Juliet Ruin - Regime
December 2, 2025
One of the biggest surprises of the year for me is the new Juliet Ruin EP entitled Regime. This […]
review
Maudits – In Situ
December 2, 2025
One of the things that the album does best is create a variety of moods. Some of them are depressing, others are introspective, and still others are somber. The differences are subtle, but each one can make you feel something completely different. That in a nutshell is the album…an offering of songs that you can unwrap and feel for yourself.
review
Monograf - Occultation
December 1, 2025
“Occultation” by MONGRAF kind of blew me away. It suffers only from its brevity. I mean, I could have done with two more tracks or a second disk or full-length A24 movie.
review
Hagzissa – Revelry of a Maltreated Jade
December 1, 2025
“Revelry of a Maltreated Jade” is an enigma of an album. The end effect is an album that demands repeat listens in various states of consciousness.
review
Umulamahri – Learning the Secrets of Acid
December 1, 2025
Thinking man’s Death Metal? Most definitely. For me, the album plays like a post-apocalyptic landscape of death, disease, and ruin. What’s left on earth is empty and desolate, but what scurries under the surface is very much alive. The genre boundaries for Death Metal are so constricting, but UMULAMAHRI forges their own path within the fire-scorched landscape with a clear vision and an unmatched intensity. Eternal Hell awaits the listener.
review
Sweet Freedom - Blind Leading The Blind
November 30, 2025
SWEET FREEDOM? Really? So, this is not RAINBOW, or DEEP PURPLE? It’s not even WHITESNAKE or even MSG? And the singer isn’t JOE LYNN TURNER or his little brother? Are you sure? Well, if you are sure, I’ll go ahead and review this as the debut album by this current version of SWEET FREEDOM.
review
Them - Psychedelic Enigma
November 30, 2025
Musically these guys are clearly very well versed in reading each-others minds and complementing what they do in such a way that it all sounds as coherent as superglue. It makes going through the 56 minutes of playing time that “Psychedelic Enigma” holds rather easy to endure.
review
Ring Van Möbius – Firebrand
November 30, 2025
I can tell you that if you aren’t giving your full attention to the music that is being played, you are in danger of finding it long, winding, very expansive and even boring from time to time. Whilst when you do listen carefully, preferably with your headphones on and your eyes closed, you will be transported into a world of beautiful surroundings and atmospheric soundscapes.
review

November 30, 2025
Hailing from Puerto Rico, Mattador combined the slick, hook-driven sound of bands like Dokken and […]

review
Angelo Perlepes' Mystery - Spelled By Fire
November 29, 2025
What I am listening to is a combination of the music that ALCATRAZZ used to make on their first albums, when YNGWIE MALMSTEEN was the guitarist in question, combined with the debut album of YNGWIE MALMSTEEN’S RISING FORCE and even some GRAHAM BONNET era RAINBOW.
review
Summoning Hellgates – Spear of Conquest
November 28, 2025
Overall, the album was delightfully wicked, and the vocals were every bit as dark and aggressive as the music. If you want to take a fiery joy ride downward into Hell, climb aboard.
review
The Ominous Circle – Cloven Tongues of Fire
November 27, 2025
Overall, their amalgam of Death and Black Metal was indeed both dark and intense. They build a cocoon of shadows with the deftness of a spider crafting a web and just leave it there to ensnare anyone with a morbid curiosity with their death.
review
Abominator - The Fire Brethren
November 27, 2025
The amount of times I've compared this album to white noise is weird...
review
Stråle - Reformation
November 26, 2025
...unpolished polished-ness...
review
Thaumaturgy - Pestilential Hymns
November 25, 2025
The 2025 release of Pestilential Hymns by Thaumaturgy features eight tracks (an ADHD'ers version of 46 minutes) of pure grind-hate-death metal core encased in a hurricane of filth.
review
Spock’s Beard – Archaeoptimist
November 25, 2025
This is one of Progressive Rock’s finest album of the year. Just quirky enough to keep it interesting and intriguing, they explore plenty of unchartered territory on the album but always find their way home. Their musicianship is outstanding, and I did indeed find that the album has a retroactive feeling to it while staying within the modern scene. Magnificent!
review
Malota - Scapegoat
November 24, 2025
They start here and end there, they twist and they parry and they pivot, defying expectations and mocking songwriting norms.
review
Cosmic Reaper – Bleed the Wicked, Drown the Damned
November 24, 2025
COSMIC REAPER has stomped out a trail of infernal psych doom with “Bleed the Wicked, Drown the Damned.”

