IV Levitation (Kärki)

VIII Nightmare (Kärki)
IX A Second Chance
Including The Wagoner, My Soul Is Never Free, and Strict Master (Millsted)
The Black Powder is the fourth album from Lord Vicar. It was, like the previous album Gates of Flesh, recorded by audio wizard Joona Lukala at Noise for Fiction studio in Turku, Finland. All studio work took place in February and March of 2019. The studio has the benefit of a huge live room which gave the band the opportunity to capture a sound that breathes with the ambience of the space, but maintains the sonic weight for which they are rightly known.

This album is a return to longer form, and even more progressive song structures, but the punchier material is also provided with merciless precision, as well as soothing acoustic moments. The songwriting duties are shared by Kimi and Gareth, also Chritus providing lyrical output.
The album contains a loose lyrical concept relating to mankind’s endless lack of reason and weakness of stability, resulting to violence, war, manipulation of children, and numbing our minds in order to shut out the horror that is the reality we live in. We blow the black lines to feel good. This takes place generation after generation, in an endless cycle of standing and falling. Musically and lyrically the album covers a wide spectrum of textures from the all out punky attack of ’The Temple in the Bedrock’, fragile beauty of ‘Nightmare’, to the oppressive menace of the more intense moments of ‘Sulphur, Charcoal and Saltpetre’. This album is a grower, meant to be listened repeatedly, full of subtle details that reveal themselves with each subsequent listen.

’But children of that place remain with us
They illustrate the burden of our lies
And make us feel the hell of all those memories
Buried in the grave of the fireflies’

Crestfallen Queen joins Church Within Records !
NewsThe Queen joins the Church !!
Church Within Records is proud that Crestfallen Queen is now part of our congregation.

Bandinfo:
Crestfallen Queen hail from Stuttgart Germany but could have very well been born anywhere in the dark hazy fog of the seventies. The quintet was formed in 2016 playing their brand of Progressive Blackened Rock. The Doom laden riffs are backed by galloping metallic rhythms and hounded by eerie synths which are then topped off by a majestic voice that lurks somewhere between this world and the next.
Following the release of their completely analogue recorded, produced and quickly sold-out demo cassette „No More Let Life Divide What Death Can Join Together“ (released February 2018) the debut album „Queen of Swords“ pre­sents the detail-loving and unconventional soul of Crestfallen Queen in full length.
„Queen of Swords“ is full of passion and devotion, which is impressively un­derlined by the hand-drawn cover artwork of the Peruvian artist Jose Gabriel Alegría Sabogal. Inspired by ancient philosophy and mythology, the epic work tells the long forgotten stories of fallen heroines and their struggle with loss, fears, drugs, human abysses, self-empowerment, love, life and death. With „Queen of Swords“ History mutates into „Herstory“ and reveals fright­ening parallels to the realities of life of our time.
Crestfallen Queen are not to be taken light heartedly. The unconventional length of the songs speak for themselves where the music is challenging and stirring, a lot like life itself. Anyone who has seen the band live can feel the frankness of this statement. The bittersweet membrane between pain and ecstasy. Goosebumps running down your back at the sound of the hellish scre­ams alternating with a siren-like tenderness. Fury. Beauty. Death. Life. The rediscovery of everyday repressed emotions. Good. Evil. Alpha and Omega. Everything is one. One is everything. Solve et Coagula. Defeat and triumph. Rise and fall. The dialectical relationship of man being thrown into the best of all worlds.
We fall and we get up again. This is Crestfallen Queen - the Queen of Swords.
A catalyst. A poetess. The one who unmasks. Inviting us to the knowledge of our limited time on this earth and to meet one and others with sincerity.

