Draculum – Poems of Spellcraft
December 22, 2025
Each of the six tracks is a bit of mystery, beckoning the listener to unravel them. Signposted by year, the titles hint at a possible unified narrative if not by characters than at least by theme.
review
Abysmal Descent – Dismal Thoughts
December 22, 2025
“Dismal Thoughts” goes beyond traditional Death Metal; it smartly blends Death Metal with Doom Metal and progressive elements
review
Katakomba – The Second Death
December 22, 2025
“The Second Death” delivers traditional Swedish Death Metal sound with modern elements. The album has pace, rawness, aggression, devastating chainsaw guitars, and a blood-freezing melodic framework
review
Archaic Thorn - Malicious Spears
December 20, 2025
Ahh. Hand-drawn cover art. It's nice to see.
review
Kaatayra – Só Quem Viu o Relâmpago à Sua Direita Sabe
December 19, 2025
After two listens, I am still not entirely sure what I think about the album. The band leaves the door open for mystery, and even your own imagination. Harsh vocals contrast with traditional Brazilian folk music in a way that just keeps you on your toes throughout the experience, and if nothing else, its mysteries are buried deep within.
review
Monachopsis - The Carcass Choir
December 18, 2025
"A techdeathmess from the midlands," you say...
review
Mors Verum – Canvas
December 17, 2025
When I hear the term Death Metal, I get images of rotting flesh, destruction and death, and even guttural noise. But here, the music was alive…moving, breathing, never standing still. It’s ardent enough for the common fan, but also offers a kaleidoscope of other sounds for those of us looking for something different.
review
Sanctvs – De l'Abîme au Plérôme
December 16, 2025
Overall, this was a solid album to listen to. It didn’t necessarily offer anything new to the genre, but you can hear the fire and the passion behind the compositions, as well as the artist’s skills.
review
Forever Autumn – The Lamentations
December 16, 2025
“The Lamentations” is Autumn Ni Dubhghaill’s most stirring release to date, and not just in the emotional or sentimental sense but in a raw and visceral sense as well.
review
Moon Wisdom – Let Water Flow
December 15, 2025
Overall, this was a decent listening experience, but I just didn’t get a firm enough handle on their sound through 30 minutes of runtime. I also didn’t hear much in the way of Punk or even Gaze sounds. Had they not mentioned that, I probably wouldn’t be as disappointed as I am.

review
Blossoms Fall - La Alma
December 15, 2025
It is all just too neat, too controlled. I never get the feeling that the band is throwing everything they have at me, that they are holding back for future references and/or releases. If they are, that’s their bad, because that means that they are forgetting that you can only make a good first impression once.
review
Paganizer - As Mankind Rots
December 15, 2025
Because there is no two ways about it; every song that PAGANIZER plays on “As Mankind Rots” hits the spot just right. In just under 40 minutes time the band has made sure that the songs they write have that underlying tension that comers with the territory, whilst also allowing the listener to adapt to every tune with a great deal of ease.

review
Master’s Hammer – Maldorör Disco
December 12, 2025
This was an excellent listening experience for me. As a teenager in the 80’s, its lush electronic sound took me back to some of the music I enjoyed at that time, and keyboards are always a welcomed instrument for me. Here, you will find plenty, combined with gritty riffs and vocals, and the songs were downright catchy.
review
The Skelters - Con Man's Chronicles
December 12, 2025
This is Hard Rock at best, but it is the variety that will transport you back to the seventies in sound as well as atmosphere and feel. That can be a good thing nowadays, as it gives the whole listening experience a much more analogue and therefore honest approach. In that respect THE SKELTERS got everything just right.
review
Storming – Celestial Clear Moonlit
December 11, 2025
The information in the bio is indeed what you will find on the album. The hypnotic gaze of many of the songs does create a shimmering effect, but the production is so raw it takes away from my enjoyment. It does have peaks of intrigue, but four of the five songs also have a similar sound that is hard to distinguish.
review
Victimarum – Seitsemän soihdun valossa
December 10, 2025
Overall, this was an album that just burned from start to finish, and “melancholy misery” is an apt word for the collection of songs. A little more diversity could have taken the album further, but I admire their commitment to their sound.
review
Human Fortress – Stronghold
December 10, 2025
Musically there is no way around the way HUMAN FORTRESS plays their music. this is Epic, this is Power Metal, and these guys are very well-equipped to bend what they make into a shape that fits them down to a T. There isn’t a song that doesn’t fit, there is no note that has been put wrong, there are no mistakes or mishaps on “Stronghold”.
review
Malignant Aura – Where All of Worth Comes to Wither
December 10, 2025
The title of the album is very fitting to the songs. Besides a healthy amount of dissonance and aggression, the songs dive deep into the earth, seeking refuge in a cold, wet cave where no sunlight even dares to enter.

