💥COSMOPHAGE - Sidereal Malignancy CD & T-shirt💥

Available from the Blood Harvest webshop & Bandcamp.

Available in the US from NWN! Productions, Iron Fortress Records and more...

Honoring that ever-apt title, here do COSMOPHAGE mangle mind and body with gutted 'n' angular DEATH METAL of a most mid-'90s vintage. The spectre of Sinister looms large here, but the Dutch legends' classic works more so form a foundation for COSMOPHAGE ​to find their own voice. And indeed they do across these six songs - slashing one minute, stomping the next, working in walking-backwards riffing as well as copious displays of brute strength, but always with a view ​to violate expectations of where a song could go next. Not so much "tech" as just "fully fried," Sidereal Malignancy is a bountiful feast for death metal diehards who prize brainy brutality and suitably crushing production.

💥AEDES - Odious Imprecation 12", CD & Cassette💥

AEDES' focus is firmly within the wider '90s death metal pantheon. It's not unjust to suggest that the spectre of Morbid Angel looms large over Odious Imprecation; from murky, almost-in-reverse riffing to cyclonic descents into the abyss to leads that are melodic yet mind-melted, the altars are indeed full of madness and the sick are dutifully blessed. Still, this deep understanding of the elder gods extends more to songwriting and texture rather than replication of someone else's glories - and AEDES stir their cauldron with the poise and intention of adepts. Trainspotters might also reference the angularity of '90s Immolation or the "refined barbarity" of Peru's Mortem or especially the truer-than-true Sadistic Intent, but the four songs comprising the 24-minute Odious Imprecation lay out plenty of diabolic terrain on which to tread. And tread further AEDES soon will, for the band are currently preparing their debut album for BLOOD HARVEST!

Originally released digitally in October 2024, Sidereal Malignancy announced the rebirth of COSMOPHAGE. Previously, under the moniker Utterance, the Brazilian band had released the two-song Conflagration EP in 2019 - a tantalizingly short teaser of the band's potential. That potential has now blossomed on Sidereal Malignancy. Honoring that ever-apt title, here do COSMOPHAGE mangle mind and body with gutted 'n' angular DEATH METAL of a most mid-'90s vintage. The spectre of Sinister looms large here, but the Dutch legends' classic works more so form a foundation for COSMOPHAGE ​to find their own voice. And indeed they do across these six songs - slashing one minute, stomping the next, working in walking-backwards riffing as well as copious displays of brute strength, but always with a view ​to violate expectations of where a song could go next.

BLOOD HARVEST RECORDS is proud to announce the signing of Finnish AEDES to the label roster. In anticipation of the band's upcoming debut album, we present a worldwide edition of AEDES' magnificent debut mini-album, Odious Imprecation, on CD, 12" vinyl, and cassette tape formats.
Release date: January 31, 2025.

Formed in 2023, Finland's AEDES immediately made their name known in the death metal underground with their debut mini-album, Odius Imprecation, self-released later that very year. The quintet's resume is quite varied - Verge, Foreseen, Rivette, Initiated, and Force Kill are but a few - but with AEDES, the focus is firmly within the wider '90s death metal pantheon. It's not unjust to suggest that the spectre of Morbid Angel looms large over Odious Imprecation; from murky, almost-in-reverse riffing to cyclonic descents into the abyss to leads that are melodic yet mind-melted, the altars are indeed full of madness and the sick are dutifully blessed. Still, this deep understanding of the elder gods extends more to songwriting and texture rather than replication of someone else's glories - and AEDES stir their cauldron with the poise and intention of adepts. Trainspotters might also reference the angularity of '90s Immolation or the "refined barbarity" of Peru's Mortem or especially the truer-than-true Sadistic Intent, but the four songs comprising the 24-minute Odious Imprecation lay out plenty of diabolic terrain on which to tread. And tread further AEDES soon will, for the band are currently preparing their debut album for BLOOD HARVEST!

Sharper, strangely concise, and yet also more mind-bending, Telluric Sepsis is prime progressive-leaning Death Metal that never loses sight of the original essence of DEATH METAL. The songwriting found within the nine-song / 43-minute album slices & sluices with deadly precision, keeping momentum always moving forward but equally unsettling the listener; linear trajectories are to be found here, but the sum effect is swarming and cyclonic.
Feel the lacerating vibrations of NOGOTHULA and behold their labyrinthian sunken spires!

BLOOD HARVEST RECORDS is proud to present the highly anticipated second album of Australia's CONTAMINATED, Celebratory Beheading, on CD, vinyl LP, and cassette tape formats.

Back in 2017, CONTAMINATED loudly and sickly announced their arrival onto the international Death Metal map with their debut album, Final Man. Ichor-dripping DEATH METAL of a most diseased & disgusting hue. At every angle and across every moment, Final Man spewed filth; song titles like "Mired in S**t," "Boneless Mass," and "Co-Opted Into Worthless Sludge" soundly proved that content met form.

In the past six years CONTAMINATED have only released two new songs, but now, finally, they return with a long-awaited second album, Celebratory Beheading. Upping the disgusting stakes yet again with its cover art, Celebratory Beheading literally explodes into being, blasting its filth fast and free before bringing in stomping-yet-angular breakdowns and a whole host of gut-churning intensity. In many ways, Celebratory Beheading's clearly-framed cover mirrors CONTAMINATED's sonic shift; whereas Final Man roamed within a malodorous murk, the Aussies' second full-length sharpens their attack with frightening efficiency. Nevertheless, the latent sensations from that rancid debut remain - rippling disgust, bottomless decay, slipstreaming vomit - only that, now, they're rendered in impossibly powerful tones. Rarely has a death-grinding record sounded this plausibly professional whilst retaining an authentically underground vibe.

Prepare to lose your head over CONTAMINATED's Celebratory Beheading!
