RVH Project - Land Of The Damned
October 30, 2025
“Land Of The Damned” actually is released on the day that this review is published, 30 October 2025. And to say that this is a huge improvement in comparison with the debut album is quite the understatement.
review
Maladie – Symptoms V
October 30, 2025
This was a very strange but impressive album…based in Black Metal, but with the modern day established boundaries of nearly anything goes, it warps and bend the guard rails to the point of almost breaking. Progressive elements abound, and they offer a rich seasoning to the already hearty stew. The five songs offer a lot of diversity, and their musicianship is off the charts.

review
Psychonaut – World Maker
October 29, 2025
This album is a testament to the dual nature of Progressive Metal, where weight and wonder coexist in perfect balance. The tone of the record shifts constantly. Melodies move like moods, shadowed and reflective one moment, luminous and soaring the next. It’s an album of contrasts…brutal, mechanical grooves give way to passages of near-celestial beauty. This is music that weighs on the listener yet uplifts them. It’s heavy not just in tone, but in meaning…the kind of heaviness that stays with you long after the final note fades, reminding you that beauty and burden often share the same space.
review
Blackshape – Prismer I
October 28, 2025
There are mountains out there…valleys…lush forests, and more colors than you through possible. Although the album points out these possibilities with power, weight, melody, and musicianship, it also leaves you to make your own decisions. You know the saying…you can lead a horse to water…
review
Meteora – Broken Mind
October 28, 2025
Broken Mind” may miss the catchiness of typical symphonic Metal releases, but the sound offers well-composed symphonic Metal and symphonic Death Metal tracks for fans who love genre twists
review
Liminal Spirit – Unwell
October 27, 2025
Although I struggle to find an audience for this album, it is noteworthy that the subject matter is strongly reflected in the music, and that is no easy feat. I would characterize this is something for Metal fans who think outside the box and don’t need to be spoon fed the typical Metal sound.
review
Strigiform – Aconite
October 27, 2025
This is the type of Black and Death Metal album that has the listener constantly reaching out to try to grab a hold of it, and that’s what keeps you engaged. It’s like witnessing an impending pile-up crash at high speeds on an interstate, but all cars actually make it through without a scratch. The band maintains a strict sense of control no matter how much chaos they throw at you. It’s dark, aggressive, contentious, and Progressive in nature, and they are fantastic musicians.

review
Tzevaot – The Hermetic Way
October 26, 2025
The album throws a lot your way…although it is Black Metal at its core, there are so many more elements and mediums used in the music, including piano (which he is excellent at) and a thorough understanding of how to best compose a song that is both conventional and experimental at the same time.
review
Tempestuous Fall – The Descent of Mortals Past
October 25, 2025
Overall, this was a nice album to snuggle up with on a cold day, and I found the solemn tones to be oddly comforting. Elements of Doom and Death Metal combine with melody into a recipe that was just so easy to listen to.
review
G.A.E.A. – A Frozen Moment in Time
October 24, 2025
This is an out of the box sound, artist and album. At its core, it’s Extreme Metal with Progressive elements, but there is a lot of eclectic personality in the music as well. This album may find it hard to locate an appropriate audience. But I enjoyed it immensely.
review
Remina – The Silver Sea
October 24, 2025
There’s a strange allure on the album…a curiosity about what exists just beyond the shadows. The listener is left suspended between awe and sorrow, as if standing at the edge of existence, looking into endless darkness and realizing that even the void has its own terrible beauty. It’s an invitation to dwell in the gloom and still feel wonder at its vast, unknowable depths.
interview
"A lot of metal musicians are just nerds who love reading." – Sam Graff, AGENBITE MISERY
October 23, 2025
AGENBITE MISERY hails from New Hampshire. In February 2026, the band will be releasing their debut album, "Remorse of Conscience." The album is an experimental metal interpretation of "Ulysses" by James Joyce. This month Gary Hernandez, writer and editor for Metal Temple, was able to catch up with Sam Graff (guitars, vocals, synth) to discuss the some deeper details about the band, their aspirations, and their upcoming album as well as the curious link between literature and metal.

MAAHES is a Black Metal band from Germany that was formed about 10 years ago. […]
review
Night Attack – Necromancer
October 22, 2025
I have to admit that the opening riff of the EP and the title track “Necromancer” gets your attention right away. It has that quality that has your ears pointing towards the sound and your brain accepting the intensity and almost classic level of musicality.
review
Steelpreacher - Gimme Some Metal
October 22, 2025
STEELPREACHER might not set the world on fire, they are definitely set on providing us a good time with very open and easy listening Metal. And on “Gimme Some Metal” they have succeeded in doing just that. Hats off to them.
review
Hadopelagyal – Haematophoryktos
October 21, 2025
Take a look at the length of the songs…they are nearly identical, and so is the sound. It’s unfortunate, because as I mentioned above, the genre has a lot to offer the fans. I think you can safely skip this album.
review
Dysylumn – Absraction
October 21, 2025
This album sounds like a collision between infernal fire and the void of deep space, where the raw, scorched essence of Black Metal meets the cold, infinite reach of the cosmos. It’s a paradox made audible: visions of Hell twisted into sound, but refracted through the lens of starlight and vacuum. It’s Black Metal that transcends its own boundaries, part ritual, part exploration, as if Hell itself has been launched into orbit. The result is both majestic and terrifying, a soundtrack to oblivion where the line between celestial beauty and absolute ruin no longer exists.