Crestfallen Queen - “Queen of Swords”

Info:
In July 3th 1982 history was in the making when The Obsessed played LIVE at the Wax museum.
The Curtain went up and smoke rose from the stage as lightning bolts shot out from amps and thunder from the drums. As the audience was pinned to their to their electric chairs ( in the chamber of horror section of the museum), impending doom pounded int their brains. Everyone`s skulls were shattered that night as the immense amount of low end filled the halls of terror. Bottom end was everywhere as the audience shrieked with fear. Fright night was here to stay which lasted for about an hour and a half

CW048 : Cruthu - The Angle of Eternity
NewsCruthu -The Angle of Eternity on Church Within Records !!
Info:
Based in Lansing, Michigan, Cruthu is comprised of vocalist Ryan
Evans, guitarist Dan McCormick, bassist Erik Hemingsen (Scott Lehman
also plays on the album), and drummer Matt Fry. The Angle of Eternity
was produced by McCormick and George Szegedy at The Black Lodge in
Lansing, and features cover art by Dan McDonald Studios in a grim
style perfectly suited to the band`s downer and ethereal songcraft.

The album is traditional doom metal with heavy 70s movements and
passages well structured and deliberate, says McCormick in
assessing the aesthetic. We were going for a more lo-fi, circa-70s
sound. Our current goal is to progress the project into some
early-NWOBHM over time without compromising our traditional influence.

Songs like the lurching „Lady in the Lake“ and „Bog of Kildare“ will
earn understanding nods from fans of doomed greats like Trouble, Pagan
Altar and The Gates of Slumber, and the progressive edge brought to
„Seance“ and the closing title-track make a clear statement that
Cruthu offer a richness of approach to coincide with their memorable
riffing and thematic lyrics.
Recorded 100 percent to tape, The Angle of Eternity weaves a
natural-sounding tapestry of doom across its course, capturing a raw
vision of heavy metals roots as righteous in its execution as its
foundations. It is doom by doomers, for doomers, and readily lets the
rest be as damned as they are. -JJ Koczan, The Obelisk

CW046: Purple Hill Witch - Celestial Cemetery
NewsWith their sophomore album Celestial Cemetary out on Church Within Records [date], Norwegian Purple Hill Witch hits a sweet spot in the metal triangle between Angel Witch, Black Sabbath and Hawkwind. It’s that alchemistic moment where psych, doom, NWOBH, proto metal and rock is molded and sculpted into a perfect entity. Whereas their debut album had more of a stoner rock vibe to it, the new album takes the listener on a sheer proto doom journey past vast galaxies of swirling, Iommic riffs, blistering soli, driving drums and a steady surge of pulsating bass. What really strikes through on Celestial Cemetary is how much atmosphere and true feeling the band manages to cramp into the furrows of their sonic landscape – this album oozes with hallucinogenic visions of occult rituals and barren medieval country sides haunted by wicked witches. As such it leaves an even darker, more sinister imprint, and if there ever was an immaculate soundtrack for when going witch hunting across celestial cemeteries this would have to be it. Grab the magic wand and a copy of Purple Hill Witch’s new album before the next hunt, you will need it.

Tracklist:
1. Ghouls in Leather
2. Hardbinger of Death
3. Celestial Cemetery
4. Around the Universe
5. Menticide
6. The First Encounter
7. Burnt Offering

CW042: Beelzefuzz – Righous Bloom Coming !!!
NewsBeelzefuzz is a heavy rock band from North East MD formed in 2009. Releasing a 4 song demo in 2010 they established a loyal fan base in the DE, MD, PA area that eventually led to signing with Germany's very prestigious Church Within records in 2012. Beelzefuzz incorporates a very unique style of heavy music similar to the classic sounds of early 70's bands such as Uriah Heep, Deep Purple and Black sabbath as well as contemporary acts Pentagram, Graveyard and Earthride. Still Beelzefuzz remain decidely independent with their own personal brand of melodic heavy rock and the David Byron, John Lawton crossed with Mark Farner vocal stylings of singer and guitarist Dana Ortt shine through beautifully in songs such as "Lotus Jam", "All the Feeling Returns", "Reborn" and the haunting "Hypnotize". Joined by drummer Darin McCloskey (Pale Divine) in 2011, Beelzefuzz entered the studio again to record a new four song demo. Sparking quite a bit of label interest they secured the deal with The Church Within records and released their first self titled album via the label in 2013. The current and active lineup of Beelzefuzz is Dana Ortt (vocals/guitar), Darin McCloskey (drums), Greg Diener (lead guitar/vocals), Bert Hall (bass). A new album entitled "II The Righteous Bloom" is set to be released from The Church Within records at the 29th of September

