Purity Through Fire

Purity Through Fire is a German black metal label and mailorder shop founded in 2010 out of the remains of the earlier Det Germanske Folket and Hammermark Art projects. Based in Saxony, it has grown into an active outlet for European black metal with pagan, folk, and Viking-metal leanings, moving a substantial and continuously refreshed catalogue across CD, vinyl, and tape through its own storefront.

Who Is This Label Likely to Fit?

An active, established German black metal label (since 2010) with a wide-ranging pagan/folk/Viking-inflected roster and a steady, well-stocked release schedule; best suited to bands already active in the European black metal underground, but no public demo policy or submission channel could be verified so direct contact is needed to confirm current openness to submissions.

This is Metal-Labels' analysis based on available roster and activity data, not a claim made by the label itself.

Demo & Submission Information

No demo submission policy, dedicated submission page, or stated geographic restriction is published anywhere on the label's official website, shop, or social channels as of this research. Before sending material, contact the label directly via the address listed on its official shop (info@purity-through-fire.com) to confirm whether it is currently open to submissions and what it wants to receive.
