Japanese death/doom four-piece Coffins return with their most anticipated album “Sinister Oath”, released on March 29th via Relapse Records, and deliver a dark and oppressive piece, highly recommended for fans of Autopsy, Asphyx, and Hooded Menace!

Significant Point is releasing its monsoon of metal mayhem. Be prepared to go ‘Into The Storm’!
Japanese grave robbbers Coffins bring the doom once more on a long overdue new full-length ‘Beyond the Circular Demise’.
