The Damnnation – Way Of Perdition (Soulseller Records)

After listening to this debut album a couple times, I found the vocals very reminiscent of Arch Enemy’s ‘Khaos Legions’. It’s at this point I decided to read the band bio. Formed 3 years ago in São Paulo, Brazil, and… Continue Reading →

Vulcano – Stone Orange (Emanzipation Productions)

Long standing and enduring thrash veterans Vulcano have been around for around four decades and released eleven albums, plus a smattering of lives and EPs, previous to this latest effort. Whilst probably never attaining the same status as their compatriots… Continue Reading →

Imparity / Les Mémoires Fall – Dying Dreams (Schattenpfade Lichtpfade)

This 6-track split EP has three tracks by German quartet Imparity & three by Brazilian duo Les Mémoires Fall. Both bands have a touch of doom to their sound, along with more than a hint of gothic overtones owing to… Continue Reading →

Papangu – Holoceno (Repose Records)

Papangu’s debut album sounds in equal part interesting and daunting, if their introduction of it anything to go by: it is “a concept album inspired by ecological escatology and the modernist literature of Norheastern Brazil – a hardy, arid region… Continue Reading →

Le Chant Noir – La Société Satanique Des Poètes Morts (Personal Records)

Theatrical, gothic but most definitely black metal. Le Chant Noir could have been written as an alternative soundtrack to Interview With A Vampire; maybe a biopic of the life and times of Dracula or else piped through the halls of… Continue Reading →

Desalmado – Mass Mental Devolution (Gruesome Records)

Politically charged Brazilian bump and grind time. Desalmado, which I have just discovered means heartless or cruel have been compared to the likes of Nasum and Brutal Truth and that may well be how they sounded over their earlier albums… Continue Reading →

Thy Light – S/T (Talheim Records)

Isolation, solitude, nostalgia and poeticism all meet headlong here over two lengthy tracks. Paolo Bruni is the person behind all artistic expressions on this release. He comes from Brazil and now resides in Scotland. This is possibly not the reason… Continue Reading →

Anarkhon – Phantasmagorical Personification Of The Death Temple (Debemur Morti)

As you know I adore the gore, but there’s more to me than that. A good summary of my relationship Death Metal actually would be the book Rotting Ways To Misery: The History Of Finnish Death Metal. Many of the… Continue Reading →

Thermohaline – Maelström (Onism Productions)

Colds winds rage across seas. That’s what they tell us. The sea seems to be at the heart of this debut album from Brazilian progressive black metal band Thermohaline. Creaking timbers on the waves set the scene, but turn into… Continue Reading →

Lacrima Mortis – Posthumous (Talheim Records)

The package of discs that arrived via Talheim Records just prior to the end of the year have taken us all over the place and now find us in Blumenau, Santa Catarina Brazil. Lacrima Mortis appear to be a fairly… Continue Reading →

Tuatha De Danann – The Tribes Of Witching Souls (Trollzorn)

It’s taken a year or so, but at last Brazilian Folk Rock/Metal band Tuatha De Danann’s “The Tribes Of Witching Souls” finally gets a proper Worldwide release thanks to the good people at Trollzorn. But let’s be honest right from… Continue Reading →

Paradise in Flames – Devil’s Collection (Bloodblast)

This sounds to be an interesting proposition. Brazilian symphonic black metal band have been going since 2003 and are now releasing their third full album to go with a couple of early demos and a 2019 EP. From the onset… Continue Reading →
