Peaceville

Peaceville is an English label founded by Paul Halmshaw, also known as Hammy, in 1987. The label primarily focuses on metal music and has gained a reputation for its high-quality releases. In 2000, Peaceville was sold to Snapper Music but continues to thrive under their ownership.

Throughout its history, Peaceville has used various catalog number formats to distinguish different types of releases. From 1987 to 1995, the label used "VILE ### T" for 12-inch singles, maxis, and EPs; "VILE ###" for LPs; and "VILE ### P" for picture LPs. From 1987 to 2002, CD releases were labeled as "CDVILE### / VILE ### CD," while MCDs/singles/EPs were labeled as "CDMVILE### / VILE ### TCD." Limited CDs were marked with "CDXVILE###."

In later years, Peaceville introduced new catalog number formats such as "CC#" for the Collectors Club series of 7-inch records in 1993-1994. Re-issued CDs with slipcases from 1999 onwards are labeled as "CDVILEM###." Since 2002, CDs have been designated as "CDVILEF###," limited CDs as "CDVILEF###X," MCDs/singles/EPs as "CD

Black Medium Current' is the sixth studio album by longstanding Norwegian avant-garde pioneers D?dheimsgard. From their influential & successful beginnings as a raw & grim black metal outfit established during the ongoing swelling of the "second wave" in the early-mid 90's, D?dheimsgard has subsequently evolved into a truly eclectic behemoth with each landmark release; a band now undoubtedly adorned with the mastery of mood & texture through intricate, dark metallic wonderment & unnerving eloquence. 'Black Medium Current' continues on the path set by 2015's monumental & universally lauded 'A Umbra Omega' album; itself a deeply poignant & potent release of vast maturity & insight. And now mastermind Yusaf 'Vicotnik' Parvez returns with this expansive 70-minute venture through the fettered layers of the bleak existential cosmos. The result is an absorbing exploration through the fragility of the mind - nurtured & ultimately unmade through a process of belief & endless turmoil & contradiction & how it sews itself into our reality. 'Black Medium Current' also represents a very personal album for Vicotnik, riding the torrents of tribulation & loss, lusciously entwined within creation. Haunting, cathartic & exquisite moments of reflection, dissected & presented as a meticulously woven canvas of masterful & stirring music taking in a whole host of atmospheres & soundscapes encompassing the divine & the bizarre, from the depths of black metal, to sombre more classically centred piano pieces. 'Black Medium Current' was recorded & mixed at Top-Room Studios by Matias Aaversen & produced by Vicotnik himself, with cover art courtesy of Lukasz Jaszak.
