Sovereign – Altered Realities (Dark Descent)

This Norwegian version of Sovereign (there are over 15 bands of this name listed that I could find) are a death/thrash group featuring ex members of Nocturnal Breed, Incinerator (these guys are awesome!) and Nekromantheon. ‘Altered Reality’ eventually gets going… Continue Reading →

Go Ahead And Die – Unhealthy Mechanisms (Nuclear Blast)

Like the rise and fall of the sun, leaves that fall from the trees in the autumn and grow back in the spring, Max Cavalera will release new music at least four times a year. Belying his age (fifty-four, although… Continue Reading →

Obituary + Pest Control – Leeds University 30/8/23

This tour by Obituary, dubbed the Barely Alive In The UK tour, saw the pioneering US death metal band play a string of dates across the UK and Ireland that I have not seen in some time. Indeed the recent… Continue Reading →

Bloodgutter – Death Mountain (Trollzorn)

Danish death metal? Did I hear that right? Now don’t get me wrong, I absolutely love Konkhra (forever one of the most over-looked metal bands of the 90’s), but outside of a couple of bands (Hatesphere spring to mind), Denmark… Continue Reading →

New World Depression – Interment Of Sins (S/R)

Ah, the sweet savage sound of planet crushing death metal courtesy of Germany’s New World Depression whose sixth full length comes hurtling from your speakers like an atomic bomb dropped from up on high. I really liked this bands last… Continue Reading →

Soulslicer – Pandemic (Great Dane)

Molder- Engrossed In Decay (Prosthetic)

Having formed in 2017 the Illinois based Death Metal act Molder have certainly been putting a lot of effort into getting to where they are today. Kicking off their career with a slew of live records (something I particularly like… Continue Reading →

Viogression – 3rd Stage Of Decay (Moribund Records)

If you’re an old git, like me, who was around at the beginning of the death metal explosion in the mid to late 80s and early 90s then you may have come across this US death metal act when they… Continue Reading →

Sentient Horror – Rites of Gore (Testimony Records)

It was really the end of the eighties before I started to become aware of death metal proper. I was a thrash kid through that period (and beyond), being primarily a big fan of the big four and the British… Continue Reading →

Hyperdontia – Hideous Entity (Dark Descent)

I’m a big Death Metal fan don’t get me wrong but in recent years I’ve begun to dwindle in interest. I don’t mean that to sound disheartening but I feel like more so than any other review I’ve done in… Continue Reading →

Temple Of Dread – Hades Unleashed (Testimony Records)

Three albums in three successive years, the momentum in the Temple Of Dread camp shows no signs of abating as does the creative energy on this third full length. Why change an already successful template when it delivers such top-quality… Continue Reading →

Molis Sepulcrum – Left For Worms (Pulverised Records)

Spellcheck nemesis Molis Sepulcrum, seem to be keeping a low profile on the old socials, almost as if they are either in a witness protection scheme having given up the goods and turned state against the Hungarian Mafia, or it’s… Continue Reading →
