German occultist, esoteric black, death crew Khaos Aeon are a new mob to me. The trio behind the band apparently released an album two years ago called Exitus which had a cover of Frozen by Dissection on it. Having listened… Continue Reading →
There is only one depressing thing about this 3 piece Icelandic band’s second release. The band appear so young that it looks like if you added their ages together they would still be younger than me – and I’m 20… Continue Reading →
Pagan metal is a tricky business so its always a surprise that, when so many bands fall so short of what is possible, bands like Gandreid can appear out of nowhere with the light from their blackened torches burning so… Continue Reading →
Doesn’t time fly? It was 2008 when I last laid hands on a Mustasch album, the compilation ‘Lowlife Highlights’, and since then they’ve fired out two new albums, one LP re-recording old tracks, a bunch of singles and EPs, as… Continue Reading →

With cover art featuring a joyously glowing daisy, you’d be forgiven for thinking this album was some kind of hippie chillout extravaganza had it not been for the fact you are currently perusing Ave Noctum. Of course, reality is far… Continue Reading →
One look at the cover and logo style of this French act and most of you would discard this immediately as deathcore but as the saying goes with the book and cover and all that, you’d be wrong like I… Continue Reading →
