Slaughtersun - Black Marrow
February 3, 2025
Welcome to the world of dissonance, where violins meet double bass drums, and prog meets extreme metal.
review
Lacuna Coil – Sleepless Empire
February 2, 2025
Commemorating the day of love, LACUNA COIL releases their 11th full-length studio album, Sleepless Empire, on February 14, 2025. It’s filled with anger and rage and is all about fucked up relationships and alienation.
review
Boreal Grave – I Am Your Bane
February 2, 2025
This was a solid album, in a genre that has tight boundaries. The band managed to keep the sound within the boundaries but at the same time, took a few chances every now and then to keep the listener on their toes.
review
Marrowomb – Phisenomie
February 1, 2025
The album has a very heavy and deep bottom end, and the production matches it. The combination of two distinct extreme Metal styles is very well done, as they meld together like meat and broth in a stew, and what you get is a thick, bitter, but well-seasoned bowl of madness.
review
Ringlorn- Tales Of War And Magic
February 1, 2025
New Epic Metal from Greece.
review
Aedes - Odius Imprecation
January 31, 2025
A very good first coming of this promising Finnish Death Metal quintet.

review
Ritualmord – This is Not Lifelover
January 29, 2025
For me, the album cover tells a lot about what kind of music might be waiting for the listener. It’s a picture of a (presumably) dead woman, covered in blood, amidst a soft canopy of grass, and flowers. Maybe it symbolizes the circle of life, because our dead bodies can create rich soil for flowers to grow. Or, maybe, it symbolizes the yin and yang of good and evil, as each requires the other. In the end, it’s something that each of us might interpret differently, and that is the beauty of music.
review
Schädlich & Söhne – Zweckpessimismus
January 29, 2025
What I always have found, and which is definitely accentuated and confirmed on “Zweckpessimismus” is that the German language surely is the best one to select when you wish to get across your messages across in a very dark and menacing way.
review
Magic Kingdom - Blaze Of Rage
January 29, 2025
Let me start by saying that Epic Symphonic Power Metal can not function without a good sound. Well, that part is covered nicely, as the production is top notch. Mr. Dushan Petrocci can be proud of what he has achieved on this MAGIC KINGDOM record.
review
Diamonds Hadder - Beyond The Breakers
January 29, 2025
DIAMONDS HADDER are very much influenced by DIO-era RAINBOW, by the DIO-era BLACK SABBATH and the first few DIO albums. Do you see a pattern emerging here?
review
Déhà – Nethermost & Absolute Comfort
January 29, 2025
This was indeed a sick album, sick with the blackness of a terminal disease. The length of the songs drew a parallel to someone’s pathetic life, when in the end, they loved no one, and accomplished nothing. I think many of us can relate to that hole.
review
March of Scylla – Andromeda
January 28, 2025
From Bandcamp, “MARCH OF SCYLLA is a dark Post-Metal project that explores all the afflictions […]
review
Sarkasm – Carnival of Atrocities
January 27, 2025
Hopefully the third time around is the charm for SARKASM. With their twin attacks of As Empires Decay and Carnival of Atrocities, they seem to be on a solid trajectory.
review
Gutless - High Impact Violence
January 27, 2025
Visceral, gore, violent and relentless. Death metal in the finest of its forms.
review
Ass to Mouth - Enemy of the Human Race
January 27, 2025
Disgust, misanthropy, mayhem, dystopia; welcome to grindcore
interview
“To quote Step Brothers, it just feels good 'to make beautiful music for a sad world.'" - Sami Wolf, Moon Wizard
January 26, 2025
Moon Wizard is a Stoner/Doom Metal out of Salt Lake City, Utah. After three independent albums the band caught the attention of Hammerheart Records who promptly signed the band and re-released their third album, "Sirens," in January 2025 to wide acclaim from Brazil to Sweden to Australia. Gary Hernandez, writer and editor for Metal Temple, recently caught up with guitarist Aaron Brancheau and vocalist Sami Wolf to discuss the band’s origins, their evolution, and future plans.
