Fleshgod Apocalypse – Opera (Nuclear Blast)

This album may never have come to pass, and that fateful day in the Italian Apennines 3 years ago this week is also the inspiration for much of what we have here today. While hanging upside down with several fractures… Continue Reading →

Folterkammer – Weibermacht (Century Media)

Well this stood out as looking a bit on the different side. Based both in New York and Europe this multi-national cast list comprises of a group clad in ecclesiastical costumes and looking more than a little pious. However, once… Continue Reading →

Demonstealer – The Propaganda Machine (Black Lion)

The Demonstealer, whom we shall come back to shortly, has been a band since 1998, but has also been producing released records since 2008, and so by any measure has been in the game a long time. Turns out that… Continue Reading →

Haliphron – Prey (Listenable)

Talk about a freshly inked deal. Yes, for those not aware, which is probably most of us a Haliphron Atlanticus is one of the largest species of octopus found in the deep and as far as the band are concerned… Continue Reading →

Epica – The Alchemy Project (Atomic Fire Records)

Symphonic Metal maestros Epica always put a bit of extra effort into their EPs. There’s usually something special to entice their fans into making a purchase and to make the EP almost as much of an event as a full… Continue Reading →

Post-Mortem – Monumental Pandemonium (Great Dane Records)

I was very tempted to criticise this French band’s moniker because there are absolutely loads of metal acts with the name Post Mortem, whether written as Postmortem or Post Mortem but they are the only act I found that hyphenated… Continue Reading →

Hideous Divinity – LV-426 (Century Media)

Sometimes, a quick blast of Technical Death Metal is all you need. Nothing too long or played at furious speeds, just a nice short EP with a handful of tracks on it to show off some nice, skilled playing and… Continue Reading →

Exanimis – Marionnettiste (Klonosphere Records)

One could never accuse this French band of lacking ambition, their debut album is as opulent and lavish as anything you’ll hear this year within the symphonic metal sphere no matter whether power metal, death metal, black metal or any… Continue Reading →

Foretoken – Ruin (Prosthetic)

Throwing everything but the kitchen sink (and sometimes even that) into your overall sound can be a recipe for disaster and you have to be an accomplished musician to pull it off and not have the result sounding like an… Continue Reading →

Fleshgod Apocalypse, Bloodshot Dawn, Inhuman Nature – Milton Keynes Craufurd Arms 17/2/20

I think the last time I went to a gig in Milton Keynes was in at the Bowl in June 1998, but must say that other than it being a fair distance to get to, The Craufurd Arms did impress… Continue Reading →

Fleshgod Apocalypse – Veleno (Nuclear Blast)

When a friend of mine suggested I give ‘King’ a listen in 2016, as I’d never heard of the Roman trio Fleshgod Apocalypse at the time, I was rather quick to complement him and thank him profusely for the introduction…. Continue Reading →

The Monolith Deathcult – V2 Vergelding (Human Detonator Records)

Although their music is nothing short of lethally serious Dutch nutters The Monolith Deathcult have a rare sense of humour in the death metal scene and have never been above cracking the odd joke at their expense either. V2 Vergelding… Continue Reading →
