more precisely into the realms of Eastern philosopy. A-U-M is one hell of a highly dynamic record and sorrounded with impressive contemplative yet mystical aura.

Soror Dolorosa - Apollo

Apollo is a sonic adventure made up of 14 quite diverse compositions and while you embark on this journey with Soror Dolorosa you'll traverse many different emotional states, but one thing is common in all of the songs, that's a delicate sweet melancholy and bittersweet nostalgia that breaths from every single note. Apollo is Soror Dolorosa's crowning achievement, it offers more multidimensional and atmospheric sound than anything they did before.

W.E.B. - Tartarus

W.E.B.'s fourth album is an expression both straight but at the same time theatrical. W.E.B. is here to move you, provoke you, and invite you to the journey through ravendark starless nights with a fire made of metal music. This is a special blend of extreme, symphonic, gothic, dark and black metal. It's a musical challenge expressing darkness and death through adrenaline and poetry. Tartarus focuses on a deep orchestrations, making it sound epic as hell.
