Cult of Fire is an atmospheric metal band with Hindu and Buddhist themes that was formedin 2010. Although the band's focus was different in their early years, everything changed in 2013 with their album Ascetic Meditation Of Death, which according to the band was "the mostcomplex and deep work of art" they had ever created. The album was built around thegoddess Kali, Aghoris, and funeral rites in India and its immediate surroundings.Before each album, Vlad travels to India, where he places offerings on altars, worshipsgods in local temples, and meditates. He draws inspiration and energy from this and thenputs it into the music and stage presence of the band. The vast majority of everythingused on stage during Cult of Fire's live performances comes from India and Nepal. Cult ofFire is a musical tribute and worship of Hindu and Buddhist deities and their live shows arean exhibition of Tantric rituals, Aghoris, Kali, Shiva and other deities. For those who aredrawn to ancient rituals and the scent of the Orient and want to be transported thousandsof miles to the East, Cult of Fire will give you that experience.

A name is whispered which chills the spine and quickens the pulse – THE GREAT OLD ONES. Like phantoms emerging from the fog, they have haunted the world of Lovecraftian Black Metal with their sonorous, foreboding melodies and eldritch tales. Descending once more into the abyss of H.P. Lovecraft’s enigmatic universe, they have unearthed their latest opus, “Kadath”–an album that promises to be a journey of both magnificent dreams and unspeakable horrors.THE GREAT OLD ONES emerged in 2009 from the old parts of the ancient Aquitanian harbour city of Bordeaux, FRANCE, a city famed for its secrets and deep red wine. After releasing their first album, ‘Al Azif,’ the reactions of critics and fans were unanimously positive.

Their new album, “Kadath”,marks a bold departure from the oceanic depths of the Cthulhu mythos, venturing instead into the Dreamlands. It is here that we follow the protagonist, Randolph Carter, as he seeks the fabled city that haunts his visions. The album resonates with his longing and determination, embodying the treacherous path he treads amidst the capricious gods and monstrous entities that dwell within this twilight realm. Through seven tracks, THE GREAT OLD ONES tortuously narrate Carter’s odyssey, transcending the boundaries of music to evoke a world where fantasy intertwines with terror.
