A Wocket in your Pocket. A  Yeps on your Steps . These both may seem alarming enough. But a Noothgrush on your toothgrush??????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hell no. Good old Dr Seuss . Not only did he give us some of the most… Continue Reading →

Uncoffined – Ritual Death And Funeral Rites (Memento Mori)

Ah, horror movie samples. Always guaranteed to make me feel my age when I struggle to place them. But of the lovely rich tones reaching out here, I am certain one is The Devil Rides Out, and t’other may be… Continue Reading →

Sarke – Aruagint (Indie Recordings)

Originally a solo project for Thomas Bergli of Khold and Old Man’s Child, he has long since abandoned the lone approach. Now comprising a full line up of some very familiar and talented faces, Sarke are well established purveyors of… Continue Reading →

Repuked – Up from the Sewers (Soulseller)

‘Fuck You, Fucking Whore’ is as to the point as you need from these gutter trash death metal purveyors, anyone who has had the pleasure with their earlier releases will know what to expect. This is rather filthy, ha, I… Continue Reading →

Scythe – Subterranean Steel (Primitive Reaction)

Few bands exemplified heavy metal like Usurper. With their no nonsense, full bore approach to their calling, they were like a Manowar that you didn’t feel ashamed to enjoy and it was a sad time when they decided to call… Continue Reading →

Túrin Turambar – Rzeczpospolita Czartowska (SR)

Whilst Poland may be more famous for its brutal death metal scene, its black metal scene is often overlooked. Bands like Mgla, early Graveland, and of course Behemoth hold their head high against their Nordic contemporaries. As with their death… Continue Reading →

Coffins – The Fleshland (Relapse)

Guantanamo Bay City Rollers – Dark Side Of The Goon (Grindhead)

It goes without saying that this lot win band name of the month if not the year and it was no surprise to discover when reading into these degenerates that a) they are Australian and b) they don’t take themselves… Continue Reading →

Heretic – Angelcunts And Devilcocks (Soulseller)

To be philosophical for a moment (hard with that album title hanging above): The notion of ‘black n roll’ is either just the logical extension of heavy metal’s occult obsession within the rock framework, or actually pretty much the antithesis… Continue Reading →

Mortal Form – The Reckoning (My Kingdom)

Every time I’ve heard current bands in the Thrash/Death Metal category it’s always Kreator/Slayer/Morbid Angel/Death (delete as appropriate) by numbers. Like there were only a limited number of Thrash bands towards the extreme side of the genre and it’s best… Continue Reading →

Damnation’s Hammer- Disciples of the Hex (I Hate)

A re-worked version of a 2009 demo, ‘Disciples of the Hex’ is the debut album by this Lancashire-based doom/death trio. The first thing that struck me when I headed to the band’s metal archives page was just how Celtic Frost-y… Continue Reading →