CW042: Lord Vicar – Gates of Flesh 27th May !!!
NewsLord Vicar Biography

As the final nails were hammered to the coffin of Reverend Bizarre (1995-2007, R.I.P.), guitar player Peter Vicar -- nowadays going with his real name Kimi Kärki -- started to follow his vision of a new Doom Metal band. He felt forced to fulfil his need to compose and play this most arcane form of metal in the way it was meant to be, full of intensity, cruelty, heaviness, and force. Still firmly walking in the footsteps of Saint Vitus, Trouble, Witchfinder General, Pentagram and The Obsessed, Lord Vicar brings together an international lineup featuring Chritus Linderson (ex Saint Vitus, Count Raven, Terra Firma), Sami Hynninen (a.k.a. Albert Witchfinder ex Reverend Bizarre) and Gareth Millsted (ex Centurions Ghost).

About Gates of Flesh

Leper, you used to be so beautiful
You hope that you are dreaming now, but this is for real

The Gates of Flesh is the third album from Lord Vicar. It was recorded by audio wizard Joona Lukala at Noise for Fiction studio in Turku, Finland, in the Autumn of 2015. The studio had the benefit of a huge live room which gave the band the opportunity to capture a sound that breathes with the ambience of the space, but maintains the sonic weight for which they are rightly known.

The tracking of the album was undertaken by the core of the band – Kimi, Gareth and the legendary Lord Chritus, with bass duties being split between Kimi and Gareth. Sami is not featured on the album but has been taking care of bass for live shows.

Deliberately shorter than previous albums, the band sought to concentrate their trademark heaviness into shorter, punchier songs and fit the album onto a single vinyl LP. The result is an album that the band consider their most focused and intense release to date.

Whilst this is definitely not a concept album, there is a loose lyrical theme relating to the pleasures and weaknesses of the flesh. Musically and lyrically the album covers a wide spectrum of textures from the fragile beauty of ‘A Woman Out Of Snow’ to the oppressive menace of ‘Leper, Leper’, with subtle details that reveal themselves to the listener with each subsequent listen.

Mirror, it surely cannot lie to me
This must be what’s left to see
I can’t turn away…

2. The Green Man
3. A Shadow of Myself
4. Breaking the Circle
5. Accidents
6. A Woman out of Snow
7. Leper, Leper

News When they got their first concert, Simon Daniel Larsen had joined on guitar and Alucarda became a three piece band.

In the summer of 2014, their first full length, titled Raw howls, was recorded live duriRisen from the filthy streets of Copenhagen in late 2011, with the love for old fuzzy garage punk, doom metal and exploitation movies and other sleazy flicks. At the beginning it was more or less a one man project, started by Hampus Wahlgren. When their demo tape, D.F.F.L, was ready for recording in 2012, Marcus Ferreira had been sitting behind the drums for about three rehearsals.ng three days in a rehearsal room by Marcus.
”It was recorded fast and with a ”Yeah, pretty sure we played it right, let’s do the next track!” – kind of attitude, haha. The album got some parts that’s charmingly bad. A either you like it or you dont kind of deal I guess…
It’s sloppy, loud and filthy!”

