Seth – La Morsure Du Christ (Season Of Mist)

On one listen I bought this seventh album by French act Seth, as it had that much impact on me. Of the handful of bands with the Seth moniker this French version is probably the most well-known. However it has… Continue Reading →

Jordfäst – Hädanefter (Nordvis)

This is a Swedish set up with cited influences including Craft, Khold and Watain. This is dense, hypnotic black metal with rich sound textures exhuming multi-layered guitars, although the PR material suggests “icy rock n roll”, a term I must… Continue Reading →

Vokonis – Odyssey (The Sign Records)

Barely two years after releasing the critically acclaimed Grasping Time, earning a respectable score from a sometimes difficult to please yours truly, Vokonis return with their fourth full length.  In Grasping Time the Swedish stoner doom rockers created an album… Continue Reading →

Obsequial Joy – Show My Mercy (Talheim Records)

Just so you know, simply having miserable lyrics does not make you DSBM. Despite the tag on the group’s Facebook, it is an anomaly here. Right, this one person project is from Taiwan it seems, home of the mighty Chthonic… Continue Reading →

Nekromantheon – The Visions of Trimegistos (Indie Recordings)

Climb on the stage, dive off, hit the floor, repeat……………Back in 2012 I stumbled across a rowdy bunch of thrashers by the name of Nekromantheon laying waste to the cramped confines of Oslo’s John Dee, and as well as being… Continue Reading →

Traumatomy – Extirpation Paradigms (Gore House Productions)

One thing I’ll never get bored of is Slam, even in my lowest Slam moments when I thought the whole genre had gone to shit I would still put on Devourment, Kraanium and all the classics that I love. I… Continue Reading →

Ungfell – Es Grauet (Eisenwald)

Seems to be no shortage of stuff being released from Switzerland right now, must be something in the snow and whilst I await the new Borgne to arrive Ungfell have proven a great distraction. They are part of the shadowy… Continue Reading →

Ewig Frost – Ain’t No Saint (Discos Macarras)

Well, I appear to have missed seventeen years of history with this Austrian lot, and also haven’t a clue how to pronounce their name being stupidly monolingual as I am (Earwig Frost???). But promised speed metal punk with all the… Continue Reading →

Fyrnask – VII – Kenoma (Van Records)

German black metal band Fyrnask are releasing their fourth album with “Vii – Keroma”. The album is said to be rooted in ritual ambient and drone, with additional world music, synthesised sounds and more traditional elements. This album is broadly… Continue Reading →

Nattverd – Vandring (Osmose)

I remember these Bergan based blacksters from 2017 debut album ‘Vi vet gud er en løgner’ and at the time of covering said there was not a huge amount known about them other than the fact guitarist Atyr had ties… Continue Reading →

Dreams In Fragments – When Echoes Fade (Boersma Records)

This is actually Dreams In Fragments’ second release – their debut appearing back in 2019…which I was completely unaware of, sorry. However, that does mean that I can enjoy this latest Dark Symphonic Metal release by a relatively new Swiss… Continue Reading →
