BLACK ALTAR BIOGRAPHY
Anno Bastardi 1996
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.
1997
The first stroke into their rotten system of values was a demo entitled "Na
Uroczysku..." (On a secret place..) which gained a recognition among several
groups of listeners. It was recorded by Shadow in 1997 at Selani
Studio with the help of Doc (RIP), Vader's drummer, in the role of a
music engineer. Released under Shadow's own label - Odium Rec.,

Altar popular in Poland and in other countries as well.

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 released a limited to 666 copies hand-numbered with

Salvation" and for the split Black Altar/Varathron/Thornspawn during
the same session.

Darkened Call” split was finally unleashed by Odium Records as a

HATE - ON
MORBIDFEST EUROPEAN TOUR 2022! [2022.02.22]
Mighty Polish blackened death cultists HATE
will embark on MORBIDFEST European tour 2022 with BELPHEGOR
and I AM
MORBID.
The tour will be headlined by the mighty I Am Morbid, MORBIDFEST Tour 2022
is dedicated to the 30-year anniversary of the release of the "Blessed are
the Sick" album. Initially announced for 2021, the MORBIDFEST Tour
had to be postponed due to the pandemic. But, it’s finally happening in 2022
with even higher anticipation!
Formed by DAVID VINCENT, the legendary, long-time frontman (vocalist &
bassist) of the genre-defining extreme metal purveyors, MORBID ANGEL, I AM
MORBID performs Vincent-era classics from Morbid Angel’s "Altars of
Madness", "Blessed Are The Sick", "Covenant" and "Domination" albums.
MORBIDFEST Tour 2022 will include a touring package supported by two very
special guests,
BELPHEGOR and HATE.
Since 1993, the Austrian death/black metal gods BELPHEGOR
have been delivering their select diabolical death musick, and one album after
another has nailed down the tightest black/death performances. The band's lyrics
tirelessly explore the darkest, most dismal parts of demonology, witchcraft, and
the grand devil, himself.
The Polish blackened death outfit, HATE,
will perform their new album "Rugia" which was released via Metal Blade Records
in the summer of 2021. The band offers European tribes to taste new songs of
pure blasphemy inspired by archaic Slavic themes and mythologies, as well as
best works from "Auric Gates of Veles" live within a massive lineup.

