Warhammer - Total Maniac
May 1, 2025
This insane release is really very good, so let's hope it marks the band's back to its activities.
review
Sijjin - Helljjin Combat
May 1, 2025
A fine Thrash/Death Metal kick in the face, indeed! Hear it!
review
Nordheim - Nordheim
May 1, 2025
A good release of Old School Black Metal is offered by this Italian band.
review
Exterminatus - Echoes from a Distant Star Part 1
May 1, 2025
If you're loking for a new good name on Technical/Groove Death Metal, you must now these Canadians killers.
review
Vortex – Alien Realms
April 30, 2025
Overall, this was an excellent album within the Symphonic Death Metal genre. The production was excellent, and the band didn’t fall into the trap of pushing four identical songs for the listener, but rather they varied the presentations. There is plenty of brutality, no doubt about that, and they could plow through your worst nightmare. But the band chose to do things with taste.
review
Vampyriia – The Melancholic Charm Of The Moon
April 29, 2025
Overall, this was a pleasing album. Although the production could have been better, its raw qualities are common in the genre, and to keep the album within the confines of the past. There were some ghostly moments here, and this one will keep you up at night, with bad dreams.
review
Cadaver – Hymns Of Misanthropy
April 29, 2025
CADAVER deliver an album, which is a mixture of several genres like Black Metal, Death Metal, and Thrash Metal. All is kept together by the overarching progressive sound
review
Blue Ambition – Seduction of the Innocent
April 29, 2025
On the spectrum for AOR, this is on the gentler side…like JOURNEY, but without some of big cinematic moments or crashing crescendos. The songs are quite pleasing as well, although as an album it lacks a big punch.
review
Needless – Premonition
April 29, 2025
Their musicianship is outstanding, as is their timing, and sense of melody in creating a harrowing sound. These things are often hard to combine well. One of the best parts of the album is that they let bassist László Bánfalvi drive himself throughout, and he is animated. The structure of the songs are hardened, bit they use just enough melody to temper them well. This is a new breed of Progressive Death Metal.
review
Embrional - Inherited Tendencies for Self-Destruction
April 28, 2025
Embrional has been around for a while. The band is from Poland, and belongs to […]
review
Reverya – Affliction in Bloom
April 27, 2025
The album feels like stepping through a forgotten portal — the familiar fading behind you, the unknown pulling you deeper in. The compositions are cloaked in a thick atmosphere of mystery, weaving together shimmering guitar lines, ghostly synths, and vocals that feel more like whispered secrets than declarations. Rather than chasing immediacy, the album thrives in lingering spaces, where haunting textures unfurl slowly, almost imperceptibly, until you're completely wrapped in their spell. It's an album that rewards surrender; it asks you not to listen passively but to lose yourself completely in its shadowy labyrinth.
review
Abyssal Vacuum – Abyssal Vacuum
April 27, 2025
“Abyssal Vacuum” is only a debut insomuch as it’s the band’s first full-length. The songwriting and the execution and the production all clearly demonstrate these lads are not new to the game. Highly recommended, this one.
review
Executionist - Sacrament of the Sick
April 26, 2025
EXECUTIONIST has made sure that every song has a tempo you can headbang to without endangering yourself in a way that will result in your head distancing itself from your torso. This doesn’t mean they play slow, but it does mean that it never goes too fast.
review
Krematorium - Sinister Seduction
April 26, 2025
“Sinister Seduction” is not the heaviest Thrash Metal album you will ever encounter, but also not of one the lightest. Also, it might not be the most original album musically, the songs will still be able to enchant you in their own way. And that is what makes “Sinister Seduction” a pleasant album. Thank you KREMATORIUM.
review
Obsidian Fall - Elegy From a Dying World
April 26, 2025
It has to be said, for an album that OBSIDIAN FALL wrote, recorded, produced and released on their own accord, this isn’t bad at all. There is enough depth in the songs to keep it interesting.
review
Matraque – Nature Morte
April 25, 2025
Their brand of Doom is sparkled with psychedelica at times, and I believe I got a full vision of the album from five songs. The final result is that their sound is hopelessly dreadful, in every good sense of those words.
review
Lux Terminus – Cinder
April 24, 2025
“Cinder” is an ascent—a journey through cascading waves of emotion, carried aloft by impeccable musicianship and a sparkling sense of undying hope. There’s a resilience to this album—a refusal to descend into despair. Even in its most subdued passages, there is always movement, always breath, always a soft promise: that dawn will come, that beauty still lingers, that hope is an eternal flame. For me, it delivers one of the most uplifting and compositionally rich musical experiences of the year.
review
The Infernal Deceit - The True Harmful Black
April 24, 2025
Wow, what a lovely Black/Death Metal/Blackened Death Metal release!
review
As Dramatic Homage - Symbolic
April 24, 2025
A very good reissue from this Brazlian Avant-Garde act.
