review
Undersave – Merged In Abstract Perdition
October 13, 2025
The sound of “Merged In Abstract Perdition” is technical with progressive elements and plenty of twists and turns in tempo and rhythm, all based on a grim melodic framework
review
Enragement – Extinguish All Existence
October 13, 2025
“Extinguish All Existence” is brutal Death Metal at high quality, driven by punishing guitar riffs, blast-beat attacks, and growling vocals coming straight from the abyss
review
Demiurgon - Miasmatic Deathless Chamber
September 5, 2025
And even though the music on “Miasmatic Deathless Chamber” is so encroaching and effective in heaviness and intensity, you never get the feeling that DEMIURGON is overdoing it, is playing above or out of their league. You always have the sensation that they are well within their comfort zone.
review
Retching - Charming The Decomposed
August 4, 2025
Retching have done more then just Charmed The Decomposed with this debut.
review

Be prepared to have your bones stomped flat as this Technical Death Metal release plays!
review
Crypts Of Despair – We Belong In The Grave
March 10, 2025
“We Belong In The Grave” is a fine mixture of brutal Death Metal and Deathcore, driven by punishing guitar riffs and relentless drumming. The album is an excellent blend of grim atmospheres and aggressive pummelling of the listener
review
Osbcureviolence - Refuting the Flesh
January 16, 2025
Death Metal or Death/Black Metal? The name doesn't matter, just hear to this release!
review
Fleshbore - Painted Paradise
January 13, 2025
FLESHBORE
’s “
Painted Paradise
,” is the direction that tech death needs to go in. The music is as potent and enthralling as the beautiful cover art.
review
Misanthropy - The Ever-Crushing Weight of Stagnance
January 13, 2025
Misanthropy’s “The Ever-Crushing Weight of Stagnance,” is a tech/prog death metal album that dances to its own beat to create music that is imaginative and brutal.
review
Shrieking Demons - The Festering Dwellers
January 3, 2025
“
The Festering Dwellers
,” is a stunning debut album. Every song across its 10 track, 40 minute runtime is chock full of memorable moments and offers many reasons to revisit each and every one of them again. 2025 just started and the bar has already been set high for death metal!
review
Hierarchies - Hierarchies
January 3, 2025
If you can live through this tangled everseration put to music,
HIERARCHIES
’ self-titled debut is a banger of an album that is technical without being pretentious and flashy. Recommended.

Justin "Witty City" Wittenmeier's Top 10 albums of 2024
December 11, 2024
For this year, I kept my blog limited to strickly what I have reviewed this year through either Metal Temple or my Doomed For Metal blog. I purposely tried to keep a variety of styles, although there is a little more doom considering that's my favorite genre. I purposely left big, near mainstream bands off the list as I'm here to help bring exposure to the underground.
review
Feral - To Usurp The Thrones
October 14, 2024

review
Devenial Verdict – Blessing Of Despair
October 8, 2024
DEVENIAL VERDICT deliver a very strongalbum. “Blessing Of Despair” is a perfect symbiosis of several Death Metal subgenres, predominantly progressive Death, a doom-laden Death Metal, and some Deathcore elements
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
Evilyn - Mondestrunken
September 23, 2024
EVILYN
’s “
Mondestrunken
,” is a journey into madness that will appeal to anyone who likes music that steps outside the box but also one that even the most ardent fans of death metal will enjoy.
review
Monument Of Misanthropy - Vile Postmortem Irrumatio
September 19, 2024
This is a fine Death Metal/Brutal Death Metal release.
review
Hell Is Other People - Moirae

