about

IRON BONEHEAD PRODUCTIONS is proud to present Lamentationen, a special split album between GRABUNHOLD and CIRCLE OF SHADOWS, on CD and vinyl LP formats.

Bringing together two black metal hordes from the Olde World, Lamentationen features three exclusive tracks each from Germany's GRABUNHOLD and Austria's CIRCLE OF SHADOWS. Those who follow the evil deeds of IRON BONEHEAD should be well aware of GRABUNHOLD by now, having released an EP in 2019 and the successive Heldentod debut full-length in 2021 (and, most recently, a reissue of the band's first demo). Keeping their swords aloft, the Germans continue to mine their medieval black metal with care, craft, and charisma. But the plaintive lament "Lebewol" should induce chills as their half comes to a close. CIRLCE OF SHADOWS, for their part, comprise a member from the well-respected Transilvania, and although they've been around a decade, their discography to date includes all short-lengths. Nevertheless, with their trio of tracks here do they whip forth a rustic style of black metal that's equal parts icy surge and triumphant march - pagan by proxy rather than "pagan black metal" by cliche.

I fucking love this band. 100% guaranteed that if you opened me up and listened to the sound of my crazy ass black metal heart, it would most likely sound something like this 🤣🖤 bcb723

There's a certain mood, an oddly specific aspect of existential misery triggered in me when listening to this - especially Von Alcoholische Verbittering Naar Religieuze Cult and its follow-up tracks. It's almost like spectating myself being overwhelmed by my demons: an ego death; a vicious, delirious frenzy induced by e.g. Salvia Divinorum, fighting over the control of my fleshly vessel, torn apart from within. I live for tracks like this, thrive in the 'visions'... absolute god-tier ambience. David Fischer

Tout est une question de perspective. En regardant la pochette d'Algleymi, on se dira : "c'est un constat d'échec de l'humanité face aux puissances cosmiques". Mais le gigantisme de cette silhouette est un signe que Misþyrming veut plutôt s'emparer de cette puissance et le black metal le confirmera très vite. Il est plus maîtrisé, massif et épique. Si le chant est déjà impressionnant, dégageant plus de haine, les guitares sont de leur côté absolument monumentales. Un chef-d'œuvre du genre ! Jordan Vauvert
