Sign of the Cross

False Prophet - The Second Death (Demo 1991)

Second demo tape by False Prophet. The only downside I see to this demo is that most tracks are way too long. This demo would've been much better with songs in the 3-4 minute range, but it's still a good listen for anyone into old school thrash/death metal.

01 - Diabolic Rites
02 - Second Death
03 - Holy Deception
04 - In Satan's Name
05 - Forgotten Souls
06 - Bring Back a Memory

Songe d'Enfer - My Visions in the Forest (Demo 1995)

Brazilian black metal that doesn't sound brazilian at all. Songe d'Enfer were much more influenced by european black metal of the early 90's, and it shows in this, their only demo. However, don't just dismiss them because they played in the style a hundred other bands did at the time, because these guys actually had some talent here. Too bad this short demo is the only thing they ever recorded.

01 - Et Vidit Quod Esset Bonum... (Sublime Blasphemy)
02 - My Lady Princess of Hell (Conjuration to Gorgon)
03 - My Visions in the Forest

My Visions in the Forest

Cross of Black Steel #1 (2005)

The cover image is pretty much self explanatory. You'll find interviews and reviews. No articles or other stuff like that. Still, it's a pretty interesting read given the choice of bands interviewed: Ildjarn, Clandestine Blaze, Desaster, Watain, Church Bizarre, among others. Format is PDF for easier read or even print out if you will. Enjoy.

Cross of Black Steel #1

Vulpecula - Phoenix of the Creation 7''EP (1995)

Vulpecula was a solo project of Ares Kingdom/ex-Order From Chaos guitarist Chuck Keller. Vulpecula's brand of black metal was focused on ambience, but not in an 'evil' or 'satanic' way, it had more like a deep space atmosphere and sounded rather unique. Phoenix of the Creation was originally released as a demo tape in 1995, but Eternal Darkness Creations also pressed it on wax in 1996. Upper picture corresponds to the 7 inch cover and the lower one to the demo tape.

01 - Phoenix of the Creation
02 - The First Point of Aries
03 - Seven Layers of Light

Samael - Live in Speyer, Germany (1991)

This is a very short set (perhaps it's incomplete?) by Samael playing in Germany in 1991. I have no info about the venue or the exact date. If anybody knows more about this gig please leave a comment.
The sound is pretty decent for a live bootleg from almost 20 years ago.

01 - Rite of Chtulhu
02 - Sleep of Death
03 - The Black Face

01 - Apparition of the Mist
02 - A Dark Cloud Arises
