First four Art Of Silence releases out now!

BMM ART 01 Voida – Voida

A new project of the talented artist known as Prog-Jester (Funeral Of The Sun (funeral doom), Krobak (post rock), Stoned Jesus (stoner metal)) presents dark ambient style being a new experience for the musician. Three tracks of the debut album will lead you from traditional ambient through post-rock motives peculiar to the musician to drone ambient in the vein of recent Lustmord experiments.

BMM ART 02 Odio Vestri – Darkness Of Sorrow

A debut album of a young Russian band combining funeral doom with ambient in their music and thus approaching some Stijn van Cauter works. Raw and melancholic funeral doom by Odio Vestri is a potential new step towards depression for an unskilled listener.

BMM ART 03 Asklepia – Cold Of Solitude

A full-length album from a Russian band fitting the frames of depressive black metal in their creativity. Cold and raw album sound with Russian lyrics pierced by yearning of loneliness will surely attract fans of the genre.

BMM ART 04 Dispersive Light – Dispersive Light

Ukranian band presents crushing material based on combination of drone and dark ambient enriched by severe black metal atmosphere. Two endless morbid tracks from Dispersive Light turn to two enormous black waves taking the listener to the depths of the void…forever…

All Cds are limited to 100 copies. In this series we present the records which can hardly attract wide attention by some reasons (like experimental character of music or record quality), however, are worth listening to our mind. We have developed a special thick cardboard sleeve being a small LP sleeve replica for these series; special packages are made in Japan. Each release includes a sticker, a small booklet and a card with copy number.
