Paranoia Inducta – Blood Electric (Heerwegen Tod Production)

This was a welcome arrival and I have a new ‘chill out’ album to go to here and make a change from all the noisy metal stuff. It’s a bit ironic really that it comes from a Polish musician who… Continue Reading →

Haystack – Doomsday Goes Away (Threeman Recordings)

Formed way back in the mists of time (1994), Haystack should be castigated as one of the laziest bands in Christendom (other religions are available to be used in this catchall statement to describe scale before you start flinging your… Continue Reading →

Aureole – Alunarian Bellmaster (Prophecy Productions)

This third album by Aureole, whose creator is also behind Tchornobog, is based on a science fiction scenario, in which Alunar is the world and the Bellmaster is sacrificed and incarnated as a ghost. It’s a sinister world, represented in… Continue Reading →

Utopia – Shame (S/R)

Experimental Tech-Metal outfit Shame are a 5 piece who first caught the attention of many during the Lockdown years with their debut release ‘Stalker’ released in 2021 which featured some rather high-profile guest appearances from members of The Dillinger Escape… Continue Reading →

Cerulean – Carrion Angel (I, Voidhanger)

This is one review I will keep short as the record in question is a short mix of death and some black metal clocking in at just over 20 mins. Cerulean, hailing from Arizona and California released Carrion Angel last… Continue Reading →

Hulder – Verses In Oath (20 Buck Spin)

Back in January 2021 a debut album came out that slapped the sweaty corpse paint off my mush. “Godslastering Hymns of a Forlorn Peasantry” impressed me so much it stayed in my head and ears throughout that year to top… Continue Reading →

Heretic – Filthy Hymns For Sleazy Demons (Van Records)

Heretic. One of those names that has so many entries in Metal Archives you get dizzy, but as this lot of Dutch degenerates have been trailing through the sleazy much since the late nineties they have a far better shout… Continue Reading →

Ghoul – Noxious Concoctions (Tankcrimes)

It’s been a while since we crept over the crooked, creaky bridge into Creepsylvania, six years in fact. This time we approach the ghoulish sack-clothed faced wearers lair with extreme caution. I nod acknowledgement to the headless horseman on the… Continue Reading →

Elettra Storm – Powerlords (Scarlet Records)

I wonder if there’s anyone out there who, upon hearing the most recent album by Italian Dark Symphonic Metal band Sinheresy thought “Hmm, Yes, that’s a pretty good album, but what it would sound like if the keyboard player was… Continue Reading →

Necrowretch – Swords Of Dajjal (Season Of Mist)

Is a necro(w)retch the sound made by someone who has consumed too much corpse-flesh? Possibly, as considering three different writers have tackled their albums in the past, none of them have surprisingly come back for seconds. These ghoulish Gaul’s have… Continue Reading →

Morbid Saint – Swallowed By Hell (High Roller Records)

A quick bit of research can help put to rest the alleged claims that Morbid Saint toured with Death, which ironically is what they have garnered a degree of their cult following from. In actuality the band only played a… Continue Reading →

A/Oratos – Ecclesia Gnostica (LADLO Productions)

If you are a fan of French band Griffon whose 3rd album ‘De Republica’ is due to drop any day now, boy have you got a treat in store for you even before you get to it. Vocalist Aharon has… Continue Reading →
