Ohen - Whispering Lies

Blackened Dark Metal from Trnava, Slovakia

OHEN is a band from Slovakia founded in 2013. Their debut album Mortal man is a fusion of dark melodic and black symphonic metal. Lyrically they are touching the themes of battle between man and god, good and evil. The founding members are Matúš Novanský, Matej Sloboda and Tomáš Köppl. Whispering Lies is a second album by band Ohen. Delve into your own depths of self-deceit, false ambitions, and cleanse yourself of the golden idols you hold dear. All dogmas, all fears... Take your god, your-self, all your beliefs and set them aflame. Burn them, burn them all and from the ashes rise anew to face another nightmare...

Ardente - Aux portes de l'horizon

Raw/Medieval Black Metal from Rennes, France

Ardente is a one-woman band founded in 2020 that plays traditional underground black metal. Raw black metal with a decadent soul, sparse sounds and sometimes no vocals, some blackgaze influences, but with a certain narrative character that compensates for the lack of screams. No originality, no surprises, just old-school passion. The prospects are promising for fans of the 90s.
