Occultation + Reveal CDs out now!!!
Out now!!
Occultation – Three & Seven CD
Featuring EMM (aka Nameless Void) of Negative Plane (vocalist/drummer V, and bassist/backing vocalist MAL complete the OCCULTATION triumvirate), “Three & Seven” is a psychedelic vortex of audial terror. A true sonic nightmare where references from ancient horror soundtrack, ‘70s prog, classic ‘80s dark rock, classic cult metal (Mercyful Fate, Death SS), and post punk (Mighty Sphincter) bleed together to create one of the most surreal, intriguing, and intimidating releases of the year. While also at the same time, serving as the fist in the face to the female-fronted occult-doom/rock movement. Sample here!
Reveal – Nocturne of Eyes & Teeth CD
Hailing from Uppsala, Sweden, Reveal have manifested a recording that is evocative, eerie and in their own words “The Nocturne will certainly have an impact on the ones that wants to, and are unbound enough; our take on the same 400 year old rock-current that influenced and changed so many.
It is what it is and nothing besides, but there might shine through a bit of The Cramps, Mayhem, Black Hole, Katharsis, Master’s Hammer and a good amount of The Doors”. Sample here!

Reveal ‘Nocturne of Eyes & Teeth’ CD and Occultation ‘Three & Seven’ CD releases.
The next two forthcoming releases on Invictus Productions!
The first, Reveal, is set for release on Saturday March 31 2012. The album, ‘Nocturne of Eyes and Teeth’, has previously been issued on vinyl only through Germany’s High Roller Records and after a lengthy negotiation with the band, Invictus secured the rights to the CD release worldwide. The band’s style is an eclectic mix of the likes of Master’s Hammer, early Samael with a nod to classic heavy metal and even the eerie Twin Peaks soundtrack. For such a new band, their style is quite distinct and recognisable among the myriad of new ‘old school’ metal bands currently plying their trade. Reveal also opened for fellow Uppsala band In Solitude in Stockholm on Saturday February 25 to much acclaim and they have also played the prestigious Hell’s Pleasure festival in Germany in July 2011. The band will hopefully be doing shows in Europe with Negative Plane later in 2012.
The second upcoming release on Invictus is the Occultation album ‘Three and Seven’, which is due for release on April 17. The band is the brainchild of E.M.M., otherwise known as Nameless Void, from New York’s Negative Plane and features the haunting, eerie and melancholic vocals of V.B. and A.L. V.B. also performed female vocals on Negative Plane’s sophomore album ‘Stained Glass Revelations’, released through Invictus in 2011. The style of the band stems from metal and more alternative music with influences aplenty from Joy Division, The Cure, Christian Death and Diamanda Galas as well as subtle nods to Mercyful Fate. The overall feel of the album could be likened to the atmosphere conjured throughout Herzog’s classic ‘Nosferatu: The Vampyre’ from 1979. The band has played a number of low key shows in the US and played their first overseas show in Dublin in August 2011 in support of Negative Plane and Tribulation. There are aims for the band to tour both Europe and the US in 2012 and into 2013 in support of the album. The track ‘Living Portrait’ can be heard here on the Invictus website!

Gatefold LP with new artwork, printed insert and A2 poster. Sonic terror in extremis! Not for the faint hearted…Diocletian is relentless, pummelling, vicious and merciless death metal. Total war, total death!
The second press of the ZOM demo cassette will be available from Friday January 27th c.e. A new assault from Irish shores, ZOM is a a perfect amalgam of old and new. Young blood mixed with old death metal feeling. ZOM is best described as being the 12st century bastard child of late 80s death metal in its rawest and purest form. Necrovore, Obscurity (Swe), Incubus and Morbid Angel all spring to mind with this raw, untamed recording!

Invictus is proud to announce the release off the ZOM cassette on Thursday December 29th.
Ireland has always suffered from a lack of the more traditional black and death metal bands over the years but this has slowly began to change. Emerging from the sewers of Dublin is ZOM, who will issue their 5 track demo through Invictus shortly. Taking influence from Hellhammer, Beherit, Morbid Angel, Blasphemy, Celtic Frost, Slayer, Sepultura, Necrophagia, Sodom, the three member line up of Chthon (Sub Sonik Destruktion/Kommands), Sodomaniac (Axe of Khaos/Kommands), Sabbac (Astral Battery) invoke perversion, sorcery, cosmos and death through their primitive, atavistic and ritualistic sounds. The track ‘The Chaos Dimension’ can be heard at www.invictusproductions.net and the demo can now be pre ordered at www.invictusproductions.net/shop
ZOM will play on Thursday December 29 in the Pint (Dublin) in support of the cassette release!