review
Grave Hex – Vermian Death
October 20, 2025
“Vermian Death” is a doom-laden offering of devastating guitar riffs, gruelling basslines, and growls coming straight out from hell
review
Fauna – Ochre & Ash
October 19, 2025
If I think on that album cover and I close my eyes and just let the music take me, I can smell the smoke rolling off the fire, feel the sting of the night frost, sense the ancients in the air.
review
Nihili Locus – Nihil Morte Certium
October 19, 2025
“Nihil Morte Certium” has been 24 years in the making. It documents the trajectory of NIHILI LOCUS as well as the eras of extreme metal which they were not only a part of but helped to shape.
review
Omnivide - Arise
October 18, 2025
There is no doubt in my mind; I really like what OMNIVIDE does on “Arise”. This certainly is Death Metal from start to finish, but the way they have been able io incorporate the Progressive Metal inspirations, rhythms, breaks and parts is nothing less than impressive.
review
Abraham – IDSUNGWÜSSÄ
October 17, 2025
The album crawls from the speakers like a living wound…dark, and filthy. Listening feels less like experiencing music and more like enduring an ordeal…a descent into a pit where pain and madness blur together. It seems chaotic, but it’s a deliberate architecture of horror that transforms suffering into expression. This is not music for comfort or catharsis. It’s music that drags you through filth to remind you what darkness truly feels like, a portrait of anguish painted in noise and decay.
review
Cepheidae Variable – Primordial Reverie
October 17, 2025
This was a solid album to listen to. Without vocals, the artist has to work harder to convey his feelings and emotions in his music, and Ryan did that well. Many of the melodies you can hum or sing along with, and that’s a testament to the instrumental album.
review
Feather Mountain – A Liminal Step
October 16, 2025
This was an excellent album, with a varied approach to each song. The band are consummate musicians, and they hit every nuance and nook and cranny in the music with impeccable timing, The music sometimes took unexpected turns at times, but always kept me engaged. I can’t help think more about how they described the album…”a magical antidote in a world full of chaos,” because that’s how the sound came across for me.
review
Armoured Knight - The Quest For The Sacred Melody
October 16, 2025
“The Quest For The Sacred Melody” has speed and momentum, as the songs are rather good. Yes, this has all been done before, but somehow the musicality of the tunes does give you that edge that makes you listen just that little sharper, that piques your interest whereas others just don’t.
review
Pandemic Outbreak - Torment Beyond Comprehension
October 15, 2025
There can be no bones about that what PANDEMIC OUTBREAK has produced on “Torment Beyond Comprehension” is above reproach. If you don’t get what I’m saying, simply put I can say that this is bloody good indeed!
review
Percussor - Remnants Of Horror: The Final Cut
October 15, 2025
PERCUSSOR plays fast most of the time. And that all sounds fine.
review
Sadistic Force - Morbid Odyssey
October 15, 2025
The name of the band, SADISTIC FORCE, has been chosen wisely, as this is one of the finest forms of torture that you will ever come across within the Metal genres. “Morbid Odyssey” is an amalgamation of five forms of torment that will have you trying to find a way to escape, only to experience the feeling of emptiness when it all ends.
review
Wehmut – III: Frühling
October 15, 2025
This album takes the listener on a journey that is sometimes rocky, and other times calm, and mirrors the seasons of your lives. Torture, anguish, and feeling like you want to jump out of your own skin are common, yet through it all, a string of hope remains threaded into the album. It’s moving, cathartic, and satisfying in the end.
review
Sublime Eyes – IV: The Serpent’s Coil
October 14, 2025
This album was INTENSE. In the annals of the genre, the band chose to take the more pure road of mostly aggressive Death Metal where the guitar harmonies provide the melody, not clean vocals nor keyboards or the like. This is an uncompromising approach to the genre, by a clearly uncompromising band, ready to tackle new territory.
review
Wings of Steel - Winds of Time
October 14, 2025
The term “Let the music do the talking” has never been more apropos than for WINGS OF STEEL and the release of their highly anticipated new album “Winds of Time”, where nostalgic old school metal meets innovative and vibrant new overtones to create a musical euphoria.

Agenbite Misery – Remorse of Conscience
October 13, 2025
An outstanding artifact of Blackened Experimental metal. Highly recommended to that not-so-rare intersection of literature geeks and metalheads.
