Wall of Palemhor - Sing and Bleed
November 7, 2024
Wall of Palemhor from Parma, Italy does it right, and as such, their new and second full-length album, Sing and Bleed, is one of the best indie records that I’ve heard all year.
review
Traumatomy - Triumph of Enslavement
November 7, 2024
I could write an entire article about this one episode, and a thousand articles just based around my lifelong love of The Simpsons. However, Traumatomy is not The Simpsons, and I most certainly do not love them.
review
Ad Vitam Infernal - Le ballet des anges
November 6, 2024
AD VITAM INFERNAL
'S "
Le ballet des anges
," is a crushing album in many ways with a lot more dynamics and degrees to that crush than a lot of other bands in this style can pull off. This is a year end banger that makes a strong case for how great of a state death metal is in near 2024's demise.
review
Mindless Sinner - Metal Merchants
November 6, 2024
What happens when you blend Swedish power metal with Saxon and Judas Priest? You get Mindless Sinner.
review
BornBroken - Am I Invisible
November 6, 2024
Canadian death metal outfit
BORNBROKEN
returns with a crushing new release in 2024,
"Am I Invisible"
, a 10-track exploration of existential despair, personal strength, and the brutal reality of human existence. Blending their signature aggression with a profound lyrical depth, the album delivers a relentless sonic assault from start to finish. Each song on the album brings a unique perspective on universal themes, drawing the listener into a vortex of introspection and rage.
BORNBROKEN's
blend of technical precision and raw power makes this album a standout in the modern death metal landscape, and the tracks are as memorable for their heavy riffs as they are for their deeply resonant messages.
review
Turbokill – Champion
November 5, 2024
“Champion” is my first encounter with TURBOKILL. And one thing becomes very clear from the very first listen; these guys know how to write and play bloody good riffs. Rather high paced, very intense and drenched with class.
review
Shining – Feberdrömmar
November 5, 2024
New album? Well, that’s not exactly true, as the original version of this album, called “8½: Feberdrömmar I Vaket Tillstånd” is from 2013. It was an in-betweener for the band between albums. Apparently a good one, as it is being rereleased.
review
Salem UK - Outer Limits
November 5, 2024
For those who are not familiar with the music SALEM UK plays, we are talking fast paced Melodic Heavy Metal. Whether you listen to the 2016 album “Dark Days” or anything later than that, it is easy recognisable as SALEM UK. That is not only because of the kind of music that is played, but is also due to the very distinctive and rather high pitched voice of singer Simon Saxby.
review
Retched - The Overlord Messiah
November 5, 2024
RETCHED plays US Metal. If you are prone to the early years of OMEN, you will certainly like the sound as well as the music. If you are a fan of the first albums of MALICE, you will love the music and find it a pity that the sound is lacking a bit of conviction.
review
Blackevil - Praise The Communion Fire For The Unhallowed Sacrament
November 5, 2024
The production of “Praise The Communion Fire For The Unhallowed Sacrament” is bloody good indeed. Crisp and clear where it concerns the Thrash and Heavy Metal parts, and vague and misty when Black Metal is reigning. But you can distinguish all the sounds being played all the time. That in itself is worth listening to this latest offering of BLACKEVIL
review
Morass Skoffin - Descent
November 5, 2024
MORASS SKOFFIN
’s “
Descent
” is a downward spiral definitely worth taking. It is possible for death metal to provide memorable moments without losing any of its intensity and provide an engaging experience—”Descent” is proof of that.
review
Mandroid of Krypton – Cosmic Sarcophagus
November 4, 2024
The band is energetic, but the vocals were the worst part for me. Gabriel doesn’t have a feel for where the melody should take him at times, and the music wasn’t much better. For me, it sounds like the band doesn’t have a firm identity, which normally, would be fine with me. In this case however, it just leaves the album in a bit of limbo if you will.
review
Skor - Mess You Up
November 4, 2024
Almost good Heavy Metal.
review
Synlakross – Mental Parasites
November 4, 2024
SYNLAKROSS deliver their best album so far. “Mental Parasites” is a nine-track journey across genres and styles, but by staying true to their Metalcore and melodic Death Metal routes
review
DGM – Endless
November 2, 2024
I remember receiving an earlier album from DGM as a random assignment, and I also remember how impressed I was with their musicianship and their style, and I remain so today. They aren’t just another Progressive band with AOR tendencies…they are seasoned, experienced musicians and this is yet another strong effort, where musicianship meets songwriting in perfect spades.
review
Bedsore – Dreaming the Strife for Love
November 1, 2024
This was an unusual album in many ways. The only real ode to Death Metal is in the vocals, and some harder elements in the music. The sound was wide open for me, and they made some very strong steps forward into the varied and sometimes odd world of Progressive Metal. I also enjoyed their dark brand of music immensely. This is definitely a band to keep an eye on.

