Proscription – Conduit (Dark Descent)

Anyone in London who didn’t make the 2-day Finnfest at The Garage in February is probably kicking themselves now as it would have been one of the last shows before lockdown kicked in. Although not on the bill, Proscription would… Continue Reading →

Shrapnel Storm – Shrapnel Storm (Great Dane Records)

War! What is it good for? Not a lot really, other than perhaps music. I mean is war the love song of the Metal or even Punk world? I would say so. It’s a topic that is covered time and… Continue Reading →

Temple Nightside – Pillars of Damnation (Iron Bonehead)

Ah, the current hot weather spell in the UK makes me think of good old Australia. I tell you what else makes me think of our south of the equator cousins? Blackened death metal. I reviewed 2016’s “The Hecatomb” album… Continue Reading →

Lantern – Dimensions (Dark Descent Records)

The first thing that strikes you about this album is the widely varying track lengths that range from a couple of minutes to fourteen which matches the massively fluctuating styles the band has constructed within the six compositions on this… Continue Reading →

Putrid – Antichrist Above (Godz Ov War Productions)

I was surprised that there are only a few bands called Putrid on my investigations, however there are loads of bands suffixed with the word putrid; putrid this and putrid that etc. This version of Putrid hails from the deepest… Continue Reading →

Necrochaos – Crawling Through Cadavers (Godz Ov War)

Originally released in October 2019 this worthy demo has been quickly picked up by the Polish label for a physical release. At the helm of this project is multi-instrumentalist Eugene Kohl from Germany who has many other projects under his… Continue Reading →

Cadaver – D.G.A.F. (Nuclear Blast)

What, where, when, how, why? Were immediate questions that hit me when this unexpected body bag turned up in my digital review files. A quick look affirmed that yes, this was the correct Cadaver, the Norwegian one, that had arrived,… Continue Reading →

Abysmal Dawn – Phylogenesis (Season Of Mist)

My first experience of this US death metal band was a reissue of “From Ashes” in 2012 which was originally released in 2006. Since that time the band has released a further three albums containing their own blend of melodic… Continue Reading →

Perdition Temple – Sacraments Of Descension (Hell’s Headbangers)

Some classic religious baiting from a death metal trio here. Nothing new in that but when you consider the last time I encountered former Angelcorpse musician Gene Palubicki he was wearing priestly vestments and conducting a Catholic ceremony you may… Continue Reading →

The Revenge Project – Deceit Demise (S/R)

Think Nile, think Immolation, think Morbid Angel and you will be on the right tracks with these Bulgarians, The Revenge Project. ‘Deceit – Demise’ is the fifth full length from these pulverising death metal beasts and it is full of… Continue Reading →

Invictus – The Catacombs of Fear (FDA Records)

Wow they are a lot of bands called Invictus! A quick search on Encyclopaedia Metallum unearths 10. Are they all such fans of Matt Damon and rugby I wonder? This particular Invictus are a three piece Death Metal band from… Continue Reading →

Abisme – As Fear Falls In (S/R)

As a debut release this Spanish act has set themselves a rather large bar to surmount for their sophomore such is the quality here. The eerie despondent acoustic opening to “Amoral Era” breathes levels of menace into the track before… Continue Reading →
