Impious Baptism – Wrath Of The Apex Predator (Hell’s Headbangers)

Not had anything from the lovely corner of the pit that is Hell’s Headbangers for a little while so this was welcomed into my abode. This is done by J, one man black metal arsenal from Australia and ex-everyone down… Continue Reading →

Deez Nuts – Bout It (Century Media)

It’s to Australia and a bit of New York that we look for a bit of culture. Well, not really as Deez Nuts treat us to their 16 little ditties. The delicacies include “Unfuckwithable”, “What We Eat Don’t Make You… Continue Reading →

The Amenta – Flesh is Heir (Listenable Records)

Having missed these Australian extremists playing with Obituary a few months back, I felt compelled to right that wrong by getting to grips with their new album. ‘Flesh is Heir’ is their third full-length in the space of nine years… Continue Reading →

Manic Opera – All That Matters (SR)

This is the second album by Australian prog rock band Manic Opera. The first was in 2002. Between 2006 and 2010, the band had a self-imposed gap. Maybe the effect of the time lapse prior to “All That Matters” would… Continue Reading →

Raven Black Night – Barbarian Winter (Metal Blade)

A barbarian winter out of sunny Oz was a bit of a long shot for a band I knew nothing of but, billed as epic doom and previously having had an album out on Shadow Kingdom I thought ‘give it… Continue Reading →

Denouncement Pyre – Almighty Arcanum (Hells Headbangers)

This Melbourne based lot have been around since 2004 and have released a fair few demos, splits, EP’s and an album ‘World Cremation’ in 2010, prior to this. I have to admit that they had pretty much escaped me until… Continue Reading →

Kromosom – Live Forever (Southern Lord)

I immediately read the description of this and assumed that the band were from Sweden or possibly Finland where crust is undeniably king but then we have all been guilty of overlooking Australia at times, probably due to it being… Continue Reading →

Vomitor – The Escalation (Hells Headbangers)

Firstly, if you like Vomitor, just buy this already. They still sound like Vomitor so you’ll be happy as pigs in shit. But wait! Some people haven’t heard them! Well I shall guide you to the light… er dark and……. Continue Reading →

Subterranean Disposition – ST (Hypnotic Dirge)

Doom has ever been one of the more conservative genres of metal – by which I mean its evolution progresses at about the same pace as the average doom riff. With links to the progenitors of the entire music form,… Continue Reading →

Inebrious Bastard – Escape From Misery (Crust Almighty)

Sir, you may be a bastard but let it not be said that at the least you are an inebrious one! Got a certain ring to it as does the name of the record label, giving you some sort of… Continue Reading →

Crowned – Vacuous Spectral Silence (Seance Records)

Hey, look, I got an album of Aussie atmospheric black metal and Dis Pater isn’t involved! Ahem. Sorry. But it weirdly (and stupidly on my part) surprised me with my recent review duties. Anyway, sporting a fine black and white… Continue Reading →
