Who Is This Label Likely to Fit?

A long-running (since 1997), currently very active Kraków-based Black Metal specialist label; a plausible target for raw/orthodox black metal acts with some existing recorded output, though it does not publish any stated demo process, so direct contact to confirm submission expectations is advisable.

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

Demo & Submission Information

The label does not publish a stated demo-submission policy, submission address, or geographic restriction on its official website, so no particular submission process should be assumed. Artists should contact the label directly through its official website (utsogp.pl) or social channels first to confirm whether it is currently open to new submissions and how it would like material sent.
