Audn are comparable to a toddler amongst the Scandinavian black metal family, being spawned back in 2010, they are now unleashing their third opus onto the world, and to those of us who aren’t overly familiar with the bands native… Continue Reading →
You’ve got to hand it to Wytch Hazel, they’re pretty bloody prolific. This is this their third full length album since 2016, and therefore you might be wondering if the retro-rock/metal UK outfit might be exhausting their well of ideas…. Continue Reading →
Although black metal musicians are not exactly known for cracking jokes, French band Déluge were apparently partly joking when they decided to tag their music and themselves as “untrve black metal”. In doing so, however, they have, probably unintentionally, nicely… Continue Reading →
