Cognitive – Abhorrence (Metal Blade)

My first experience of this uncompromising and intense technical death metal outfit was back in 2018 in the much beloved and missed Maguires Pizza Bar when they played with Neuroma in their final ever hometown show. The band were a… Continue Reading →

Hellbutcher – Hellbutcher (Metal Blade)

I often think solo artists in the Metal world don’t amount to a great deal, Bruce’s solo work is no Maiden, the same can be said for Halford and Priest, and thus the list goes on. Even someone like Ihashn… Continue Reading →

Dååth – The Deceivers (Metal Blade)

“Fans will rejoice at the knowledge that this vital band has returned”, I read. I guess that counts me out because I knew almost nothing about this band. In fact shortly before I received this, I read a post by… Continue Reading →

Gost – Prophecy (Metal Blade)

To say I was rather taken with my introduction to one-man project Gost with Possessor is putting it mildly. And the follow up Malediction was equally impressive; James Lollar had managed to craft a unique being from the cloth of… Continue Reading →

Midnight – Hellish Expectations (Metal Blade)

I wrote a review a week or so ago which took me back to listening to Speed Kills as a teen. Well here I am again back in the audio time machine thanks to the one-man maniac project that is… Continue Reading →

Sorcerer – Reign Of The Reaper (Metal Blade)

When Swedish Epic Heavy/Doom Metal band Sorcerer reformed for 2015’s “In The Shadow Of The Inverted Cross” it was to all intents and purposes a new band with a new start, ready to make their own mark on the modern… Continue Reading →

Cirith Ungol – Dark Parade (Metal Blade)
