<p><strong>We have altered the way our mailing list is served</strong> – we have seen some passive protestations and will no longer be delivering webstore additions as they are added to the store to reduce our attention span footprint.

This means you will need to follow us on<strong> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/eyeandearcontrolrecords/">Instagram</a></strong> to get current information. Most of our other social media channels are fed by the posts there and they are by far more useful and reliable than most other methods, for now.

One of the most deviated, disgusting and anti-musical death metal aberrations ever conceived. BACK ON VINYL IN ITS MOST COMPLETE VERSION exactly as the cassette version that was circulating in the 80s! Originally released in 1984, “Sons of evil” is the first demo recording from the malevolent and sinister German entity known as Poison. This sounds so raw and extreme that even the band members took their time to decide whether to license a vinyl reissue or not, and the graal got unlocked only when after years of research through the most insane puritan collectors, we tracked a source whose quality was even “better” than the masters owned by the band and got it properly restored and mastered by our wizard H.O.D. at Toxic Basement studio. So one thing is sure: this LP is the matchless, best sounding version of “Sons of evil” you can dream about. Now quoting what has been said already about this gem: as primitive and barbaric as a Stone Age gang-rape, this tape is possessed by total darkness and evil. Musically, this runs the gamut from morbidly mid-paced to intense and somewhat insane. It bears no real similarities to any of their German counterparts, such as Sodom, Destruction or Kreator. The slower parts sound very reminiscent of Hellhammer, with one very important exception: this is darker and more evil than Mr. Warrior and his cohorts ever could have hoped to be. The vocals of Virgin Slaughter are exactly what Tom should have been doing on releases such as “Satanic Rites”. Possessed and maniacal, at times, his demonic voice actually accentuates the dark mood of the music, rather than detracting from it. As for the rest of the songwriting, this is like a war on the senses. Primitive and violent in nature, the riffs saw through you while the drums pound your skull into oblivion. It is almost difficult to believe something so bestial and grotesque existed back in 1984. The sound is on the same level as the “Death By Metal” demo, from Mantas, and makes the old Venom and Bathory records seem like they were done in high-dollar facilities. “Sons of Evil” is a monstrous offering from a band that had truly tapped into something dark and aggressive. Includes poster and an old school fanzine style booklet with rare photos, flyers and excerpts from zines/mags of that era.</p>

After their terrifying first two abominations (“Sons of evil” – 1985 and “Bestial death” -1985) and a live tape, 1986 sees these pioneering German maniacs deliver another nightmarish assault of dark, creepy death metal. It’s the turn of “Awakening of the dead” that even showing some kind of progress in their brutal primitivity and a 4-track production, still delivers the insane rawness and hallucinating morbidity they were feared for. On a promo sheet of the time they were describing it as follows: “POISON play a very extreme mixture of ultra-fast + ripping death metal and more classical, Black Sabbath-inspired doom stuff, without trying to follow and special trend or ripping off any famous band”. It’s all there, think of a death chamber unleashing the most stabbing screams of terror in a chtlulhu-ish pace alternating blasts of uncontrolled fury with Hellhammer tinged breakdowns. Once again mastered at Toxic Basement Studio from the best sounding source in existence still keeping the impact and genuinity of the original sound as it was on tape. Deluxe sleeve with restored original artwork, poster and a 16 page fanzine styled booklet including old interviews, reviews, flyers and rare photos. Licensed and approved by the band!</p>

<p>SRUIN248<br>
The second full-length hexation from Finnish terrorizing black metal coven Hexerei: forty minutes of the band’s staple assault on the psyche vomited from beyond the shreds of sanity. Five new abysmal, wretched curses of venom-soaked aural pestilence conceived as a gateway to absolute bedlam. On their new vomit of creation titled “Realms…..”, the deranged Finnish cult explores even more outer dimensions of terror and insanity, scouring the depths of delirium to uncover a cryptic primordial essence of complete world inversion. This second full-length disfigurement cements Hexerei’s profile as absolutists of the unutterable, and sees the Finnish scourge distance themselves even further from any concept of musicality, forcing upon the listener a berserk strain of virulent antimusic rarely observed at a such a crippled and primeval state. An intentionally destroyed audio quality and a completely regressive approach to the canonical decencies of songwriting and recording exalt a sonic delirium of complete inhumanity that redefines the concept of raw black metal entirely, reconsigning it to its ancestral and legitimate origin as vector for boundless violence and absolute evil. The ancestral path paved by Cultes Des Ghoules, Katharsis<span class="bcTruncateMore">, Armagedda, Vorum and Concrete Winds thus finds new instigators to the propagation of occult and grotesque audio as terror, and “Realms…..” stands grandiose and inscrutable in its defiant goal of returning this particular strain of necrotic extreme music back to a certain dimension of absolute malignancy where it was birthed and belongs.</span></p>

