W.A.I.L. - W.A.I.L. CD € 10
Conceptualized around the letters of the acronymic band moniker, W.A.I.L. (Wisdom through Agony into Illumination and Lunacy), the debut album of this Finnish band delves through a five piece journey of murky and crushing soundscapes. On this first part of self-titled full-lengths, W.A.I.L. explains its meaning from a wholly personal perspective. The exceptional name accompanies exceptional music and therefore W.A.I.L. gives a mouth to something that absorbs conventions of black, death, doom & heavy metal - but the entity speaks with only one unique voice and that voice does speak indeed, because the wine of Satan has got them drunk. The cd version has an improved mastering & layout.

WHIPLASH - Insult To Injury + Live New York 1986 CD € 10
The third album from Whiplash saw them adding new vocalist Glenn Hansen, moving them into slightly more melodic and traditional metal realms. It's not quite the Whiplash of the first two albums, but stands strongly on its own as a strong, memorable and very heavy metal album. Originally released in 1989, this Displeased reissue adds a 6-song live set from 1986, played in their original trio formation in front of a thrash-hungry CBGBs crowd.

WHIRLING - Faceless Phenomena CD € 10
Avantgarde Dark Metal from sweden, featuring members of ARMAGEDDA (rip) and BERGRAVEN ! This unconventional brainchild out of sweden still borrows from the Black Metal range its members bring with it, however it surprises with crafty obscure and complex music, rich with songs and instrumentation. An unconventional and disturbing travel - easily drifting away from the usual metal genres. "Faceless Phenomena" means nothing that we can foresee, densly layered music, moving skillfully between fragility and powerful outbursts, graceful melodic and twisted imaginery. Impeccable individual riffs nail deep the mood, let you grow and also fall with the alluring songs. Try to imagine a mix of VEB BUENS ENDE, CODE and BERGRAVEN, its time to make the decisive twist!
Digipack CD with Booklet, layout by Kim Sølve of www.trineogkim.no (Mayhem, Darkthrone, Aeternus, DHG, Ved Buens Ende, Virus, Gallhammer, Enslaved…)

WOEBEGONE OBSCURED – Deathstination Slipcase CD € 10
Formed in 2006, Denmark’s Woebegone Obscured found inspiration suddenly, when vocalist and drummer D Woe was commended to a mental asylum. Loathing in depression and suicide thoughts, the lyrical seed was planted solid. Music-wise, it was considered a much slower approach than that of other current and past projects of its members, and it perfectly suited what Woebegone Obscured was looking for: ugly, yet interesting metal without being held back from the norms. Blackened funeral doom/death with no keyboards, no female chanting, no hyper-speed blasting…Listening to Deathstination is like being in suspended animation, floating in obscure and unknown humid limbos of the mind, with paralyzed senses.

WOLVES IN THE THRONE ROOM - Diadem Of Twelve Stars CD € 10
Amazingly well-written and atmospheric Black Metal suffused with the feel of deep forests and dark winters. Every song on this disc is like a journey carried across a frozen landscape by rolling, epic riffs that turn from mournful to triumphant in a way that is stirring and emotionally satisfying. This is what Black Metal is all about, this is the kind of powerful, moving music the genre can create when it frees itself from the expectation of convention and reaches for something greater.
