Darker Than Black (Hendrik Möbus' Label; know from infamous Black Metal band Absurd) has BMSS releases. Th3se are considered to be bootlegs.
Hendrik claims that the records are just dead stock he found.

1.) The Panzerwitch vinyl EP was released via At War With False Noise, not via DTB. The original one runs with 45 RPM, the DTB version with 33 1/3 RPM.

2.) The Symbols of Great Power vinyl EP was originally released via DTB but the original EP comes with an extra insert. The insert is missing now.

3.) Kaleidescope Dreams album was released via DTB back in 2018. The first official run was hand numbered. DTB did a vinyl repress in 2018 witch was already considered by the band itself to be a bootleg.

Also the colours of the new prints are slightly different and the covers are more shiny.

DTB also has to offer records of the band EDELWEISS. The band itself considers these represses as bootlegs as their deal with DTB has ended and all first presses have been sold out years ago.
 
Would love another BMSS album tomorrow, but I'm expecting more merch.

Hendrik runs a good label, but he definitely has a problem with bootlegging old releases. The last two Grausamkeit he reissued were done without permission. He eventually paid BSOD or Narbentage off and agreed to not touch his catalogue again.
 
The new Imperial Triumphant record released and it’s great. They are mostly known for making this weird fusion of black metal and jazz. For example, on the track Merkurius Gilded a chad soprano saxophone (see Coltrane’s Favourite Things) blasts into the soundscape, halfway through the song, and cucks the distorted guitars. Really good shit:


I have a suspicion that the band may be pozzed but it doesn't reflect in the music so I don't care tbh.
 
Wasn't that the band where the guitarist praised Deathspell Omega for being a huge influence on him and he got lambasted by weak faggots on social media for liking a "Nazi" band, so he bent over backwards in apology?

Not my kinda thing regardless.

Got this uber hype BM LP recently. This type of stuff is usually overhyped, riffless junk for Reddit and IG goofs, but these guys have the goods.
 
Olav Berland from FORGOTTEN WOODS/JOYLESS is dead.

For those who don't know these Black Metal classics:



And without Joyless there would have never been bands like Lifelover.

I see a lot of sites reporting him being 59 years old, but the obituary I found had him as 46. Even fucking MetalArchives got that right.
Apparently he'd been ill for a while. Sad.