In under half hour Edmonton-based bestial death metal sadists Prophetic Suffering bring forth a violent and dark monstrosity forged by an abysmal convergence between Blasphemy’s war-torn black metal terror with the gruesome and gore-infested death metal of Cannibal Corpse albums like “The Bleeding” and “Tomb of the Mutilated”. “Rivalry of Thyself” sees the Canadian horde metamorph out of their already catastrophic 2022 debut demo ablaze in an exponential spell of destruction in which impenetrable and shellshocking atmospheres enshroud a monolithic, screaming altar of mutilated bodies and trodden flesh. This sanguinary and chaos-wielding approach to American death metal had already been observed before within the underground’s most forbidden folds, as exemplified for example through the perversions of cult devastators like Drawn and Quartered or Angelcorpse. But what transpires from Prophetic Suffering’s new lightless death metal vision is something of even less canonical lineaments and which sets various precedents in the development of this peculiar strain of<span class="bcTruncateMore"> darkened and ultra-gruesome metal of death. Foremost, a pervasive and weaponized use of modern black metal and technical death-derived dissonance compounding into a torrent of gnarled and atonal fretwork destruction. A mind-expanding contrast is created where the guitar work stretches forward to embrace a mutating modernity still in becoming, while the rest of the band regresses backward into a primeval pandemonium of carpet-bombing hammer blasts, searing basslines, and soul-tearing death grunts. This contrast between the album’s transformative articulation and its visceral adherence to primitivism and barbarity is what makes “Rivalry of Thyself” such an abomination unto itself. A defiant, dark death metal monstrosity that harkens back to a familiar golden age of extreme metal just as it evokes sinister presages of a future form of evolved, lightless death metal still all in becoming.</span></p>

Samiarus (or Samyaza as more widely known in Aramaic) is the Arabic name of the leader of the Watchers in apocryphal abrahamic scriptures, a rebel angel who shared knowledge with men and birthed the Nephilim, becoming a danger to divine power and law and turning into the absolute usurper. Conceived from within the SF Bay Area punk and metal underground (by current and past members of Abnutivum, Meth Sores, Flesh Dungeon, Doomsday, Slaughteruin, Abstracter and Mentor), emerging black/death metal terrorists Samiarus embody their namesake concept of abysmal occult usurpation to the boldest through their debut EP “Reign Destroyer”, a twenty three minute siege of blown out, bestial sonic upheaval fuming from the iron jaws of terror. While deliberately embracing the cruelty and darkness of the war metal movement developed by bands like Blasphemy and Archgoat, Samiarus’ own formulaic sonic design for the gruesome deposition of all oppressors has brought in a number of other influences to further weaponize their subversive terroristic vision. These influences mainly come from punk and hardcore bands like G.I.S.M., Doom, Raw Nerve, Cult Ritual, Discharge and Siege, as well as from<span class="bcTruncateMore"> some of the band members’ interest in certain strains of industrial and noise music. A concoction of retaliative audial tactics that has ultimately shaped an anarchic war-torn sonic scourge grueling with dismal reflections on the human condition and on society’s worst embodiments.</span></p>

The putrid offering was then self-released by the band digitally on Bandcamp and on cassette, before ending up in an inevitable unholy pact with Sentient Ruin to have the heretical onslaught spread to a wider audience for the first time ever on vinyl format. An implausible crossway of sorts between bands like Corrupted, Hell, Primitive Man, Dragged Into Sunlight and Gnaw Their Tongues, the enigmatic band’s peculiar self-described anti-christian blackened sludge/death-doom displays an abysmal atmosphere shrouded in dissonance and a nekro-fucked audio quality reminiscent of raw punk and raw black metal, but with a massive bottom-caving low end, and absolutely smothering and crushing levels of heaviness.

