For anyone in NYC or traveling there, I just dropped off some tapes and LPs at Generation Records and they're going up in the shop shortly!

We follow up a Hellstain Productions release with another, and we are proud to bring you the tape version of Kirkebrann's new album "Mot Trellenes Forfall..."!
Kirkebrann is no stranger to our little label, having been on two previous split releases, but this is the first time this black metal juggernaut is alone on a tape, and it's a glorious one. This album is packed with twisted and sacrilegious music from start to finish. These underground masters of the genre have conjured up an album that just needs to be in every real fan of true black metal's collection.
We are making 50 copies, which should be available near the middle of July! More details will follow!

It's been a poorly hidden secret that one of our members is also runnning the YouTube channel Bleeding Ears Promotion, and as a result of this, we are proud to present an exciting concert in Oslo the 16th of August this year.

Available now! Gutalax' S**t Beast on tape has arrived at HQ and is officially released today!
Past us said:
"This absolutely insane band has been making a bigger and bigger name for themselves out there with catchy, filthy, groovy and downright brutal goregrind. Downtuned and delirious tupa tupa accompanies a squealing and grunting vocal style unique to the band that comes together to create something that we want to play over and over while jumping around the living room."
Head on over to Blodbuse to grab a copy before they are all gone!

They're ready! The Genesis of Mephistopheles is ready and will be made available for sale via Blodbuse Distribution shortly!
Utuk-Xul hails from the fiery inferno that is Cali in Colombia and plays angry, satanic black metal. This auditory assault contains their debut album "The Goat of the Black Possession" from 2003, as well as all demo recordings from before this, including material from before 1997 when the band was named "Dies Irae".
Only 20 tapes have been made and they have been crafted by Mr. Blodbuse himself from unopened blank tapes from our own stockpile. This tape is also the first in a series of DIY tapes that will showcase the Colombian underground scene, which we have named "Colombian Metal Vault"

The calender says we have only 4 days left to go until INFERNO METAL FESTIVAL NORWAY kicks off for 2024, and what a festival it's going to be! If you are going, you can catch no less than 7 bands from our catalogue!
See where they're playing in the pictures, and read a bit about them below!
Deception - NO:
Melodic Death Metal from the western coast of Norway that blends the mellow and the aggressive perfectly to create a sound that is new and familiar to any fan of the genre.
Forcefed Horsehead:
Why play one genre when you can play a ton? FFHH blends death metal, grind, punk and other influences together to create a very unique sound, which laid the foundation of the incredible Monoceros from earlier this year.
Horrifier:
Death metal newcomers, but definitely not rookies. Their debut album was released in December, and it was pure death metal magnificence!
Inchoation:
With the release of their debut EP "From Nothingness, to the Antecedent Sphere" at Oslo Deathfest, Inchoation stands ready to decimate the Kniven stage during Inferno with their sci-fi death metal, in a show that just needs to be seen and heard!
Tilintetgjort:
We probably said it best for the 2023 festival: "Avantgarde, wicked, maniacal, composed, controlled and creative. All words that can describe this new, unique black metal act that's crawled out from the darkest crevices of the Oslo underground scene."
Visegard:
An emerging giant, this black metal act has started to climb the ranks in the underground and is heading towards the peak. Excellent and forceful black metal with a live show to match.
Zustand Null:
These black metallers took a giant leap forward into the stratosphere with their debut album from earlier this year and have established themselves well in the underground. Their mix of black and death metal lends itself well to fans of either genre, making this a show you can't miss!
We are happy to announce the first tape in our new DIY-series "Colombian Metal Vault", and it is Utuk-Xul with a compilation of their earliest work we have given the name "The Genesis of Mephistopheles".
This compilation contains their debut album and all music recorded prior to this album, including the time when the band was called "Dies Irae".
We are only having 20 made and no pre-order will be available. Keep your eyes peeled here for more info!
We are happy to announce our new project, which is a series of DIY-tapes focused on the Colombian underground. The name of the project is "Colombian Metal Vault", and we will announce the first tape in this series shortly.
Some may recall a YouTube project with the same name, but as that project evolved, we wanted to take the logo and the name and reuse it for a similar purpose: To promote Colombian metal. With the help of Blodbuse Distribution, we will make DIY-tapes similar to their Blodbuse Teip Trøkk-series with similar limitation
We will announce the first tape in this series a bit later today, so stay tuned.
Available now! Ulvhedner - Fjosmetall is finally here and available!
Past us said:
"Their rural, agrarian brand of black metal burst through the underground like a brand new plow with 2020's Legd, and they are now back with the follow-up where their tools have been sharpened and they bring us more of the same incredible music. Do not miss out on this if you are a fan of bands such as Windir and early Ulver."
Copies available via Hellstain Productions and shortly from Blodbuse Distribution as well!