review
Black Anthem - Fragments of Despair
April 24, 2025
Finally, a full-length from this talented band. The album Fragments of Despair will be released […]
review
Benthos – From Nothing
April 23, 2025
The band’s musicianship is off the charts. They end at a 10, and BETHOS takes it to an 11. They are nothing short of wizards navigating more meter shifts and transitions then you can count as well. As I mentioned above, the album isn’t as accessible until several listens, even to a seasoned Progressive music fan. They make you work for it, and as the saying goes, working hard makes it worth it in the end. For me, “From Nothing” is a musician’s Progressive Metal album, and one of the best musical feats of the year so far.
review
Malphas – Extinct
April 22, 2025
Overall, this was a solidly pleasing album that combined traditional Black Metal chaos with some thrashy riffs, and even some surprises. It is pure enough for those FMOBM fans, and also adventurous for those who seek a little more.
review
Phantom - Tyrants Of Wrath
April 22, 2025
According to the information that came with the music PHANTOM are a Speed/Thrash Metal band from Guadalajara, Mexico, formed in 2021 as a project just for fun.
review
Venator – Psychodrome
April 22, 2025
The songs themselves are varying from okay up and until rather good. You don’t expect to hear anything new or life changing, and you won’t, but you also won’t be disappointed by the quality level of the songs that VENATOR are ladling upon our Metal plate.
review
Rückwater - Bored Machine
April 22, 2025
RÜCKWATER are a stoner rock trio band from TAMPERE, FINLAND who have been together since […]
review
Frantic Amber – Death Becomes Her
April 22, 2025
“Death Becomes Her” continues FRANTIC AMBER's journey of darkness, where devastating guitar riffs and blast-beats go hand in hand with doom-laden, epic, and melancholic melodies, featuring even symphonic Death Metal elements
review
Deamonolith - The Monolithic Cult of Death
April 22, 2025
From the Depths of Poland comes an experimental group of Deathgrind that synergized elements of progressive and melodic death through complex time signatures to create a truly chaotic and brutal album.
review
Battle Beast – Circus of Doom, Live in Helsinki 2023
April 21, 2025
“Circus of Doom, Live in Helsinki 2023” is not only a great album to listen to but an incredible performance to watch. For new fans, a great introduction. For existing fans, a reminder of why you fell in love with them in the first place.
review
Marea – Adrift
April 21, 2025
In the end, three songs just weren’t enough to get to know the band as best as I had hoped. The three on the album are a study in contrasts, and I have the feeling there is a lot more about the band that remains a mystery. I will earmark them to a full-length soon to really delve into their music.
review
Kickin Valentina - Raw Traxs B Sides & Bootlegs
April 18, 2025
High octane unapologetic rock n' roll
review
Feversea – Man Under Erasure
April 18, 2025
This was a fascinating album with a lot of layers that the listener can borrow into, and it takes more than one listen to be able to uncover them all. Sometimes, its mysteries are easily solved, while other times, you have to work for them. Take a walk off the path that is familiar to you and delve into “Man Under Erasure.” Its dark mysteries lie within the songs.
review
Alutka – Merok
April 17, 2025
The album is a fragile bridge between what was and what now is. It’s a moment when time feels suspended, and the rhythms of ordinary life are intentionally disrupted to make space for sorrow, reflection, and memory. To mourn is not just to suffer; it's to affirm the significance of what’s been lost. The duration of mourning may vary, but its essence remains the same: it marks the soul's attempt to realign itself in a world permanently altered. When the mourning period ends, symbolically, it may represent a kind of return, to a life that now carries the imprint of grief, woven into the fabric of ongoing existence.
review
Dead Chasm – Spectral Tyranny
April 17, 2025
Overall, this was a decent album but it was hard to get a gauge based on just three songs. All of the elements one might expect from the genre are there, it’s just that the band didn’t do much stretching out from the norm. Purity is one thing, but pushing yourself is another. I would recommend that the band engage in a little experimentation next time to help put some distance between them and others.
review
Amimia – Eigengrau
April 16, 2025
The unnamed war between hope and despair is fought across every measure, every slow-burning crescendo, every fading chord — and despair wins. It is a slow, inevitable tightening of the chest, leaving the listener stranded in the rubble of what might’ve been. It is the slow collapse of the scaffolding you didn’t know was holding you up. It is the sound of hope staying just long enough to remind you of what you're about to lose. When the silence finally arrives, it doesn’t feel peaceful. It feels earned.
review
Telepathy – Transmissions
April 15, 2025
Instrumental albums are always harder for a reviewer to digest, because many people associate with lyrics and vocals. Many instrumental bands have to work harder to draw you into their world, but TELEPATHY don’t need to worry about that with “Transmissions.” As a listener, I feel transported on a journey, to somewhere far away, where much of what I am familiar with doesn’t exist. It’s exploration in the deepest sense of that word.
review
Serpent Rider – The Ichor of Chimaera
April 14, 2025
If NWOTHM is your thing, SERPENT RIDER’s debut album, The Ichor of Chimaera, may be worth a listen.