“Débil”, a glorious and sprawling remastered discography vinyl compilation covering the entire release history of one of Brazil’s most definitive dark punk bands, conceived and envisioned side-to-side by Sentient Ruin with the band as an omen of more, and greater, things to come from our partnership. With “Débil” Clan Dos Mortos Cicatriz condense a fifteen-year career influenced by the darkest sides of punk and hardcore as well as by crust, Oi!, goth, deathrock, post-punk, and black metal, into twenty eight-song triumph of crepuscular and cemeterial death-punk majesty. Riddled with a tangible sense of loathing and malaise, these twenty eight tracks encapsulate the history of a band influenced by acts Black Flag, Misfits, G.I.S.M., Void, Christian Death, Rudimentary Peni, and Hellhammer as they revel in the most remitted and destitute declinations of punk, digging deep into the most skeptical underworld of the genre devoid of idealism and dominated instead by pessimism and negativity. Despite being an experimental act with some digital releases exploring side-genres like noise, ambient and avantgarde, this<span class="bcTruncateMore"> staggering forty-six minute anthology remastered by Will Killingsworth contains all the strictly-punk tracks published by the band so far, covering the band’s short 2017 self-titled debut album (which was re-recorded by the band in 2022), the subsequent “Febril” and “Febres Intermitentes” mini-albums from 2018 and 2019 respectively, as well as the recent 2022 “Senil” EP. All the tracks display Clan Dos Mortos Cicatriz’s superb death-punk craftsmanship and their strict adherence to the golden eras of all the main styles which influenced them, with simple, short, necrotic and demented-sounding songs seething with grimness and filth and characterized by vocalist Felipe Soares’ enigmatic lamented vocals and thought provoking lyrics in Portuguese telling disheartening tales of endless personal decay, struggle, disease, loss, misery and failure.</span></p>

The debut album by Brazilian death punk cult Clan Dos Mortos Cicatriz, fifteen cuts, twenty five minutes of sinister and cemeterial raw nekro-hardcore churned from the gutters and graveyards of Curitiba, Brazil. A grim manifesto of total refusal and an undying ode to death and suffering, “Técnicas de Morte” gives a voice to every slum, prison, mental hospital, war zone, morgue and cemetery on earth, reminding us all that no human state, act or behavior exists outside of suffering, misery and death. Throughout their crepuscular auditory journey the Brazilian cult display an unrivaled craftsmanship in conjuring and condensing the greatest moments of dark punk, hardcore and crust (Black Flag, G.I.S.M., Misfits, Rudimentary Peni), death rock (Christian Death, The Damned) and black metal (Hellhammer, Ildjarn) into their own magistral ritual of transcendence through the celebration death, bending each one of their influences into a masterclass of gangrenous sonic disarray, majestic evocative power, and frenetic emotional chaos. Each one of the fifteen short spells of rage and misery that comprise this<span class="bcTruncateMore"> unforgettable long player is both a poem, a denunciation, an epitaph, an oath of penitence, and a declaration of war, all strewn across a death-scarred canvas of frantic and stylish guitar licks, pummeling, demented rhythms, and a wailing sermon of spectral, hysterical vocals doused in morbid poetry and ominous existentialism.</span></p>

Having started as far back as 2015 and existed for many years as a raw, bestial obscure war cult following in the steps of bands like Sadogoat, Blasphemy, Beherit, and Proclamation, in recent times Ch’ahom have been undergoing an expansive metamorphosis of their sound and songwriting, now juxtaposing a crisp and dense production quality to their primeval terrorscape, that exalts new elements incorporated from early 90’s technical death metal in the vein of Timeghoul and Demilich, as well as from 70’s UK prog influences derived from the band’s peculiar interest in acts like Yes, Camel and Genesis. Ch’ahom’s long running mesoamerican concept about pre-columbian rituals and death cults has also conversely benefitted from this recent sonic transfiguration, with their staple<span class="bcTruncateMore"> tribal contaminations and ornamental interludes (written and performed by the members themselves with traditional instruments) now assuming a whole new presence against the backdrop of the album’s devastating scope and vision. Across it’s sprawling forty-plus minutes and five dismal tracks, “Knots of Abhorrence” unfolds a pure masterclass of rare violence, atmosphere and intensity, carrying the listener across a gruesome wormhole and into another dimension of history’s past where violence, carnage, bloodshed, magic and ritualism incarnate the sum of mankind’s biggest and most ancestral fears. Those lurking in our subconscious and within the hidden cracks of our ego and which have often transmuted into madness and ravaged and derailed human society, culture and sanity and created some of the darkest and most chaotic eras of our history.</span></p>