DEVILISH IMPRESSIONS COUNTRY: POLAND
GENRE: BLACK DEATH METAL
NeKronos Promotion is Proud to present the band of the NeKroWeek band
DEVILISH IMPRESSIONS (Poland) some of the
most innovative modern black /
death metal acts, a band of extreme metal excellence!
Show your support and share this info to all your metal brotherhood if you like what you have heard!
Music wise "Postmortem Whispering Crows" simply continues where “The
I” left off. Having introduced some rock-like solos on the latest
full-length these unreleased tracks seem to be characterized by even more open
approach to the genre. "Postmortem Whispering Crows" is an epic journey
across black death metal with the band's own, unique flare to it.
Quazarre (vocals / guitars) comments: “One of my all-time greatest inspirations has always been literature of The
Young Poland (a modernist period in Polish literature, covering roughly the
years between 1890 and 1918). The movement promoted trends of decadence,
neo-romanticism, symbolism, catastrophism and impressionism. Having quoted
‘Dzieci Szatana’ (Satans Kinder) by one of the period’s visionary Stanisław
Przybyszewski within the lyrics of our “Adventvs” EP, it’s been a logical
way for me to immerse both ‘The I’ and ‘Postmortem Whispering Crows’
EP even deeper into the decadent world of other haunted figures associated
with the philosophy of their leader. The quoted authors following the period’s
concept believed in decadence, an end of all culture, the conflict between
humans and their civilization, and the concept of art as the highest value.”
Formed in the year 2000, initially as a studio project and transformed into a
live act in 2006, Devilish Impressions is a dominant four-piece Epic
Black Death metal band that’s quickly pummeling through the genre and making
their way to fans and media around the globe.
Since the horde’s first day, the notion of freedom of choice and will has been a
highly prevalent belief and theme amongst the band’s music, imagery and overall
message. Devilish Impressions united and began the process of shaping up
their spirit and self-consciousness making their initial presence with their
debut demo “Eritis sicut Deus; Verbum Diaboli Manet in Aeternum; Vox
Vespertilio Act I – Moon Var Dies Irae” which received great attention from
fans after the band self-released it in 2002.
Once Devilish Impressions made their introduction to the metal community,
they followed up their debut release with their first full-length titled
“Plurima Mortis Imago” released in 2006 via Conquer Records. The
sophomore release proved to push the band onward as they joined forces with
Aeternus for the European “Ageless Void Tour 2006”. A lot of great
exposure landed Devilish Impressions a spot as direct support for
Marduk on the “Swords in The East” Eastern European run in 2007.
After solid touring opportunities and album promotion, Devilish Impressions
returned to the studio in May of 2007 to record their forthcoming album
titled “Diabolicanos – Act III: Armageddon” which was mastered by Andy
Classen at Stage One Studio (Belphegor, Krisiun, Dew Scented).
Before release of their full-length sophomore album, Devilish Impressions
appeared at the Red Alert Festival supporting bands like Deicide,
Suffocation, Benediction and Immolation. The band followed up by ending 2007
with a headliner run across Eastern Europe on the “Verbum Diaboli Tour 2007”.
Once “Diabolicanos – Act III: Armageddon” was released in 2008 via
Conquer Records, international praise was given by fans and press to the
band for the record, and allowed Devilish Impressions to reach new
heights in their career. The band followed up with the great success of the
album by landing a support slot on “The Apostasy European Tour” with
Behemoth and Suicide Silence as well as embarking on a tour with
Dismember in the UK and Ireland.
In 2008, Devilish Impressions was invited to partake on select shows of
“Wacken Road Show 2008” with Overkill, Tristania, Samael and Enslaved.
This opened up a solid platform for the band to release “Diabolicanos – Act
III: Armageddon” via Empire Records and greatly expand the reach of
the band’s music. The band followed up this release with a joint home country
tour called “Rebel Angels Tour Vol. 3” with Hate. The rest of 2008
proved to be extremely proactive for the band as they supported Satyricon,
were offered a co-headliner slot with Rage at Pro Rock Festival
and also appeared at Metal Heads Mission Festival with Moonspell,
Gorgoroth and Samael.
Once the band had reached this level in their career, they took time to get back
into the studio to work on their third full-length album. A lot of time and
energy was put into the new album, and “Simulacra” was released in 2012
via Lifeforce Records (EU/North America), Icaros Records (Poland),
MSR Productions (Russia, CIS) and Mort Productions (China). The
album was voted one of the best melodic black metal/metalgaze album at the 2012
Metal Storm Awards, and of course coupled with ample press and fan feedback from
around the globe. This also got the attention of The Flaming Arts Agency
that allowed the band to explore many new opportunities.
Devilish Impressions took to the road heavily in support of
“Simulacra” and appeared at notable festivals and predominant tour listed
