Reviews
Amen
Nubian Rose
A band that defines itself on a foundation of strong melodies, great hooks, big guitars, and a powerful female vocalist will definitely grab my attention from the start, so I’ll venture into this review with high expectations and, unlike my high school years, I’ll actually pay attention.
Polarity
Night Thieves
NIGHT THIEVES have stuck the landing with “Polarity.” I love the groove, I love the rhythm, I love the vocals.
Marching On
Notörious
“True Norwegian Glam Metal” is how NOTÖRIOUS self describes their musical style. Truth be told, Norway is known more for Death metal than Glam Metal, and more for Soaring White Mountains than Glam Metal, and more for hosting the Nobel Peace Price than Glam Metal, so forgive me if I’m a little skeptical, but I will give them every chance to make me a believer.
The Crimson Temple
Varathron
Hellenic black metal stalwarts VARATHRON return with a surgingly confident slab of fist-waving, head-banging, filthy tunes for the masses.
Black Star Gnosis
Demoncy
Avant-garde Satanic black metal band make a bold statement with "Black Star Gnosis," a worship album for the archfiend.
Latome
Bathory Legion
This album was a personal take on what many of us have come to define as “music” in the traditional sense of the word. It was much more experimental, and a dark story lies somewhere within, and at its core, it was very frightening to listen to.
Vivid Black
Ektomorf
Romanian heavy hitters.
Turning Point
Becoming The Lion
A softer kind of heavy.
Charcoal Grace
Caligula’s Horse
For me, this is a landmark album for the band. They have always existed in the outer recesses of Progressive Metal in the past. But here, they put it all together into a synergistic whole of outstanding musicianship and wondrous melodies that encapsulate the listener. This is an early contender for album of the year for sure.
Darkspace II
Darkspace
Perhaps the best part was all of the layers that the band added, each one piling on top of the listener like another weight on your psyche, until you crack because you just can’t take it anymore. Take a journey to the places you never wanted to visit with “Darkspace II.”
Lustmord – Much Unseen Is Also Here
Lustmord – Much Unseen Is Also Here
For me, the album was as mysterious and amalgamous as the cover art. If you are old enough to remember, it sounds a lot like I-Dosers…something that takes root inside your soul and slowly turns it black.
Encomium to Extinction
Carcinoid
Aussie band CARCINOID's new EP "Encomium to Extiniction" is a bombastic, heavy slab of traditional doom and death that pushes the edges of the coffin.
Exalt and Despair
Selenoplexia
Chicago band SELENOPLEXIA navigates the bloodied waters of blackened death through a surging arterial current of post-metal glory.
Hell On Earth
Sulfuric Storm
One man band SULFURIC STORM brings an anti-racist death metal plea from the Brazilian underground.
Nocturnal Vampyric Bewitchment
Azathoth's Dream
Pennsylvania's AZATHOTH'S DREAM show that the Keystone State is more than just chocolate, shitty sports fans and steel mills.
Hollow
Hauntologist
Much of the guitar work on the album is responsible for the dreamy but frightening and at times completely hopeless feeling that stays with the listener throughout the album, and the sound is as bleak as the album cover. This is an album that will force you to confront things that you thought were buried for good. The fear of the unknown is one of the most powerful fears the human psyche can face.
Lost Tapes Vol. 1
Trapeze
If you still don't know what TRAPEZE was about, this album offers you a fine opportunity to do so. HEAR IT N-O-W!
Destination Destruction
Satan’s Fall
A melodic and hooking Heavy Metal album with Speed/Poweer Metal influences is what is offered to you by this Finnish quintet.
Rainmaker (Reissue)
Rainmaker
This reissue of the Swedish quartet first (and only) album shows as good music is never eroded by time.
Tears Of The Gorgon
March to Die
This album is an answer for all those that say that traditional Heavy Metal is dead.
So Shall It Be
Freakshow
These four veterans of North American Glam Metal and US Metal scene are up to something VERY GOOD!
Dawn Of Malevolence
Bloodphemy
If you want to hear a traditional Death Metal album with some improvements, this album is for you.
Revolution
Acrolysis
. I will say that I do enjoy listening to songs like “Serpentine”, on which you can hear what ACROLYSIS is capable of when they let the adoration go and just sound like themselves.
True Bearings
Freeways
The NWOBHM generation, however, will really be able to melt into what FREEWAYS is offering on “True Bearings”.
Corridors
Unmothered
I would class this as the Dark and Dangerous Goth brother of MASTODON. UNMOTHERED has surpassed all my expectation. This is mint.
Really Good Terrible Things
North Sea Echoes
This album is so unassuming but emotionally impactful at the same time, and as I mentioned above, the duo of Alder and Matheos is able to say so much with so little sonority. That is the mark of truly exceptional songwriting.
Kosmos Brenner
Golden Core
I must conclude that this album, as interesting as it is, will be hard to many listeners to assimilate. They are all over the place in terms of a style, although many hardened elements rule. I am very interesting in learning more about the band however and listening to their next release, and appreciate their willingness to explore.
VIII
Vicinity
Out of Trondheim, in the cold shores of Norway, VICINITY have been crafting their mix […]
The White Elf
Dungeon Wolf
I have to just say it; this is the worst EP I ever heard in my life. DUNGEON WOLF sounds more like People Without Talent on their “The White Elf” EP.
Revealed
Realation
I really didn’t want to label REALATION as a “thinking man’s” hard rock band, but these guys really know how to dig down deep within their inner self and social consciousness, so the label truly fits.
tamat
Paint the Sky Red
“All good things come to an end” the old proverb says. Indeed. This is the band’s swan song, and what a mark they have left in music.
American Gothic
Wayfarer
WAYFARER's fifth album, “American Gothic,” is as deep as it is dark.
Entering the Gateways
Disguised Malignance
Just when I think I’m over Death Metal, a band like DISGUISED MALIGNANCE comes along and makes me reevaluate my assumptions.
In Waves
Fall of Leviathan
The best part of the album for me is the mystery that lies somewhere between the heavier structure and the more delicate ones, creating an unsettling feeling of sorts. This was a good first effort from the band, although I know there are capable of better.
Quad Brutal
Austrian Death Machine
AUSTRIAN DEATH MACHINE is back! Hear to this fine piece of music that blends Thrash Metal, Metalcore, Crossover and more!
AR
Kollapse
One of the best parts of the music is that thick bass guitar…this is an instrument that can really drive home feelings of isolation and emptiness, and man does it ever. Combine this with the tortured vocals and bleak guitars, and you have a recipe for total black isolation.
