• SLAŤ _ Elegie Propastná (12" LP/MC, PRE-ORDER)
  • It was only a matter of time before the paths of Doomentia Records and doom/sludge/stoner band SLAŤ would inevitably cross. An active name in the Czech underground, the group is now supported by a label that operates very close to its genre. SLAŤ was formed in 2021 in the lively underground of Brno and the line-up includes active and former members of well-known acts like Gospel of the Future, Nikander, and Kandar. A successful debut demo from the same year set the direction for SLAŤ’s future and the band is now releasing their much anticipated LP.

    SLAŤ means "peat bog" in Czech and the album Elegie propastná brings a proper mud bath. The quartet takes you on a thoroughly dismal and harrowing ride with a slow pace of traditional doom metal and a touch of more accessible stoner rock progressions, while also drowning you in icy waves of sludge. SLAŤ will pull you in with powerful sabbath-esque riffs and won't let go. Haunting female vocals are the icing on the cake. Sometimes unbridled, sometimes eerily pure, as if hanging on to the last minutes of life. The sound of SLAŤ is as heavy as the arrival of a biblical cataclysmic wave that will bury all those who refuse to sway to the beat in ecstasy.

    Elegie propastná spans forty minutes and is released by Doomentia Records on an impressive colored vinyl. For cassette tape enthusiasts, a limited edition cassette will also be released. This record will bring all to their knees, slowly but surely…

    • FAÜST _ Death Galore (LP/CD/MC, PRE-ORDER)
    • 1 of 5
  • You know you can always count on a highly-respected long term underground label like WITCHES BREW to sniff the right stuff whenever one new kid on the block rears its ugly head. After a welcome change of moniker from COLDBLOODED FISH to FAÜST in 2020, this lot of three Czech boys and one Slovak really showed the rest of the world they meant business with Tinnitus Inquisition on the German imprint, a nasty yet fresh and damn pissed debut album back in 2022.

    Shaken by their intense mix of classic crossover and thrash sound boosted by a very contemporary feel, think NUCLEAR ASSAULT attacking MUNICIPAL WASTE in a dark alley with a rusty knife, DOOMENTIA had no choice but to offer to release their next slab of violence. Preceded in August by the Where Nightmares Reign Supreme digital single - aptly described by the band members themselves as ‘this what happens when you play thrash but you really love death metal’ – their sophomore album Death Galore picks things up where its predecessor had left them and push all the buttons to eleven.

    It’s no wonder why the whole tracklisting is peppered with nods to some famous names of the extreme metal realms: ‘Entombed Alive’, ‘Diluting The Slime’ or ‘Lust Decontrol’ vividly show how they’ve smartly got out of the comfortable yet sometimes retro-thrash ghetto to fully embrace a more modern but as lethal mix or thrash and death metal with maximum results. They have arrived!

    • BLOOD INCANTATION _ Astral Spells (10" promo 2014, PRE-ORDER)
  • Every story has a beginning… Mind you, technically speaking, this wasn’t exactly THE beginning for the BLOOD INCANTATION guys. By that time, the Colorado lot been together for roughly three years and had put low-key, limited and rough sounding material and friends and family only. But one could say that it’s truly on the Astral Spells demo that BLOOD INCANTATION fully became BLOOD INCANTATION. Compiling two rough unmixed demo versions of ‘Hovering Lifeless’ and ‘Mephitic Effluvia’ and an even rougher live versions of both ‘The Vth Tablet’ and ‘Obfuscating The Linear Threshold’ it’s here for the first time that the cosmic vibe, weird guitar patterns and overall this uncanny if hard to pinpoint ‘oddness’ were all but ones, with then session member Damon Good from the mighty MOURNFUL CONGREGATION and STARGAZER, added his personal touch on fretless bass.

    Originally released in a run of 100 copies, the studio side of this tape was meant to serve as a basis for what would become their debut EP Interdimensional Extinction but due to the sound engineer losing the basic tracks, the whole things had to be remixed, thus making those first versions quite exclusive.

    With their impending album already tagged as the most expected death metal release of the year, the band felt the time was right to reissue it on vinyl and teamed up with DOOMENTIA to make it even more special. Adorned with a 10”, it includes 6-panel booklet with all the lyrics, two interviews from 2013 and 2014, archive photos and even testimonials from both Paul Riedl (guitar and vocals) and Damon Good, making this long-awaited reissue worthy of the legend BLOO INCANTATION has become ten years later.

