review

Wow, what a great Black Metal release, showing the band at its peak!
review
Barathrum - Überkill
November 14, 2024
The Finnish Black Metal legend is back with another killing release!
review
The Spirit - Songs Against Humanity
October 28, 2024
“
Songs Against Humanity
” takes THE SPIRIT to the next level and their next logical steps in the discography. I don’t see any reason why fans of the band would not enjoy this album but it’s accessible enough to grab plenty of new fans too.
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
Eldingar - Lysistrata
October 28, 2024
All in all,
ELDINGAR
’s “
Lysistrata
,” is a step up from their debut, even if the band still struggles with some filler and balance issues. If they can get out of their own way and find more focus within their sound, their next album will probably be something truly special.
review
Miasthenia - Espíritos Rupestres
October 24, 2024
And the Brazilian Black Metal masters created another Black Metal masterpiece! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
review
Vulgaris - Seat of the Fire
October 23, 2024
This band is playing a form of "All-in-One" Metal, and it works ina great way! Hear to it! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
review
Ashtar - The Return of the Frozen Souls
October 21, 2024
ASHTAR is a blackened doom metal band from Switzerland who formed in 2012. Their latest […]
review
Infernal Cult - Necessity of Unreal
October 21, 2024
All in all, INFERNAL CULT’s “Necessity of Unreal,” is a nice surprise so close to the end of the year. It’s familiar enough for fans of the genre to be accepting but unique enough to appeal to a wider audience.
review
Declared Dead - Necrodeist
October 15, 2024
Belgium’s
DECLARED DEAD
presents their 2024 LP
"Necrodeist"
, a collection that aims to blend the ferocity of black, death, and thrash metal into a cohesive whole. With ten years of experience under their belts, one might expect a more sophisticated compositional approach, yet much of this album feels like it’s still in the early stages of exploration. Each track has its merits, but the overall sound often lacks the depth and complexity that would elevate it to standout status.
review
Warlust - Sol Invictus in Umbrae Satanae
October 14, 2024
“Sol Invictus in Umbrae Satanae” is probably WARLUST’s best produced, most refined, most melodic album to date but it still sounds visceral as fuck.
review
Koldbrann - Ingen Skånsel
October 10, 2024
The Old Norwegian Black Metal spirit is alive on this full-length!
review
Slaughter Messiah – Excorcized To None
October 8, 2024
“Excorcized To None” is fast, aggressive, and evil. It combines the best of Thrash, Death, and Black Metal
review
Veilburner - The Duality of Decapitation and Wisdom
October 7, 2024
“The Duality of Decapitation and Wisdom,” is as fresh and unique as it is alien and wild. The twisted compositions only get better as the album is played more and more. This is a trip down a rabbit hole that I'll happily get lost in.
review
Eisregen - Abart
October 3, 2024
This mix between Gothic Rock, Death Metal and Black Metal in a Neue Deutsche Härte is really catching.
review
Moral Putrefaction - Moral Putrefaction
September 30, 2024
All in all,
MORAL PUTREFACTION
’s self-titled debut is very strong and it will be interesting to see what the band comes up with next. Fans of cold-as-a-grave death metal will find much here to enjoy but it’s dynamic enough to align with a lot of different tastes.
review
Sepulchre by the Sea - Seven Chambers
September 30, 2024
While “
Seven Chambers
,” certainly isn’t a bad album, it is one that I just couldn’t find a firm grasp to hold on to. There is plenty of talent here and someone else may enjoy it far more than me. I look forward to their next album, despite my misgivings on this one.
review
Vast Pyre - Vast Pyre
September 30, 2024
VAST PYRE
’s self-titled debut album is an incredible album with so many layers and details that I’m still not sure if I have full absorbed it all yet; I can’t get over how well written it is. Any fan of doom will absolutely need to add this to their collection. Hell, fans of heavy music in general should not mess this hidden gem.
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
Odio Deus - Spiritual Syphilis
September 23, 2024
All in all,
ODIO DEUS
’ “
Spiritual Syphilis
” is a very strong debut. The way the band strives for level of unrelenting extremity without being afraid offer up melodic and atmospheric elements when needed is impressive.
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
The Flight of Sleipnir – Nature’s Cadence
September 16, 2024
The metal underground has more dark corners than you ever imagined and in one of them lurks THE FLIGHT OF SLEIPNER. Their latest album, “Nature’s Cadence,” speaks to your brain and your heart, but ultimately to your wandering metal spirit.

In

delivers a powerful testament to their roots in Old School Thrash Black Metal, weaving together thematic depth and musical intensity in a manner that pays homage to the genre’s early innovators while forging a distinct path forward.
review
Hellpriests - Sermon
September 3, 2024
HELLPRIESTS
debut demo
"Sermon"
is a raw and unapologetic entry into the Black Metal scene, marked by a brutal sound that explores themes of blasphemy, sacrilege, and the darker aspects of human existence. This album establishes
HELLPRIESTS
as a promising new force in Black Metal, blending primal aggression with philosophical depth.
review

Solstitium - Morgoth
August 27, 2024
All in all,
SOLSTITIUM
's “
Morgoth
” is a solid debut album that shows a band with unlimited potential. Their balance between heavy and light elements, while keeping it catchy and emotional, is impressive.
review
Downcross - White Tower
August 26, 2024
All in all Downcross’ “White Tower,” is one hell of a black metal album that has so much going for it through an incredible, enriched sound that doesn't take away anything from the genre's abrasive, underground sound yet the band makes it sound expansive in all the right ways.
review
Amen Corner - Written By The Devil
August 26, 2024
All in all AMEN CORNER’s “Written By The Devil,” is a horror drenched occult extravaganza takes a different path for it’s brand of black metal than a lot of modern bands do. But it's old school worship is crafted with a lot of obvious love for the scene without sounding like a repeating of the past.
