Angrrsth / Czort – W Czelusc (Godz Ov War)

A split of epic proportions, Polish black metal delivered in just four tracks, two from each of the contributing bands, Angrrsth and Czort. Angrrsth opens the proceedings with ‘Petla’, a muscular and aggressive blast of violent and hostile black metal… Continue Reading →

Toughness – The Prophetic Dawn (Godz Ov War)

Formed in 2020 the first release of this Polish outfit was their ‘Prophecy’ demo out in early 2022, a release as hideous as any you’re likely to hear in death metal as the band unveils their debut full length. All… Continue Reading →

Ketha – Wendigo (Moans Music)

This “soundtrack to a dying world” comes from Polish experimental band Ketha. This is their fourth album release, accompanying a couple of EP’s, one of which is called “#!%16.7”. Imagine walking into a record shop and asking for that one…. Continue Reading →

Behemoth – Opvs Contra Natvram (Nuclear Blast)

If, like me, you have been around for some time within the extreme metal scene then you will be very familiar with the Behemoth discography. In fact I’d even say they have been very consistent since Nergal formed the band… Continue Reading →

Death Denied – Through Waters, Through Flames – Sarcophagus Records

Firstly, apologies to those of the band and their support mechanism who may read this for the tardiness in the review; sometimes real life and work intervenes hard and pushes those things that make life worth living into the background…. Continue Reading →

Sphere – Blood Era (Deformeathing Production)

Blood Era opens with ‘The Age Of Contempt’ which builds with an atmospheric grand musical score before the band kicks in with some brutal and technical uncompromising death metal. Blood Era is overall constructed of nine absolutely devastating and crushing… Continue Reading →

Blues for Neighbors – From Roaming About (Road Rat Records)

“Two guys from Poland making music together since forever. There were many bands and even more music genres, now they sit in a kitchen, smoke cigarettes and worship old ghosts with cursed folk blues notes.” The band description for Polish… Continue Reading →