Seamount - Nitro Jesus
NewsSeamount began in 2007 as an idea of guitarist Tim Schmidt in Wurzburg, Germany under the influence of his fondness for the melodic hard rock and heavy metal style of bands like the Obsessed, AC/DC, Black Sabbath and so many others. On his search for the proper vocalist American singer Phil Swanson introduced himself as a potential candidate for the position and without much more thought the two moved forward quickly writing their debut “NTODRM” an acronym for “New Torch of Doom Rock Music” a term coined between the two members from their very first conversation about Seamount and its musical direction.
The initial 2008 debut was released as an interactive free download before getting picked up for a double vinyl gatefold pressing by Merciless Records which was followed by Seamounts first European tour that culminated a successful opening of Hammer of Dooms inaugural festival.
Just more than a year later Seamount returned in 2009 with a slightly more experimental approach on “Light and Truth” which found them the new welcome home of Church Within Records that had a highlighted tour opening Doom Shall Rise.
Almost a year to the day Seamount returned in 2010 again with their third release of “Sacrifice” that received their greatest appreciation to date with numerous favored reviews and best of year accolades. Another record meant another quick European tour of support this time with labelmates Serpent Venom and at the time Orchid.
Seamount then went back to the writing and recording process taking two years time to release 2012’s bold concept record of love and spirituality “Earthmother”. The bands fourth and bravest effort was surprisingly well received despite its parsimonious indulgence.
After Earthmother Seamount took a break from live appearances and for the first time slowed its writing process until they gathered up their ideas for this new 2015 release of their fifth studio recording “Nitro Jesus” that brings back the straight ahead vibe of Sacrifice and NTODRM, prioritizing a more hook oriented style that puts Seamounts adroitness for rhythm and melody to a prominent forefront, proudly stating the idea of traditional songwriting above all else.

AEONSGATE is a  Doom project and it may become a cult.
News












The first record called “Pentalpha” is a one hour long song that tells a sad, romantic and very heavy -doomy story of someone's first minutes of death. It was recorded at Inception Studios in different parts of the world (L.A., Stockholm, Barcelona...) and produced, mixed and mastered by Billy Anderson at SharkBite Studios (Oakland, Ca). The release is set for October 24th, 2014 through Germany's THE CHURCH WITHIN RECORDS ( http://www.doom-dealer.de ).
AEONSGATE is the brainchild of Jondix (guitar player and founder of Great Coven, EIght Hands for Kali and Ätman-Acron). This time he is surrounded by amazing musicians. Mats Leven (Krux, Malmsteen, Therion, Candlemass,...) is the singer and his agonic and beautiful voice makes the song as sad and dark as you can get. Joseph Diaz is the mysterious bass player who played before with the likes of Graham Bonnet, Bobby Martin,...) And finally Marco Minneman (Kreator, Necrophagist, Steven Wilson,...) on drums playing in a trance inducing sabbathic progressive way strange in this musical genre. This doom opera song mixes 70's, neoclassical and oriental elements and will be remembered as 2014 Doom's ultimate epitome.

A lot of doom cliches and full of surprises, this record will change you forever...

CW037: Serpent Venom - „Of Things Seen And Unseen’ CD + special version
NewsInfo:
The 2014 release of the album 'Of Things Seen & Unseen' marks a new beginning for Serpent Venom.

Conceived in 2008, Serpent Venom, hailing from London and Hertfordshire, brought their brand of 70's tinged, traditional heavy doom to a wide audience across the UK, receiving high praise for debut album 'Carnal Altar' and their live shows. Upon the departure of Pete Fox, Serpent Venom enlisted guitarist Roland Scriver, (Sloth, End of Level Boss) and toured hard across the British Isles and Europe. With a ferocious live presence and thunderous volume, the band continued to cement their reputation as a live act playing with the likes of Trouble, Pentagram, Conan, Black Magician, Goatess and Bast, all whilst honing the riffs for the second album.

'Of Things Seen & Unseen' was recorded at Skyhammer Studio in October 2013 with Chris Fielding (Electric Wizard, Conan, Capricorns, Taint, Coltsblood, Bast) at the helm. It is the first recording to feature guitarist Roland Scriver and marks a song writing approach that came straight out of the jam room and involved the whole band.

