HAIL CONJURER: INTERVIEWED BY INTO THE NECROSPHERE

HARRI KUOKKANEN of Finland based black metal warriors HAIL CONJURER was recently interviewed by INTO THE NECROSPHERE..

HAIL CONJURER unleashed "ABYSS & EKSTASIS", 9/23/2026 via CRYPT OF THE WIZARD.

FROM INTO THE NECROSPHERE:

Harri Kuokkanen returns to Into The Necrosphere to discuss the tenth Hail Conjurer album, Abyss & Ekstasis, and the very different creative process that brought it to life. We dive into why he felt the need for a fresh approach after a decade of creating Hail Conjurer, the tension between instinct and control that has defined the project since its inception, and how each album has become a process of shedding the skin and becoming something new.

Then, on the Weekly News Rant, Karl Haikara joins me to pay tribute to the late, great Cronos of Venom, reflecting on his enormous influence on black metal and the countless bands who simply would not have existed in the same form without him.  We round up new tracks by Wolves In The Throne Room, Arctos, Goat Major and Dumal for judgment, debate the merits of overly literal storytelling and concept-driven lyrics, answer your questions on Elden Ring and our favourite full live sets available on YouTube, and discuss why some of the best live footage can capture a band in a way that studio recordings simply cannot.

Plus: a Premiere On The Sphere with Black Flame Altar delivering an exclusive preview of their upcoming release, “Runes of Darkness & Blood”.  

Out now on all digital platforms.

FROM DIETH:

DIETH signs new record deal with Fireflash Records, reveal new line-up featuring Tobias Cristiansson (GRAVE, NECROPHOBIC, EX-DISMEMBER) and announce first new single „Pound of Flesh“! 

DIETH are proud to announce their signing with Fireflash Records, which marks the beginning of a new chapter for the band. “This feels like the right home for us, as they share our vision of where we can take the band. We’ve poured our heart and soul into this new music, and I honestly couldn’t be more excited about what we have in store. New line-up, new music, new album – this is just the beginning”, says vocalist and guitarist Guilherme Miranda. 

Alongside the new record deal, the band have unveiled their new line-up, welcoming Swedish bassist Tobias Cristiansson, who is known for his work with GRAVE, NECROPHOBIC and, formerly, DISMEMBER. The new line-up comes as DIETH prepare to launch the next era of the band with new music, a new video, and their second studio album. "It’s a pleasure to welcome my longtime friend Tobias to DIETH. His history speaks for itself, and he fits perfectly with what we’re building. I’m beyond happy and honoured to have him with us for this new chapter.”

The first taste of what is to come will be the single 'Pound of Flesh', one of the band's most brutal tracks to date, which will introduce this new chapter of DIETH. The song will be released alongside a video on 16 October. Guilherme Miranda comments: ‘“Pound of Flesh” is brutal, and that’s exactly what I wanted this song to be. Musically and lyrically, it's one of my favourite things we've done. I'm very excited because it's a new chapter for DIETH. I really can’t wait for you guys to hear and see what we’ve been working on!”

ITP does not promote main stream music nor mall core..Only extreme metal.. There are a couple of labels that are blacklisted, one that is national socialist. A few bands are blacklisted from ITP, and one or two venues. Obviously is someone gets in fight over ITP there will be consequences, NOT YOURS, ITP owns her own copy right. ITP is not a request journal, it is an extreme metal source for extreme metal news, no hipsters, ITP is my journal.
