GAEREA RELEASE TODAY THE NEW ALBUM "UNSETTLING WHISPERS"!!
[2018.06.22]

Portuguese disturbing black metal entities GAEREA have released today via Transcending Obscurity Records their debut full-length album entitled "Unsettling Whispers", this is the follow up to 2016 self-titled EP that has already impressed the media worldwide.

ORDER NOW:
You can now Order for Gatefold LP / Box Set / Digipak CD / T-shirt / Digital.
Follow the links:
Transcending Obscurity Records - http://tometal.com
Bandcamp - https://gaerea.bandcamp.com



Transcending Obscurity Records label owner Kunal Choksi states, “It’s an honour to work with a fine band in Gaerea from Portugal. Much like their new label mates Jupiterian, they’ve got something special going on aesthetically and musically, and existing fans will be happy with their latest full length which is mature and just as haunting. Special thanks goes out to Tito Vespasiani for making this happen. Pre-orders for this extraordinary release will be up very soon on both CD and gatefold LP.”

"Portuguese black metal group Gaerea have made on of the year’s best black metal albums with debut full-length Unsettling Whispers. The follow up to 2016’s self-titled EP, Unsettling Whispers is haunting, generally mid-tempo black metal that separates itself from the pack thanks to hearty doses of dark melody, top notch production and skilled songwriting." Decibel Magazine

Gaerea comment, “Nearly two years after the release of our debut self-titled EP, It is now with utmost pleasure that we announce a strong collaboration with Transcending Obscurity Records to unleash a new piece of furious black art experience under the name of ‘Unsettling Whispers’. This is undoubtedly a more ambitious step and manifestly crafts the revival of the existence of Gaerea. The unsettling reflection of a dying world who just stares while in the front row of the edge of the immense abyss where death is nothing more than the restart of the same putrid routine. It’s the ultimate line who separates the individual emotions from the other ents crawling at the surface.”

Recorded by Miguel Tereso at Demigod Recordings, Portugal.
It features now the majestic handcrafted work of Stefan “Khaos Diktator Design”.

GAEREA PREMIERE NEW SONG "CYCLE OF DECAY"!
[2018.06.07]

In two weeks the Portuguese disturbing black metal entities GAEREA release their debut full-length album by the title "Unsettling Whispers", the band has premiered their new song "Cycle of Decay" via Metal Injection, check it out at their site:
http://www.metalinjection.net/av/song-premiere/gaerea-cycle-decay  |

"Gaerea superbly blends atmospheric black metal with touches of melodic death metal and sludge. This is certainly the case with a song like "Cycle of Decay," another track featured from their upcoming album, Unsettling Whispers. This terse, yet powerful, offering focuses a lot of time crafting melodies that light up given moments in its runtime. Most of them appear in the song's final half. It starts out quite ominous though. The track shifts between darker death and black metal arrangements. Then, in its final two minutes and change, it works towards ethereal and ariose motifs."

POSSESSED
COUNTRY: USA
GENRE: DEATH METAL

 

REVEAL NEW PRE-PRODUCTION DEMO TRACK "ABANDONED"!
[2018.06.30]

North American death metal godfathers POSSESSED have just revealed a Pre-album-demo-version of their new song "Abandoned". An old-school death metal delight to ones ears, and yet it's just a demo of the bands new track... in fact death metal can't get much better and direct than this!

Check out DECIBEL Magazine article on this
"Death metal godfathers Possessed have released only their second new recording in 25 years via the Decibel Flexi Series! This exclusive new demo song, “Abandoned,” was originally tracked in 2016, but it is such a ripper that simply letting it rot on a hard drive would be a crime against metal history! Jeff Becerra and company will hopefully re-record this gem for their forthcoming Nuclear Blast debut (the legends’ first LP in since 1986!), but for now, the only place you can experience it is via the Decibel Flexi Series. So, if you want this rare slice of death metal history don’t hesitate, because an extremely limited number of issues containing our 92nd installment in the Decibel Flexi Series are available here."
