Hounds – Begin Transmission 2 (S/R)

I caught Hounds opening for Killing Joke back in March 2013 and found their somewhat brash and pumping electro beats suitable entertainment before the main event. This EP turned up complete with a Killing Joke cover and a 3 disc… Continue Reading →

Prong – Ruining Lives (SPV)

Another Prong album, and yet another line-up, the only consistent feature being founder, guitarist, writer, producer and vocalist Tommy Victor, now supported by Jason Christopher on bass and ex-Winds Of Plague drummer Art Cruz. This constant need for reinvention may… Continue Reading →

Junkie Kut – Rebirth (Unrepresented Music)

Rebirth may well be the title of this new three track EP from London / Brighton act Junkie Kut but don’t worry about them having wimped out or changed direction, there are still lashings of aggroggressive, electronic, sonic beats behind… Continue Reading →

Throne Of Molok – Beat Of Apocalypse (Eternal Tombs)

Despite its somewhat unwieldy title I really enjoyed Italian band Throne Of Molok’s debut album ‘Chtonian A.E.O.N. 1010011010.’ Hell it even arrived with a cardboard cut-out gas mask suggesting cyber terror was about to be unleashed and indeed it lived… 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 →

Combichrist – We Love You (Out Of Line)

Being a fan of Combichrist’s brand of aggrotech, I was massively disappointed with the direction they took on last year’s album and computer game soundtrack ‘No Redemption’, where they eschewed their usual aggressive techno-industrial stance in favour of tepid and… Continue Reading →

Fossils – Flesh Hammer (Indisciplinarian)

“Hey Lee, how do you fancy reviewing a drum and bass album”? the Ed enquired. As he hastily retreated amidst a shower of expletives, threats and assorted stationery he informed me under protest that this was drum and bass album… Continue Reading →

Blitzkrieg Baby – Kid’s World (Beläten)

Last album by the beastly Blitzkriek Baby ‘Porcus Norvegicus’ literally chilled me to the (ham) bone. This was cold industrial, martial music for a world on the brink of collapse and it was horrifying in tone and execution. Needless to… Continue Reading →

Jensen – Zero One Redux (Armalyte)

No young band on their first outing deserves to be saddled with the ridiculous hyperbole that Jensen were by one commentator, so it won’t be repeated here. I should say though that if I had heard this about seven years… Continue Reading →

Baal – Shurado (Metropolis)

Japanese electrometallers Baal already have a couple of EPs out and have done a stint in the USA and this debut sees the bands aggro infested electro mechanized ear battering hitting the world. “Shurado” which means “Scent Of Carnage” showcases… Continue Reading →

Naxal Protocol – The Guilty Should Get What They Deserve (Eibon)

Can’t argue with the album title but what of the band? We are told that Naxal Protocol is the new name from previously defunct power noise artists Cazzodio. You can kind of understand why after they took a break for… Continue Reading →