    • NECROCOCK _ Practices of Undertakers (12" LP DEMO, PRE-ORDER)
  • Oh yeah, weird. These days, anybody can be weird. Put on a clown suit, scream at the top of our lungs, add some blips here and there and you’ll be labelled as such. Easy. But being weird in 1992 was a whole different ball game, especially if you were part of the still fresh yet somehow conservative second wave of black metal. Then again, the so-to-be founding member of KAVIAR KAVALIER and then current guitar player of the equally out-of-this-world MASTER’S HAMMER Tomás Kohout already gave shithole about conventions or so-called rules. And what happens when a twenty years old six-stringer just freshly out of the recording of eastern Europe first ever black metal masterpiece Ritual decides to throw said rules out of the window and go berserk creatively speaking just by itself? You get NECROCOCK.

    Granted, for the last two decades or so, Kohout – or one could say his insane avatar – has released no less than eight albums under this moniker, each crazier than its predecessor, including 2023’s Tafelmusik. So from a contemporary point of view, NECROCOCK very first recording may seem a tad more conventional. But as strongly suggested by its OOP moniker, Practices Of Undertakers proves in retrospect that the versatile musician (who performs every instrument here, making it a true solo work) was already all about fucking shit up and dancing around the flames while the rest of kept watching, in awe. The basic elements are all here, mind you – croaked vocals, fuzzy guitar sound, demonic stance and creepy keyboards. All ‘so 90s’. Yet, the way they’re all assembled and seemingly twisted beyond recognition – in one word, weird – remains to this day absolutely unique.

    Practices Of Undertakers ain’t just one extremely valuable document for all KAVIAR KAVALIER and early MASTER’S HAMMER fans out there, it’s one of the best ever demo to come out of the early 90’s Czech extreme metal scene. And this one-of-a-kind recording is now lovingly and carefully reissued officially for the first time by your ever reliable DOOMENTIA imprint.

    • SCHIZOPHRENIA _ Chants of the Abyss (12" EP)
  • To say that Belgium’s SCHIZOPHRENIA took the underground by storm would be an understatement. Ever since their first EP Voices four years ago and the following insanely intense debut album in 2022, those starving youngsters have reinjected a much need sense of urgency and danger in the otherwise now quite mundane territory separating thrash from death metal. By using elements of both and adding their own twist and fury to them, hey’ve become one of the hottest bands around. They may have spent most of 2023 with over 80 shows played all over Europe and be working, as we speak, on their second full-length yet they still did find time to record a very special EP, first released digitally and on self released CD but now available as a lavish, cut at 45 RPM speed to ensure the best sound quality possible LP thanks to DOOMENTIA.

    Meant to salute their wide range of influences, Chants Of The Abyss was destined to be a quite large selection of styles. And indeed, by opening the hostilities with a raging SLAYER tune (‘Necrophiliac’), the very first cover they worked on for this tribute, before switching to death metal (MORBID ANGEL’s immortal ‘Maze Of Torment’), classic heavy-metal (JUDAS PRIEST’s ‘Metal Meltdown’) and horror punk (MISFITS’ ‘Bullet’) before paddling back to old-school thrash (EXODUS ‘Strike Of The Beast’) and concluding on a hardcore note (GBH’s ‘Race Against Time’), it goes above and beyond its duty.

    We’re not talking here of mere, carbon copy lazy covers but actual performances done with gusto, as if all those songs were theirs and freshly out of the rehearsal room. By paying homage to the godz, SCHIZOPHRENIA solidify their position as their legitimate heirs.

    • PHANTOM _ Handed to Execution (CD DIGIPACK)
    • 1 of 5
  • After a trio of demo recordings and a split project with Kill Witch, Malicious Intent, Anti-Criss and Praefator, Mexican thrashers Phantom finally released a full-length album in 2023. Put simply, this is the sort of lethal assault that used to turn up on mid-80s speed metal compilations whereby said artist would rip your ears off then disappear, never to return.

    Guadalajara-based Phantom has that vicious vintage flavour; scathing, zipping bursts of spiteful energy that frantically weave their wiry way through your veins with acidic aplomb. It’s essentially no frills nastiness but with a vigour and vim channelled through frothing riffs and ravenous percussion.

