Hell-Born – Natas Liah (Odium Records)

They’ve been going since the mid 90’s or so (their “Hell-Born” EP came out in 1996), and while that doesn’t necessarily make them one of the oldest Polish extreme metal outfits, it does perhaps show that they’ve had a career… Continue Reading →

Cultum Interitum – Poison of Being (Godz ov War)

Just the usual “ominous and sepulchral hymns to death, destruction, chaos and misanthropy” to savour here. This is in fact the first album from Polish black metal band Cultum Interitum following on from a demo, EP and a single since… Continue Reading →

Revulsion – S/T (Transcending Obscurity Records)

The opening line of the blurb on their bio says: “Revulsion happen to be one of Finland’s best kept secrets.” Nevertheless, while Revulsion was formed back in 2005 and released an EP in 2011, this self-titled release happens to be… Continue Reading →

Asphyx – ‘Necroceros’ Album Launch Livestream Show – Metropool, Hengelo, Netherlands 23/1/21

I’m sure I’m not alone when I say that I am struggling without live music. Over many years it has become an integral part of life and an essential release from the pressures of daily life. However, bands will be… Continue Reading →

Werewolves – What a Time to Be Alive (Prosthetic)

Ah the irony of the album title as I sit in lockdown. Even more so as Werewolves are of course Australian and as such are enjoying a lot more freedom than the majority of the planet. Hairy flea-bitten bastards! Annoyingly I cannot hold… Continue Reading →

Asphyx – Necroceros (Century Media)

Having a legendary status is surely both a boon and a hindrance. Naturally it means that you’ve achieved a huge goal but at the same time the pressure is always going to be greater. What happens if you don’t deliver?… Continue Reading →

Deathblow – Insect Politics (Sewer Mouth Records)

There’s something vivid about the concept of “insect politics”. Insects do give a certain impression. This fits in to the world of Deathblow, who deal on this punk-death metal album with various forms of decay and breakdown in the 21st… Continue Reading →

Stass – Songs Of Flesh And Decay (Emanzipation Productions)

Mr Rogga Johansson, and his grisly cohort, kicks off his account for 2021 with the second album under the Stass moniker that once again sees him collaborating with Felix Stass (vocals) of Germany’s Crematory, incorporating his considerable vocal dexterity alongside… Continue Reading →

Heads for the Dead – Into The Red (Transcending Obscurity)

There are a few record labels that really guarantee a good release on them, and Transcending Obscurity is one of those. Heads for the Dead are another death metal project featuring the near ubiquitous Jonny Pettersson (Wombath, Henry Kane et.al.),… Continue Reading →

Fun At The Morgue – Hate (S/R)

So, I am sitting here minding my own business when an email lands in my inbox from casket technician Tox in Switzerland saying they had liked my review of last release Massoula and would I do similar with their new… Continue Reading →

Frozen Soul – Crypt Of Ice (Century Media Records)

There is absolutely no doubt which band inspires this old school death metal outfit and that’s Bolt Thrower. Every song reeks of that warring onslaught we all loved about those UK deathsters. Having formed in 2018 the band has released… Continue Reading →

Pillory – Scourge of Humanity (Unique Leader Records)

And so in the blink of an eye, 2020 speedily crests the brow of December Hill and gambles it’s way, down into the inky green of the sea, to finally lay itself to rest in its own premediated, watery grave…. Continue Reading →
