Abramelin – Sins Of Thy Father (Hammerheart Records)

I think I am probably one of the few people outside of Australia that has seen this band live, having witnessed their devastating show at Metal For Melbourne in 2017 when I visited the country in January of that year…. Continue Reading →

King – Fury And Death (Soulseller Records)

This Australian band contains members of The Amenta, Fuck I’m Dead, Eaten By Rats, Werewolves, The Red Shore and The Day Everything Became Nothing. With this in mind you would have thought they could have picked a better moniker than… Continue Reading →

The Amenta – Plague Of Locus (Debemur Morti)

Cover albums are not only a good way for a band to express their interests but also can allow them the freedom of expression. I’m stating the obvious here but it all stems down to the choices the band make… Continue Reading →

Werewolves – My Enemies Look and Sound Like Me (Prosthetic Records)

Hmm is this some kind of conspiracy between Ave Noctum’s editor in chief and Prosthetic Records. This is the second album the label are putting out in August by acts that I have previously raved about. Is this being done to put some pep… Continue Reading →

Psycroptic – Divine Council (Prosthetic Records)

When it comes to technical death metal, there are few who match the Tasmanian devils Psycroptic. Hobart natives Dave Hayley and Joe Hayley founded the band in 1999 and from there, the four piece have put out stunning works of… Continue Reading →

Eight years is a long time to wait between albums, the seismic shift in extreme metal can be huge as these Australian industrial death metallers return from their hiatus with a fourth full length. Brandishing an apocalyptic, cataclysmic approach the… Continue Reading →

Werewolves – What a Time to Be Alive (Prosthetic)

Ah the irony of the album title as I sit in lockdown. Even more so as Werewolves are of course Australian and as such are enjoying a lot more freedom than the majority of the planet. Hairy flea-bitten bastards! Annoyingly I cannot hold… Continue Reading →

Norse – The Divine Light of a New Sun (Transcending Obscurity Records)

Black metal is much like a living organism, staying true to its roots while constantly evolving and developing, and many modern day black metal outfits have little in common with the forefathers of this genre. However, these days it is… Continue Reading →

Aborym – SHIFTING.negative (Agonia)

Italian based act Aborym have always been an intriguing band and with their first few albums explored a terrain that mixed black metal with harsh industrial and electronic tones in a way that was not too dissimilar to artists such… Continue Reading →

Ruins – Undercurrent (Listenable Records)

Now, I’m no expert in black metal (or anything else for that matter) but I know a bit and I know what I like. Few black metal bands ‘do it’ for me to be honest, they either sound like they’ve… Continue Reading →

Interview – KING

Australian band KING are all set to make a massive name for themselves, with the release of their debut album ‘Reclaim The Darkness’ through Indie Recordings. A huge, riffed-up celebration of the universe and the wonders around us, that’s as… Continue Reading →
