Various - DONBASS [Album]

Compilation of various electronic genres, primarily Experimental, Rhythmic Noise, and Dark Ambient.

Сompilation DONBASS is the fruit of creativity grown by the authors from various countries, the musical dedication to that point on the world map where one can now most clearly hear the deadly march of history. 

The musicians participating in this collaborative effort, each in his own way, try to take a look in the face of war with unmost honesty and see in its blind eyes the reflection of their own main fear

Arathgoth - Rise of the Three Moons [Album]

Calling this Ambient Black Metal may be a bit of a misnomer as some tracks have lyrics. Also, many of the synthlines are simplistic, even childish. However, it is still enjoyable with its typical black metal cartoon imagery.

They will take no prisoners! One must fight the fire by the fire! Straight from hell, the knights wizard of the old religion are going to wake up "Solaris", the thinking ocean! 

In this chaos, all will fall into darkness! But shadows cant be without light... These voices, these dreams will show me... The rise of the Three Moons!