below: · Hard Rock Laager (w/ Samael, Melechesh)
· Carpathian Alliance (co-headliner w/ Dark Funeral, Carpathian Forest)
· Castle Party
· Brutal East
· “Fear No Gods of The East Tour 2013”
· Wave Gotik Treffen (w/ Paradise Lost, Lacrimosa)
· Metal Fest Open Air (w/ Helloween, Accept, Sodom, Down, Satyricon, Destruction)
In the summer of 2013, Devilish Impressions ramped up for their next
studio session and made plans to re-enter Hertz Studio for their
forthcoming “Adventvs” EP. The new material was mixed and mastered by
Arkadiusz Malczewski at Sound Division Studio (Behemoth, Decapitated).
To round off a grandioso release, Devilish Impressions had their 2002
demo “Eritis Sicvt Devs” re-mastered and paired with “Adventvs”.
The combined album released in 2014 features over an hour of brand new and never
before heard material showcasing experimental black metal at its finest. Soon
after Devilish Impressions went on the road in support of “Adventvs”,
they got the attention from Hammerheart Records that released
“Adventvs” as 12” MLP in February 2015.
The emissaries of the devil took the surge of action with the album and hit the
road once again, spreading their message across the motherland as part of the
tour with Christ Agony and Beheaded. Shortly after, the band appeared at
NCM Festival Vol. 4 (co-headliner w/ Vader) and Dark Fest II (w/ Vader,
Decapitated, Hate and more). This left the passion raging on all levels and
gave Devilish Impressions an easy return to the studio in May 2015 to
commence the recording sessions for “The I” – the band’s fourth
full-length album which is said to be their darkest, heaviest and most
intriguing offering to date. The record features special guest appearances by
Mike Wead (Mercyful Fate, King Diamond) and Ares (Aeternus, ex-Gorgoroth,
ex-Immortal).
The title chosen, “The I”, for the record is not only a phonetic acronym
of the band’s name, but above all it reflects the manifesto they stand for since
the Horde’s inception in the year 2000 – the notion of freedom of choice and
will. A supremacy of an individual over any external factors being imposed on us
by others, with special emphasis on religion and its convictions, dogmas and
paradigms. “The I” is a rebellious manifesto targeted against all those
who stand opposed to anything that drives us towards individual perfection.
Ahead of the album’s release Devilish Impressions announced a long
awaited tour for their legion of fans in China and Taiwan supporting the
“Simulacra” record, released in China through Mort Productions in
September 2016. The trek lasted for nearly a month and is believed to be the
most extensive tour any foreign metal band had ever played there.
In the meantime, Devilish Impressions joins the roster of New York based
Extreme Management Group alongside notable bands such as Suffocation, Cattle
Decapitation, Origin, Cryptopsy, Atheist, Rings Of Saturn, King Parrot, Internal
Bleeding and many more. With the newfound partnership, both sides worked
together in making the band’s future endeavors the most prominent and impactful
with their fans respectively and the rest of the metal genre.
“The I” album hits the stores on September 22nd 2017, again via
Lifeforce Records. Released to a rave reviews worldwide it enables
Devilish Impressions to hit the road with Norway’s Endezzma for a row
of gigs across their motherland. This was followed by the group’s headlining
appearance at Metal Head’s Mission / Black Sea Storm Festival 2018.
In January 2019 Devilish Impressions headlined Dark Winter Meeting
Festival in Malta. June saw them touring South Asia, this time around
reaching out to fans in Indonesia (The Karnival Festival, co-headliner
with Pestilence), Hong Kong and Singapore.
Upon their return from Asia Devilish Impressions announced signing with
Non Serviam Records for the release of “Postmortem Whispering Crows”
EP – a follow up to their critically acclaimed 4th studio record “The I”.
Music wise “Postmortem Whispering Crows” simply continues where “The
I” left off. Having introduced some rock-like solos on the latest
full-length these unreleased tracks seem to be characterized by even more open
approach to the genre. “Postmortem Whispering Crows” set to be out in
September 13th 2019 is an epic journey across Black Death Metal with the band’s
own, unique flare to it.
The band has recently confirmed its appearance at Metal Mine Festival in
August (w/ Asphyx, Harakiri For The Sky) with European tour in the making.

BELPHEGOR RE-RELEASE TODAY THE FIRST TWO ALBUMS

Diabolical Black Death Metal troop BELPHEGOR have
re-released today their their first two albums "The Last Supper" from 1995 and "Blutsabbath"
Nuclear Blast Records!
Helmuth states:"This month 26 years ago we released our first full
length LP, titled "THE LAST SUPPER". Brutal soundcollages with one of the most
taboo designs in the extreme Metal genre, showing a sliced Jesus fetus on the
front cover.
Both albums combatted censorship and criticism from the mainstream. Many shops
and distros refused to put these LP´s on their shelves. Wicked times back then.
Freedom of speech must be guaranteed when it comes to art. Crush censorship!"
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!"
