Incinerated – The Epitome of Transgression
July 16, 2025
Overall, this was an excellent album. Not all Black and Death Metal has to be so simple, and INCINERATED prove that it can also be complex…that they can write songs well and with a considerate hand, and still pummel you to death with aggression and rage.
review
Patriarchs In Black – Home
July 16, 2025
There are no bad songs on “Home”. PATRIARCHS IN BLACK have been able to keep ascending and get better with every album they do.
review
Professor Emeritus - A Land Long Gone
July 16, 2025
I find it very hard to believe that they are such a young band, because their performance on this album, as well as all the provided riffs, melodies, guitar solos and choruses, sounds so unbelievably fresh that you would think that this is a newly formed band, while in reality being one of the key players in the New Wave of Traditional Heavy Metal
review
The Medea Project - Kharon
July 16, 2025
Musically THE MEDEA PROJECT do just what I was expecting, which is mixing the Doom Metal elements with Sludge Metal parts and then dribbling their Gothic Metal gravy over all of it. And that does give me some very interesting songs and soundscapes that take just under 40 minutes on “Kharon”.
review
Goblinsmoker – The King’s Eternal Throne
July 15, 2025
Overall, you gotta love a band who presents their music in a straightforward fashion, and without the hint of pretention, because you know what you are going to get. That is the case here with “The King’s Eternal Throne.”
review
Thomas Carlsen's Transmission - Clockwork Sky
July 15, 2025
What this album lacks in length, it has the style and substance that come across grandiose and very multi-faceted. This is the perfect case that quality is often better than quantity.
review
Wytch Hazel - V: Lamentations
July 15, 2025
The album feels like a continuation, another chapter in their career and their pathway. It feels like a progression from ''IV: Sacrament'' yet you can see some elements from this album in this new opus. The story has not been finished and WYTCH HAZEL continue bringing their message through their music, transcending themes that are not for everyone yet not overdoing it no matter what.
review
Sea Mosquito – Majestas
July 14, 2025
This is black metal refined, not by restraint, but by vision — a record that fully embraces the genre’s chaotic foundations while elevating its terror through craft, atmosphere, and intention. It understands the genre’s roots in horror and uses that knowledge with purpose, and it knows where to press, how long to hold, and when to whisper. This is the sound of something ancient waking up and remembering us.

review
Fer de Lance - Fires on the Mountainside
July 14, 2025
The sophomore jinx has not hit them at the slightest and they deliver something different, something quite unique for a genre that has been stagnant for years on end.
review
Lorquin’s Admiral - Lorquin’s Admiral
July 14, 2025
LORQUIN’S ADMIRIAL is notable for its musicianship and Dawn Brown’s vocals. There’s some nice chemistry there.
review
Sallow Moth – Mossbane Lantern
July 13, 2025
This album was definitely a collection of out of the box songwriting. Their musicianship is off the charts…somewhere deep in the pacific. Much of the music was razor sharp, cold, even sterile, but there were moments when the album breathed. This was a technical feat that you rarely come across anymore.
review
Amphisbaena – Rift
July 12, 2025
This was a curious album, that felt a bit unfinished for me, and perhaps that is the point. The past and the future make up someone’s life, and that is a difficult, lengthy story to tell. In the end, maybe our lives don’t really amount to much, or at least, not as much as the story itself. I would love to hear more from the band.
review
Thelemite - Powers of Darkness
July 12, 2025
It's a solid combination, and THELEMITE is really a solid band. There's nothing too new in what we're seeing here, but it's damn good music.
review
Creatvre – Toujours Humain
July 10, 2025
“Tourjous Humain” is a searing slab of metal, grinding forward like a rusted machine coming alive in a storm, its engine built on distortion, repetition, and complex tasks. What makes this record more than just a wall of sonic abrasion is the strange humanity that breathes through its fractured surfaces. What’s most striking is how personal this mechanical monstrosity feels. For all its concrete and steel, this is an album about survival, and finding rhythm inside the noise, and letting yourself breathe even when the air is poisoned.
review
Veljessurma - Haltioissaan
July 10, 2025
This Finnish Black Metal act is really very good, but must work with a better producer next time.
review

review
Phantom Fire – Phantom Fire
July 9, 2025
A heavy blues and black metal based album, the thick bass notes are one of the best parts of the album. The band settles on a heavy riff, and just drives it home, like a rocket returning to earth. It isn’t anything overly original, but it comes from the heart, and few bands can rock this much energy in their music.
review
Our North - Everyone For Themselves
July 8, 2025
Sheffield hard hitters, OUR NORTH, have been serving up their enticing brand of Metalcore, fused with Hip Hop and Trap, since their formation in 2019. Channelling everyone from BRING ME THE HORIZON and WHILE SHE SLEEPS to BAD OMENS, OUR NORTH unleash a sound that is soaked in power, venom, diversity, and passion. I just hear LINKIN PARK with the heavier parts using a grunt or scream that is a bit more extreme.
review
Hammer – Trapped
July 8, 2025
But let’s get back to “Trapped”. It is Extreme Metal indeed, because if I would have to try and classify it in any other way I wouldn’t have been able to, even if my life depended on it. Yes, you will get Groove Metal, Death Metal, Punk, Hardcore, Grindcore and Sludge in there somewhere, but none of those fit the bill, so by branding it Extreme Metal the band is talking it easy on us listeners and reporters.
review
Black Magnet – Megamantra
July 8, 2025
Overall, the album seemed to encompass several styles of music, keeping it alive and constantly moving, including Punk, Sludge, Industrial, and Hardcore. I also found the album nearly exactly as advertised…harsh and infectious at the same time. I understand why the songs are on the shorter side, because they are packed full of density. This was a swift kick in the teeth.

review
Killjoy – Dream and Violence
July 7, 2025
Personally, I’d count this as a demo.
review
Alfa Pentatonik – Gamma II
July 7, 2025
This was a solid EP. Through five songs, they band presents a firm weight with the music and vocals, but also some playful electronics. The album is well balanced in that regard. My interest in the band was piqued through five cuts, and I look forward to hearing a long play from here.

July 7, 2025

review
Vader – Humanihility
July 7, 2025
“Humanihility“ is a delivery of Death Metal excellence enriched with plenty of classical Thrash Metal vibes
review
Hemelbestormer – The Radiant Vale
July 5, 2025
This was a positively doomed album that reveled in tones of grey, black, and stank of death…that cancerous smell is something you can never get out of your nostrils. They displayed a life of loneliness, hopelessness, and regret, to which there is no going back.
review
Sigorsped – Everlasting Wisdom of the Ancients
July 2, 2025
This wasn’t a bad album by any means, but too many of the songs just sounded similar, and the band didn’t push themselves any further from the FWOBM bands that started things off.
review

review
Chamber of Mirrors – Tales of Blood
July 2, 2025
If you are a fan of old school, FWOBM inspired Black Metal, this album is for you. It is intense, raging, and uncompromising. For those of us who aren’t rooted in the traditions of the genre however, this album might not be for you.
review
Endless Dismal Moan – Lord of Nightmare
July 1, 2025
It played (and prayed) on the listener’s fears by bringing them to life in front of your eyes, leaving little to the imagination. It’s a black hole…a blood stained room that you can only see with a blacklight…and a face so ugly, it could turn you to stone.