Tracklist:
1. The Penance You Pay
2 .Sorrow's Bastard
3. Death Throes At Dawn
4. The Lords Of Life
5. I Awake
6. Let Them Starve
7.Pilgrims Of The Sun
8. Burning Free

Release Date: 27th of June


CW038: Purple Hill Witch – Same CD Release Date 27th of June
NewsInfo:
Purple Hill Witch was summoned out of the Norwegian countryside for about three years ago. The young trio (whofs members are also to be found in Spectral Haze, Condor and Flight) are under heavy influence of bands such as Pentagram, Witchfinder General and Black Sabbath, complimented by the filthiness of old heavy- and thrash- metal bands from the 70Œs and 80Œs.

After spending their first couple of years playing alongside many great bands in Oslofs shady basements, they crossed the Norwegian border for the first time this November, as they hit the European roads together with the doom legends of Lord Vicar. The 7-vinyl entitled gAlchemyh is their only official release so far, but the band has recently been in the studio finishing up their first full length album, which is expected to finally surface in the early parts of 2014.

Tracklist:
01 Queen of the Hill
02 Astral Booze
03 Final Procession
04 Karmanjaka
05 The Landing
06 Aldebaranian Voyage (Into the Sun)
07 Purple Hill Witch

Release date: 27th of June


Blackfinger - Same CD + LP Pre.Order ! 31.01.2014
NewsThe fantastic Blackfinger album is now ready for pre-order !
Info:
Following his departure as longtime vocalist for Chicago doom legends TROUBLE in 2008, Eric Wagner promptly removed himself from the spotlight and began intently writing new material of a more personal nature. Those writing sessions would yield the musical inspiration for BLACKFINGER. Described adamantly as a “band” and not a “project”, BLACKFINGER began to take shape as a unit in 2009, with Wagner recruiting hometown friends Rico Bianchi and Doug Hakes on guitars, Ben Smith on bass, and Larry Piatz on drums. Over the course of the next four years, the group would meticulously craft and commit eleven tracks to tape. These tracks, with their many peaks and valleys of heaviness and melancholy, along with Wagner's signature vocals, would ultimately become the self titled debut album. “Blackfinger” will mark the singer’s first recorded output since TROUBLE's 2007 release "Simple Mind Condition".

In August of 2013, fans of Eric and BLACKFINGER were put on notice that it would not be much longer before the debut record would be unleashed. BLACKFINGER signed a worldwide deal with Germany’s prestigious The Church Within Records, home to several of the most revered bands in the genre. While Dark Star Records will continue to handle all digital versions, the full length CD and limited edition vinyl promise to be out on The Church Within Records

Dienstag, 02.07.2013 / 20:30 Uhr - 23:30 Uhr


Eagle Twin (USA)

Salt Lake City-based heavy rock duo Eagle Twins’ sophomore LP is finally upon us! Once again, they have created a true masterpiece that will devastate forward-thinking riff-seekers everywhere!

Eagle Twin merges the talents of guitarist Gentry Densley (of legendary post-hardcore/jazz icons, Iceburn) with the thunderous percussion of Tyler Smith (formerly of Form of Rocket). Eagle Twins’ incredibly potent and unique multi-faceted approach became apparent to the world when their debut album, The Unkindness of Crows, stormed doom and experimental music fans later that year.

Beelzefuzz is now part of the Church !!!
NewsWhat an amazing band !! Church Within Records is really proud to work with this unique band. Their debut album is coming soon !

"amazing brand of 70's influenced Rock/Progressive DOOM getting a wide exposition in 2013 with their now very awaited debut album...
It's pretty rare, until now, to hear influences from Uriah Heep, Queen, Genesis or even Deep Purple in DOOMY sounds, BEELZEFUZZ does incorporate them with a pretty unique energy, very different from all that retro-bluesy wave, this is very melodic but always amazingly fuzzy and never in rest of heaviness , listen for example "Hypnotize" as a very representative song of their style which generates exceptionally positive vibes."

Purple Hill Witch - Alchemy Pic 7"
NewsChurch Within Records is happy to present you some fresh blood from Norway.
A high quality pic 7" will come in December. Ready to bring you an unholy Christmas.

