Duplicate Records has a bunch of new releases on the way. First up later this month is Mëkanïk and their debut MCD "Der Mëkanïk Grööves", a band described as "black metal taking acid with 70s proggers like Van Der Graaf Generator and having sex with Black Sabbath," or as they say, "Black Space Doom". Ex-members from Dismal Euphony and Gehenna, so yeah, definitely interesting to say the least. Next up in late June is Norwegian viking metal act Eljudner with the 7" "Blod og kvad" and following that later this summer is a reissue of black-thrashers Infernö and their albums "Downtown hades" and "Utter hell" combined in a single set. As for the future, look for new releases from Warbastard and Beyond Dawn, details to be announced... eventually.