<p>Italian death-doom titans Assumption return with “Hadean Tides”, their colossal new full-length album and first new work of new material in four long long years. “Hadean Tides” sees the Italian quartet take their dismal experimental slow moving death metal formula into a realm of absolutely soul-disintegrating majesty, unfolding nearly an hour of abysmal downtuned crawling carnage immersed in contemplative dirges and mesmerizing ambience. Few underground extreme metal bands these days are capable of evoking such grandiose visions of aphotic dimensions and of shifted states of consciousness as Assumption can conjure through the hallucinatory immensity of their transformative death-doom. Yet, “Hadean Tides” sees the Italian band seemingly dwell on a plain of creative clairvoyance unto its own, once again shattering boundaries and exalting an endless stream of influences and boundless sonic exploration to reaffirm themselves as absolute prophets of this visionary death metal transcendence where cavernous gargantuan riffs and supernatural ambient soundscaping interweave each other and are trapped within an<span class="bcTruncateMore"> inextricable time dilation to form a monstrous aural hallucination adrift unto the abyss. The massive album displays an unseen plethora of chromatics and manifestations of self, adding keys, strings, choral chants and flutes to the absolute crush-depth to mutate effortlessly between the dismal bleakness of bands like Evoken or Esoteric, the comatose encrusted cavernous rot of death-doom legends like Winter or Disembowelment, and the enigmatic ambience abstractions of ethereal experimental bands like Dead Can Dance and Trial of the Bow. The band’s masterful melding of styles and transformative approach to the death-doom style incarnates as an absolute colossus of enveloping atmospherics enshrouding a magma of monumental death metal riffs that faces the listener with a deeply spiritual and cinematic listening experience with an immense apocalyptic aura.</span></p>

Suffocate in the void that Altarage brings forth. Reality will suffer. Nothing can crawl away from the open mouth of “Nihl”. In 2016 Spain’s Altarage changed the face of death metal with a watershed moment that marked an inexorable point of no return, and Sentient Ruin was there to tell this story through release of the band’s debut demo the year prior and of this beast on cassette tape format the following year. With its sheer tonnage and immensity, “Nihl” appeared instantly as a masterpiece that would pave the way to a new era of death metal and to a new way of conceiving and interpreting the notion of absolute heaviness. While the game-changing repercussions and influence this monster has had on extreme metal may still require some years to be fully assessed and understood, still nothing in the present can challenge what Altarage have accomplished and constructed within the omnipotency of “Nihl”. Before “Nihl” dissonant, abstract, atmospheric extreme metal, and traditional riff-heavy death metal still lived two<span class="bcTruncateMore"> clearly defined, separated existences traveling on parallel trajectories which rarely touched. “Nihl” created a visionary and daring perturbation in this balance. A foreboding disturbance which sent the course of events on an entire new path, causing the two styles to inexorably converge unto another creating a new lineage of hyper-evolved death metal that conjoined the best of both worlds and triggered the birth of a new death metal world entirely its own. A world in which the notions of immensity, surrealism, and sensorial oppression assume monstrous traits and in which unreality becomes a not only a reality, but a bleak weapon of catharsis and transcendence. After working with the band from their obscure inception back in 2015, we continue to honor and celebrate the genius and legacy of Altarage, particularly of “Nihl”, the point of no return that gifted us all with a new notion of heaviness, with a reissue on all formats of a beast whose power and enormity remain enigmatic and ungraspable, but widely acknowledged and revered to this day.</span></p>

Abyssal Rift emerges from the bowels of hell with its debut-full length monstrosity, “Extirpation Dirge”, a thirty six-minute miasmatic behemoth of dark and antihuman death-doom conceived by Columbus, Ohio-based multi-instrumentalist Matt Auxier (of industrial acts 6th Circle and Ash Prison) handling all instruments, songwriting and recording, with the exception of drums (performed and recorded remotely by David Mahony of Irish black/grind terrorists Unyielding Love). The band is the manifestation of Auxier’s long-running history as a metalhead and of his extensive appreciation (parallel to that for industrial music) for dark and atmospheric death metal bands like Incantation, Disembowelment and Immolation as well as for 60’s and 70’s prog bands like Goblin, King Crimson, Eloy, and Amon Düül II, which in the context of his expertise and knowledge as a producer and home studio owner, has yielded a dense and disorienting dark death metal beast shrouded in surreal atmospheres and an hallucinatory form of dirge-like experimentalism. An all-devouring obfuscation of abyssic crush depth<span class="bcTruncateMore">, “Extirpation Dirge” seems horizonless and bottomless as it propagates and gravitates downward like a churning maelstrom, alternating moments of obliterating machine-like dark death metal destruction to others of misery-torn doom and cinematic widescreen experimentalism, with dense synth work alternating contemplative passages of clean guitars and ominous presages of spectral dark ambience.</span></p>

