Helmuth comments: "We've rearranged and re-recorded a medley of two songs off the »BLUTSABBATH« album [1997] as a promotional single for the re-release of our first two full-length LPs due 14th January 2022 in double CD and single LP formats. Florian Klein, aka Torturer, tracked the drums, and the “BLACKEST SABBATH 1997” was mixed & mastered at Jens Bogren´s Fascination Street studios in Örebro, Sweden. It was a thrilling experiment to re-record this song I wrote in 1996 with a new soundwall, our current skills and recording capabilities 25 years later. We hail you demons, enjoy this special offering from us!"




BELPHEGOR RE-RELEASE FIRST TWO ALBUMS "THE LAST SUPPER" (1995) AND "BLUTSABBATH" (1997) ON JANUARY 14TH!

Both albums have been remastered by Andy Classen and will be available in a variety of versions featuring uncensored artwork.

DIABOLICAL - TOUR ANNOUNCEMENT - BLACK LITURGY PILGRIMAGE 2022!
[2021.12.30]

Following the very successful Black Rituals tour in northern/central Europe this fall, The blackened death metallers DIABOLICAL are proud to announce that the band was invited by BATUSHKA to join another journey, this time focusing more on the southern regions of our continent.

The band comments: "It has been 3 years since we visited many of these regions (and even longer since BATUSHKA were there) so we are obviously looking forward to these concerts very much.
Since this will be a part of our 25 years anniversary celebrations, we are looking to bring some tunes to life that we haven't played for some time, but also some new material of course.
These will be great shows, joined by our friends in Warhammer, Vananidr from Stockholm, as well as Paradise In Flames and Eshtadur that are both coming all the way from South America to support the Black Liturgy Tour!
Please share the dates with your friends!
Looking forward to see you in April!"

DIABOLICAL - FINISH EUROPEAN TOUR WITH BELPHEGOR AND BATUSHKA!
[2021.12.09]

The blackened death metallers DIABOLICAL have just finished their Black Rituals Tour 2021 with bands such as BATUSHKA, BELPHEGOR, ALMOST DEAD, WARHAMMER, and IMPALEMENT!

The band comments: "END OF THE ROAD!
Having spent 4 weeks on the road, playing 21 shows in 12 different countries, we are now finally back home in Stockholm. Big thanks to the great, persistent and consistent bands that that delivered the goods every single day: Batushka, Belphegor, Almost Dead, Warhammer , Impalement
But an even bigger thanks obviously goes to the whole road crew on this tour who did an amazing job of keeping this tour going nice and smooth, although conditions changed from day to day. Thanks also to Vadim and Jon at THE FLAMING ARTS AGENCY for solving the issues that came up frequently regarding new regulations and restrictions.
Obviously we also have to thank the many great promotors involved in this tour, who kept going and made the shows happen despite the problems that the Covid-situation brought to them. Fantastic job!
This was in many ways a very hard tour for many of the people mentioned above, and they deserve tons of respect for pulling it off.
But, in the end, it is also maybe the most rewarding tour we ever did. After 1.5 years of no live-activity from our side, we could go out and see clearly that the scene is very much alive. Huge thanks to the many fans that came out every night! We had more sold out shows than we can remember on any previous tour we did, and almost every night we had more people coming to the gigs than we had expected. So, our biggest gratitude goes to all the people that came out and showed that we are alive and well! We will make it happen again!"
