Babylon A.D. – Rome Wasn’t Built in a Day
April 29, 2024
For a rock band to stick around more than three decades and still have three original members is quite a rarity in today’s musical landscape, but that’s what BABYLON A.D. have accomplished with their latest release “Rome Wasn’t Built in a Day”.
review
Moon Incarnate – Hymns to the Moon
April 29, 2024
I hear elements of Doom, Sludge, Gothic, and even Black Metal on the album and it is indeed a harrowing affair. Perhaps most impressive is how the band mixes these things up in every song so you never know what is coming next.
review
Acrid Death - Abominable Presence of Light
April 29, 2024
ACRID DEATH are a German band and "Abominable Presence of Light" is their debut full-length […]
review
Drungi – Hamfarir Hugans
April 27, 2024
I am familiar with the harsh nature of the weather in Iceland, as well as the phenomenon that happens to people who don’t get enough sunlight in the winter. Both of these things contribute to the harshness of the music on the album. It is bare bones, no questions asked Metal.
review
The Neptune Power Federation - Goodnight My Children
April 25, 2024
The Neptune Power Federation are an Australian band who's first album “ Mano A Santo” […]
review
Sunburst – Manifesto
April 25, 2024
Obviously, the band has talent. I appreciate the way that they hold back from letting that take over the album though. They do cut loose every now and again, and these little snippets keep the listener engaged and excited. It’s the songwriting that is the main star here. They could have easily written and performed a few 12 minute+ songs, but instead, they have meticulously composed an album with eight outstanding pieces that don’t overstay their welcome.
review
Malconfort – Humanism
April 24, 2024
It’s hard to even draw a peer comparison to this band, but if I had to, I would say they are on the same planet as IHSAHN at least. But they occupy half of the celestial body as their own, and live in the shadows. The songwriting and musicianship are outstanding. If you are in for something different, something with a lot of character, style, and substance, give “Humanism” your time. It has album of the year potential for sure.
review
Theragon - Lumina
April 24, 2024
A very good surprise is this Heavy/Power Metal quintet from Spain with its new EP.
review
Neal Morse - The Restoration - Joseph Part Two
April 24, 2024
Another excellent release of Neal Morse (but you alreadyknew it).
review
Modern Mimes - Roses In Ruins
April 24, 2024
This Modern/Alternative Metal act really gurads some surprises for the fans.
review
Ember Belladonna - The Grove
April 24, 2024
Flutes and Metal isn't a new combination, but the way depicted on this album surely is.
review
Contortion - The Common Thread
April 24, 2024
And after 10 years, this excellent Groove Metal act is back for anoher round!
review
Isospin – Aftermath Chronicles
April 24, 2024
This was a decent album. The light use of symphonic elements augments the music well, and you can tell that the band put a lot of thought into their compositions.
review
Haystack - Doomsday Goes Away
April 24, 2024
Haystack originally formed by Ulf Cederlund in 1994 (Entombed,, Murder Squad, Alpha Safari and Swarm […]
review
Sun Of Nothing - Maze
April 23, 2024
All in all, “Maze” is a nasty album with a sound that is nearly palpable. The extremity of the album is nothing short of impressive but also just as immersive. Any fan of underground music that goes against the grain needs this in their collection.
review
Secreted - Intoxicated Primitive Anthropophagus
April 22, 2024

review
Vandenplas - The Empyrean Equation of the Long Lost Things
April 19, 2024
This was a fantastic album. For me, the best part of the album was listening to the complex compositions and their impeccable musicianship. Although the music is sophisticated, it is also very easy to listen to.
review
Livgone – Almost There
April 19, 2024
The entire album was best at creating suspense, and unleashing it, with murderous potency. Although Elise’s vocals seem innocuous at times, and even beguiling, they will lure you in with charm and a smile, before the poison sets in and takes hold.