    The whole torrential downpour is headed by the usual vocal lashing from J.C. Necrohex, but on the whole it’s such an enjoyable. The tracks are driven by raw streaks of hellish hostility. In a time machine is this gem in the racks alongside Hallows Eve, Sentinel Beast et al; a lo-fi yet ripping entity sure to raise the dead. Released on CD with the highest standards available by DOOMENTIA.

    • PHANTOM _ Transylvanian Nightmare (CD DIGIPACK)
  • Halfway in between SORCERY’s Bloodchilling Tales, the famous Diablo videogame and a spinoff of Masters Of The Universe, Transylvanian Nightmare striking handmade artwork lets you know right away what the name of the game is doesn’t it? Those Mexican warriors may have started right after Covid and they surely didn’t stop since, this four-tracks EP being the follow-up to their debut album, Handed Execution and no less than three demos… Far being productive for the sake of it, it was actually a matter of forging (in fire) their own brand of classic speed and thrash metal and strike the iron while it was still hot. Hence Transylvanian Nightmare boiling like an unbridled volcano, ready to explode in your face…

    While the guitar solos and classic heavy metal arrangements abound here, PHANTOM undeniable biggest strength is their out-for-vengeance energy and neck-breaking pace. If the instrumental “Epitaph” features delicate acoustic arrangements and heart-breaking soaring melodies, the title-track is one ripping early-SLAYER like savage ride whereas closer “Raging Pyres” even adds hints of proto-death à la ONSLAUGHT to make sure no-one is left alive once those 19 minutes are over.

    Released on CD with the highest standards available by DOOMENTIA, Transylvanian Nightmare is far just into a nostalgia trip but one fantastic METAL (yes, in capital letters) assault, so true to the vivid sound of 1986/87 speed/thrash metal than one could think the last thirty-five years had never existed!

    • MASSACRE _ Tri-pocalypse (7" EP)
    • 1 of 9
  • It’s not that often that you get the chance to work with a true legend, even more so for a special release. Hence DOOMENTIA pride to announce the upcoming release of a very special EP for the legendary death metal act MASSACRE in two different formats with exclusive content and tracklisting.

    Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the last thirty years or so, MASSACRE should need no introduction. Not only have the Orlando-based band helped build the very foundations death metal was built upon in the late 80’s, not only have they put out one of the genre best debut ever with From Beyond but ever since Kam Lee has rightfully regained control and firmly put his hands on the steering wheel with 2021 massive Resurgence album, they’ve decided to play the game according to their rules.

    Besides working with a rotating line-up of musicians (incl. Jonny Pettersson from WOMBBATH and Rogga from PAGANIZER among others) according to the situation, either be it in the studio or live, they’ve chosen to carefully put out on a regular basis high-quality and limited EPs instead of the regular album/touring cycle. Tri-pocalypse is once ready to set the bar even higher.

    A well-known huge horror movie fan, Lee has decided to pay tribute to the three apocalyptic films by director John Carpenter, namely ‘The Thing’, ‘Prince Of Darkness’ and ‘In The Mouth Of Madness’ which all served as a direct aesthetic and lyrical source of inspiration, especially since all three were themselves hugely influenced by Howard Philips Lovecraft writings, one of MASSACRE favourite lyrical theme. The outro (‘Escape From The End Of The World’) was specifically created for this EP by composer Rob Reider, in the style of Carpenter original soundtracks.

    Says Lee: “I’m excited for fans to get a hold of this new EP in physical format, because that’s the true way it’s meant for it to be represented. Both versions are awesome and I encourage everyone to try and get both the vinyl and CD copies. It’s a must for the collectors and completionist. The music style still resonates an old school death metal sound veering only slightly from its early roots and continues to combine a mixture of the classic Florida death metal style with a contemporary Swedish death metal sound. 

    Compared to the vinyl, the CD version has two exclusive remixed and rerecorded versions of ‘They Never Die’ and ‘Beyond The Dunwich Hills’, two songs originally included on a supra-limited self-produced CD last year. If the first one is an homage to the vampriric mythology, the second one is directly inspired by the tabletop RPG series Arkham Horror and is a kind of sequel to the song ‘The Dunwich Horror’ from 2022 EP Mythos.
