A Tale of Two Triangles
Recently, Trismegistus Hex have been made aware of “Par Antra II: TAA”, the latest release by long-established Finnish Ritual Ambient project Halo Manash. We were understandably concerned by the similarity of the artwork of this release to our 2022 EP “Invocations under a Dark Star” – and to a lesser extent the layout of our…

Chthonic Odio Tour: Violentor
VIOLENTOR were born in 2004 from the mind of Alessio Medici, and his will to play raw and fast Thrash Metal influenced by the Metal Gods of the past. A “No Rest for Metal” band in its purest form, Violentor are always on the road, forever underground, and non-stop touring their 2022 album ‘Manifesto di…

Doom Shall Rise!
HeathenStorm Productions are on the road this weekend with cult Chilean doomsters King Heavy, taking in both UK dates of their brief jaunt to Europe alongside Yorkshire’s own Iron Void. Although I’m not doing much at Friday’s Wakefield show other than looking pretty and maybe hawking a shirt or two; duty demands I drive them…

Chthonic Odio Tour: NervoChaos
Outside countries tend to look at South-American countries as “exotic”. But we can assure you there’s nothing exotic about having 95% of the population struggling for basic needs, high crime rates and government after government doing nothing to change the situation – in fact, following their own agenda to keep the ball rolling. This is…

A Shortcut to Gnosis
Fresh from the positive reception of published debut “The Womb of the Wyrm“, Equinox kindly requested a second story. This one for their follow-up Esoteric Horror anthology “Tras el Velo” (Under the Veil) I naturally leapt at the opportunity to work with the publishers again. Once more, I would submit my prose in English, and…

The Womb of the Wyrm
Back in 2015, I was approached by Spanish eBook publishers Equinox to contribute a short story to their Esoteric Horror anthology “Junto a la Hoguera” (By the Bonfire) Having churned out reasonable prose through earlier endeavours, the challenge was eagerly accepted. The editors would translate my scribblings into their native tongue, so I could relax…

Burning Chaos
Another lyric video collaboration with German Label Witches Brew. Heralding the physical release of “Maleficus Sabbatum”, the sophomore album from renowned US Black Metal project A.I.D.S. Aiming for a more abstract, psychedelic vibe than the genre would expect or imply. This video takes a trip through occult symbolism and Lycanthropic Magick to deliver the bestial…

Domination
A lyric video collaboration with German label Witches Brew and Swedish Thrashers Morphetik. “Domination” demanded a direct statement, juxtaposing military archive footage from the past century alongside artwork from upcoming album “Proclamation of War”. Exploring through dissonant imagery how the voting process can empower harsh realpolitik. It was a pleasure to work with both band…

Behind the Merch table
I recently had the privilege of working the merch table for melancholic doom siren Jayn Maiven’s DARKHER, as she played a packed out local show at The Trades Club in Hebden Bridge. One of my favourite musicians, as well as a good friend; it’s always a delight to be part of the crew – whether…

A New Year’s Missive
In this interim week of crapulent self-indulgence, there’s nothing more fitting (unlike one’s trousers) than looking back over the past twelve months. A year which has seen triumph and tragedy alike. Coming into the first free year since lockdown, things were always going to be unsteady. Eager to reconnect with others and embrace new challenges,…

Bradford Invades Britain
Way back at the turn of the century, November 2000 to be precise; The Enchanted threw together a small UK tour alongside Bradford bands Bloodstream and Purity Cries. Our first extended endeavour, we found great success in overcoming the challenges of getting to and from venues and making sure folk turned up. With an aesthetic…
