IIII
Solbrud
The band works melody into each composition, as well as a range of emotions. Even for its lengthy running time, it never gets boring. They explore as much territory as I have heard a Black Metal band explore and leave no stone unturned. This is an album for all fans of the genre.
Tough Love
Aardvark
Sorry for the Tough Love.
Hamfarir Hugans
Drungi
I am familiar with the harsh nature of the weather in Iceland, as well as the phenomenon that happens to people who don’t get enough sunlight in the winter. Both of these things contribute to the harshness of the music on the album. It is bare bones, no questions asked Metal.
蘇醒 - II – Frailty
OU
The album defies traditional categorization and seamlessly blends disparate elements into a cohesive and surprisingly harmonious whole, reminding us that creativity knows no boundaries and that beauty can emerge from the most unexpected combinations.
Goodnight My Children
The Neptune Power Federation
The Neptune Power Federation are an Australian band who's first album “ Mano A Santo” […]
Manifesto
Sunburst
Obviously, the band has talent. I appreciate the way that they hold back from letting that take over the album though. They do cut loose every now and again, and these little snippets keep the listener engaged and excited. It’s the songwriting that is the main star here. They could have easily written and performed a few 12 minute+ songs, but instead, they have meticulously composed an album with eight outstanding pieces that don’t overstay their welcome.
Humanism
Malconfort
It’s hard to even draw a peer comparison to this band, but if I had to, I would say they are on the same planet as IHSAHN at least. But they occupy half of the celestial body as their own, and live in the shadows. The songwriting and musicianship are outstanding. If you are in for something different, something with a lot of character, style, and substance, give “Humanism” your time. It has album of the year potential for sure.
Lumina
Theragon
A very good surprise is this Heavy/Power Metal quintet from Spain with its new EP.
The Restoration - Joseph Part Two
Neal Morse
Another excellent release of Neal Morse (but you alreadyknew it).
Roses In Ruins
Modern Mimes
This Modern/Alternative Metal act really gurads some surprises for the fans.
The Grove
Ember Belladonna
Flutes and Metal isn't a new combination, but the way depicted on this album surely is.
The Common Thread
Contortion
And after 10 years, this excellent Groove Metal act is back for anoher round!
Grey and Dry
Agonista
Furious and nasty, this Mexican Hardcore/Crossover quartet will tear your ears to shreds!
Aftermath Chronicles
Isospin
This was a decent album. The light use of symphonic elements augments the music well, and you can tell that the band put a lot of thought into their compositions.
Quindeccenial Horror
Puteraeon
If you follow the development of the Swedish Death metal scene then the name PUTERAEON […]
Pure Purge
Warfield Within
“Pure Purge” is predominantly a Death Metal release with a Thrash Metal twist
De Facto De Jure
Esodic
“De Facto De Jure” is a release for Thrash Metal fans who are open for traditional Folk music
Doomsday Goes Away
Haystack
Haystack originally formed by Ulf Cederlund in 1994 (Entombed,, Murder Squad, Alpha Safari and Swarm […]
Never Return
Svneatr
This was an excellent album, and the way the band blended hardened Black Metal elements with melodies was quite impressive. If you like your souls thick and dark, with a side of sweet blood, give this album your time.
Maze
Sun Of Nothing
All in all, “Maze” is a nasty album with a sound that is nearly palpable. The extremity of the album is nothing short of impressive but also just as immersive. Any fan of underground music that goes against the grain needs this in their collection.
The Glory and the Fallen
Leah
LEAH doesn’t disappoint with “The Glory and the Fallen” but neither does she thrill. She stays in a safe space, consistently on brand. No one will accuse her of betraying her fanbase.
A Pale Crown
Narbeleth
NARBELETH may have relocated across half the globe, and they may have left part of their dark hearts in Havana—but they have lost none of their resolute evil.
Violent Outbursts and False Accusations
Lost Psychonaut
Hailing from Southwestern Pennsylvania, LOST PSYCHONAUT rides the riff while belting out tasty melodies to soothe your tortured soul with bounds of groovyness.
Nocturnal Will
Dödsrit
DÖDSRIT continue to be one of the more exciting bands in the blackened scene because their offers a lot of variety that makes it very appealing to all sorts of fans, even metalheads who usually shy away from black metal, or anything related to it. “Nocturnal Will,” represents a band that has really found their sound with no signs of slowing down.
Paleobotany
Botanist
This a very personal album with a sentimental message. The way that they combine varied elements into their music is sometimes jarring and dissonant; a reminder that life isn’t always pleasant. It has an unusual sound that I believe will appeal to many Post Metal enthusiasts.
Intoxicated Primitive Anthropophagus
Secreted
When you see the cover artwork depicting two neanderthales eating human meat next to a […]
Lightning Spawn
Thorndale
Not much of a stoner.
Psychonaut
Siriun
Their high level of musicianship and uncompromising energy is probably the best part of the album. Although 13 songs overstay their welcome a bit in my opinion, they did keep the energy up and used grooves at times to vary their sound. They clearly have talent, so watch out for this quartet in the future.
Syncretic Sovereign
Anahata
The album cover is nice.
Medusa
Russell Guns
Another Frontiers Records project, collaboration brings together two legends of hard rock Jack Russell of […]
Sykofant
Sykofant
One of the tenants of Progressive music is that it expands existing stylistic boundaries associated with specific genres of music. This album definitely fits that definition. It borders on pretentious at times, but what saves it is the band’s obvious affinity for expressing themselves openly. A couple of the songs are unnecessarily long, and there is a lot to unwind, but there is a lot to like here on the quartet’s debut album.
The Empyrean Equation of the Long Lost Things
Vandenplas
This was a fantastic album. For me, the best part of the album was listening to the complex compositions and their impeccable musicianship. Although the music is sophisticated, it is also very easy to listen to.
Almost There
Livgone
The entire album was best at creating suspense, and unleashing it, with murderous potency. Although Elise’s vocals seem innocuous at times, and even beguiling, they will lure you in with charm and a smile, before the poison sets in and takes hold.
Persona Non Grata
Decrowned
This was a solid album that I believe will appeal to Metalheads who crave that deep punch and power of Metal, but it also offers some melody within the beatings, for those who need a seasoning of that with their musical palate. The entire affair was both dark and energizing.
Put Your Hands Ip
Vick LeCar
“Put Your Hands Up” is a five track EP and follow up to Vick LeCar's […]
Warriors
Feuerschwanz
If you're a Folk Rock, Medieval Rock, Folk Metal or any other label you care about fan, this German band's music is for you! Enjoy both the -re-recordings and the new songs!
