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
Profane Elegy - Herezjarcha
October 13, 2025
“Herezjarcha” demonstrates a heightened level of songwriting and an impressive agility with shifts from the chaotic to the ordered. With an expanded lineup their trajectory has hit a serious upward inflection.
review
Schreigarm – Mara Comes and Darkness Shall Reign
September 29, 2025
There are parts of “Mara Comes and Darkness Shall Reign” that positively terrify me, and other parts that just soothe the hell out of me (no pun intended).
review
Jord – Emellan Träden
September 2, 2025
With “Emellan Träden,” JORD maintains the momentum and trajectory they established with their 2023 “Tundra.” This might be their best to date.
review
Ofnus - Valediction
February 17, 2025
OFNUS
’ “
Valediction
,” is a fantastic album that balances all the against the grain elements of black metal with ideas that will appeal to people who normally avoid the genre.
review
Begthron - Neu Asen Land
January 31, 2025
If tensorial analysis could be transleate into music, this trio is near to do so.
review
Luring - Malevolent Lycanthrophic Heresy
January 16, 2025
Atmospheric Black Metal in the vein of the Second Wave is what you'll find on this full-length.
review
Myrholt - Blandede Meninger Og Aforismer
December 16, 2024
All in all,
Myrholt
’s “
Blandede Meninger Og Aforismer
,” is a wonderfully balanced album between two different approaches to black metal and effectively combines them together with interesting songs.
review
Djevel - Natt til ende
December 9, 2024
DJEVEL
’s “
Natt til ende
,” is an impressively bleak album that is just as engaging with its atmospheric side. This album will please fans of more straightforward blackened tendencies as well as people who want a little more depth to their black metal.
review
Unholdun - Fœhn
December 8, 2024
All in all, UNHOLDUN’s “Fœhn,” is a solid if unremarkable album. It provides an entertaining 42 minutes of bleak, frozen black metal but after the ride is over, there isn’t much reason for a return trip.
review
Auriferous Flame – The Insurrectionists and the Caretakers
December 2, 2024
For all the Extreme Black Metal true believers out there, I highly recommend this one
review

A fine first release of this Atmospheric Black Metal. If you like the genre, you must hear to it!
review
Panzerfaust - The Sons of Perdition - Chapter IV: To Shadow Zion
November 17, 2024
PANZERFAUST
’s “
The Suns of Perdition - Chapter IV: To Shadow Zion
,” returns the band to the top of their game and a sterling example of what music is capable of doing when a band can fully realize their vision and present that vision effectively to its listeners.
review
Paysage D'Hiver - Die Berge
November 17, 2024
All in all,
PAYSAGE D’ HIVE
R’s “
Die Berge
,” is a fantastic atmospheric black metal band that doesn’t sacrifice any hallmarks of the genre in return for such a long, winding, adventure. Despite its length, this is an engaging album that will provide hours of enjoyment as long as you are patient with it to show you what its made of.
review
Äera - Phantast
October 28, 2024
ÄERA
’s “
Phantast
,” is, all at the same time, a hard hitting, melodic, atmospheric, adventurous, and clever album that will satisfy any fans of the genre that want more out of their black metal than just raw total satan tropes.
review
Arx Atrata - A Reckoning
September 24, 2024
In
"A Reckoning"
,
"ARX ATRATA"
has crafted not just an album but a world unto itself. This is music that demands to be engaged with on a deep level—each listen reveals new layers, new intricacies hidden within the sound. The production is immaculate, allowing each element to shine while maintaining the album’s overarching sense of cohesion and purpose. This is a release that will resonate deeply with fans of atmospheric black metal. It’s a journey, a reckoning, and a blackened experience.
review
Xasthur - Disharmonic Variations
September 17, 2024
”XASTHUR”’s
"Disharmonic Variations"
is a hauntingly hypnotic journey through depressive Black Metal. The album, fully instrumental, weaves dissonant yet captivating melodies, immersing the listener in a world of atmospheric tension. Tracks like
"The Beginning of a New End"
and
"Mirrors Made of Misery"
blend acoustic elements with the ethereal and chaotic, offering moments of meditative reflection amidst the dissonance. Though the production occasionally lacks clarity in its more intricate sections, the album excels in creating a dark, introspective soundscape, cementing it’s place as a master of depressive Black Metal.
review

For those who miss Atmospheric Black Metal of the 90s, this release will satisfy you for sure.
review
Ancient Guard – Nightfall Enthralled
August 12, 2024
“Nightfall Enthroned” by ANCIENT GUARD is a lo-fi, heavily shrouded swath of contemplative Black Metal, both Atmospheric and visceral. A solid debut for the latest Nightwolf project.
review
Granitader - Der Wald zwischen den Welten
June 17, 2024
Ultimately, GRANITADER’s “Der Wald zwischen den Welten,” isn’t what I expected…it’s fun, engaging and catchy but, at the same time, it’s straight up black metal. A very strong debut album that is hopefully a sign of more to come from them.
review

“The Deepening” will leave hoarfrost on your turntable and summon all varieties of unholy entities . . . like existential musings and cosmic fear.
review

February 17, 2024
“Die Falle” is a missive from the epicenter of a hideous conflict, chronicling man’s inhumanity to man.
review
Burial Moon – Burial Moon
February 17, 2024
If BURIAL MOON is being reticent about disclosing who they are, they are at least more forthcoming about their subject matter with song titles that second as actual lyrics.
