As teasers prior to the releases of chapters 2 and 3 of Season of Mist's Underground Activists division, namely Pest's "Rest In Morbid Darkness" and Hegemon's "Contemptus Mundi", Seasons Of Mist are giving you the opportunity to download one MP3 from each release.

Pest were created with the sole goal to deliver pure Black Metal in the old vein, no females or keyboards involved. As 2007 marks the end of the first decade of Pest with two full length albums and several EP's, "Rest In Morbid Darkness" consists of nine hymns bleeding from infernal energies, violent sickness, lurking horror and triumphant bloodshed, all in the spirit of blackened demo metal. The music is spawned in the darkest of depths from the inhuman mind. Deceitful, deranged and depraved music from the true tyrants of Swedish Black Metal.

French Black Metal act Hegemon have always followed their own path without caring for anybody or anything. The unknown line up, which is still the same since the early days, the violence and the anger of the music and the dedication of the band to its art, have helped Hegemon to be one of the most revered Black Metal hordes in the deep underground. The Hegemon entity now unleash its wrath and skilled traditional black metal on earth through "Contemptus Mundi", an album in which once again all energy and spirit have been put into, mocking the image, the so called rules of black metal and everything else that has nothing to do with music!
