Warlust - Sol Invictus in Umbrae Satanae
October 14, 2024
“Sol Invictus in Umbrae Satanae” is probably WARLUST’s best produced, most refined, most melodic album to date but it still sounds visceral as fuck.
review
Wizards Must Die – L'Or des Fous
October 14, 2024
This was a bit of a puzzling album, getting to peel back all of the layers and looking for answers. It was also a bit difficult to categorize, but we will leave that up to others. Taking the music at face value, it wasn’t overly complicated, and there weren’t obvious answers, begging the question, what did you get out of the album?
review
Struck Down - Kingdom Of Glass
October 14, 2024
One drop at a time.
review
Qaalm – Grave Impressions of an Unbroken Arc
October 13, 2024
This was an outstanding album that successfully melded several genres of Metal, including Doom, Sludge, Post, Melodic, and even Progressive, and the way that the band combined these things made a stew with a variety of seasonings. One bite, and you can taste the depth that the band put into the recipe. It’s three parts angry, two parts hopeless, and one part melancholy, all wrapped up tightly with a bow.
review
Doedsmaghird – Omniverse Consciousness
October 12, 2024
It's a twisted abomination of sound—blackened at the roots but sprawling into nightmarish hybrids. Drums blast away relentlessly, but underneath, synths ooze like an alien presence, shifting the mood from raw aggression to something more unsettling and unnatural. The use of orchestration adds a perverse grandeur to the violence, like a symphony of decay. The result is an album that transcends black metal tropes, turning into an abomination of genres, styles, and emotions, both monstrous and mesmerizing.
review
Souls of Ambience – A 1000 Tears
October 11, 2024
This album was excellent. The band showed strong songwriting skills and musicianship within a concept album’s confines, and enough of their personality to shine through. This would appeal to any Progressive Rock fan or just anyone who appreciates substance in their music.
review
Spectral Wound – Songs of Blood and Mire
October 11, 2024
This wasn’t a bad album per se, but within the annals of Black Metal, artists have a wide variety of boundaries to take advantage of. In this case, the band just wanted to stick with the FWOBM sound, and that’s a shame.
review
Serotonin – Motiv
October 11, 2024
This wasn’t a bad album by any stretch of the imagination, and I love the subject matter and the band’s contention that people are basically stupid, but the music just wasn’t overly exciting, and they took the safe way out by sticking for formulas that have been used too many times in the past.
review
Sijjeel – Affiliation of Horrid Containment
October 11, 2024
There is a rule to remember for those that write and record and produce metal, and that is… just because you’re all making the same noise, doesn’t mean what you’re making is music.
review
Chaos Invocation – Wherever We Roam…
October 10, 2024
This was an uncompromising album in the sense that the band has a core value and sticks with it from start to finish. There was some variation along the way, but much of the path remained straight…straight through your flesh, and plunging you into the deep abyss from where the sounds of torture originated.
review
Numento - The Antimatter Fantasy
October 10, 2024

Besra – Equilibrium
October 10, 2024
The four songs here had a lot of depth, but coerced me into taking the path into the dark that I was warned not to follow. It led me to a brook, where the water shined in the bring moonlight. But the more I looked around, it became obvious that this was a place of deep pain, and a place where you can unburden that pain for a while. When you leave, it returns, beguiling you to remain there forever alone.

Necronomicon Ex Mortis - You and Your Friends Are Dead: Game Over
October 8, 2024
NECRONOMICON EX MORTIS
’
"You And Your Friends Are Dead: Game Over"
is a horror-fueled metal EP that skillfully blends aggressive riffs, vivid storytelling, and grim atmospheres. From the apocalyptic foresight of
"The Dead Zone"
to the chaotic resurrection in
"Jason Lives"
, each track dives deep into iconic horror themes with intensity and creativity. The band balances brutal instrumentation with dark humor, particularly in
"Leprechaun
's" grotesque fun, while
"My Bloody Valentine"
and
"In The Mouth Of Madness"
plunge into psychological and cosmic terror. Paired with cover art depicting a carnivorous plant feeding on industrial pollution, the EP reflects humanity’s self-inflicted doom, thriving on the decay of destruction. It's a solid, enjoyable release for fans of horror and heavy metal alike.

Slaughter Messiah – Excorcized To None
October 8, 2024
“Excorcized To None” is fast, aggressive, and evil. It combines the best of Thrash, Death, and Black Metal
review
Veilburner - The Duality of Decapitation and Wisdom
October 7, 2024
“The Duality of Decapitation and Wisdom,” is as fresh and unique as it is alien and wild. The twisted compositions only get better as the album is played more and more. This is a trip down a rabbit hole that I'll happily get lost in.

October 7, 2024

review
Winterfylleth – The Imperious Horizon
October 6, 2024
The mix of instruments on the album was nearly perfect, pairing guitars with keyboards and others. There was a familiar sound here, but also one that forced you out of your comfort zone a bit. More of the latter would have been welcomed, but it is still and excellent album done at the hands of experienced musicians.

review
Virgin Steele - Guardians Of The Flame (Reissue)
October 5, 2024
I have also reviewed their debut album “Virgin Steele I”, and the leap forward from that one is remarkable. Not that they have improved so much in the quality department, as that was already okay on that one, but VIRGIN STEELE has been able to filter down all the angels they were aiming for on that one and brought it down to a few.

review
Servant – Death Devil Magick
October 4, 2024
This was a fantastic, multi-dimensional album that utilized many of the traditional elements of the genre along with incorporating a fresh, modern edge to Black Metal. As I mentioned above, besides their strong musicianship, the best thing that the band does on the album is controlling the nuclear bomb that is about to explode in their hands and setting its course to their will.
review
Kalandra – A Frame of Mind
October 4, 2024
This was quite a moving listening experience. The album ebbed and flowed, a match with the themes mentioned in the beginning, and it gave me peace even though some of the themes were disruptive. My frame of mind on the album was one of deep contemplation.
review
Orme – No Serpents, No Saviors
October 4, 2024
The album resonate with a deep, brooding energy, gradually intensifying as if ancient forces are coming to life. Riffs build like tectonic shifts, heavy and deliberate, while the percussion thunders in the background, echoing the footsteps of something massive and unstoppable rising from the depths. As the album progresses, the intensity grows, reaching crescendos that feel like the giant shaking off centuries of silence. It’s a sound both majestic and ominous, one that lingers, leaving listeners in awe of the sheer scope and magnitude of this sonic journey. It’s the sound of something colossal stirring back to life, a testament to forces that are timeless and primal.
review
Hammerfilosofi – Solus (Igne Natura Renovator Integra)
October 4, 2024
This album was promising at times, and puzzling at others. There were some good songs, and some inconsistent ones a well. It just failed to leave an indelible mark on me.
