Vulture – Sentinels (Metal Blade)

In recent years there has been a big glut of worship bands, mostly I would say in the realms of Death Metal and Heavy Metal. A number of years prior there was also that big Thrash boom with bands like… Continue Reading →

Exhorder – Defectum Omnium (Nuclear Blast)

It’s only been 5 years since their last offering, so nearly 6 times shorter than the last wait we had to endure. But sadly this time Vinnie LaBella isn’t returning, so it’s just Kyle Thomas from the original line up… Continue Reading →

Suicidal Angels – Profane Prayer (Nuclear Blast)

Greece, a land with a rich history of culture is rightfully seen as a place fruitful in the creation of many fine metal and alternative bands, and thrash metal is no stranger at that. Despite being more acquainted with the… Continue Reading →

Midnight – Hellish Expectations (Metal Blade)

I wrote a review a week or so ago which took me back to listening to Speed Kills as a teen. Well here I am again back in the audio time machine thanks to the one-man maniac project that is… Continue Reading →

Messiah – Christus Hypercubus (High Roller)

Following their return in 2020 with the awesome “Fracmont”, this Swiss Death/Thrash band made a big impact after being away so long, bringing out the glory days of their Noise records releases. However, the band return after some line-up changes,… Continue Reading →

I guess you get it with every genre of music but I always find it strange how odd albums from seemingly underground bands go on to become so highly regarded. Dying Remains by Morta Skuld is such a case. You… Continue Reading →

Innerload – Mater Tenebrarum (Great Dane Records)

If you are going to name your album after one of the Three Mothers then it had damn well best be a work summoning up a sense of malevolent witchery. Based upon the writings of Thomas De Quincey and adapted… Continue Reading →

Morbid Saint – Swallowed By Hell (High Roller Records)

A quick bit of research can help put to rest the alleged claims that Morbid Saint toured with Death, which ironically is what they have garnered a degree of their cult following from. In actuality the band only played a… Continue Reading →

Apparition – Fear The Apparition (F.D.A. Records)

This debut album by Spain’s Apparition has already had a release on Headsplit records in July of 2023 on cassette and CD, as I suspect the German label has picked it up for a further CD issue and of course… Continue Reading →

Master – Saints Dispelled (Hammerheart Records)

Little breaks can be a good thing, for example I am now back from a year long hiatus from reviewing. Rather interestingly this first review I have chosen is from Master who themselves have had a bit of a break… Continue Reading →

Lipid – The Perfect Killing Machine (Great Dane Records)

The family who play together slay together. Well that could well be the case here as I note that three members of this Perfect Killing Machine share the same surname. Active firstly as Naracus since 95 and then as Lipid,… Continue Reading →
