My name is N Skog, founder of Hypnotic Dirge Records, an underground black / doom metal label active since 2008.
Considering there will be much news related to Hypnotic Dirge Records this year, instead of clogging up the forum with new posts for each new bit of news, I will post all HDR info in this thread to keep things organized in one location.
I won't post much from the past, although I'll start the thread off by posting a bit of news from the last couple weeks.
For those unaware, here is a bit of information about Hypnotic Dirge...
From our Manifesto:
"Hypnotic Dirge Records is an independent non-profit record label and webshop based in Saskatoon, Canada. Our intention and raison d'être is to release quality expressive and eclectic art through aural manifestations. We care not about strict definitions based on genre classifications, but many of our album releases so far could probably fall within the Black Metal and Doom Metal classification though with significant experimental deviations throughout including elements of post-rock, progressive metal, acoustic music, jazz, and trip-hop. As long as the music is genuine, visceral, and has strong musicianship (not necessarily technical proficiency) by real artists then the associated genre is irrelevant. "
