Mike Tramp - Songs Of White Lion Volume III
November 30, 2025
So for the final instalment in this trilogy of “Songs Of White Lion” comes “Volume […]
review
Angelo Perlepes' Mystery - Spelled By Fire
November 29, 2025
What I am listening to is a combination of the music that ALCATRAZZ used to make on their first albums, when YNGWIE MALMSTEEN was the guitarist in question, combined with the debut album of YNGWIE MALMSTEEN’S RISING FORCE and even some GRAHAM BONNET era RAINBOW.
review
Summoning Hellgates – Spear of Conquest
November 28, 2025
Overall, the album was delightfully wicked, and the vocals were every bit as dark and aggressive as the music. If you want to take a fiery joy ride downward into Hell, climb aboard.
review
The Ominous Circle – Cloven Tongues of Fire
November 27, 2025
Overall, their amalgam of Death and Black Metal was indeed both dark and intense. They build a cocoon of shadows with the deftness of a spider crafting a web and just leave it there to ensnare anyone with a morbid curiosity with their death.
review
Abominator - The Fire Brethren
November 27, 2025
The amount of times I've compared this album to white noise is weird...

Thaumaturgy - Pestilential Hymns
November 25, 2025
The 2025 release of Pestilential Hymns by Thaumaturgy features eight tracks (an ADHD'ers version of 46 minutes) of pure grind-hate-death metal core encased in a hurricane of filth.
review
Spock’s Beard – Archaeoptimist
November 25, 2025
This is one of Progressive Rock’s finest album of the year. Just quirky enough to keep it interesting and intriguing, they explore plenty of unchartered territory on the album but always find their way home. Their musicianship is outstanding, and I did indeed find that the album has a retroactive feeling to it while staying within the modern scene. Magnificent!
review
Malota - Scapegoat
November 24, 2025
They start here and end there, they twist and they parry and they pivot, defying expectations and mocking songwriting norms.
review
Cosmic Reaper – Bleed the Wicked, Drown the Damned
November 24, 2025
COSMIC REAPER has stomped out a trail of infernal psych doom with “Bleed the Wicked, Drown the Damned.”

review
Gloombound – Dreaming Delusion
November 24, 2025
This was a delicious slab of Death and Doom Metal that freely toyed with your emotions. Sometimes, that meant driving an aggressive sound down your throat until you welled with anger, and at other times, you wallowed in despair. They also leave you with just enough hope to come back to the album again and again.
review
Zadism – Under Sadistic Law
November 21, 2025
Unfortunately, the promo came without any bio information, and the band didn’t have an entry […]
review
Mental Maze - Here Goes Nothing
November 20, 2025
The rhythms are widespread, the breaks are plentiful and then intensity is almost claustrophobic. And as MENTAL MAZE doesn’t seem to use any boundaries in how far they can go, it makes that every song on “Here Goes Nothing” has their own identity, whilst the EP as a whole still have the ability to sound very cohesive.
review
Tapeworm Electric – Moonshine
November 20, 2025
I actually like what TAPEWORM ELECTRIC is bringing to the table and that I am going to rate this album accordingly. I can only say that if you love your quality Heavy Rock with female vocals, you can’t really go wrong with the music that is available on “Moonshine”.
review
Havamal – Ages Of The Gods
November 20, 2025
“Ages Of The Gods” is a symphonic melodic Death Metal album, driven by a strong orchestral component, which is a main contributor to the epic melodeath sound. The lead guitar solos are a standout feature of the album
review
Flames – Frequency Of Illusion
November 20, 2025
“Frequency Of Illusion” is a good mixture of Speed and Thrash Metal. The album has a lot of pace and it is well-balanced across and within the tracks
interview
“We didn't have examples; we didn't have any references to follow.” - Monika Chrościelewska, CZART
November 20, 2025
CZART is an experimental metal band hailing from Poland. The concept behind their debut album, “Czarty Polskie,” has been controversial not only for the AI debate but for the many references to Polish demonology. On All Hallows Eve, Gary Hernandez, writer and editor for Metal Temple, caught up with members of CZART to discuss everything from AI to the reasons why metal resonates so much in Poland to whether we are living in the best of times or the worst. Most importantly, they discuss the beloved CZART goat.
review
Jletylishie – Alvorecer De Última Hora
November 19, 2025
This is Black Metal at its most hasty, restless, and breathless, and an album that never stands still, never settles, never lets you fully catch up. The album’s real triumph is how it merges two emotional forces rarely balanced this well: wonder and urgency. The melodic passages make you look upward in awe, while the relentless pace pulls you forward, heart racing, as though you’re chasing a revelation you can almost grasp.
review
Golden Serpent - Lullabies from Hell
November 19, 2025
In this review, I explore the themes and instrumentation presented in this album.