Yet just as expediently, a malodorous new organism arose in its place, Corpus Offal. Still featuring Cerebral Rot’s rancid core of Ian Schwab (guitar / vox) and Clyle Lindstrom (guitar), the Corpus Offal rhythm section of Jason Sachs (bass) and Jesse Shreibman (drums) now summon intensely elevated waves of stomach-churning nausea. After last year’s demo defloration, Corpus Offal presents its self-titled full length erupting like a festering corpse dragged from a midnight sewer; putrid, pulverizing and perversely invigorating.</p>
<p>A bludgeoning autopsy of Death Metal, Gore and Deathgrind, the low-tuned grooves, discordant leads and mid-tempo rumble of Cerebral Rot is evident in tracks like ‘Spinous Forms of Mortal Abhorrence’ and the title-track while setting the bar for a melted transformation into more ghastly liquified forms. The gargling slime vox of Ian Schwab are dangerously radioactive, summoned straight from the sealed basement of a nuked morgue narrating a splatter-fest of morbid poetry, decomposing flesh, absurd experiments, and gruesome transgression. Each song plays out like a medical examiner’s case file crossed with the fevered<span class="bcTruncateMore"> ramblings of a psychopath—precise in its anatomical horror and repugnant in its bizarre depravity.</span></p>
<p>Consecrated with an impossibly heavy Billy Anderson production, by the time Corpus Offal reaches its cataclysmic conclusion, you’re left drained, disoriented, and left wondering whether you’ve survived a masterpiece or witnessed the musical equivalent of a snuff film. So enter the crematorium, inhale deeply and be filled with the corporeal intoxication of Corpus Offal’s carnage. This is a sonic slaughterhouse and you’re the carcass. ”</p>

<p>Taking place right after “Crepuscular Dirge for the Blessed Ones”, “Emerald Fires…” takes us to an even deeper and ineluctable journey. Now that the empyrean inhabitants have fallen down for good and all the debris of physical worlds are scattered around, the main character of the tale has in-fact to walk his very last path counting only of his very last strengths to face eternal solitude and death; a path exploring both the widest astral distances imaginable and the most twisted labyrinths of the inmost self.</p>
<p>Musically speaking, the concept is depicted through an even broader palette of influences compared with its predecessor, ranging from the most hammering death metal riffs, to progressive veins and even shades of symphonic black metal, embraced through an almost omnipresent wide atmosphere and multilayered arrangements of distant guitars, cellos and synths. Giulio Galati (ex-Hideous Divinity, Nero di Marte), once again teamed up with Gramaglia as<span class="bcTruncateMore"> a session drummer, to complete his effort through an extremely powerful and dynamic performance behind the kit.</span></p>
<p>COSMIC PUTREFACTION was formed in 2018 as the death metal sonic incarnation of the multi-instrumentalist Gabriele Gramaglia (also behind The Clearing Path and part of Turris Eburnea, Vertebra Atlantis and Hadit), which summoned the aforementioned musical entity to re-arrange and complete the unreleased album of his first band Oaken/Throne, which begun in 2012 but was left uncompleted because the combo disbanded. This album was completed and released in 2019 under the name of “At the Threshold of the Greatest Chasm”, which comprehended six-and-a-half tracks taken from the unreleased Oaken/ Throne album. He later refined his formula through the second album “The Horizons Towards Which Splendour Withers” and Crepuscular Dirge for the Blessed Ones” which expanded the death metal roots with the multifaceted range of influences Gramaglia has developed throughout the years.”</p>

The city’s best kept secret. And what better a release to formally announce the relocation of the Static Shock Head Honcho, than the excavation of the city’s most overdue LP?</p>
<p>From the opening notes of “Your Head In My Arms,” SIYAHKAL unleashes absolute, stomping psychedelic hardcore perversion. Self-recorded, the thing sounds like a demon unleashed. Squalls of noise are smeared across a record of near-meditative, throbbing HC. It’s an unrelenting, brutal album that would see any sane person running for the exits.</p>
<p>While the music itself is precise, intentional and pounding, the vocal delivery and its lyrical subject matter provide a deeper meaning. This isn’t just a record to crack skulls to, it’s an album loaded with political subtext. How does an artist reconcile their own exile? How do they engage with the caricatures that western psychosocial dominance makes of their beautiful home? When their own survival is at stake, what is the true meaning of justice? SIYAHKAL manages to produce something indebted as much to the likes of DESTINO<span class="bcTruncateMore"> FINAL or MOBS, as it is the Persian culture KG bleeds into it.</span></p>
<p>And the sentiments expressed here are not just Iranian, or Venezuelan, or Palestinian. SIYAHKAL’s “Days of Smoke and Ash” reflects the reality of the world as this era comes undone. They’ve manifested something universal and urgent that blurs the boundaries of hardcore punk. When power attempts to distort you, the only option is to distort back. Let the walls of Evin, of Guantanamo, of Al-Hol, of Ofer crumble at the sounds of SIYAHKAL.</p>
