Junkie Kut – The Hierarchy Enslaving You (Unrepresented Music)

Ah my friends, this is music to dance to, a wardance, indeed! Junkie Kut is an odd name and is of an artist who dabbles in high electronic psalms, forged for the disenfranchised and downtrodden in society. This is music… Continue Reading →

Moonspell – Alpha Noir (Napalm Records)

Credit where credit is due, Portugal’s Moonspell has had one of the most stable line ups in metal, with the core of the group going back to 1995 and before. Only the bassist is the new fish within the band… Continue Reading →

Pseudogod – Deathwomb Catechisis (Kult)

I have been lucky enough to have had a really good run of extraordinary albums to review recently: Luck of the draw and one case of pathetic wheedling. But they do kind of put things into sharp relief, particularly when… Continue Reading →

Tombstones – Year Of The Burial (Soulseller Records)

Hailing from Norway, Tombstones refer to their music as Norweedian Doom which doesn’t give you much of a clue to quite how dark and dirty they are actually prepared to get. They are purveyors of chillingly doomy, stoner-riddled sludge. They… Continue Reading →

Interview – Deathhammer

Deathhammer could have been spawned back in 1985, their fast aggressive version of thrash is a breath of fresh in a sometimes complacent wider appealing thrash genre. What sets these guys apart is their ease of delivery; their music is… Continue Reading →

Reverence – The Asthenic Ascension (Candlelight Records)

Whilst forever being labelled as industrial black metal, I’ve never quite got where the industrial label really came from where they were concerned, save for the title of their debut album ‘Industrial Mental Concept’. Like their countrymen Blut Aus Nord,… Continue Reading →

Scythe – Beware The Scythe (Primitive Reaction)

Formed from the ashes of Chicago based thrash bruisers Usurper, Rick Scythe has a new project simply called Scythe, a no nonsense heavy metal band that more or less continues where Usurper finished off. There are no frills here, its… Continue Reading →

Hawkwind – Onward (Plastichead)

There is always going to be a certain amount of nostalgia involved in reviewing a Hawkwind album, well they have been around since forever (1969 to be precise). I have fond memories of walking into my local record shop on… Continue Reading →

Pigeon Toe – The First Perception (Lifeforce Records)

Simplicity and intrigue appear to surround the unusually named Pigeon Toe, if their track titles are anything to go by. “The Man with the Cat” is not a regular track name but it’s clear that this isn’t a regular band…. Continue Reading →

Trippy Wicked & The Cosmic Children of the Knight – Going Home (Superhot Records)

I have had the pleasure of catching this band live on numerous occasions, and I have followed them from their first humble beginnings, so I am rather excited about this new full length album release by this doomed, stoned, tripped… Continue Reading →

Absu, Impiety & Necronomicon – London Underworld 12/4/12

With all the hipsters off at Roadburn it was only the true kvlt elite filing into the Underworld tonight, indeed the main bar area of the venue was closed off so it really felt like an intimate affair. With a… Continue Reading →

Saint Vitus – Lillie: F-65 (Season of Mist)

Three drum beats is all it needs. Three. Then that dredger like guitar sound ploughs into you while that voice rips apart your psyche. Three drum beats and it’s 1995 again. Ah, maybe not but it’s damned close. The opening… Continue Reading →