review
Cemetery Moon – Dominion of Ashes
November 19, 2025
Although the band’s attention to the ferocity of Black Metal is noteworthy, many of the songs on the album blurred together too much. They have talent, and the cover art is excellent, but they need to work in more variation into the album, and perhaps take advantage of the wide genre boundaries these days.
review
Revocation - New God, New Masters
November 19, 2025
Revocation, “New God, New Masters” (2025) Metal Blades Records is an undeniable textbook framework of […]
review
Hammerfilosofi – Signum
November 18, 2025
Overall, this was indeed a violently alive album, as well as a statement from the band that they are here to subvert you to their will. The intensity never lets up, and it sounds like they are unearthing Hell itself on the album.
review
Age of Ruin-Nothingman
November 18, 2025
Hair metal, thrasher, metal core, and all the beauty wrapped into one. Age of Ruin is setting the bar high for other bands trying to make a name of themselves.
review
Glasgow Kiss - Down in Flames
November 18, 2025
Glasgow Kiss, where have they been my entire life? Apparently writing Down In Flames for our listening pleasure!
review
Morke – To Carry On
November 17, 2025
As far as “To Carry On” goes, a well-written, well-executed album. Recommended for any fan of Atmospheric or Melodic Black Metal.
review
Empire Drowns – Endless Nights
November 17, 2025
Overall, the album has great balance…each instrument like the keys, guitars, bass, vocals, and drums work together in a synergy that is hard to find. This was a terrific album, expertly combining the genres of Doom, Death, and Melo-Death together to create a sound of anguish, pain, even terror at times, but all done with a melodic touch.
review
Tithe - Communion in Anguish
November 17, 2025
Coming from Portland , Oregon, which is a town several atmospheric, and very interesting bands […]
review
Murmur – Red Hill
November 16, 2025
Pain? Yes, you will feel its sharp bite. Anger? Yes, you will feel its fire raging inside of you. The three songs carried a lot of emotion along with them, and like adding salt to a wound, they can easily revive any latent feelings you have tried to push down and lock away. This was an excellent release, and I would love to hear more.
review
Fleshvessel – Obstinacy: Sisyphean Dreams Unfolded
November 14, 2025
Right off the bat, you have to marvel at a composition like the four presented on this album. If nothing else, the band has vision. Twenty years ago, this kind of genre smashing didn’t even exist, but now we hear more and more. The only thing I struggle with is finding enough people out there who might appreciate this varied plate of Extreme Metal. Then again, I know they are out there. The album is more like taking a trip somewhere you have never been and not packing anything with you…you leave what happens from there up to a whim, or to fate, depending on what you believe.
review
Your Inland Empire – Your Inland Empire
November 14, 2025
This album feels like a forgotten relic from the late ’80s that has been carefully excavated, polished, and reimagined with modern sensibilities. Vocals drift between icy detachment and aching melancholy, perfectly suited to the genre’s emotional palette. The songs carry that signature Darkwave introspection, but the Industrial edge gives them a bite that keeps the melancholic haze from ever feeling passive. Altogether, the album bridges synth-soaked memory and modern darkness. It’s retro, it’s current, it’s immersive, and it hits harder than you expect.
review
Redshark – Sudden Impact
November 14, 2025
What immediately becomes clear is that the band have opted to change their dimensions between Heavy Metal, Power Metal and Speed Metal by putting the emphasis on the latter of the three for “Sudden Impact”. It makes this album just a tad more intense, slightly more in your face and certainly unable to ignore when you are listening to it.
review
Ghould – Bludgeoning Simulations
November 14, 2025
Experimental, Post Metal, Industrial…whatever you genre purists label this doesn’t matter. The album is a barren wasteland…a vast clearing of the trees in one of the northern most places on the earth. It’s so cold, there are no animals…nothing lives there…nothing even grows there. It’s like a void that if you dare to enter, you will join its dead.
review
Azketem – Amid
November 13, 2025
This isn’t your typical Black Metal album. Azekn infuses Gothic threads into the album, which is unusual, and his songwriting is not the common frigid aggression that you hear in the genre. The album is nuance, and even melodic at times, in a dark sort of way. Forget what you think you know about Black Metal and step into his world for a gem you won’t often find.
review
Funeral Harvest – Malum in Se
November 13, 2025
This was a haunting album that you could easily relive as a recurring nightmare, and once you open the door and invite it in, it will never leave until you are dead.
review
Chaos Over Cosmos – The Hypercosmic Paradox
November 13, 2025
Few band possess this level of musicianship and skill, and even fewer are able to breathe life into heavily technical compositions. Rather than relying on the riff and the vocals to do most of the talking, the band uses electronics, synth, and ambiance to augment the songs. The result is an album that is as dexterous as it is an absolute joy to listen to.
