Sutekh Hexen-(44.947089, -123.031742) (45.521560, -122.527929)
GSR 030
In honor of the total solar eclipse of MMXVII, whose path of totality crosses over the land in which this material was manifested, these two cassettes hereby document a re-envisioning of the original source material previouslyreleased on SALEM.
The first was the (sun)
And this is the sun obscured by the (moon)
Boundaries trespassed
Thresholds distorted
Malleable time; synaesthesia:
The sound of a great shadow passing over the earth
Original source produced by Sutekh Hexen: 01 June 2014. Recorded by GreySun: The Wisp House (44.947089, -123.031742)

A random undisclosed number will come in a black envelope with eclipse inspired art.

Funeral Mourning- Left Seething Yet Unspoken & Veneration of Broken Worlds (GSR 029)
Funerary sermons & finality exhumed by Desolate at the ‘Altar of Dried Bones’ during the “Inertia of Dissonance (A Sermon in Finality)” sessions – MMXVI : MMXVII
Mastered by Dredged Oblivion
Veneration, the everlasting ode of misery unfurls its ravenous tongues.
Enthroned, upon the remains of two broken worlds…
Bury, Exhume! Bury, Exhume!
This howling corpse keeps raising to kill the flame in my fucking heart.
And we sail upon distant seas to nowhere – all the way to an endless nowhere. Yet i yield to nothing, nowhere, always and never…
Edition of 100 cassettes,25 random tapes came with a full color 11×17 “poster”.
Some of the best funeral doom available at this time.
Lluvia-Enigma
GSR 021
Three cassettes housed in a printed cardboard box, photo insert,medallion of Saturn,and velum insert with a request from Lord Vast to not upload the recording to the internet.
Sold out.
I recieved complaints regarding the quantity/limited availabilty of this release. No one was given advanced knowledge as to when it was going to be sold, this was a highly anticipated release and was bound to sell out quickly. I listed Enigma and then announced it on the GreySun instagram site.
Yes,shipping the box overseas WAS THAT EXPENSIVE!
No, there were no boxes set aside for later.
Sutekh Hexen- Salem
GSR 020

Leadeater-Oxalis
GSR-017
Leadeater-Oxalis A 2nd edition will be available in January 2017.
This recording originally came to me via e mail from James of Leadeater.
I took one listen to Oxalis,and I was instantly taken in.
Words can’t describe the ride that I was taken on while listening to Oxalis, I enjoyed this recording so much, that I played it over and over, while working and driving. I would best decribe it as a combonation of Ambient-drone/Atmospheric Black Metal. You will not be dissapointed.
This month(Septmeber 2017) will see the reissue of two long sold out releases, Solace and Leadeater. If you missed the physical editions the first time around, be sure to pick them up as soon as they are available!
