Corpsefucking Art – Tomatized (Comatose)

I’m sure we all have those bands where we just can’t understand why they haven’t ever really taken off and one such band for me is Corpsefucking Art. When I first found Brutal Death Metal these guys were always floating… Continue Reading →

Sørgelig – Φθορά (Tragedy Productions)

Sørgelig, another Hellenic act whom the casual observer would not presume to be from the warmer stage of the European black metal amphitheatre.  Nevertheless, said act has released a new studio album that contains enough influence from the band’s homeland… Continue Reading →

Mother Of Millions – Magna Mater (ViciSolum)

It’s no secret how much love I hold for this Athenian prog metal band. They were one of the first bands I covered whilst writing for this site back in 2014 and I have followed their career closely, covering each… Continue Reading →

Bobbie Dazzle – Fandabidozi (Rise Above Records)

If you are a true metal warrior who revels in gloom, for whom only the grimm and kvlt can fill the void in your dark soul and long for fimbulwinter to wipe the sun from the sky, then sorry, the… Continue Reading →

Temple Of Dread – God Of The Godless (Testimony Records)

Temple Of Dread are a German death metal band, around since about 2017 and have been steadily releasing music since 2019 making this their fifth full length. And of course that means they are a completely new name to me…. Continue Reading →

Bewitcher – Spell Shock (Century Media)

Portland’s Black/speed metal purveyors are back with a fourth full length release. Last year’s compilation of the first three demos was a welcomed bonus to those who missed them first time around. I always find this band refreshing and rather… Continue Reading →

Marche Funèbre – After the Storm (Ardua Music)

If any season is the right one for Doom/Death, it has to be autumn, doesn’t it? The sunlight is fading, the skies – to be frank – are right now full of rain clouds and the temperature has dropped. Leaves… Continue Reading →

Maul – In The Jaws of Bereavement (20 Buck Spin)

New school old school death metal. Yes sir/madam this is the kinda stuff that has put the ocean under my motion in recent years. Whether it be Sanguissuggabog or 200 Stab Wounds I am down with the dirty riffs and… Continue Reading →

Eihwar – Viking War Trance (Season of Mist)

Reviewing albums in a half-decent fashion, like a great many things in life, can be anything from the equivalent to finding a long-hidden secret compartment in an impossibly complex desk full of nooks and crannies, to propositions so blunt and… Continue Reading →

Triskelyon – Shattered Elysium (Moribund Records)

Canadian Metal, eh? I’ve got a real soft spot for the Northern metal bands. Whether it be the much-missed Woods of Ypres, the second wave of thrash die-hards Annihilator or Space-bothering skronk-metallers Voivod, they’ve all got something special about them…. Continue Reading →

High Parasite – Forever We Burn (Candlelight)

Sometimes it’s really nice to hear an artist you admire doing something completely different, but still managing to sound familiar enough to actually make you want to listen earnestly. If you’ve read any of my previous reviews, you’ll know I’m… Continue Reading →
