"To Become the
Weapon"
from their latest EP "Black Flesh Redemption" :

Demonical was spawned in March 2006 - by former Centinex members
Johan Jansson (guitars & vocals), Martin Schulman (bass) and Ronnie
Bergerståhl (drums) - with a mission to return to the roots of death metal
and deliver a sheer dose of darkness and brutality.
The first audio assault - a four track promo attack entitled "Bloodspell
Divine" - was recorded at Necromorbus Studios during July the same
year. In November 2006 Demonical added vocalist Ludvig Engellau to
the line-up - 'cause Johan wanted to fully concentrate on the six-string
axe - and signed a worldwide multi-album deal with German Cyclone Empire.
The bands first full-length album, "Servants Of The Unlight", was
recorded at both Black Lounge and Necromorbus Studios during January and
February 2007 and released in April the same year. In November 2007 Temple of
Darkness released a limited Demonical/Absu 7”EP featuring one track
from the “Bloodspell Divine” promo.
In December 2007 the band parted ways with vocalist Ludvig Engellau due
to musical and personal reasons. Demonical continued for a few months
with various session vocalists until late March 2008 when Sverker “Widda”
Widgren came on board as the new fulltime frontman.
The bands second full-length album, “Hellsworn”, was recorded at
Necromorbus Studios between December 2008 and February 2009 and released by
Cyclone Empire in May 2009. A split 7”EP called ‘Imperial Anthems
Vol.1’ with Paganizer was released by Cyclone Empire in early
2010. This limited vinyl featured an exclusive Demonical track recorded
at the “Hellsworn” session.
In September 2010 Demonical once again entered Necromorbus Studios
in order to record “Death Infernal”, their anticipated third full-length
album. The album was recorded throughout the fall and released in Europe by
Cyclone Empire (April 2011) and in north-America by Metal Blade (July
2011) as a limited digi-CD, regular CD and limited LP.
The album was praised by fans and media and climbed high at reader-polls in
several magazines. During the fall 2011 drummer Ronnie Bergerståhl
decided to leave the band due to scheduling conflicts and he was quickly
replaced by Fredrik Widigs.
After “Death Infernal” was released the band decided to add a second
guitarist for live situations. A few session members were used at several tours
until Daniel Gustavsson joined as a full-time member during the summer
2012.
The first half of 2013 was spent at both Necromorbus and Wing Studios
in Stockholm with the recordings of “Darkness Unbound”. After the
recording a line-up change took place with Johan Haglund replacing
Johan Jansson and Ämir Batar replacing Fredrik Widigs.
“Darkness Unbound” was released on September 20th 2013 and supported by a
world tour.

NeKronos Promotion is Proud to present the band of the NeKroWeek, they are
BLACK ALTAR, a killer Polish Terrorizing Black Metal band, respected and
worshiped on the underground of darkest metal forms! One of the best Polish examples of Black Metal and a reference in the genre!
Show your support and share this info to all your metal brotherhood if you like what you have heard!
In the darkest abyss of chaos where time and space are impenetrable, Black
Altar came into existence. It took its earthly shape during blasphemous
Sabbath in the Night of Walpurgia Anno Bastardi 1996, when it was summoned by
the voice of Shadow. He, as the first guardian of Black Altar,
have started an unholy crusade, thus awaking fear and pain among the
hypocritical and hideous christian lambs.
The first stroke into their rotten system of values was a demo entitled "Na
Uroczysku..." which gained a special recognition among several groups of
listeners. It was recorded by Shadow in 1997 at Selani Studio with the
help of Doc, Vader's drummer, in the role of a music engineer and drums
programming. Released under Shadow's own label - Odium Rec., the
first issue of 500 copies was sold out rapidly, making the name of Black
Altar very popular in Poland and in other countries as well.
Where were many musicians involved, however none of them stayed long because
they could not meet Shadow's high musical and ideological requirements.
The turning-point came in the end of 1999 when two new musicians, who just like
Shadow had shown boundless devotion to the Black Metal Art, joined the
band.
In December 2000 a new, long-awaited EP entitled "Wrath ov the Gods" was
recorded. Although all the compositions included were rather old, this record
presented a new and more full-fledged face of the band. The EP was released in
2002, once again, by Odium Rec., this time as a limited to 666 copies
hand-numbered with blood split CD with promising band Vesania. In 2003
Odium Rec. re-released "Wrath of the Gods" in the form of limited to
500 copies, hand-numbered with corpse blood, 7" EP.
In September 2003 at Selani Studio Black Altar recorded their debut album
entitled "Black Altar". It was a great improvement in the development of
the band. All the compositions show an enormous potential of Black Altar.
The new hymns are still more extreme and more technical. They reveal the unknown
regions of Black Metal - an Art destined for the privileged. "Black
Altar" was mixed and mastered at Studio X. For the track "Fire
ov Immortal Self" a professional video was recorded. In April 2004 the
material is released in the form of CD and a gate-fold LP by the German
Christhunt Productions. Odium Rec. releases a limited to 666 copies
hand-numbered with corpse blood cassette version of "Black Altar".
After releasing the debut album Shadow parts with his musicians and as of
that moment Black Altar became a one-man band.
In 2006 WarKult Prod from Peru released remastered version of Black
Altar "Wrath ov the Gods" (with 4 bonus tracks) as split,slip case cd, with
Nebular Mystic (Nor).
In October 2006 Black Altar finished, at very good Studio X, record
session of their second album called "Death Fanaticism". It's a killer
Black Metal Holocaust! This unholy Masterpiece ov Black Art was unleashed as cd
in March 2008 under the wings of Odium Rex and as gatefold Lp version by
Antichristian Front Rec from Spain.
In July 2010 Black Altar recorded tracks for mini album “Suicidal
Salvation” and for split Black Altar/Varathron/Thornspawn.
In January 2013 Black Altar / Varathron / Thornspawn split was finally
unleashed by Odium Records as jewel case cd version, as a deluxe gatefold
vinyl limited to 350 copies on black and to 150 copies on clear vinyl by
Floga Rec/Hellsfire Rec from Greece. Moreover digi book A5 version will be
released about February via Black Saw Prod (Mex) and BlackDeath Coven (USA)
and tape version, limited to 140 copies in cardboard box via RawBlackKult
Prod from Bolivia! There are 3 new tracks of Black Altar +intro and
outro.
In October mini album "Suicidal Salvation" was unleashed by German
Darker than Black as a digi pack and Lp (in 2014). The album includes songs
originally intended for the split with Shining
Next release of Black Altar will be a split with Beastcraft (Nor)

