And once again you never know what you’ll get with an Aesthetic Death release but it will be different. And this album by the Finnish Vaina is certainly that. Amusingly their entry on Metal Archives just says black metal. Um…. Continue Reading →
Well this is Aesthetic Death so this EP is two tracks and around 25 minutes of music from this French progressive death/post metal band. Not a name I know but again, sometimes that’s good. Fresh ears. Track one, ‘Fanges’ is… Continue Reading →
A new band, a new name. I ran into them live a short while back at Warhorns Late Winter Camp which was very enjoyable so I snapped at this when it came in. It is effectively their entire set too;… Continue Reading →
I saw recently someone exclaim “Hey this dark ambient is a piece of piss to do…” Joking or not the difference of course is that bad, dull, average may be accessible to anyone with a rudimentary software package and a… Continue Reading →
This is actually the debut by curiously named Catalonia/Barcelona heavy/speed metal band Redshark. They formed in around 2012 and have a couple of EPs behind them but it looks like they had a couple of major line-up upheavals in 2016… Continue Reading →

Friday Greeted once more by the four elder gods (some nutbags claim they are ‘just cooling towers’ but I’ve done my research so wake up sheeple!) it’s Warhorns Late Winter Camp (and yes brave Warhorners do indeed camp in the… Continue Reading →
“Spanish death metal maggots” indeed, hmm? Debut album too. An album of catchy, putrid, crusty death metal? Mmm, putrid crust on a death metal maggot pie; sounds tasty to me. So. A rather cool and atmospheric intro bodes well, something… Continue Reading →
‘Featuring members of Aborted, Solium Fatalis and Necronomichrist,’ this was never going to be a nice ride was it? Yep, knee deep into bludgeoning and brutal death metal I go. And straight in it is with barely time for cackled… Continue Reading →
It’s odd. Blame the plague but I realised when I got this that I hadn’t heard anything from this atmospheric UKBM band for a couple of years and from what I thought was just a diversification from their sound on… Continue Reading →