review
Gloombound – Dreaming Delusion
November 24, 2025
This was a delicious slab of Death and Doom Metal that freely toyed with your emotions. Sometimes, that meant driving an aggressive sound down your throat until you welled with anger, and at other times, you wallowed in despair. They also leave you with just enough hope to come back to the album again and again.
review
Zadism – Under Sadistic Law
November 21, 2025
Unfortunately, the promo came without any bio information, and the band didn’t have an entry […]
review
Mental Maze - Here Goes Nothing
November 20, 2025
The rhythms are widespread, the breaks are plentiful and then intensity is almost claustrophobic. And as MENTAL MAZE doesn’t seem to use any boundaries in how far they can go, it makes that every song on “Here Goes Nothing” has their own identity, whilst the EP as a whole still have the ability to sound very cohesive.
review
Tapeworm Electric – Moonshine
November 20, 2025
I actually like what TAPEWORM ELECTRIC is bringing to the table and that I am going to rate this album accordingly. I can only say that if you love your quality Heavy Rock with female vocals, you can’t really go wrong with the music that is available on “Moonshine”.
review
Havamal – Ages Of The Gods
November 20, 2025
“Ages Of The Gods” is a symphonic melodic Death Metal album, driven by a strong orchestral component, which is a main contributor to the epic melodeath sound. The lead guitar solos are a standout feature of the album
review
Flames – Frequency Of Illusion
November 20, 2025
“Frequency Of Illusion” is a good mixture of Speed and Thrash Metal. The album has a lot of pace and it is well-balanced across and within the tracks
interview
“We didn't have examples; we didn't have any references to follow.” - Monika Chrościelewska, CZART
November 20, 2025
CZART is an experimental metal band hailing from Poland. The concept behind their debut album, “Czarty Polskie,” has been controversial not only for the AI debate but for the many references to Polish demonology. On All Hallows Eve, Gary Hernandez, writer and editor for Metal Temple, caught up with members of CZART to discuss everything from AI to the reasons why metal resonates so much in Poland to whether we are living in the best of times or the worst. Most importantly, they discuss the beloved CZART goat.
review
Jletylishie – Alvorecer De Última Hora
November 19, 2025
This is Black Metal at its most hasty, restless, and breathless, and an album that never stands still, never settles, never lets you fully catch up. The album’s real triumph is how it merges two emotional forces rarely balanced this well: wonder and urgency. The melodic passages make you look upward in awe, while the relentless pace pulls you forward, heart racing, as though you’re chasing a revelation you can almost grasp.
review
Golden Serpent - Lullabies from Hell
November 19, 2025
In this review, I explore the themes and instrumentation presented in this album.
review
Cemetery Moon – Dominion of Ashes
November 19, 2025
Although the band’s attention to the ferocity of Black Metal is noteworthy, many of the songs on the album blurred together too much. They have talent, and the cover art is excellent, but they need to work in more variation into the album, and perhaps take advantage of the wide genre boundaries these days.

review
Hammerfilosofi – Signum
November 18, 2025
Overall, this was indeed a violently alive album, as well as a statement from the band that they are here to subvert you to their will. The intensity never lets up, and it sounds like they are unearthing Hell itself on the album.
review
Age of Ruin-Nothingman
November 18, 2025
Hair metal, thrasher, metal core, and all the beauty wrapped into one. Age of Ruin is setting the bar high for other bands trying to make a name of themselves.
review
Glasgow Kiss - Down in Flames
November 18, 2025
Glasgow Kiss, where have they been my entire life? Apparently writing Down In Flames for our listening pleasure!
review
Morke – To Carry On
November 17, 2025
As far as “To Carry On” goes, a well-written, well-executed album. Recommended for any fan of Atmospheric or Melodic Black Metal.
review
Empire Drowns – Endless Nights
November 17, 2025
Overall, the album has great balance…each instrument like the keys, guitars, bass, vocals, and drums work together in a synergy that is hard to find. This was a terrific album, expertly combining the genres of Doom, Death, and Melo-Death together to create a sound of anguish, pain, even terror at times, but all done with a melodic touch.