review
Goatfather – House of the Rising Smoke
December 9, 2025
A smoking pillar of fuzz-infused and psych-inspired tunage.
review
Fimbul Winter – What Once Was
December 8, 2025
“What Once Was” is dark, epic, and melancholic. It offers excellent guitar work, crushing basslines, and chilling melodies, all kept together very well by versatile vocals
review
Abysmal Grief – Taetra Philosophia
December 7, 2025
Creepy at times, this is a Doom Metal album for old school fans of the genre. Although I don’t know it, I get the feeling that the band has a cult following, because of how long they have been around, and their sound hasn’t changed much. For me, it was just a mediocre listening experience that just didn’t offer any surprises.

review
Vauruvã – Mar Da Deriva
December 5, 2025
If the album makes you look for answers, it did its job properly. But, there are no answers to be found. Instead, the deep-pocket sound deals with possibilities that almost seem endless, laying out a myriad of paths one could follow and allowing each person to make that decision for themselves.
review
Tailgunner - Midnight Blitz (single)
December 4, 2025
When heavy metal icon K K Downing produces your latest album and loudly proclaims “They personify everything that is heavy metal” the music world takes notice.
review
Greystone Canyon - Something Borrowed…Something New
December 4, 2025
The name of the album is quite fitting. “Something Borrowed…Something New” relates to the fact that half of the songs are covers and the other half new songs by the band themselves. GREYSTONE CANYON has released two albums before this one, and the 2024 one called “Iron & Oak” got a perfect rating from my colleague “Metal Mark” Garcia. He rightfully wrote that these Aussie have a knack to sound like they belong in the seventies. And that they also really know how to play and make songs sound good.
review
Mezzrow - Embrace The Awakening
December 4, 2025
“Embrace The Awakening” has been produced at a very good and transparent level, which allows you to hear very instrument in detail. It also has been given enough punch to make sure that all the songs that MEZZROW has put on this album has the right amount of energy, excitement and power.
review
Soulfly - Chama
December 4, 2025
Gone is the jumping up and down from the early years, only to be substituted by a much more Industrial Metal vibe, whilst keeping a little bit of Groove Metal vibe, but also a little bit of Thrash Metal atmosphere in there. It makes for interesting listening, as to me this sounds like Max Cavalera is trying to recreate the effect that NAILBOMB had some thirty years ago.
review
The Acacia Strain - You Are Safe From God Here
December 4, 2025
“You Are Safe From God Here” is over 38 minutes of panzer-like tank-worthy deafening and explosively deadly Deathcore. Because if one thing becomes clear, it is that the band have only gotten Heavier, a lot more menacing and almost lethal in their approach to how they write and play songs. There is only one way to go; to be as destructive and devastating as is humanly possible.
review
Kill Ritual - In My Head
December 2, 2025
Musically the band have evolved in such a way that it will be easier for new admirers to step in, whilst those who already liked what KILL RITUAL did so far will be able to continue their admiration. “In My Head” is that good, yes.
review
Blindfolded and Led to the Woods – The Hardest Thing About Being God Is That No One Believes Me
December 2, 2025
To summarize the album, in addition to the chainsaw intensity and its bruising, take no prisoners nature, I love the shifting pacing. It can take off like an errant rocket or slow to a dangerous crawl. The latter moments are most frightening, because they give you more time to think and to consider what lies in front of you. Even in the best of circumstances, love can sting like a scorpion. Maybe all of us have a little serial killer locked up inside us somewhere.
