To be honest, so far, DSR's own signings are not particularly inspiring. For example, ULVEHUNGER: a band made up of veterans of the Norwegian scene (members of CADAVER and DISGUSTING), where Frost from SATYRICON himself plays the drums. On paper, it is powerful (to quote a bullshit (as always) press release, \u201cin the tradition of CARPATHIAN FOREST, DARKTHRONE or GORGOROTH\u201d), but in reality, it is not. \"Retaliation\" is most reminiscent of SATYRICON in its most boring and crappy iteration, that is, in 2000s. I guess it's more sincerely metallic, but the feeling is about the same.  High-quality arrogant boredom.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&nbsp;<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 350px; height: 786px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=2600407777\/size=large\/bgcol=333333\/linkcol=ffffff\/transparent=true\/\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ulvehungerdarknessshallrise.bandcamp.com\/album\/retaliation\">Retaliation by Ulvehunger<\/a><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>WARMOON LORD \/ VULTYRIUM &#8211; Pure Cold Impurity<\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\">Year:<\/span> 2020<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\">Label:<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.werewolf.fi\/\">Werewolf Records<\/a><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\">Rating:<\/span> <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">7,9&nbsp;\/ 10<\/span><\/p>\n<p>A split of two Finnish bands with a very similar approach to Black Metal: grandiose, symphonic, pretentious, with a bias towards fantasy aesthetics.

When compared with comrades in style, WARMOON LORD sounds closer to VARGRAV, and VULTYRIUM to a mixture of old and modern SATANIC WARMASTER.

In the end, nothing worked out, and the band fell apart, but in the 2020s it was reborn again. For us, it is interesting because of the participation of Paul Ledney (PROFANATICA, HAVOHEJ) - he plays drums here. In form, this is hardcore punk, to which I am completely indifferent, but the release lasts 9 and a half minutes, so it's not getting boring and gives a certain dose of fun.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&nbsp;<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 350px; height: 721px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=486242055\/size=large\/bgcol=333333\/linkcol=ffffff\/package=4066132739\/transparent=true\/\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bloodyapostles.bandcamp.com\/album\/bloody-apostles\">Bloody Apostles by Bloody Apostles<\/a><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>DEMONIO &#8211; Reaching for the Light<\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\">Year:<\/span> 2023<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\">Label:<\/span> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.helterskelterproductions.se\/\">Helter Skelter Productions<\/a><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\">Rating:<\/span> <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">heavy dose<\/span><\/p>\n<p>I'm not sure how this release got into my digital promo folder - ost likely thanks to the boobs on the cover.

I give it my due, the album is outstanding in terms of sound. It works in very curious ways. As for the rest, it's pretty rocky and bright doom, almost devoid of any \"infernality\".

On the new record, the band changed a bit, becoming louder and angrier. Because of this, it sometimes resembles MIDNIGHT, but, fortunately, such moments are always short. Otherwise, FLAGELAD\u00d6R is still drawn to classic Heavy Metal, which this time is manifested not only through guitar solos, but also through vocal parts. Armando Exekutor shouts less and sings more, sometimes even in falsetto. Again, like its predecessor, \u201cCulto aos Decib\u00e9is\u201d is far from the strongest album in the world, but it is pleasant and interesting to listen to it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&nbsp;<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 350px; height: 820px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=4021018425\/size=large\/bgcol=333333\/linkcol=2ebd35\/package=3132419183\/transparent=true\/\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/helldprod.bandcamp.com\/album\/flagelad-r-culto-aos-decib-is\">Flagelad\u00f6r &#8211; Culto aos Decib\u00e9is by Helldprod Records<\/a><\/iframe><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>108-\u044b \u0432\u044b\u043f\u0443\u0441\u043a \u043a\u0430\u0440\u043e\u0442\u043a\u0456\u0445 \u0430\u0433\u043b\u044f\u0434\u0430\u045e.
