Oranssi Pazuzu – Muuntautuja (Nuclear Blast)

I often ponder the madness of subgenres and micro genres in music. I love to discuss and argue them with my son in law George who also writes for Ave Noctum. A blastbeat paired with a sub drop in a… Continue Reading →

Aset – Astral Rape (LADLO Productions)

Another day, another band with undisclosed members. This time they spring from Oranssi Pazuzu, Seth and ‘other undisclosed bands’. Fair enough and also if you like either of those two bands I’d advise you to run out and buy this,… Continue Reading →

Esoctrilihum – Astraal Constellations Of The Majickal Zodiac (I, Voidhanger)

How does one begin to write about Esoctrilihum? Well, by mentioning the project’s, nay, its label I, Voidhanger’s, album covers, of course. Where else to start? Vibrant esoteric album art is a staple marketing tactic for I, Voidhanger releases –… Continue Reading →

Deliverance – Neon Chaos In A Junk Sick Dawn (LADLO)

Although no duelling banjos here there are plenty of aspects making French band Deliverance a very interesting addition to LADLO’s roster. Its their 3rd album and first time I have encountered them. They made an entrance with EP ‘Doomsday, Please’… Continue Reading →

Inferno Festival – Rockefeller and John Dee, Oslo Norway 17/4/22

Ah that bittersweet feeling of the last day of a festival. Still a whole day of great music and festivities to be had, but also that knowledge that this is the last day and then it is back to “real… Continue Reading →

Dust Mountain – Hymns For Wilderness (Svart Records)

In the northern hemisphere, autumn is the time of the year when nature is at its most colourful, its most friendly. It’s neither extremely hot nor extremely cold, and there are field crops and fruit aplenty. Earth looks like a… Continue Reading →

Sol Kia – Zos Ethos (I, Voidhanger)

This is heady stuff and music that necessitates the lighting of incense to smother the air with fragrance and thick cloying plumes of smoke. Sol Kia are comprised of two Belgian ritualists Stephane Van Tricht who is responsible for vocals… Continue Reading →

Fluisteraars – Gegrepen door de Geest der Zielsontluiking (Eisenwald)

I could have sworn I had tackled Dutch ‘whisperers’ Fluisteraars in the past review wise but realised I had been getting them muddled up with countrymen Fluisterwoud who actually split up in 2009. An easy mistake I guess but one… Continue Reading →

Black Curse – Endless Wound (Sepulchral Voice)

The world has got one hall of a lot bigger and the furthest we can travel is where the music takes us at the moment and this time round it’s off to Denver Colorado. If that gives you visions of… Continue Reading →

Oranssi Pazuzu – Mestarin kynsi (Nuclear Blast)

Oranssi Pazuzu’s unique blend of psychedelia and black metal have earned them critical acclaim over the last 13 years – their name when translated from its native Finnish means orange Pazuzu (Pazuzu being a demon) and could not be more… Continue Reading →

Death, Void, Terror – To The Great Monolith II (Repose Records)

I know we (well mainly me actually) make the occasional quip about receiving the new soundtrack to the apocalypse but fuck me has it not got even more real over the last couple of weeks? No need to elaborate, I’m… Continue Reading →

Insect Ark – The Vanishing (Profound Lore)

Whether it’s me or the music, or a combination of both, I can’t really say, but Insect Ark’s compositions always remind me of certain literature. With Marrow Hymns (2018) I had to think of the writing of the Bronte Sisters… Continue Reading →
