Barathrum – Überkill (Hammer Of Hate)

Moonreich – Amer (LADLO)

This nicely packaged album comes from Parisian band Moonreich, who have been plying their trade since 2008 and have released five albums including this one. The sleeve-work is probably the only nice element of it, as this is a black… Continue Reading →

Kringa – All Stillborn Fires, Lick My Heart (Van Records / Terratur Possessions)

Totalitarian – Bloodlands (Barren Void)

It is promised that we will be dragged through the streets of Warsaw, across the fields of Treblinka, into the marshes of Belarus, or into the death pits of Babi Yar. Our guides are Italian band Totalitarian. This EP is… Continue Reading →

Misanthropic Existence – Death Shall Be Served (Aesthetic Death)

I understand that this album is a re-release on the basis that the original had limited exposure, as is the way when bands on a limited budget can only do so much. Now released through the Aesthetic Death label and… Continue Reading →

Warfist / Excidium – Laws Of Perversion And Filth (Godz Ov War Productions)

Persecutory – Towards the Ultimate Extinction (Godz ov War)