review
Carnophage - Matter of a Darker Nature
September 5, 2024
This Turkish Technical Death Metal band is really very good. Taste it!
review
Officium Triste - Hortus Venenum
September 2, 2024
OFFICIUM TRISTE
’s “
Hortus Venenum
” is an engaging example of the doom genre’s capacity for highly emotional charged music. It’s as beautiful as it is tragic, as sweltering as it is radiant. Most importantly, it is an album with a lot of care of and detail put into it from a band who shows a clear love for their craft.
review
Cutterred Flesh - Love At First Bite
July 14, 2024
I hope in the future, the band can really grasp these oddball ideas with their heavier side. The band feels like they are on the verge of releasing something truly masterful. Until then, “
Love At First Bite
,” will work just fine.
review
The Last of Lucy - Godform
July 4, 2024
With THE LAST OF LUCY being a concoction of the technical complexities of math metal undertones and paired with the sporadic overtones of aggressive grindcore molded together beautifully to form this pod of dynamic technical death metal. With overtures of progressive chord progressions and smooth jazz insurgence that push the boundaries of their genre, “Godform” is an album you need to listen to.
review
Crawl - Altar of Disgust
May 6, 2024
All in all, this is a hugely urgent album that does a lot in a small amount of time—every second drips with absolute venom. If you like death metal or any music with a lot of energy and an attitude that is 100% against the grain, CRAWL’s “Altar Of Disgust” is the album you need.
review
Malconfort – Humanism
April 24, 2024
It’s hard to even draw a peer comparison to this band, but if I had to, I would say they are on the same planet as IHSAHN at least. But they occupy half of the celestial body as their own, and live in the shadows. The songwriting and musicianship are outstanding. If you are in for something different, something with a lot of character, style, and substance, give “Humanism” your time. It has album of the year potential for sure.
review
Defect Designer - Chitin
March 7, 2024
A good Death Metal release is what is offered by this Russian act.
review
Replicant - Infinite Mortality
February 19, 2024
infinite planes of ever shifting realities. A variety of sickening moods and worried feels are reached when listening to this insane album but the trip is well worth braving this great unknown.
review
Vorga - Beyond The Palest Star
February 19, 2024
With “Beyond The Palest Star,” VORGA have successfully managed to create an album that more focused on the heavier, extreme aspects of their sound yet managed to still expand upon their imaginative, atmo side.
review
Saevus Finis - Facilis Descensus Averno
January 11, 2024
It isn’t just the songwriting, however, that makes this beastial vessel such a tortured experience. The production/mix/mastering is exactly on point as to what this band needs to present such a hellish, nervous, and harrowing atmosphere. The music sounds rushed without actually being rushed…..like it is constantly on the edge of something even more unsettling.
review
Fathomless Ritual – Hymns for the Lesser Gods
December 15, 2023
All of the clichés of Death Metal are present here…deep gutturals, pig squeals, and song titles that don’t make sense. Some purists might like it, and I can appreciate straight Death Metal, but the songs have to have their own identity, and so does the album and the band.
review
Eternal Storm – A Giant Bound to Fall
December 2, 2023
They have the melodic sensibility of INSOMNIUM, and the ardent, unwavering power of AN ABTRACT ILLUSION. Every note, and every refrain is perfectly placed to tantalize the listener with its bewitching charms. The organic force comes from deep within, enveloping the listener to the end of his days.
review
Dwelling Below – Dwelling Below
November 21, 2023
Phillistine, vulgar and diseased. These are three words that come to mind when describing the album. It’s like the secret that you keep buried in your basement. Every day that passes, you grow more and more guilty for what you did, and the disease takes root, and slowly rots you from the inside out until you realize that life has no meaning, and your will to live is gone.
review
Temple Of Scorn - Funeral Altar Epiphanies
November 21, 2023
This is one of the better debuts I’ve heard from a death metal band.
review
Dyssebeia – Garden of Stillborn Idols
November 19, 2023
The album was sterile, as Tech Death can be, but the band also used a good deal of melody interwoven into the complexities, which is pretty unusual. Besides their obvious talent on their instruments, they are also quite adept at their compositional craft.
review
Sepulchral Curse - Abhorrent Dimensions
November 16, 2023
One of the best death metal albums I’ve heard in the second half the year and an absolute banger of an album.
