THE VOID JOURNAL is an underground music webzine , officially launched on the 5th of January 2017 (it actually started as a blog on wordpress  earlier, but the concept was completed and formalized on that date).
The idea behind it is clear from the very  beginning – to pay due respect to the lesser known and specific dark sounds of the Bulgarian and global underground, especially those of the black metal genre.
To give shelter to the most fascinating titles of the music world, which often remain neglected by the media or are  presented in a mediocre and inadequate way.
As an ideology, ‘The Journal’ or ‘THE VOID’, as many of you call it, supports the belief that underground music and culture is the main way to fight and  destroy  mediocre thinking, to fight against the limitations of society.
In other words, this is not just a website, but a symbol of rebellion against society, against its lower manifestations.
And furthermore, following the path of Luciferianism as a philosophy, the site follows the belief in the power of the individualist against  the mass.

THE VOID JOURNAL is a place where an individual shares their passion for music and strives to spread the best of obscure genres on a daily basis, whether it is popular or not.
This isn’t the place to see news about Iron Maiden or other bands of that caliber – this is the place to come across news , reviews and interviews , featuring new and often completely unknown bands and albums, or old and cult names that are making subjugating music that takes your breath away.
In short, a truly cult venue, for cult listeners with an open mind, certainly far away from the poser scene…

 

 

Some facts about The Void Journal:

1. The Void Journal was founded on January 5th, 2017. Quite a thoughtful date – the church feast  called „Krystovden“ is celebrated then. A devilish wink to the Jehovah’s Witnesses and the kickoff of the „conversion“ with fascinating  music under the burning  wing of The Void Journal.

2. The main genre that ventures onto the site is BLACK METAL. Occasionally specific genres as  dark folk, death metal, doom metal ,  post-black metal and post-rock genres find their way into the webzine’s pages, too.

2. In 2019, two years after its inception, the site gained „popularity“ (such a dirty word…) and began working directly with musicians, labels and PR agencies, becoming an official udnerground online mediа.

3. The Void Journal is the first Bulgarian webzine working directly with labels like Season of Mist, Terratur Posessions, Prophecy Productions & etc. The site is their first (and for now only) official media partner in Bulgaria.

4. The site is currently  most visited in countries like Bulgaria, USA, Germany & France, but these stats change daily and the reach is expanding.

5. Monthly,  the site has about 400 000 visits (in the less active periods).

 

 

 

 

6. The Void Journal is the first online media in the Balkans dedicated entirely to the cult of the darker side of the  underground scene – in particular, black metal.
