Upon Stone – Dead Mother Moon (Century Media)

The debut by this American quartet from the San Fernando Valley kicks off to a great start as they deliver their Gothenburg style Melodic Death Metal as they open with the title track “Dead Mother Moon” which immediately gets up… Continue Reading →

Orphaned Land – A Heaven You May Create (Live in Tel Aviv) (Century Media)

Quick, name a band that far, far more people would be obsessed with if they could only be induced to listen to them, even just once. In answer, I give you the wait to get out of the main carpark… Continue Reading →

Angelus Apatrida – Aftermath (Century Media)

Angelus Apatrida are a band we here at Ave Noctum have nothing but high praise for. Each of their releases since 2012 which have been covered here have all been full of nothing but praise for the Albacete titans and… Continue Reading →

Wayfarer – American Gothic (Century Media)

Like all nations of the world, the USA has its indigenous folk-esque genres such as country and americana. I’m quite pleased to say Wayfarer from Colorado picked the latter of those two because americana does not have the same sketchy… Continue Reading →

3TEETH – EndEx (Century Media)

With 3 solid albums and support slots with the likes of Tool, Ministry and Rammstein, L.A. industrialists 3TEETH like many were slowed down by the great plague. Without that who knows, they could be headlining bigger stadiums themselves but had… Continue Reading →

Mayhem – Daemonic Rites (Century Media)

The question on everyone’s lips… does the world really need another Mayhem live album? Well.. perhaps. The glut of nostalgic Mayhem live releases in recent years have almost exclusively documented recordings from 1990, the notable (yet equally nostalgic) exception being… Continue Reading →

Marduk – Memento Mori (Century Media)

With their last two sermons ‘Frontschwein’ and ‘Viktoria’ focusing on war it’s probably a good time for Swedish death squad Marduk to return with a different theme after a five-year gap between Studio albums. Fear not, destruction is still rampant… Continue Reading →

Spirit Adrift – Ghost at the Gallows (Century Media)

“SPIRIT ADRIFT’s gimmick is simple: there is no gimmick,” says the band’s mastermind, Nate Garrett. “Just great songs, great heavy riffs, catchy parts that make you want to bang your head and uplifting parts that make you want to fly… Continue Reading →

Signs of the Swarm – Amongst the Low and Empty (Century Media)

Attending UK TechFest recently means that I ran the risk of being deathcored out, but it’s all good. Here’s another example of the genre from Signs of the Swarm. Their fifth album, “Amongst the Low and Empty” promises for our… Continue Reading →

Mental Cruelty – Zwielicht (Century Media)

The fourth album by this German quintet features their new vocalist Lukas Nicolai, along with founding guitarist Nahuel Lozano and bassist Viktor Dick, and for their second outing drummer Danny Straßer and guitarist Marvin Kessler. I mistakenly assumed they were… Continue Reading →

Frozen Soul – Glacial Domination (Century Media)

Like all other metal genres there are numerous sub-genres or styles associated with the evolution of bands and the genre communities they represent. Death metal is no stranger and it is now a firm belief in my mind that a… Continue Reading →

Enforced – War Remains (Century Media)

I was pleased when I read that this, the third album release from Enforced, was “an aggressive, no frills thrash record”. The previous album “Kill Grid” (2021) was exactly that, and I loved it. On the basis of that album… Continue Reading →