GAEREA
COUNTRY: PORTUGAL
GENRE: BLACK METAL
GAEREA JOIN FORCES WITH NEKRONOS PROMOTION! [2017.11.25] Nekronos
Promotion Hell is truly proud to announce the cooperation with
GAEREA, the ultimate twisted black metal experience from Portugal. This
is an impressive and most promising new band that unleashes some of the most
sickening dark and sinister black metal we heard in years! Be sure to keep a
close eye on this outstanding band, highly recommended for adepts of bands such
as Mgla, Schammasch, Bathuska, etc.!
Rui Gonçalves (RüPä), founder of this non-profit metal support agency
comments: "It's a true honour for Nekronos Promotion to announce the cooperation
with our countrymates Gaerea!
From time to time, out from the darkest pits emerge something absolutely
brilliant that will blow you away! Gaerea undoubtedly have such kind of
brilliance that shines through their most sickening dark creations! I am happy
that I kept a close ear on their work since early stage, their debut and self
titled EP and visual creations are a proof of their greatness, crafting a mysterious and rebellious
black metal art!"
GAEREA comments on this news: "Gaerea is proud to join forces
with Nekronos Promotion. Rui has been a good friend for the past year and
does a fantastic job on helping and promoting a lot of bands worldwide."
GAEREA
is a Black Metal Quintet from Portugal. Emerging in the begining of 2016, the
band signs with the Italian Label Everlasting Spew Records
and releases the debut self titled EP on the 11th November. Receiving
many praises from the worldwide press (some listed below) and stream coverage by
websites such as Metal Hammer, No Clean Singing and Cvlt Nation.
GAEREA
also spent the last year performing shows in Spain and Portugal and planning
more for 2018, sharing the stage with Gnaw Their Tongues, Lvthn and
Turia.
"Let's make one thing clear. We need to stress the fact that our era is lost
in a huge void of numbness. We are here to bring and present you what your
system could not solve by it self. We'll cover the daylight with ashes and smash
the massive skull that's blocking your brain and will to evolve. We're GAEREA."
About "GAEREA", press stated:
NO CLEAN SINGING: “It’s a dark, lumbering goliath of a song with
flashes of guitar lightning, lyrics voiced in scalding shrieks and ghastly roars,
and alluring melodies that slither like a massive python and rise up with the
shimmering appeal of an oasis mirage in a wasteland. A baleful and forbidding,
yet thoroughly beguiling, piece of music.”
METAL HAMMER GREECE: "Rhythmical drumming, depressed melodies and
riffs with total black background, and a voice bulging with despair and awakens
people minds in every lyric. The answer of Rome to Mgla and Batushka."
METAL HAMMER / SUBTERRANEA MAG: "The personification of doom and
narcissism at the same amount of time. Enter the Void"
METAL INJECTION (TREVOR STRNAD): "Gaerea provide an artfully woven
black metal landscape that is majestic, harrowing, and depressive."
TEAM ROCK: "Mystery is always welcomed within the dark arts, with
bands often choosing to either allow their music to speak for itself, and with a
self-titled EP on the cusp of release, this quintet are preparing for some of
that mystery to be broken. They may be keeping themselves hidden, but their
music needs to be heard.
