UKEM Records

Under the mystic working title Beyond Bloodied Banners Far And Haunted Winters Graven, Frostwork and Cruelty’s Heart release their first split via upcoming and intensively growing label Ukem Records. Oh yes, great cover artwork too…

I hadn’t heard of this band before, but apparently these four guys from West Yorkshire (U.K.) hadn’t released but one single ep, The Extent Of Human Error (late Autumn 2012). Then the band recorded some new songs, which were send out to e.g. Ukem Records. Label manager Chris Newby listened to it and he was convinced as from the very first listen. Logical result: he was prepared to have this material released on his label.

Abomnium are the main project of a guy called Sapient, who originates from the United Kingdom, but who lives in the Netherlands right now. With Abomnium, he recorded two albums in the past, the self-released Rites Like Chains (2011) and Coffinships in 2013, the debut for UKEM Records.
