Ah, Gurthang the sword meaning “the iron of death”. The band behind the reference from Tolkien’s “Silmarillion” is from Poland and this is their seventh album. The intro or prologue as it’s called is sinister and doomy. Things fly in… Continue Reading →
Ah more sweet suffering and this time it is from Belgium and a band who are not the easiest to sum up. Basically, on the strength of third album Stilte they like starting things off slowly, drawing the listener in… Continue Reading →
In a black metal world where the genre has virtually every sub-genre type you can conjure up Finland’s Ondfødt are possibly the purist form of black metal you’ll hear in recent years. There’s no trickery here, no polluting sub-genre stains… Continue Reading →
Welcome to a day as dark as night but it is Belgian’s not Roman’s we are lending our ears to. With four albums to their name since 2005 this West Flanders trio were last referred to by us as “imperious… Continue Reading →
Germans MNHG are a new band –starting in the plague year 2020 and playing an old style of filth ridden Black and Roll. Fans of Sarke are gonna wanna swim in the cesspool of this quartet. By now it seems repetitive to describe Black and… Continue Reading →

Beyond Helevete from Berlin are a one-man band of the Black Metal persuasion. That man is Sven Krause or Natrgaard as his mum probably knows him. (I may have flipped that?) He has recently been joined by a session drummer, Jonas Scmidd to alleviate the loneliness. What am I… Continue Reading →
Perdition II huh? Well I missed Perdition I so can’t give you a comparison as to how the pieces fit together, so this is simply based on what I have. It’s that odd genre of music again; you know, the… Continue Reading →
Wow is it really four years since Ebola and drummer Bornyhake Ormenos poured their insatiable scorn on the earth with 2016’s ‘D6s6nti6rro’, an album I reviewed for Ave Noctum here. Indeed it’s hard to believe that they could even match… Continue Reading →
I was surprised to learn that Unmensch hadn’t been snapped up as a name. It’s as it sounds. This is a cold and misanthropic black metal band from Belgium, with whom, we’re told, comparisons can be made with the likes… Continue Reading →