We are three months and a day away from this incredible night of underground black metal! Don't miss out!
Mark the date in your calendar! The 25th of May, we make our return to Revolver with another trio of bands from the label's history!
Zustand Null:
This four-piece from Oslo blur the line between black and death metal with their dissonant and haunting soundscapes. They followed up their 2017 EP "At the Limit of Sanity" with their debut album "Beyond the Limit of Sanity" last year, and now they grace the stage at Revolver, following multiple outstanding concerts. They will also be performing at this year's Inferno festival, so this is a golden opportunity for those not attending the festival to catch this madness live.
SWORN:
Melodic and cold black metal from Bergen that can easily be named as one the torch bearers from the underground. Having followed up "Dark Stars and Eternity" with the mighty "A Journey told through Fire" from last year, they take the stage to show you exactly why they deserve all the plaudits they have been getting. Do not miss out this rare opportunity to see Sworn on a stage, you'll regret it if you do!
Andakt:
Come feast your eyes on the debut concert of this one man black metal band from Enebakk. We have been able to coerce Savarak into digging up a live band to perform his blasphemic art in front of a live audience for the first time, and it already promises to be one for the history books.

Past us said:
"For those unfamiliar with ENE, it is outstanding black metal from Norway, and it brings you music that should sound both familiar and foreign at the same time. ENE conjures soundscapes that translocate you to a different plane, and we wouldn't have it any other way.
50 copies have been made, so grab one while you can!

Available now! Tryglav - Night of Whispering Souls has finally arrived and copies should be making their way onto Blodbuse and Hellstain shortly!
Past us said:
"Melodic and powerful black metal that not only pays homage to the greats of the genre, but also ventures off on its own and mixes things up to make it a work of its own. A strong debut effort that should definitely be in the collections of fans of bands like Dissection and Dark Funeral."
50 copies are available, so keep your eyes peel and don't sleep on this!
Available now! Horrifier's Horrid Resurrection is out and ready to be grabbed!
Past us said:
"This new, exciting band that recently emerged has taken the Norwegian underground by storm with their old school sounding death metal. Expect hard-hitting, face-smashing and spine-busting music that will leave even the most jaded metalhead craving more!"

11th of December 2018 was the date we officially released Internal Suffering - Awakening of the Rebel, and was the start of Screaming Skull Records as a label.
Now, 5 years later, I'm sitting here, writing this message and wondering where the hell time has gone by.
Through all these years, we've worked with some incredible bands, from well known names in the industry to the obscure underground bands that came from close to nowhere. We are immensely grateful for the confidence and trust put into us as a label to handle and release your music.
There is no hiding that this past year has been difficult for many, us included, but I started this label as a means to put amazing music on tape, not to get rich, and we are continuing this going forward. The amount of releases this year went down compared to previous years, but rest assured, we will continue to release what we want, when we can and we will keep going for as long as it's fun, and trust us, we think it's a lot of fun.
Thank you to all our supporters, from the guy that bought a tape once to the megafan that owns almost everything we've released. We would never be able to do what we do without the support we get from people around the globe.
Thank you for 5 amazing years, and we hope you stick around for the next 5!
We will be present at Kniven this Sunday! We'll bring along tapes and even some LPs, so come on down to get your grandma a nice death metal tape for Christmas!
Available now! Inchoation's "From Nothingness, to the Antecedent Sphere" is not only put on digital platforms, but also on tape today!
One of the most anticipated debuts from this young trio, serving up death metal inspired by the likes of Blood Incantation and Timeghoul.
Go grab a copy at tonight's gig at Oslo Deathfest and why not grab some more merch from the two fine gentlemen you see in picture two?
If you can't make it tonight, fret not, copies will be available through the band afterwards, as well as Blodbuse Distribution!
