A little late on this one but that’s okay – it’s still up for pre-order. The newest from Unearthly Trance promises to be a fierce affair, if the new track on their myspace.com is any indication of what we can expect. This comes out on September 28th, and you can currently pre-order it at relapse.com. Maybe add [...]

Sorry guys, we don’t always exactly breaks the news over here at OMGV. Usually not that big of a deal but when it’s a band we’ve championed as hard as Grails… for shame! These two long out-of-print albums from one of the best bands in existence today are now available to order on the vinyl [...]

Don’t see a lot of 7″s coming from this band, but any excuse to put some Baizley art on a record sleeve is a good excuse by me. “A Horse Called Golgotha” from The Blue Album gets the single treatment, complete with an exclusive b-side cover of a Descendents track. Not much to turn your [...]

If you’re into noise rock, this three-way split from Brutal Panda records is going to be like a dream come true for you.  They’ve collected three of the best in the game, Kowloon Walled City, Fight Amp, and Ladder Devils, each band contributing two brand new songs.  Total Dinosaur Jr. / Young Widows vibes here, [...]

Let’s ease on into the week with a couple of heavy metal 7″s, shall we? First up is a pre-order for a brand new split 7″ from two misanthropic one man black metal acts: Moloch and Glass Coffin. Moloch just got off tour with Thou, so you know this fellow brings the phlegm-specked hatred, and [...]

Raging metal from Oslo, now primed for distribution on American shores. Of course, this LP has been out for a little while at ormeyngel.bigcartel.com, not sure what took it so long to make it over here. Rough sailing I suppose. Those in need of a dose of evil can now fill their prescriptions at stickfiguredistro.com. The [...]

Necrotic, filthy metal from Madrid. The original pressing has been difficult (read: expensive) to track down, so folks who were too scared to order the first time better jump on this most recent pressing – which is likely to vanish back into the Ebay ether in very short order. Timo Ketola’s artwork on this release [...]

The Lord’s vinyl continues to flow into the hands of the faithful. The most recent offering is a 2xLP edition of Twilight’s most recent album. A studio supergroup of sorts – the new Twilight lineup adds Aaron Turner, Sanford Parker, and Stavros Giannopolous to the mix and results in a heavy, dark and glorious sound. Aaron [...]

Holy hell I would hate for you guys to miss another Hydra Head vinyl release but I’m afraid a color or two might disappear before this gets posted up in the morning. So it goes. You all know about Torche, right? Heavy metal pop music or something like that? Right. This new eight track vinyl [...]

Big bang black metal, indeed. Dominick Fernow unleashes the soundtrack for the birth of the universe – death metal grunts and black metal screeches compete with *gasp* clean singing atop a barrage of blast beats and extreme riffage. You’ve seen it on CD and cassette, now own it on vinyl, finally. $18 in the USA [...]

The name of the band is Bongripper. The name of the album is Satan Worshipping Doom. I’m not really certain what other hyperbole I could throw at this release to help you wrap your head around what lies within these vinyl grooves. Elucidation can be sought at bongripper.bandcamp.com. Fulfillment can be obtained at bongripper.com.

I’ve been spinning this record pretty heavily ever since it showed up, it’s beyond impressive in spots.  Vulture Industries hail from Norway and “The Dystopia Journals” was originally released on CD in 2007.  Thankfully, Ragnarok has given it the proper vinyl release it deserves.  This is wildly imaginative progressive metal, sometimes veering into black or [...]

Call it throwback metal if you must, but I’d call the musical output of Olympia, Washington’s Christian Mistress an invigorating shot in the arm for a genre that can tend to go stale and flat pretty quickly. There’s certainly more than nostalgia prompting Darkthrone’s Fenriz to name drop the band every chance he gets – [...]

More vile death metal from Doomentia, four bands cut to two seven inch pieces of vinyl. The great Hooded Menace sharing a side with Coffins, and another seven inch splitting sides between Swarming and Zombie Ritual. Swarming is a side project of Lasse from Hooded Menace, and Zombie Ritual are obsessed with zombies and are [...]

In case you didn’t know, Hooded Menace are churning out some of the most abominable metal available right now, straight out of Finland. Pretty sure the only thing keeping the band members alive currently is embalming fluid and Hammer horror movies. Last year’s Never Cross The Dead was such an amazing album, the only thing [...]
