Right from the off, there’s no denying that this is an album oozing classic Southern Hard Rock, a style so rooted in American Rock history that only a band from Nashville or Texas or a select number of other dusty… Continue Reading →
This sounded fascinating on paper and appeared to be an album that would transport me away from the living room to a different place and time entirely. That is just what was needed over an extended bank holiday when the… Continue Reading →
This Portuguese deathgrind band has been around for about a quarter of a century during which the band has released a handful of full lengths and a smattering of EPs and splits, and I’ll be honest in saying they have… Continue Reading →
The second album by the trio from New York, a year after releasing their début, consisting of brothers Bryce and Reece Maopolski on guitars and bass respectively, but sharing vocal duties with the former taking care of the growls while… Continue Reading →
Seems like I am no less than the 5th writer at this site to cover a Runespell release. The Australian one-man act helmed by Nightwolf certainly seems prolific, having notched up no less than 4 albums since 2017 as well… Continue Reading →

This Canadian death-cult with their debut release may well be unknown to many but when you realise that they have members of Sortilegia, Nuclearhammer as well as players having done live duties with Vermod and Antediluvian, well you are probably… Continue Reading →
We are opened up with a howling wind which is then built upon by hypnotic guitar work before the full band launch into a melodic black metal landscape, all creating a basis on which the vicious and malevolent vocals can… Continue Reading →
I picked up on this Czech band in 2015 with their excellent ‘Denouncing The Holy Throne’ album, a truly hideous atramentous release with disturbing qualities within its dense death metal foundations. This third album continues in a similar vein and… Continue Reading →
