Mesentery – Soulfucker (Dr. Music Records)

Formed 30 years ago in Germany, by Marcel Braun, who takes care of vocals, guitar and bass on this album, and drummer Carsten Pickbrenner, they were joined by guitarist Florian Triska. The trio are listed as the current line-up, even… Continue Reading →

GoreSkinCoffin – Release My Suffering (Funeral Goat Records)

If you are ready for a colossal onslaught on your senses, then ‘Release My Suffering’ from California’s GoreSkinCoffin is the next acquisition for you. The release opens with an absolute torrent of abuse and battering, ‘The Plague Fat’ sees chugging… Continue Reading →

Rübezahl – Remnants of Grief and Glory (Deviant Records)

Nine tracks of Alaskan black metal sounds harsh in every way, and this is what Rübezahl bring us here. This is their full album release but they did put out an EP “Tempering of Northern Iron” in 2019. It all… Continue Reading →

Haiku Funeral – Drown Their Moons In Blood (Aesthetic Death)

Music for a ritual, or a ritual set to music? Either of these descriptions could be viable as far as the strange world of Haiku Funeral are concerned and they are far from the easiest outfit to get to grips… Continue Reading →

Ofermod – Mysterium Iniquitatis (Shadow Records)

Once upon a time I would only really care for Black Metal in the winter. Then again when I refer to such instances I was a teenager, living at home, travelling to gigs on my own etc and because of… Continue Reading →

Jim Davies – Prey Later (Armalyte)

After a decade or so behind the scenes producing music for other artists Jim Davies returned to the fold himself with 2020 release Headwars. I reviewed that elsewhere and described it as “fun, footloose and fancy free’ and it was… Continue Reading →

Death From Above – Altered Dimension (Great Dane Records)

Information is rather scant on this relatively new French death metal act, except that from the very brief promo text this could be a sci-fi concept led album based around the loss of humanity which is nothing new of course… Continue Reading →

Hyperdontia – Hideous Entity (Dark Descent)

I’m a big Death Metal fan don’t get me wrong but in recent years I’ve begun to dwindle in interest. I don’t mean that to sound disheartening but I feel like more so than any other review I’ve done in… Continue Reading →

Detest – We Will Get What We Deserve (Emanzipation)

Quite the back history to Denmark’s Detest, as it turns out. I’m a bit of a sucker for Danish metal, particularly bands from the 90’s, and it turns out that Detest formed way back in 91, and were actually making… Continue Reading →

Wombbath – Agma (Transcending Obscurity Records)

Quite possibly one of the most underrated and overlooked death metal bands of the last 30 years, Sweden’s Wombbath may have a moniker conjuring up images of sonic rancidity but they offer so much more than that, indeed their latest… Continue Reading →

Cepheide – Les échappées (LADLO)

Perhaps this is a bit of an “escape” for Parisian Joseph Apsarah. He has shrugged off past nom de plumes and similarly dispensed with past collaborators he has worked with under the Cepheide banner. This project was a trio when… Continue Reading →
