Naukati presents a new 3.5 hour masterwork, "Undressing the Dusk."  Alaska-based black metal / dark ambient dirges conjuring nostalgic images of overgrown, forgotten worlds.   Available for $9.99 at CDBaby.

Sutreak: Wilderness Installation -- Out Now

Sutreak's debut album, "Wilderness Installation," is now available.  Masterful, supernatural, esoteric ambient music which would appeal equally to fans of Burzum or Boards of Canada.  One of our favorite Silvis Records to date.  Download a copy at CDBaby, and fill your autumn with visions of remote otherworlds.

It's been a busy summer/autumn in the studio; expect the coming months to hold many new releases.

New: Garapanax "Shop and Sweat" Full-Length

New summer jams from Garapanax.  "Shop and Sweat" is the group's most comprehensive and ambitious statement to date; a tropical trance period piece featuring a barrage of vintage 80s drum machines, a live afro-cuban percussion section, and vintage synth pumping out Mironesian-influenced trance.  Get it and get soaked in sun and nostalgia.

Now Available: Ataxeta "Dagwiig" 7"

Silvis Records presents "Dagwiig" -- a new 7" by Ataxeta -- now available on CDBaby for the modest cost of $2.49.  Two blistering 7 minute tracks of monumentally harrowing southeast Alaskan black metal oppression.

Alaska-based artist Ataxeta explores southeast Alaska's esoteric geopsychology and associated demonology. Ataxeta's "Oppressive Black Metal" style combines a diverse array of instruments, meditative ambience, gnostic formula composition techniques, and dub-like production to create an effect of intellectual and spiritual gain through absolute darkness and abandon.

New Release: Cantharellus "Loam into Bolete"

Just in time for the start of Alaska's Boletus edulis season is a new grunge/gaze-filled EP by Cantharellus.  Get it over at CD Baby for the modest sum of $2.49.  Vintage surf guitars tremolo-gliding through cranked British amps with the straightforward power of Isn't Anything-era MBV.

Naukati's Nahasaga: 4.5 hours of Ambient BM

Silvis Records has finally made Naukati's 4.5 hour album "Nahasaga" available.  "Nahasaga" is Naukati's most definitive and complete statement of esoteric, ambient black metal.  The album dates to 2013.  Until recently, we were unable to achieve a satisfactory digital release due to length.  Nahasaga provides an unparalleled meditative journey, reflective of southeast Alaska's dark, decaying dreamscapes.

Cantharellus "Philippine Sea" EP -- now availble!

After a long wait, new material from shoegaze titans Cantharellus is here!  The Philippine Sea EP contains late 80s / early 90s style tremolo-bending, offset-guitars through cranked Brit amps.  Sound familiar?  There "isn't anything" quite like it... if you know what we mean.  The album showcases the live sound of the band, using minimal tracks and very limited studio chicanery to capture Cantharellus' enormous natural sound and tone.  Recorded on Revillagigedo Island, Alaska under some heavy Micronesian influence.
