	FPR001 Darkest Grove - The Rudimentary Of Pessimism Cass. Formed in 2000 from the ashes of dying memories. First and only demo from Darkest Grove, in the vein of Burzum and/or Graveland, with a mixture of its own with times of doom.

	MP3 "Wandering Through The Limbo Of This World Pt I (inthelivingshell) SOLD OUT
	FPR002 Sombrous - Trancending The Umbra CD Description: Sombrous is the literal transference of thoughts and ideas into ambient sound waves. The songs, or soundscapes try to recreate these ideas in a tangible way for the listener, and more importantly for my own reflection. Influences: Isolation, Indifference, Steve Roach, Robert Rich, Brannan Lane, life and death, 1980's era ambient music, lots of tribal ambient. Similar Artists: Global Communication, Biosphere, Raison D'etre, Seelenblut.
	MP3 "Ever Transcending The Umbra"

	FPR005 Incursus s/t 7" EP Formed in the late 90s from the ashes of "Black Winters Eve" by VJS also known as Vlasoroth. This is the first official release. Bound in dark ritual, inspired by the evil in man. Incursus play occult black metal exclusively, with close similarities to the early norwegian scene. For the few that can still get some sort of comfort out of an evil manifested reality.
	MP3 "Black Burial" SOLD OUT
	FPR006 Nightbringer/Temple Of Not "Rex Ex Ordine Throni" split DLP After a long delay the split album was finally released. Nightbringer play occult black metal well crafted and elegant in a twisted matter while still managing to keep a fairly fresh sound. Expect alot of dark atmosphere penatrating through the Nightbringer. Temple Of Not is a dark ambient noise project from members of Nightbringer. The inspiration for this is none other than death itself through the sores eyes of a cynical mind. SOLD OUT!!!
	MP3 Nightbringer"Vir Sapiens Dominabitur Astris" / T.O.N. "The Sunken Houses Of Sleep" (1 copy available again!)
	FPR007 Ohtar - Petrified Breath Of Hope CD 2nd full length album from Ohtar "Petrified Breath Of Hope" leaves off where the debut started but adding some maturity to its musicianship. Ohtar has a blend of several styles, inspired by black metal but playing in a melodic,hateful, and depressive way all blended together. Ohtar offers something that not alot of other bands do, and not something that is overused for sure. Ohtar carry the Polish black metal flag on, but in a new direction from their predecessors. SOLD OUT
	MP3 Light Manacled In Shackles Of Ice" SOLD OUT
	FPR008 Nightbringer/Serpentinam 10" vinyl Exclusive release not to be repressed or redone in any format. This means no CD or Cassette version. Nightbringer bring two new tracks to this release, that will both be on their upcoming album "Death And The Black Work" but these are alternate versions. Serpentinam also from the misty mountains of Colorado, play minimalistic occult black metal doom. This band shows promise and we can only expect Serpentinam to improve where this two track album leaves off.
	MP3 Nightbringer"Feast Of Manes" / MP3 Serpentinam"Mercury In Eclipse" (5 copies found and available)
	FPR009 Darkest Grove - Pain And Suffering Shall Be Known CD This album is full of emotion and passion. Taking a mixture of influences musically from different styles of black metal from aggressive, to more depressive. Conceptually this is not a black metal album and like the demo is a journey through philosophy or nihilism. This album is a conceptual album about living or dying to live and dying, having absorbed all the negativity that one can possibly take. There is nothing fun about this album unless you are the type of person who gets off on contradicting philosophy, hence it being only one outlook of many as we may know from all the worlds cultures.
	MP3 "Repudiating Ideology, Of Lies And Deceit" / MP3 "Sacrifice Of Life Itself"
	FPR010 NAV(HaBb) Halls Of Death gatefold LP Finally the vinyl version of this great album is available. Debut album after two great demo releases. Izbor even with this raw sound manages well with this album. Izbor also session drummer for Old Wainds is the main writer behind this great Russian black metal band. NAV calls for the death of sheep!!
	MP3 "The Black God" LAST COPIES
	FPR011 Nightbringer - Death And The Black Work 3xLP Box Set Out from the night here is their debut album. A long 3+ year wait that will prove worth the time its taken. Obscured with occult mysticism and blackness Nightbringer have a unique swarming atmosphere that separates them from other black metal bands. This album has progressed where their two split albums left off. They have managed to delve even deeper into the roots of black metal on this album and we are almost certain most people will not be able to deny their presence in the genre. (Licenced By Full Moon Productions)
	MP3 "The River Lethe"
	FPR012 Tenebrous - Opus Magnum digi CD The lords of the black stone return with their second magnum opus. Tenebrous prove the worth of a strong USBM entity. Driven by pagan tribal interludes and fast to mid paced black metal the riffs never cease to empower potent energy. The hatred of this embodiment of dark minds adds to the atmosphere only to reap the listener deeper into the abyss. Anyone who thinks USBM is a lost cause haven’t heard Tenebrous.
	MP3 "Lords Of The Black Stone"
	FPR013 Ohtar - Human Fuel Of Death CD After the decent reviews regarding Ohtars 2nd album, finally the third is underway. Back with vengeance and pretty much a new line up. Necro has now a new drummer & guitarist amongst the ranks of Ohtar and the outcome is? More aggression and some new elements unknown in the previous recordings. Also a rerecorded version of Song Of War. Here you'll get a bit of depressive behavior,melodic passages with more aggressive outbursts and even death metalish like vocals. Not sure if this should be called black metal but for those who don't mind a decent production and well written songs should find the new Ohtar desirable. This definitely isn't like the older albums and has evolved to say the least for those who haven't heard the last album or so.
