Manimalism – S/T (Adversum)

Chances are you have never heard of this rather obscure Norwegian entity but if I told you their roots spread right back in time to the early 90’s when the black metal scene in the country started going all weird… Continue Reading →

11 Paranoias – Stealing Fire From Heaven (Ritual Productions)

11 Paranoia’s are an interesting bunch. Relying solely on improvisation and stream of consciousness/heat of the moment song writing, the seriously psychedelic, fuzzed out doom trio have carved out a unique sound and approach to their craft and the result… Continue Reading →

The House of Capricorn – Morning Star Rise (Svart)

New Zealand based blackened doom merchants, The House of Capricorn bring an interesting offering to the altar with their occult heavy third full length album. With an ominous feeling that the end is looming, they mix the atmospheric nature of… Continue Reading →

Conan, 11Paranoias, GHOLD & Torpor – London Underworld 30/10/14

It’s an undisputed fact that Old Empire are currently unrivalled in their ability to put together killer line ups within London. Tonight is no exception, and sees four of the UK’s best home grown talents out to celebrate Devil’s Night… Continue Reading →

Apostle of Solitude – Of Woe and Wounds (Cruz Del Sur)

Not too long ago a certain cow tongued wig wearing dinosaur very publicly lambasted the internet and heralded it as the death of rock and roll. I’d like to reply to his contention; fuck off you stack heeled twat! Yes,… Continue Reading →

Caronte – Church of Shamanic Goetia (Van)

This is Italy’s answer to the likes of Electric Wizard, Reverend Bizarre and with some vocals that sound sometimes like Danzig. Essentially this is tripped out, heavy as hell doom. Even after the first listen, this is an awesome release…. Continue Reading →

Latitude Egress – To Take Up The Cross (Art Of Propaganda)

This would appear to be the work of just the one necromancer known as Niklas or Nerrath to his acolytes. Latitude Egress is the new name given to an old project entitled Licht Erlischt who released two albums via Black… Continue Reading →

Autumnal – The End Of The Third Day (Cyclone Empire)

With the days darkening earlier and earlier and the weather going to get progressively worse, this album is perfect for those moody melancholic evenings. It’s hauntingly beautiful, but for some reason rather uplifting at the same time. This is the… Continue Reading →

Epitaph – Crawling Out Of The Crypt (High Roller)

Classic 80’s style Heavy/Doom Metal anyone? From an Italian band that were there the first time but have only just got around to re-recording their best tracks? A band that dress in silver pointy hats, fake Spock ears, skin-tight cropped… Continue Reading →

Ancient VVisdom – Sacrificial (Magic Bullet)

Third full length from Texan occult rockers has taken a decided shift from dark and brooding folk tones of previous album ‘Deathlike’ and moved into louder, brasher territory. Whereas their previous record was cerebral, intelligent and thought provoking, it seems… Continue Reading →

Vallenfyre & Ancient Ascendant – London Boston Arms 21/10/14

Bit odd that there was just the one support tonight and they were not on for well over an hour after the doors opened. Anyone would think there was a lack of bands up for playing, especially as the one… Continue Reading →

Dawnbringer – Night of the Hammer (Profound Lore)

Chris Black may be famous of late for his High Spirits band, but this is his original band that has been going since 1995 and listening to ‘Nobody There’, it’s clear it’s Black’s vocals, albeit a slower tempo than the… Continue Reading →
