Inbreeding Rednecks sound as though they ought to come from Arkansas, but in fact they’re a group of experienced musicians from Denmark with a passion for old school death metal. This, then, is what we get in copious quantities. Grim… Continue Reading →
Vile, grim, violent and frostbitten black metal from the irradiated wastelands of Lysychansk in the Ukraine here. Of course it might be a lovely place and all that but on typing it into Google I see third hit is all… Continue Reading →
I’m expecting nothing but the best coming from fellow Mancunian death metallers ‘Foetal Juice’. Formed in 2005 they released their first demo ‘Donnakababy’ in 2007and a year later another demo ‘Consume the Consumed’ then an EP in 2009 followed it…. Continue Reading →
Damn! Now that’s a piece of cover art! The very first thing that drew me in to Craven Idol was the beautiful work of Paolo Girardi certainly, but taking into consideration the fact that they’ve hooked up with Dark Descent… Continue Reading →

Clocking the band name and album title I instantly had an idea in my head that this lot were going to be filthy cyber black metal in line with the likes of Aborym and Blacklodge. Of course I was partly… Continue Reading →
Last year’s ‘Warface’ was my first encounter with this band that features Antton Lant (ex-Venom and ex-MPire of Evil), their debut before that did not appear to be as widely advertised so then fast forward to this EP, which will… Continue Reading →
Ah, horror movie samples. Always guaranteed to make me feel my age when I struggle to place them. But of the lovely rich tones reaching out here, I am certain one is The Devil Rides Out, and t’other may be… Continue Reading →