review
Druadan Forest – Dismal Spells Part II: The Night Circus
April 18, 2024
This was a smooth and easy album on the ears. Dungeon Synth is not supposed to be overly exciting, but the composer does make the album interesting at least. This is something you could put on while you lose yourself in thought.
review
Sinistrum - Infernal Dawn
April 18, 2024
Do you remember the US Death metal band ABOMINANT who started their career in the […]
review
PsychoWard - Committed
April 17, 2024
Mixing US Metal, Glam metal and Hard Rock elements, this quartet is about to melt Erath's crust!
review
Onslaught Kommand - Visions of Blood and Gore
April 17, 2024
This Chilean quartet with such mix between Old School Death Metal and Grindcore influences can cause heavy 'earquakes' on the fans.
review
Nobody’s Fool - Time
April 17, 2024
WOW, what an excellent opus these Australian Hard Rockers created!
review
Drunk Thrasher - Raining Vomit
April 17, 2024
This reissue of all this Old School Thrash Metalk act is a fine opportunity for the fans of the genre.
review
Announce The Apocalypse – Experience Machine
April 17, 2024
The album wasn’t a total loss, but the formulas used in the compositions meant that it would never get off the ground. The riffs are too simple, use too many open notes, and the shouted vocals don’t add much either.
review
The Lumberjack Feedback – The Stronghold
April 16, 2024
This was a solid album. Instrumentals can be hard to keep the listener’s attention because there are no vocals. But I appreciate the way the band holds a set of weighted accents and just lets the melody peek through every now and again. This kind of restraint allows the more contentious sounds to plow through.
review
Unleash the Archers - Phantoma
April 15, 2024
Keeping its roots and giving a step ahead, the Canadian quintet is up to get to the next level.
review
Machiavellian God – Beyond the Void
April 15, 2024
The balance that the band was able to maintain between heavy, weighted aggression and tender vulnerability was impressive, and the stretched both extremes of the style. The heavier side comes at you with the wrath of a thunderstorm, while the lighter side shines through the black clouds like a beacon of warm light.
review
Messiah – Christus Hypercubus
April 15, 2024
“Christus Hypercubus” is a good mixture of aggressive Death/Thrash Metal with very distinctive and versatile vocals
review
Mind Conflict - Temple of God
April 15, 2024
What we have here is a two-men band (Stefan Andreev on drums and Ivan Izmer […]
review
The Grandmaster - Black Sun
April 15, 2024
In 2021 The Grandmaster hit the melodic metal scene with a collaboration between Jens Ludwig […]
review
Djiin – Mirrors
April 13, 2024
This was one of the most unique albums I have ever heard, and my review summary seems admittedly disjointed. The band has talent, and they know how to compose and ride a melody line. A good deal of the sound, however, was rooted in psychedelics, and other dark things that don’t often come up in conversation. In a way, it reflects the experience that many of us have with life, but we typically put on a smile to wear over it. A mirror reflects the mood that you feel when looking at it.
review
Lights & Motion – Wonder
April 12, 2024
Crafting an uplifting album experience without vocals is indeed a challenging task, yet this album manages to achieve exactly that with remarkable finesse. Through its compositions and melodies, it weaves a tapestry of joy, hope, and inspiration that transcends the need for words. In the end, this album is a testament to the transformative power of music and its ability to uplift, inspire, and unite us all. It's a reminder that sometimes, the most profound messages are conveyed not through speech, but through the universal language of music.
review
sleepmakeswaves – It's Here, But I Have No Names For It
April 12, 2024
For me, the album had a tranquil and uplifting atmosphere, leading to feelings of comfort and rejuvenation, much like a warm breeze on a cool spring day, perfect for moments of relaxation and reflection.
review
Oh Hiroshima – All Things Shining
April 11, 2024
This album was mysterious for me, and, as any good album does, leaves the listener with more questions than answers. It stimulates intellectual curiosity and encourages active engagement with the music and lyrics, and invites repeated listens to uncover new layers of meaning with each encounter. Its thematic depth leaves room for individual interpretation.
