Reckless Heart
Palace
This was a fantastic album that brought the feel good melodies from the 1980’s to today, like a time machine. The vocals and ensuing harmonies might have been the best part, but those catchy guitar riffs and glittering keyboards were not too far behind.
Shades of Night
Nokturnal
The raw and ragged blackened death shredding to help pioneer the resurgance and pay homage to an old school sound that gave birth to death in the 80's and the tones of the original black metal.
Polaris
Lodestar
LODESTAR deliver an album for Gothic Metal fans and many of those might like what they hear
Eternal Rising
Xeneris
The debut album of XENERIS is promising. “Eternal Rising“ has elements of symphonic Metal, melodic Metal, and Power Metal and this is all well mixed together
Relics of Time

Expelled into Suffering
Assimilator
Assimilator – Expelled into Suffering Oh Fuck! You’re gonna make me Suffer??? Assimilator's EP "Expelled […]
Ex Umbra In Lucem
Lamentari
This album has it all…outstanding musicianship, full, rich sounds from the orchestral arrangements, and enough hate and hellfire to cast an angel down to the pit and burn him through.
Atomic Kings
Atomic Kings
Atomic Rock.
Tir nan Og
Drunemeton
DRUNEMETON’s “Tir Nan Og,” is a black metal album that steps outside the box even as it holds onto its roots, resulting in a raw but dynamic album that will appeal to a lot of people even if they don’t like black metal.
Fatum
Dantalion
All in all
DANTALION
’s “
Fatum
” is a tortuous journey through utter darkness. It stabs and beats you along the way, not even offering more than the briefest respite. If this is your type of music (and if not, it needs to be) this is an album that if you missed last year, might as well jump in now and embrace the sweet, sweet misery.
Echoes of Primordial Gnosis
Winter Eternal
From Bandcamp, “WINTER ETERNAL return with their boldest record yet: “Echoes of Primordial Gnosis.” While […]
Zombique
Final Cry
Like a rapist with no hands...
Indifferent Universe
Ordalie
This was an excellent album, especially considering this came at the hands of one composer. He painted a picture of darkness, of torture, of anger, and of hopelessness, and it was all done with a twist of evil.
Incitement of Violence
Extinct
The spirit of '80s American thrash metal is alive & well in Northern Germany.
Sonic Forces
Captain Black Beard
Another great AOR re-issue from Pride & Joy
Rise of the Ruan~angh
Eremit
I can’t think of a better piece of music to bridge the gap between their much awaited fourth full-length album. Quite simply, “
Rise of the Ruan~angh
” continues to add to the band’s growing legend and solidifies their place in the pantheon of modern doom.
Visioning
Patriarchs In Black
Dan
hasn’t been part of a bad album—-he and
Johnny
are proving themselves to be quite the duo. As their legacy continues to grow so does their offerings of great music that hits all the right notes. Any fan of metal needs this album in their collection.
Another World
issa
The Queen of AOR/melodic rock is back with album number 8
Exit Plan
Withering Surface
I would challenge them to push themselves into unexplored territory, especially in this genre, where the boundaries are limitless. It’s as solid as anything that I have heard this year, but they just played it too safe in my opinion.
Deadened Nerves
Torturers’ Lobby
This North American Black/Thrash/Metal Ounk act just need a better sonority...
Horizons
Mist Descends
A good release of a band that has too much to offer.
New Worlds
Jo Below
A very good Hard Rock EP from this Finnish act.
Iron & Oak
Greystone Canyon
WOW, this is a great Hard Rock release, cowboys!!!
The Fourth Horseman
Deathwish
Taste this corrosive mix between Metal, Punk Rock, Hardcore and Rock 'n' Roll!
Slice ‘Em All
Catbreath
A brutal Crossover/Hardcore release to destroy ears and necks!
Fantoom van de Deemsterburcht
Magistraal
The wild drums, depraved vocals, and just the right use of melody make the experience raw and as haunted as it is haunting. It’s one of those black metal albums that has moments of surprising beauty even in utter darkness.
The Black River
Nihilo Machina
This was a fantastic album, that combined many of the traditional elements of Black Metal with just enough melody and symphony to keep it interesting, Considering this was all done by one person, this is an amazing testament to his vision.
Killing Karma
Disbelief
“Killing Karma” is a deadly delivery of aggressive hammering, spine-chilling atmosphere, and a grim melodic framework with melancholic elements
Aumicide
Atrae Bilis
“Aumicide“ is a triptych of brutality, atmosphere, and melancholy with a few progressive twists
Cult of the Dead
Miruthan
This was a promising debut EP for the Black Metal band out of Australia. They should be proud, and I am looking forward to what they have to offer next. Keep these guys on your radar for sure.
Bestairy
Protosequence
A disgusting evolution into progressive technical death that has elements of deathcore exploding out of Canada.
...Discontinued
Malignancy
Like a Shotgun blast, this album will shred through your senses with sporatic tempos, raging blast beats with some solid goove undertones that create a torrent of aggression and technical death
Goon
Ivy Gardens
“Goon” by IVY GARDENS. Pretty cool stuff. I like the inventiveness of it. I could use some more despair or a splash of Satan or something to dampen the light, but I appreciate that not all metal has to be sinister and dark. Definitely worth checking out.
Of Crackling Embers and Sorrows Drowned
Brazen Tongue
BRAZEN TONGUE with their debut “Of Crackling Embers and Sorrows Drowned” holds its own amongst the shining asteroids that make up the Melodic Extreme Metal scene but struggles to break out of the collective orbit.
The Law of Augmenting Returns
The Omnific
Perhaps the most striking thing about the album is that prowess aside, the band are also excellent songwriters. The average listener might see the limitation of four strings, but they see a veritable wide-open field, and they explore every inch.
Ecdysis
Unearthly Rites
Primitive Death exploding out of Finland with raw unapologetic agression as they debute there first full length album that showcases the destruction of capitalism on our environment and humanity.
