If you are gonna thrash do it blackly said someone very sensibly once, or perhaps it was just me. That’s the way I like it though baby and a good dose of black n’ roll always hits the mark and… Continue Reading →
Demonic, powerful, evil, malevolent and malicious are just a few adjectives for this behemoth from Georgia’s very own Ruins Of Faith. This trio are unleashing their 2nd full length, ‘Dark Evil Illusory Substance’, and it is vile and nasty in… Continue Reading →
I always finding it disconcerting when an album starts with three minutes of acoustic progressive ambience – quite sophisticated actually – and immediately changes tack and goes into death metal vibes. I won’t hold this against Piah Mater specifically, whose… Continue Reading →

This is this Finnish troop’s third release, admittedly I’d completely missed their second encounter, but based on their debut, I wanted to hit this one. It does exactly as I thought it would… Many reviews of their earlier material compared… Continue Reading →