review
Decline of the I – Wilheim
January 26, 2025
This album was a crushing listening experience for me. They paint a black landscape of nothingness, and existential dread, combined with vibrant red colors of the entirely of the weight of painful decisions thrust on your shoulders at the same time. Do not look for hope buried under the rubble, for there is none.
review
Häxkapell – Om jordens blod och urgravens grepp
January 25, 2025
The sting of black licorice with sweet undertones.
review
The Cimmerian – An Age Undreamed Of…
January 24, 2025
This album was as much of a story as it was music, and the factored the themes mentioned above into their compositions. Their recipe of Doom, Sludge, Death and Black Metal results in a stew that is dark, thick, hearty, and even a little bitter.
review
Mantar – Post Apocalyptic Depression
January 23, 2025
Although they really aren’t presenting anything new with the style of the album, it’s pure blood, sweat and tears, gritty Rock N Roll, with a touch of Black Metal, and they present it confidently and with a big middle finger extended to anyone and everyone. The production is perfect for their brand as well.
review
The Night Flight Orchestra - Give Us the Moon
January 23, 2025
Even not as good as some past releases of the band, it's still an excellent album!
review
Manntra - Titans
January 23, 2025
This Folk Metal release can be pointing to new musical possibilities for the genre. Hear to it!
review
Stenched - Purulence Gushing from the Coffin
January 23, 2025
A good Death Metal release of a band that can do way better than this.
review
AnomiC - Opacity
January 23, 2025
A surprising Thrash/Death Metal release from this German act!
review
Sleepbomb – The Sleeping Dead
January 23, 2025
From their EPK, “SLEEPBOMBis a San Francisco-based psychedelic doom project focused on full, original scores […]
review
The Machinist – Contempt For Life
January 22, 2025
This was a crushingly heavy album that took no prisoners. The pacing was often frantic, and the sheer amount of notes that they band was able to squeeze into the compositions was amazing. At times, some of the chaos was broken with melodies, but they were often short lived, and blotted out by the weight of the album. The musicianship here was nearly impeccable as well.
review
Time Rift - In Flight
January 21, 2025
Good old Hard Rock with a psychedelic touch.
review
AntiMozdeBeast – The Alien Machine
January 21, 2025
This was a very personal album seen through the lens of one composer, and it challenges the very notion of what music even is. Although some of it is more like background ambiance, it did make me feel a peculiar way, which although is hard to describe, is the very point of music in the first place.
review
Hesperia - Fra Li Monti Sibillini
January 21, 2025
this album definitely reaches too far and too often for ideas that don't quite meld into the songs very well. I'm going to give it a four but I could understand anyone giving it an extra point or two either way but it's just not working for me.
review
Cerebral Hemorrhage - Exempting Reality
January 20, 2025
Cerebral Hemorrhage - Exempting Reality, a force to be reckoned with and a forgotten classic coming back to haunt and daunt the non believers.
review
Primal Code - Opaque Fixation
January 20, 2025
Primal Code - Opaque Fixation, a relentless beating of stomping drums and a doomy vibe to raise hell in the pit.
review
Reckless Manslaughter - Sinking Into Filth
January 20, 2025
A disgusting display of what German death has to offer
review
Medusian – Toymaker
January 20, 2025
“Toymaker” is symphonic Death Metal with melodic Metal elements. The sound is epic with grim melodies and prominent orchestral arrangements
review
Mystery Moon - Shine
January 20, 2025
Kaiserslautern based guitarist and songwriter Markus Pfeffer (Lazurus Dream & Atlantis Drive) actually only wanted […]
review
Seven Kingdoms – The Square
January 19, 2025
The Square starts off as a ripper, loses some traction midway, gets back on course, and then runs into a wall of 80’s sentimentality. To be fair, four of the five tracks are very, very good, pretty much making the EP well worth the price of admittance.
