Acephalix – Theothanatology (20 Buck Spin)

I have certainly had a glut of top quality old school death metal to review recently plus some I’ve listened to on top as US grim filled death dealers Acephalix unleash their fourth grisly offering five years after they released… Continue Reading →

Devouror – Diabolos Brigade (Listenable)

Long before Wormrot became flagbearers for Singaporean extremity there was another warlord spearheading the campaign. Shyaithan and Impiety should need not introduction and that commanding grizzled warrior is an imposing force in both music and stature. Devouror formed back in… Continue Reading →

Pyra – Pyra (Immortal Frost Productions)

I’m just going to come out the gate with this, it’s bad. This eponymous EP is a big fat failure from new black metal band Pyra. There is extremely little background information about this band, the most I could really… Continue Reading →

Firtan – Marter (AOP Records)

I’ve not given Germany’s Firtan much listening since they formed over a decade ago where they subsequently released a couple of EPs and two full lengths. Their last album ‘Okeanos’ was a fine a release however and catching them in… Continue Reading →

Spellbook – Deadly Charms (Cruz Del Sur)

US proto-metal, 70’s rock and pure metal band Spellbook have their second release on offer. Their debut came out during the pandemic and was well received by yours truly. However, with a second album in the mix, the defining quality… Continue Reading →

Hussar – All Consuming Hunger (I, voidhanger)

Autopsy – Morbidity Triumphant (Peaceville)

Back on the slab and casting musical Y shaped incisions, everyone’s favourite revolting death metal surgeons return with their first full length album since 2015 release ‘Skull Grinder’. There has been one replacement since that outing with Greg Wilkinson the… Continue Reading →

Givre – Destin Messianique (Eisenwald)

“Givre” means frost in French, which gives an immediate clue as to what to expect. The band from the French-Canadian black metal factory have released two previous albums. I don’t know what the longest ever track title is but the… Continue Reading →

Strangle Wire – Shaped by Human Frailty (Grindscene Records)

So, in all the years that I have been reviewing alongside thee editor (which, fact-fans, is probably longer than many of our readers have been alive, in a slightly depressing moment of clarity), I don’t believe that I have ever… Continue Reading →

Ellende – Ellenbogengesellschaft (AOP Records)

A few years ago, Austrian actor Christoph Waltz (Inglourious Basterds, Carnage) visited an American late night show (check YouTube, if you feel like it) and quizzed his host on the meaning of some tricky German words. Some were silly, some… Continue Reading →

King Dude – Death (Ván Records)

TJ Cowgill has made no secret of the fact that King Dude would eventually come to an end. With a career spanning more than a decade, and a discography that boasts two releases for every year of that, he has… Continue Reading →
