I quite enjoyed this Norwegian band’s previous album, ‘Temple Of The Adversarial Fire’ which I reviewed for the site back in 2017. I suspect the reason behind the inconsistent release rate is down to a couple of members being in… Continue Reading →
This album with outstanding artwork is a “dark space epic of a person escaping into the most distant constellation of their mind with the help of narcotics”. Although this is Mathilde’s first album, the band has been around for eight… Continue Reading →
No shortage of stuff coming out of Australia at the moment and following hot on the heels of albums by Resin Tomb and Vipassi here we have another band Tanin’iver from Adelaide. During the last few nights I have also… Continue Reading →
I thoroughly enjoyed this US band’s self-titled debut released in 2022, it was packed with blackened ferocity and this follow up continues that style extremely successfully. The opening tune ‘Emergence’ is very short and sort of acts like a prolonged… Continue Reading →
Helpfully, we are given points of reference for this debut album by Greek band Wothrosch. The reference points are the soundscape of SepticFlesh running into the fury of Anaal Nathrakh. So armed with this information, it came as no surprise… Continue Reading →

Once upon a time I would only really care for Black Metal in the winter. Then again when I refer to such instances I was a teenager, living at home, travelling to gigs on my own etc and because of… Continue Reading →
Polish extreme metal, eh? These days, it’s pretty much synonymous with Behemoth, which – to my mind at least – is a massive shame. There’s been a really great and healthy scene over there for a long time now, and… Continue Reading →
This delightfully named collective from Poland have their debut album upon us, following a trio of split releases and a debut EP. I must admit, I’ve been looking out for this one to be released. Yes, it is disgusting rock… Continue Reading →
It is described as death-black metal, and it is death-black metal. This is Polish metal and so the atmosphere is dingy and threatening. The music is relentless and uncompromising. The vocals are like subterranean growls. It is harsh. This is… Continue Reading →
