Remains – Grind ‘til Death (Spikerot)

Aussie band, Remains came to life in 2019 but their members were all individually established on the local underground metal circuit in bands like Fuck I’m Dead, The Kill and Shallow Grave. “Grind Til Death” is the band’s first full… Continue Reading →

Enchantment – Cold Soul Embrace (Cosmic Key Creations)

Cast your mind back 28 years, were you even born then, have your memories been swept aside by the winds of time? The reason I am asking is because this is when UK doom death act Enchantment released their debut… Continue Reading →

Garden of Worm – Endless Garden (Pariah Child)

Dear reader, kindly indulge me as I take you back to the days of my youth. It’s the eighties, and whilst the airwaves were full of Stock, Aitken and Waterman, and the Rave and Indie scene were soon to give… Continue Reading →

Temple of Worms – Liber De Morbis (Great Dane Records)

French crew Temple of Worms hail from that bastion of all things death metal, that being – of course – um…Lyon. Still, while that region may not be best known for extreme metal, this is that band’s first full length… Continue Reading →

Imperial Triumphant – Spirit of Ecstasy (Century Media)

This is Imperial Triumphant’s fifth album and I confess that till now I didn’t know any of them. Looking at their cv, I was surprised as a varied approach to metal with a later tendency to an avant-garde technical black… Continue Reading →

Mantar – Pain Is Forever and This Is the End (Metal Blade)

As with many of the bands that lay themselves bare on the operating table of criticism, many are completely unknown to me before I wield my blunted, dirty, rusty medical accoutrements in a botched operation of critical prose, that is… Continue Reading →

Prometheus – Aornos (I, Voidhanger)

As if it’s not hot enough already, here we have something else of a fiery nature.  I can’t say I remembered Prometheus despite the fact last album ‘Resonant Echoes from Cosmos of Old’ had been covered by another on these… Continue Reading →

Tombs – Ex Oblivion (Season of Mist)

I do like an E.P. Which is pretty lucky as there seems to be loads of them flying about at the moment – hey Ed you need to start letting us put them in our fave lists of the year [err nope Ed].   What used to… Continue Reading →

Pan/Scan – A Far Distant Corner Of Nothing Special (Cineploit)

Cineploit, the label run by ex-Pungent Stencher Alex has a mission statement of primarily releasing Cinematic Music and Italian Genre Film. Naturally this involves some fantastic and at times strange material, which although united by a common sensibility delivers some… Continue Reading →

Fellowship – The Sabrelight Chronicles (Scarlet Records)

The UK has always been a bit of a tough place to be a Power Metal band. Ironic given that Iron Maiden are cited as one of Power Metal’s main influences, but basically, if you are not actually Iron Maiden,… Continue Reading →

Vonülfsrëich – Ragnarök Rising (Fallen Temple)

This Finnish band has been around for about a decade and previously released only one full length but a raft of EPs and demos, eight and two respectively, as the duo of Yonülf and Fogg play all the instruments on… Continue Reading →

Priest – Body Machine (Cleopatra Records)

Ghost is a name many will be familiar with as the famed hard rock/doom metal band from Linköping Sweden, who have been around for over a decade. Since their 2010 debut record, the band have gone through many personnel changes… Continue Reading →
