Out now:


MORDAEHOTH
"Eens weer prevaleert het heidens hart" CD / LP / MC

After the ritual number of nine years since the release of the 'Bloedwraak' debut album, Mordaehoth returns from the fog-veiled swamps of the pagan lowlands to present their all new full-length album. Carved, burnt and built during years, 'Eens weer prevaleert het heidens hart' (not to be confused with the same titled 1998 demo) offers the ultimate grim pagan metal opus from The Netherlands: long and dark warhymns, blending bitter melancholy over lost ages with flaming hate for the postmodern world; and pride in taking action in the revolt against it! In a truly overcrowded scene Mordaehoth deserves your attention by standing out with a mix of pagan and black metal and influences of dark folk with added atmosphere of occasional keyboards and clean vocals.

In an age where blogspots rape true underground mentality we offer you the format of choice in excquisite presentation:
- CD in A5 digipack edition with 16 page booklet, limited to 500 handnumbered copies;
- LP in white vinyl, 12" x 24" fold-out cover with 16 page A5 booklet, limited to 300 handnumbered copies;
- MC on pro-printed, high quality cassettes, limited to 300 handnumbered copies.
All versions have been hand-assemblied, so please excuse minor imperfections! All printing is done in full-colour, on high-gloss, laminated paper. A release of New Era Productions and Heidens Hart. Photos and more info on www.heidenshart.nl.nu



MURW
"In de mond van het onbekende wacht een oceaan" cd 2007/2010

Detached, twisted and deranged black metal from The Netherlands. Progressive and technical compositions - no easy-listening here, but an intense rotten expression and depressed, doomed journey into the self. Material is highly unique and intelligent, no two tracks are alike, and nothing is Murw alike!
'In the mouth of the unknown, an ocean awaits' was originally self-produced and self-released by the band on cdr and cassette in 2007, being their most recent work to date. Heidens Hart Records is now proud to announce this unique album has been professionally mastered and is now available on cd.

Also recently released:

NU IS ALLES ANDERS - "Het eeuwige leven" tape 2010
Hypnotic and monotonous black metal, that is not necessarily minimalistic. Often close to ten guitarparts are layered to create riffs without clear beginning and ending, into an almost cacophonous whole, but still vast and epic as the cosmos itself. Escapism put in music - let the stars show your way. No keyboards, no drumcomputers, no artificiality, no humans. Probably our best selling release of a "new band" without any kind of promotion.

DESASTRIOUS (USA) - "Loekr inn Niflheim" tape 2010
Violent and primitive terrorist black metal. One of the most hated and at the same time underrated American black metal projekts. Contains also the 'Necroanal ceremonium' demo. Released on pro tape, limited to 333 handnumbered copies.


All are available now via www.heidenshart.nl.nu

On a related note:

We can now announce that Heimdalls Wacht's latest album 'Nichtorte' will be repressed by me. The dissapearance of the band's previous label left a big demand for the album, which remained hardly distributed and thus nearly impossible to find besides from the band itself. A repress of the album was requested, and so it shall be. Expected releasedate: end of Februari / beginning of March.
