in stock! CIRRHUS 'Reh. May 2nd 2009' on PRO-CASS.
Bloody Melodic Black Metal Epiphany!

A New rehearsal cassette from Cirrhus (on CW productions). Featuring a quality rehearsal done months ago. Before getting too abstract we should say that these are brains that have been to the bottom and back, and have only hung on to what is worthy of remembering. Thus, the high taste is born! The making of melodic, twisted, heart spiking black metal onto raw analog means is done. Ghost horses circle in dance, rust covers the blade in fast forward, this is black metal that sounds like what destroyed me long ago. The polish, the french, those romantic fucking sick perverts!

OUT NOW! Volahn "Dimensiones del Trance Kosmico" LP (KLX-016)
An instant classic. Black metal of the truest spirit.

Volahn makes their first statement in music, and the voice virtually silences everything else. It is familiar, deep - what is said has a necessary and true meaning. Anyone who experienced Volahn on their recent US Tour knows what to expect: black metal that competes on every level. You can hear that the music is created with the utmost taste and knowledge of what makes black metal effective. Here you have influences from early Dodheimsgard and Blut Aus Nord, Les Legiones Noires, Ulver, Xibalba, as well as Ashdautas and the other Black Twilight related projects from Long Beach area in California. Although the wide range of inspiration creates a diverse form of black metal, the execution is concise and done with masterful technicality.

Volahn are also effective in transcending the context from which they come. The music is recorded in 2008 but sounds of an ancient spirit that has faded long ago. The music is contemporary, but it is lyrically concerned with ancient cultures, rituals, and a time when the spirit world was only a knife or drug away. The music is new, but it will mean the same thing now as it did then, in 4 hours, and in ten years. Rest assured that in listening to 'Dimensiones' you are listening to timeless black metal.

The heavy weight LP comes in a handsome all black with silver print jacket. Included are insert and album poster. Remember to keep an eye out for new releases on the Crepusculo Negro label for more releases of the Black Twilight circle. Soon in stock we will have the Ariz Menda cassette (which klaxon will do on double LP) and the Axeman cassette in limited quantities.


 
BONE AWL 'all has red' has been re-released
pro cassette on red shells with color cover
Just released and in stock: BONE AWL "All Has Red" cassette. The cassette features 10 old songs and 1 new song recorded in a rehearsal setting. Expect only powerful fidelity with rough edges. The songs span across many previous Bone Awl releases but are presented here in a new light with a more intimate, 'LIVE' sound.

This version of AHR was released for the recent Bone Awl US Tour and a major reason for taking on such a large task was to show that Bone Awl has nothing to hide. The band is always referred to as 'mysterious' yet the band takes little effort to create such a mystique. Perhaps simply because the band doesn't go around befriending everyone and running their mouth online, the public is confounded. So presented as the cover of the reissue are clear, color photos of each band member. You get the same privelege as the people who came out to see the tour. You can see our faces, you can know everything about us, but the real mystery of Bone Awl is hidden in the cracks.

THERE IS NO BONE AWL MYSPACE
An easy assumption has confused those already confused.
Any myspace page that has Bone Awl's music on it is fraudulent. There has been confusion with people messaging and looking at the page assuming that it was created by Bone Awl. This is, of course, not the case, it is run by someone who isn't busy enough being themselves. Please understand that Bone Awl would never promote itself in a such a way.

Every question that someone has about Bone Awl that remains unanswered has a very loud silent answer that you should safely assume. That answer is 'NO!'. If you have considered it, so have we, and if it doesn't exist, it doesn't for a serious reason. We are thinking about Bone Awl harder than you, believe me.

OUT NOW! EMPIRE OF HATE 'Visions of a Better Time' 7"
KLX-014 is out now! Australian black metal.
KLAXON is proud to announce the release of 'Visions of a Better Time', Empire of Hate's first vinyl and first official release since their split cassette released last year. The recordings here again illustrate their confident and strong grasp of black metal like all of their other previous material.

Empire of Hate's attention seems dead focused on atmosphere and creating a fluid sound to the instrumentation, but unlike most bands who choose this route, gripping song structure is still intact. They are not a band that flaunts their strength superficially but rather allows it to be felt in the mastery of all the involved elements.
JUST RELEASED: Odal 'On Old Paths' Gatefold CD
KLX-012 OUT NOW! in highest quality cardboard carton
Klaxon is very proud to announce the release of our first CD, ODAL 'On Old Paths'. This release serves to collect the earliest works of the group, showcasing their demo, 'Germansk', their first EP, 'Traitor' (originally on Christhunt), their second EP 'Fimbulwinter' (Originally on Sombre), as well as a track from their 5 way split 10”; all of which have become scarce since their release. The tracks featured here show ODAL in their most RAW state, and in our opinion, most potent – a clear progression to their amazing debut album 'Sturmes Brut'.

In their music, you can tell that ODAL harness an intuitive and confident understanding of black metal as a form. All of the pieces in the right place, every maneuver pulled off with style, and always escalating to the appropriate heights within a song. The tone never strays far from romance into the technical or stygian. The music is, in that sense, very beautiful. From their viewpoint in life, death looks gorgeous and full of excitement and this sensitivity is expressed effectively throughout every riff. They are consistent too, in their atmosphere, and somehow combine feelings of triumph, sadness, and anger together into one beam.

All of this sound is captured in perfect, self-made production. A charming sound full of the glow from an analog home studio: that perfect middle ground of fidelity and warm distortion. This is certainly some of the best black metal Germany has ever produced.

For those unfamiliar, ODAL have been active in the German underground since 1999 (before as ASKE since 1995), and have since released a number of EPs and albums. ODAL's frontman, Taaken, is a restless soul in Germany, partaking in many other black metal projects alongside ODAL. Some of those include Barastir, Erhabenheit, Wolfsschrei, and surely many more. Klaxon has taken the time to stock many related releases of Taaken and ODAL and they can be found in our distribution section.

Note: before 'On Old Paths' was released, a south American bootleg CD (namely ”Warriors of the Night”) existed showcasing the same tracks. Our release serves not only to spread the great music of ODAL, but also to put an end to this cheap and poorly manufactured bootleg by officially reissuing the tracks in perfect quality, mastered from the original source.

BONE AWL 'Almost Dead Man' KLX-010 CS OUT NOW!
available in distro section
Another regression for Bone Awl, expect even more stripped-down thuds of Black Metal, sinking deeper into the depths of tape distortion. Here is their latest release: A 9-song mini album recorded in 2007. This cassette is unlimited and home-dubbed. Copies are available one per customer, and only through KLAXON.

DEATHCHURCH 'Unsilent Hate Anthem' 7" OUT NOW!
The final dying blast.
The final screams from the void can be heard here. Deathchurch's last gasp. After delays, their first and last 7" is now available. Expect a cacophany of dissonant, suffocating, and noisy black metal. Like a howling wind combination of Black Witchery and S.O.B. Absolutely brutal in the most underground ways. A collaboration release on black vinyl between Klaxon and Nuclear War Now!