Purple Hill is the latest Scandinavian band to embrace the gloomier side of metal.

The Oslo trio’s easy accessible brand of doom is consumed by plodding, monolithic riffs and the gloomy ballistics of Sabbath (and to a lesser extent the sprit of early Saint Vitus).


CW031: Seamount - Earthmother CD out at the 10th of November !
NewsFourth Seamount album. Earthmother will see the lights of day at the 10th of November !

•This is the first concept record of sorts by Seamount. It was inspired by a friend and the change she made in me and how I look at life. Also by some revelations I had in a very deep and dark conversation with another friend when he helped me realize perhaps I have been hiding behind the negative because I had never witnessed the positive.

Theres a simple tool to use when listening to this record. On the surface it plays like a spiritually themed storyline but if you replace the idea of faith and religion with and god with the one you love then you can read between the lines. It is dedicated to the greatest love something Ive always wondered about and admired.

I have a better understanding of what it is now and how we ourselves own our love and make it as strong as we choose. Its how much we are willing to give and offer not how much we receive. That`s why it can be blind at times. We create love the same as we create God, its our faith in it that makes it what it is.

- Phil Swanson


CW032: Lord of the Grave - Green Vapour
NewsFinally ! The new and second lord the the Grave record will be out at the 10th of November.

Info:
Lord of Grave`s second album Green Vapour is a blast from the underground, it comes from the caves of the grave. It peers more into the sludgy rock n roll side of heavy stoner doom with a more nihilistic,fuck it aspect to it. Yet it is sexy and has the mandatory feel of Black Sabbath, the feeling of groovy 70s fuzzrock. It will make you nod, it will make you bang in a sluggish kinda way. Here`s an assembly of horror, self-destruction and perversions.

"Return to Earth' of Sigiriya on Church Within Records !!
NewsI am proud to announce that the debut album 'Return to Earth' of Sigirya will be out on The Church Within Records.
The artwork is nearly ready and Jimbob ( Taint) did a fantastic job.

So Acrimony is still on my „Top-5-missing-bands“ ,but now we have Sigiriya !!!
Expect some welsh heavyness. Fuck Yeah !! I mean FUCK YEAH !!!! Seriously !

Bio:
„Beneath the soil of a Welsh valley a heavy metal life-force regains strength: rising from the ashes of stoner doom merchants Acrimony, Sigiriya is born. Eight years after the demise of Acrimony, guitarist Stu O’Hara, bassist Mead, drummer Darren Ivey and vocalist Dorian Walters have reconvened. Not wanting the limitations of reforming a project long dead to them, Sigiriya brings a fresh take on their trademark monolithic heavy groove. While Acrimony hailed from the temples of deepest space, Sigiriya come from the earthy depths, bringing hefty, tremor-inducing sonics that pay homage to the riff. „

NewsOUT NOW !!!!!!!!!

“The River have now recorded a 10" for The Church Within Records (Germany).

Unorthodox – new album
News“Awaken”
After 1,5 year in the studio the new album “Awaken” is ready.
Expect one of the best Maryland Doom Album since ages !!! ( Sherman / Earthride)

“Unorthodox were one of the many Maryland based doom metal bands in the early 90's. They were originally formed around 1990 under the name Asylum but since there was another band with that name they changed to Unorthodox for the release of their debut album in 1993. Soon after the release of their second album in 1995 their label Hellhound Records closed its doors and the band was dormant for some time. In early 2000 the band was revived once again and have been playing live in the Washington DC area. In early 2004 the band reunited once .


Force:
NewsIt is a huge honor for me to to announce that The Church Within Record will put out all Force material !!!
At the moment Alfred Morris is doing the fransfer of the old recordings to a new format


“Force forms in suburban Maryland with, according to an early press sheet, “the sole purpose of being a Black Sabbath tribute band.” The group’s various lineups break metal gender and racial barriers by including both female and African-American members. Band motto: “Blacker Than Black Sabbath.”