review
Vola – Friend of a Phantom
November 1, 2024
At its core, the album finds a way to bridge the gap between the progressive intensity of Djent and the captivating accessibility of melody, making it a journey where technical prowess meets emotional resonance. The production captures tension beautifully, allowing the guitars to bite and groove while the melodies remain airy, almost ethereal, creating a soundscape that feels textured and dimensional. This combination of heaviness and harmony serves as a perfect example of how force and finesse, in the right hands, can elevate metal into an art form that speaks as much to the heart as it does to the head.
review
Infirmum – From the Depths I Cried
October 31, 2024
INFIRMUM is a Symphonic Extreme Metal band from Finland. Amazingly, they have eight members fueling […]
review
The Mist From The Mountains – Portal – The Gathering of Storms
October 31, 2024
Overall, the musicianship was excellent, but the songwriting, inconsistent. The band seems better at the gentler elements then the straight up aggression and sting of Black Metal. There are some memorable moments on the album, but too much of it blurs together for me.
review
Kvledstimer – Scripture of the Woods
October 31, 2024
While this wasn’t a bad album per se, it didn’t push the boundaries of the genre much. Instead, it stayed try to the FWOBM sounds where the genre started. For that reason, it was just a mediocre album for me.
review
Vosforis – Cosmic Cenotaph
October 31, 2024
For me, this was an exceptional release, marked by a band who is not afraid to explore their own vision, while still staying true to the roots of the genre. The use of keys, guitar solos, and a hardened Industrial edge are the perfect accompaniments to their original, detailed, weighted and uncompromising sound.

review
Arkham Witch - Legions of the Deeper Depths
October 30, 2024
A fine reissue from this UK based Doom Metal act. and beware of the Old Great Ones!
review
Where’s My Bible – KAVE
October 30, 2024
Although the album stays true to many of the original tenants of both Black Metal, and Melodic Death Metal, the seasoned band (at least, they sound like they have been together for years) was able to work in many other elements to both surprise the listener, and delight the listener. Bravo.
review
A Dead Poem – Abstract Existence
October 30, 2024
Overall, this was an excellent album to listen to. MeloDeath and Doom have been combined before, but not quite as well as A DEAD POEM did here. I love the subtle bite of the vocals, and their whispered wrath, as well as the low end, meaty bass notes. Restraint is indeed one of the band’s best qualities.
review
Thermality-The Final Hours
October 30, 2024
A cascade of melodic death tinged in metolcore from Sweden
review
Vomitrot - Emetic Imprecations
October 29, 2024
Sweden’s
Vomitrot
delivers a grotesque symphony with their 2024 release
"Emetic Imprecations"
, an album steeped in the filth and grime of death/doom metal.
Vomitrot
doesn’t just dabble in the macabre; they revel in it, conjuring a deeply visceral experience that bathes the listener in waves of suffocating riffs and vomitous gutturals. This LP is a masterclass in death metal’s most primal instincts, merging the grinding weight of doom with the frenetic aggression of death metal. With six tracks,
"Emetic Imprecations"
leaves a lasting impression as a standout record that refuses to compromise on its disgusting, yet enthralling sound.
review
Demon Head – Through Holes Shine The Stars
October 28, 2024
DEMON HEAD’s “Through Holes Shine The Stars” is like a house that is larger on the inside than it is on the outside, twisting at unexpected angles, plunging to impossible depths—a musical version of Danielewski’s novel, “House of Leaves.”
review
The Spirit - Songs Against Humanity
October 28, 2024
“
Songs Against Humanity
” takes THE SPIRIT to the next level and their next logical steps in the discography. I don’t see any reason why fans of the band would not enjoy this album but it’s accessible enough to grab plenty of new fans too.
