High On Fire – Cometh The Storm (MNRK Heavy)

Oceanlord – Kingdom Cold (Magnetic Eye Records)

Aussie stoner doom merchants, Oceanlord unleash their debut album “Kingdom Cold”. With a story that has become very familiar, the trio put the tracks together during lockdown in their Melbourne home studio. The whole stoner, psyche doom scene is well… Continue Reading →

Megalith Levitation – Void Psalms (Aesthetic Death)

Back in 2020 my ears were pummelled by the split Megalith Levitation did with fellow Russkies Dekonstructor and it served as a great stop gap after the previous year’s debut long player Acid Doom Rites. The trio have been mining the Ural Mountains once more to construct giant slabs… Continue Reading →

Dying Hydra – Of Lowly Origin (Narshardaa Records)

Greek doomsters Acid Mammoth drop their third long player. The band are unabashed Black Sabbath worshippers with a sound as heavy as their name suggests. Formed in 2015, the four-piece have garnered a growing reputation as they continue to build… Continue Reading →

Spelljammer – Abyssal Trip (Riding Easy Records)

It’s been a while since these delicate, white collar smooth hands have had to type anything of note, notwithstanding the trials and tribulations (Excel spreadsheets) of my day job which is as boring, as it is repetitive. So, it’s review… Continue Reading →

Megalith Levitation / Dekonstruktor – Split (Aesthetic Death)

I gotta say that I am not that well versed in Russian metal. For such a vast country with such a huge impact on world history and culture, the red land has not made much of an impression on my listening habits. … Continue Reading →

High On Fire – Electric Messiah (eOne)

To release one monster of an album in 2018 is no mean feat.  To do so with the wait of expectation from a rabid fanbase weighing like a concrete albatross is truly magnificent. For Matt Pike to follow up Sleeps’ “The… Continue Reading →
