Anvil – Anvil is Anvil (SPV)

Anyone with a heart who saw the film “The Story Of Anvil” knows the endearing story of this band’s main personnel, their 35 year and recording history, their countless tours, their loyalty and their struggles. There are many long-suffering musicians… Continue Reading →

Lebensnacht – A Raging Storm of Apocalypse (Naturmacht)

Germany’s Lebensnacht has been a prolific black metal entity since releasing its first split in 2012. Its previous album, 2014’s ‘Uudelleensyntynyt ikuiseen pimeyteen’, was even preceded by not one but two full-lengths in 2013. Having left a hefty two-year gap… Continue Reading →

Ande – Licht (S/R)

Ande is actually a chap called Jim from Belgium. He used to be in a garage rock band called Whocares but obviously not enough people did as it appears they played their last gig at the end of 2014. After… Continue Reading →

Oranssi Pazuzu – Värähtelijä (Svart)

These Finnish psychonauts have been around bamboozling the senses since 2007 and this is their fourth album. I think it is fair to say they were pretty unheard of in the UK until their third disc Valonielu dropped via Svart… Continue Reading →

Greenleaf – Rise Above The Meadow (Napalm)

There’s the moment that the big fat riff to opener ‘A Million Fireflies ‘ clubs you in the face like an over -friendly grizzly bear with a sound so impossibly perfect stoner, that you just want to lie back and… Continue Reading →

Maze Of Terror – Ready To Kill (Empire)

There is something about South American metal bands which really captivates. Whether it is because their fans are so passionate about the metal scene there (seriously, watch any live dvd from S.A and just watch the crowd!) or because it… Continue Reading →

Ereb Altor – Blut Ilt Traut (Cyclone Empire)

I’ve been a fan of Ereb Altor ever since I reviewed their first album, “By Honour” all the way back in 2008 (Christ, am I that  old?). Mats and Ragnar of Ereb Altor are also in the supremely excellent band… Continue Reading →

High Priest Of Saturn – Sons of Earth and Sky (Svart)

Music is the TARDIS of non Whovians. Hear me out …..come on….. come back. Like the fictional police box , the recordings of the world’s artists are much larger once explored than the relatively small space they take up (especially… Continue Reading →

Banquet – Jupiter Rose (Heavy Psych Sounds)

If your quest is for metal, and nothing but the most extreme, sorry, but here’s the time you should click away to the next review on Ave Noctum. Still reading? Good, because that means you know that the site prides… Continue Reading →

Temisto – S/T (Pulverised)

Scandinavia is renowned for producing some of the most innovative, raw and unique extreme metal the world has to offer. If there were any words to describe Swedish duo Temisto, they would definitely be “innovative,” “raw,” and “unique”, as the… Continue Reading →

Deathgasm – Jason Lei Howden (Studiocanal)

A heavy metal horror film, should be right up our street. However past experiences of the limited sub-genre have proved this is not necessarily going to be the case. The problem being \\\metal/// per-se sets itself up for ridicule and… Continue Reading →

Destroyer 666 – Wildfire (Season of Mist)

Crikey, was it really 2009 since the last Destroyer 666 album? It seems much more recent than that, and yet here we are again with the fifth full length album from the Australian metal crew. The band relocated to Europe… Continue Reading →
