October File– The Application Of Loneliness, Ignorance, Misery, Love And Despair – An Introspective Of The Human Condition (Candlelight)

With a title that owes more to a university thesis than an album of music, October File make a welcome return with their first offering since 2010. As ever they remain difficult to pigeonhole when it comes to their musical… Continue Reading →

Emptiness – Nothing But The Whole (Dark Descent)

Whoever heard of introspective death metal? Well apparently, if you splice just the right amount of black metal into the mix, a delicate splash of industrial gloom and you’ve got the starkly named Emptiness. You may think that’s a rather… Continue Reading →

Invertia – Another Scheme Of The Wicked (Ohm Resistance)

I had my beady eye on this for a while from the never ending list of digital review requests, wanting to get at it but not having the time. The allure of a biog mentioning Gorgoroth and Skinny Puppy in… Continue Reading →

Frozen Ocean – The Dyson Swarm (Kristallblut)

So we have the first but almost certainly not the last release of the year from Russian project Frozen Ocean and as ever it’s an intriguing proposition wondering where the fertile mind of musician Vaarwel is taking us to this… Continue Reading →

Twilight – Beneath Trident’s Tomb (Century Media)

Nobody would really have expected that this USBM meeting of minds would have made it to a third album and be signed by Century Media when they released their debut self-titled album back in 2005. It was an album that… Continue Reading →

Culted – Oblique to All Paths (Relapse)

The internet is for porn, right? Time to step into the 21st century, friends; the World Wide Web is now an eclectic array of cats, cat gifs, funny cat videos AND porn (without cats). Oh, and it’s also seen the… Continue Reading →

Jesu – Everyday I Get Closer To The Light From Which I Came (Avalanche)

With all eyes and ears being on Godflesh and their resurrection recently one could have forgotten about Jesu and the fact that Justin Broadrick has his own more reflective project. I rued the day that Godflesh split having been a… Continue Reading →

The Nihilistic Front – Procession To Annihilation (Aesthetic Death)

Having not heard any of the three previously self-released albums by Australian act The Nihilistic Front I was luckily provided a crash course of some of their older material thanks to a compilation put together by Stu of their new… Continue Reading →

Concrete Lung – Subtract Nerve (Armalyte)

If you have your lungs full of concrete and know this industrial wrecking crew you are not going to want to rest on your laurels if you fancy picking up this their fourth release. It is available only in the… Continue Reading →

Altar Of Plagues – Teethed Glory And Injury (Candlelight)

I have enjoyed (if that is the right word) Irish band Altar Of Plagues since they first caught my attention, partly due to the music and also due to the mystery behind them. This is no mystery in the form… Continue Reading →

Voices – Voices From The Human Forest Create A Fugue Of Imaginary Rain (Candlelight)

Whopping album title and whopping band! I went to check out Voices at one of their first shows at the Unicorn. I took the night off as did not want to review them on a first encounter guessing that they… Continue Reading →

P.H.O.B.O.S – Atonal Hypernesia (Megaton Mass)

Somehow I keep seeming to pick up long discs with long songs for review and this is no exception. P.H.O.B.O.S. from Paris play pretty much instrumental material (with the exception of a few low vocal mumblings kept well in the… Continue Reading →