	MP3 "The Blackness Of Thorns, In The Blueness Of The Sky" LAST COPIES
	FPR014 Incursus - Eternal Funeral Trance Digi CD Influenced only by the essence of darkness.This hideous coalessence can be found inside us all, but only those who are brave enough to explore its depths or are forced-to by their undying contempt for banality, can express it authentically... Incursus is evil, glorified and channeled by the two wretched souls that enshroud this covenant with their mercilessness. Take a journey into what is being called black metal in one of its purest forms, which only a accursed few will ever be able to grasp. warning This type of "music" is not for everyone! self label proclaimed "The best true black metal album of the last few years since Deathspell Omega's "Inquisitors Of Satan" or Katharsis' "Kruzifixxion" album."
	MP3 "Untitled..." (excerpt)
	FPR015 Lord Foul - Killing Raping Burning / The Devils Advocate CD & LP (later) From the corn fields of Kentucky, before black metal was well known in the states. FPR is proud to announce for the first time officially, the release of cult demo from 1993, Killing Raping Burning with the unreleased demo "The Devils Advocate"All remastered from the original tapes. Reborn for a lot of people in 98 when Nargaroth covered their song "I Burn For You". This is and was a lost gem of the U.S. black metal underground. Fans of early Havohej will take a liking to this.
	MP3 "Dead Man" (Check Myspace Page www.myspace.com/foreverplaguedrecords)
	FPR016 Graveland - Drunemeton CD / LP + poster Originally recorded in November 1992, this promo was released after the first demo. This was truly the beginning for what was to become one of the most hateful black metal bands of all time. Filled with absolute passion and disgust, this truly paved the way for the Polish black metal underground. Frequently known for their release of "Thousand Swords" this is a nostalgic journey back into the darkest days of Graveland.
	MP3 "Drunemeton"
	FPR017 Graveland - Necromanteion CD Forever Plagued Records is proud to announce that we will be officially releasing the demo that started it all for an unknown Polish band, later to become one of the most infamous of all time. Do not support any other release of this on CD as this is the first and only official release for "Necromanteion". This will also include the 92 promo that followed and was released before the "Drunemeton" promo tape. Very slow paced and driving. This is Graveland when they had a more death metal edge to them, yet the conviction was always there.
	MP3 "The Quest"(Check Myspace Page www.myspace.com/foreverplaguedrecords)
	FPR018 NAV(HaBb) - The Wolf Sun CD / LP (coming later) Coming from cold northern Russia are HaBb pronounced NAV in English. Back with their second opus, spreading pride and power for survival from the frozen regions where they reside. Evolving into a more diverse metal spectrum. You will hear even some early speed metal influences within "The Wolf Sun". Recorded in a pro studio the sound has also taken a big jump forward from where the two demos & the debut left off. Tons of catchy riffs to be heard here and quality musicianship should leave fans atleast satisfied with this new album.
	MP3 "Foretelling Dream" (first press - SOLD OUT)
	FPR019 Graveland - In The Glare Of The Burning Churches CD This is one of my all time favorite black releases hands down. It has drive, power, hate, and all the darkness one could hope for from a black metal release. Try playing this at any party or in front of any group of people and watch the atmosphere change almost immediately in the faces of those consumed by this piece of audial violence. The screams on the alternative version which is used on this reissue vibrates straight into the core of the darkest side of your mind, causing a feeling of discomfort or pure ecstasy drenched in hate. Tracklisting on this reissue has the alternative demo and EP that was used on the No Colours version but also has a few bonus tracks from Epilogue and the regular demo. This mix gives more of an equal ambient/black metal twist making the atmosphere even darker overall.
	FPR020 Graveland - The Celtic Winter CD One of the most hateful black metal bands of all time!! The sound, atmosphere, lyrics, and raw aggression of Celtic Winter can easily conjure up some of the most hateful emotions,and over most of the highest regarded black metal bands of the last few decades. Be swept into the total death spirit of early Graveland. Tracklisting on this reissue is the same as the No Colours version with artwork more relative to the original cassette version that came out in 93 on Melissa records.
	FPR003DS Toil s/t demo I Cassette Toil one man project by Lurker. This is the first demo released out of four demos by other various labels. In this earliest stage of Toil the music was at its simplest,raw,mid paced, black metal, very reminscent of the "Following The Voice Of Blood" Graveland era. This demo also includes a cover of "Thurisaz".
	MP3 "Imperial Gleam" SOLD OUT
	FPR004DS Frozen Glare - Bewitched Lost Souls Demo Cassette A newer black metal band native of Greece. Here you will hear some parts relative to the old greek scene but also a bit more symphonic. Though we weren't promised to much from this band I'm sure this is only a stepping stone of whats to come for the future of Frozen Glare.
	MP3 "Ecatombe"

	Upcoming releases from Forever Plagued Records
	FPR023 Demoncy - Enthroned Is The Night CD/LP This album will be a step back in time that really gave Demoncy the "sound" that absorbed the listener into the darkness that has always driven IXithra and his musical endeavers. Down tuned guitars and more of those ritualistic chanting vocals that were on "Joined In Darkness". (Delayed until further notice)
