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
Abominator - The Fire Brethren
November 27, 2025
The amount of times I've compared this album to white noise is weird...
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
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
Destruction Ritual - Providence
November 14, 2025
Destruction Ritual knows how to fill time with intense, long blasts of black metal atmosphere...
review
Bliss Of Flesh - Metempsychosis
November 12, 2025
Blackened death? Deathened black? Whatever it is, it rocks.
review
Bastard Cröss – Crossripper
November 3, 2025
BASTARD CRÖSS comes on like they have a grudge against your eardrums that they need to resolve with insane urgency.
review
Czart – Czarty Polskie
October 27, 2025
CZART’s “Czarty Polskie” is a watershed album. They legitimize the whole AI metal endeavor . . . and if that sounds like sacrilege, remember metalheads have a long tradition of treading heretical paths.
review
Eisregen - Krebskolonie (Reissue)
October 25, 2025
EISREGEN could, would and should have benefitted from an even better and more explosive sound, especially for a reissue. Now it’s just a bit too tame, almost like it has been dulled by too many blows.
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.
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
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
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.
review
Häxär - Teufelskult
October 6, 2025
“Teufelskult” is an impressive third offering from V Noir and his HÄXÄR project, a testimony to the depth of BM.
review
Desaster – Kill All Idols
September 30, 2025
“Kill All Idols” is a smart mixture of Black and Thrash Metal with influences from the early 80s and a few Punk/Hardcore twists
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).
interview
"It's apocalyptic, because sometimes that's exactly what it takes." - Jacob Curwen, All Hell
September 26, 2025
All Hell has been described as a Blackened Thrash band, but they are much more. On October 10, 2025, the trio for Ashville, North Carolina release their fifth full-length album, "Sunsetter," via Terminus Hate City. Gary Hernandez, writer and editor for Metal Temple, caught up with Jacob Curwen (vocals, guitars) to discuss topics ranging from the band's origins to the details of "Sunsetter" to AI in metal.
review
GraveRipper – From Welkin To Tundra
September 22, 2025
“From Welkin To Tundra” offers a smart blend of different styles with Black and Thrash Metal at its core but also including Speed Metal, Hardcore, and Punk elements
review
All Hell – Sunsetter
September 15, 2025
Vicious Blackened Thrash out the Blue Ridge Mountains. Intertwines Thrash, Death, and Black with lethal intent. A must for extreme metal fans.
review
Vintersorg - Vattenkrafternas Spel
September 5, 2025
What Vintersorg always had a good knack for is writing good songs that really fit what he is trying to say. And I can tell you that on “Vattenkrafternas Spel” he has been able to do that once again, giving VINERSORG another strong piece of slab with which they hopefully be able to conquer even more souls than they have until now.
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
King - K
August 27, 2025
Wow, what very good Black/Death Metal release from this Colombian quartet!
review
Blutsauger - Nocturnal Blood Tyrants
August 21, 2025
This is the right way for passing the torch of Black Metal from the past generations for the future ones.
review
Sadistic Goatmessiah - Violence
August 11, 2025
Highly enjoyable this one. The band name and the album cover pretty much say it all. This is unadulterated raw, fundamental Black and Thrash the way that Satan meant it to be.
review
Ancient Torment - Follow the Echo of Curses
August 6, 2025
A very good first coming from this North American Black Metal band.
review
Devilpriest - Where I Am the Chalice, Be Thou the Blood

review
Lord Belial – Unholy Trinity
July 28, 2025
First with "Rapture" and now with "Unholy Trinity," LORD BELIAL offer profane testimony that their dark talents intensified during their absence.
review
Loathfinder - Broken Branches and Torn Roots
July 24, 2025
If you need references of what means Doom Black Metal or Blackened Doom Metal or any other label you can think of on this genre, this very good release is enough.
review
Hexella - The Ancient Gaping Mouth
July 24, 2025
Black Metal + D-beat elements = Black 'n' Roll, and this quartet balances this equation in a great way.
review
Margantha – Blood Moon Sacrifice
July 21, 2025
MARGANTHA, Black Metal trio from Finland and Italy, mix two of my favorite things with their debut EP, “Blood Moon Sacrifice”—Black Metal and horror.
review
Darkside Ritual - Chamber of Deathlessness
July 16, 2025
a ver good mix between Technical Death Metal and Black Metal, but a better sound quality is needed in the future.
review
Azathoth’s Dream - Solitary Forest Necromancy
July 16, 2025
A good Black Metal release, but this North American act needs a better sonority on the next coming.
review
Veljessurma - Haltioissaan
July 10, 2025
This Finnish Black Metal act is really very good, but must work with a better producer next time.
review
Drudensang - Geysterzvvang
July 10, 2025
A good Black Metal act, but that needs a better sonority in the future releases.
review
