Sigh – Graveward (Candlelight)

Warning may contain nuts! Yes and it’s rather nutty stories that have helped pave the way towards Japanese loons Sigh’s tenth album. Founding member and guitarist Shinichi Ishikawa was removed from the line up due to the fact that apparently… Continue Reading →

Sigihl – Trauermärsche (And a Tango upon the World’s Grave) (Arachnophobia)

I was really expecting obsidian blackness from this Polish band and that’s what I got but with it a whole lot more. This is a debut album from the band who contain members of the much lauded Outre as well… Continue Reading →

Necrophagia – Whiteworm Cathedral (Season Of Mist)

Well this album has been a real horror story for Killjoy and his shock troops. Whiteworm Cathedral should have been out a couple of years ago but has been held up in litigation hell. Finally though it is time for… Continue Reading →

Madmans Esprit – Nacht (ATMF)

We should be used to the weird and wonderful emerging from the Far East by now. But South Korea’s Madmans Esprit still manage to sound like they discovered the idea with a strange and beautiful blend of metal that exists… Continue Reading →

Zothique – The Shadow Of Linxia (SR)

Lurk – Kaldera (Doomentia)

Doomentia records release the oozing toxic mulch of Lurk in the guise of Kaldera. This is their sophomore release after a self-titled album on TotalRust in 2012. These Finns don’t like labels and at first listen I can see why…. Continue Reading →

The Meads Of Asphodel – Sonderkommando (Candlelight)

I was told about this album on chatting to Metatron about The Meads Of Asphodel’s last contentious album ‘The Death Of Jesus The Jew.’ As it is Easter I really should be giving this a spin but everything is concentrated… Continue Reading →

VA – Voices From Valhalla: A Tribute To Bathory (Godreah)

I always look forward to getting things from cottage industry label Godreah. They do things the old way, putting out quality instead of quantity in the form of both eclectic bands and compilation discs. Like their Hawkwind tribute, the title… Continue Reading →

Sigh – In Somniphobia

Artist: Sigh Title: In Somniphobia Type: Album Label Candlelight It’s always a great pleasure to be confronted with a new Sigh album but the Japanese maestros do make us work for it by twisting any preconceived notions around and turning… Continue Reading →
