Make Me The Heart of the Black Hole
Hyloxalus
The Canadian band HYLOXALUS, pledges to bring power metal smashed together with industrial thrash and soaring operatic vocals meeting power metal riffs.
Finding Pieces
Final Strike
FINAL STRIKE has all the makings of a kick-ass rocking band with a powerful vocalist, a stellar guitar player and infectious harmonies, so let’s see how it all blends together.
Lost In Memories, Lost In Grief
My Silent Wake
All in all, MY SILENT WAKE has crafted yet another masterful doom metal album that is one of the highlights of the year as we continue to approach the halfway point a little more each day.
Ekbom
Benighted
BENIGHTED have always been at the forefront of extremity and “EKBOM” further solidifies they are not going anywhere and will continue to push the boundaries.
On This Earth
Inver
The album sounds like a person who lost their way in life, metaphorically, and the ease with which this can occur. Sometimes, it’s a lot easier to take the dark path through life, but what causes most people to walk the line?
The Foam of Despair
Mourning Dawn
Overall, this was an excellent album. Threads of pain, torture, failure, and abandonment came through strongest for me, and the music was wonderfully depressing but keen with torment.
Dipygus
Dipygus
Filler aside, the rest of the album is rock solid. For those who like their death metal a little weird and off the beaten path, one could do worse than the self-titled.
Crowned In Blood
This Ending
I gave the previous album an 8 but this one is getting a point higher. The band doesn’t reinvent their sound but they have absolutely nailed it down. The result is a confident album that knows exactly what it is. “
Crowned In Blood
,” is kingly, indeed.
Under The Southern Light
Toxikull
Traditional Metal from Portugal.
Weird Tales
The Vision Bleak
From the album cover to the first video (“Chapter II: In Rue d'Auseil”) to each immersive track, the album pulls you in like a Hammer House of Horror film.
Garden of Heathens
Heavy Temple
It has been almost three years since we had some HEAVY TEMPLE at the Metal Temple. On April 12, 2024 all that changes when High Priestess Nighthawk releases “Garden of Heathens.”
The Center That Cannot Hold
Replacire
This was a majorly intense album that could turn on a dime, roar up like a mountain lion, or retreat with the skill of a mongoose. The band plays with the listener and strings them along for the ride. But every move was calculated, disguised as chaos, and their musicianship was out of bounds.
The Perfect Killing Machine
LIPID
LIPID are a Thrash metal band from Denmark that was created in the distant 1995. […]
Corryvreckan
Hand of Kalliach
This what I call Melodic Death Metal with a personal touch. Both of the vocalists are excellent, and it’s the interplay between their styles which makes the album so good. He ushers in the demons, and she brings the angels with her. Their fight is one for the ages.
Eastern Tales
Belore
This was a fantastic album that pushed symphonic elements as well as aggressiveness and melody. Each was like an ingredient in a soup, that comes together in the end tasting smooth and velvety. It’s heavy enough for Black Metal fans, and melodic enough for those who enjoy that side of music.
Star Spangled Fist Fight
Kickin Valentina
Kickin Valentina formed in 2013 quickly got attention in the US and abroad. October 2013 […]
Where Shadows Rise
Khüll
Overall, this was a decent album, but too many of the songs sounded similar to one another, which, if you know my writing, is a big sticking point with me as a listener and a reviewer.
Portal
Malphas
The album has sweeping musical arrangements that constructed well and obviously thought out in advance, and the quartet has some strong musical talent. This was a good album, but it could have been better if the band would have injected some more variety into things, like that closing song for example…it was incredible.
The Journey
Dreamworm
A short and uninspired journey.
Adon
Adon
It’s nearly impossible not to become immersed in this album, because the sound surrounds you, circles you like prey, and then closes its jaws. You don’t dare even close your eyes, because if you do, you won’t recognize the person you see in the mirror. Their prowess and musicianship is impeccable.
Diogonos
Dionysiaque
This is an uncommon album because the band experiments at unexpected times, while retaining many of the traditional elements that fans have come to enjoy. Their musicianship is also excellent. I thoroughly enjoyed their personal take on Doom.
I Am the Night
Wizard Death
A great 'father to son' relationship allowed this excellent US Metal EP to be born!
Gedankentempeln
Seltsame Erden
The Old Flame of Black Metal still burns on this German band's music.
Putrefaction of Infinite Apogee
Perveration
These Brutal Death Metal adepts must mature a bit more...
Doom Rules Eternally
Distorted Reflection
A very good debut from this Greek Doom Metal trio.
GoreSphere
Cercenatory
A good Brutal Death Metal release from this Colombioan quartet.
On Earth or In Hell
Black Absinthe
A very good mix between heavy Metal, Hard Rock and Punk Rock is what this Canadian trio offers to you. Enjoy it!
Hellenic
The Infernal Sea
The good? The band isn’t without talent, and at least try to present some variation in their music. The not so good? Too many of their songs sound similar. Look, Black Metal can be very inventive, but you have to make a commitment to giving yourself to your music, and not presenting what the fans might expect.
Defeat of Common Sense
Endbroken
ENDBROKEN are a Thrash metal band from France. They started their existence in 2015 but […]
Roots & Shoots Volume 1
Jim Petrik & World Stage
Jim Petrik's home base has always been Ides Of March since 1964. Jim has co […]
Between the Worlds of Life and Death
Vale of Pnath
What truly sets this album apart is its uncompromising commitment to pushing the boundaries of extreme music. With blistering guitar rhythms, bone-crushing drums, and vocals that range from deep gutturals to primal screams, it's a masterclass in musical aggression. Get ready to dive headfirst into the abyss.
Far From Glory
Descent
Descent are back together releasing a face melter of an EP.
III
All Are To Return
Take a look at the album cover to find out what lies within…death, nothingness, void, antimatter, extermination, extinction. This is one extreme way to view global warning and the hand-in-hand catastrophes. Are we too late? I don’t know if there is any discernable way to know for sure. But if we are, this album will play at our funerals.
World View
Notio
Overall, you have to give accolades for a solo venture like this. Albert is a good singer with a lot of range, but his deep vibrato turned me off. The music was also quite odd and strange at times, and I would have a hard time connecting this to a specific audience.
Cruce Signatus
Cruce Signatus
Overall, the album was decent, but it failed to really make a mark because of all of the keyboards and synths. Mind you, I love them as a medium in music, but when it’s nearly the entire sound, you get washed over from them.
Godfrost
Godfrost
“Godfrost” is one of those albums that make you go on a hunting spree for all the artist’s previous materials you can find. We all definitely need more Frost in our lives.
