Band: Embryonic Devourment
Location: Willist, California
Genre: Technical/Brutal Death Metal
Album: Prime Specimens
Themes: Anunnaki, Reptilians, Aliens, David Icke, Secret societies, Other realities, N.W.O
Release date: Dicember 30th, 2023
Label: Desidarius Recordings
Recording, Mixing and Mastering: Hunter Peterson
Artwork: Jon Zig.

Prime Specimens is the fifth full-length album by American band Embryonic Devourment, which employs a mix of Technical Death Metal and Brutal Death Metal that is very visceral, powerful, devastating, and of a high compositional level in its musical structures and that denote the virtuosity of each of the members with their instruments, as well as the ingenuity to adapt to their own environment in terms of lyrical themes, since they undoubtedly have a wide selection of themes on which they focus to brainstorm and shape their own amorphous imagination.

This latest release in their discography is more of a detailed compilation of certain musical themes they've released over more than 20 years in the metal scene in their country and around the world, bringing back some songs from their first three full-length albums: Fear of Reality Exceeds Fantasy, Vivid Interpretations of the Void, and Reptilian Agenda. These songs total 10 and are divided as follows:

1. Darken Thy Fluids - from their second album, Vivid Interpretations of the Void

2. Reptiliphiliac - from their third album, Reptilian Agenda

3. Blood Gift - (Reptilian Agenda)

4. Eating the Flesh of Gods - from their first album, Fear of Reality Exceeds Fantasy

5. Fear of Reality Exceeds Fantasy - (self-titled album)

6. Challenging All Forma of Hope - (Reptilian Agenda)

7. Eye of the Horomatangi - (Vivid Interpretations of the Void)

8. Cleasing The Infinite - (Vivid Interpretations Of The Void)

9. Militarized Reptoids - (Vivid Interpretations Of The Void)

10. Sealed With Resin - (Reptilian Agenda)

Obviously, they restructured the musical format in some songs to make them more compact or also adding more duration to accommodate certain new ideas, also taking into account the remastering in its quality to sound better or more visceral. This being a remastered compilation that weighs heavily in terms of their discography, since they have a certain peculiarity of creating very technical and difficult songs in their construction but that sound like pure forceful blows of auditory brutality, whether due to their overly technical or heavy guitar riffs that give a somewhat strange approach to the structure of their songs, a very punctual bass in their sound that dismembers your sense of hearing, a crushing drum that does not stop only in certain rhythmic passages that sterilize the feeling of their incessant tapping and what we can say about the guttural vocals that in a certain way speaking of these, they have known how to arrange them in an abnormal way so that they sound more stuck and in a more voluminous way.

I honestly enjoyed this material because in one way or another I had to apply myself to the complete discography of the band to get a clearer idea of ​​who the members that make up Embryonic Devourment really are, although perhaps the fact that they have had changes in their lineup may have changed the compositional scheme over the years, but that does not detract from the great career they have had for more than 20 years in the extreme music scene called Metal and more from the location where these guys come from, taking them to the label Unique Leader Records with their fourth studio album Heresy Of The Highest Order, which also had a great reception from the band's fans and the new ones that joined thanks to it. But anyway, this latest material Prime Specimens is a very enjoyable album that sounds so brutal and technical that it hooks you from beginning to end throughout 35 minutes, giving you the perfect dose of good high-end Technical Brutal Death Metal.

Without further ado, I'll sign off by simply advising you to go listen to it. If you want to know more about them, check out their social media and the music platforms where their albums are available so you'll be as surprised as I was when I discovered them. I'm eagerly awaiting new material from them and what new brutality they offer us in the near future.

Featuring songs: Eating The Flesh Of Gods, Fear Of Reality Exceeds Fantasy, Challenging All Forms Of Hope, Cleansing The Infinite, Militarized Reptoids.

Band: Fear Catalyst
Location: Aguascalientes, Aguascalientes
Genre: Melodic Death Metal
Album: Atrabilis
Themes: Mental Problems, Introspection, Depression, Anxiety, Existentialism.
Release date: May 5th, 2022
Label: Mexican Steel Prods
Recording: Andrei Serna
Mixing and Mastering: Adrián Ramos of TuskStudio.
Covert art: Julio Rivera of Arktopus.

Atrabilis is the debut album by Fear Catalyst, a band from Aguascalientes, Mexico, known for their devastating, modern melodic death metal. Their musical approach revolves around personal themes, whether mental health issues, introspection, existentialism, depression, or anguish, embracing a synergy in the corporeal expression of the melodic sound of death metal and bringing it to life in a visceral way.

This material shows this off, with mind-blowing passages of pure sonic aggression but taking it hand in hand with well-planned melodic parts in the structural body of their songs, molding it to their own style and executing a Death Metal that powerfully erodes the feelings printed in each musical note that come out of the instruments involved, rhythmic guitars in time with the melodies, a bass with a defined presence, a drum that attacks in a violent way but at the same time knows how to carry out the transitions between the melodic fragments and, let's say, the guttural ones that are conjugated between the two sides of that type of voice, the heartbreaking and the guttural. Musically speaking, Atrabilis is an album that sounds very good in its production, this being the first studio album that the band composed, with a quality in accordance with the genre of music they play, stuck but also beautiful in its melodies.

Fear Catalyst worked hard to achieve their long-held desire to compose their own music and capture it on a full-length album, with ups and downs along the way, but with one main objective in mind: to be part of their country's metal scene. I have no hesitation in saying that this album was the first breath of fresh air for the guys in this band, considering their upcoming album and whatever else lies ahead in their promising future.

I sincerely hope to hear their next album soon and see how they've evolved over all this time. Even when the days are sometimes gray, the sun also rises to light everyone's path. I'll just say this: Mexican metal is a powerhouse in the world, and Fear Catalyst is one of the bands aiming to be part of it. So go and listen to Atrabilis; you won't regret it.

Featuring songs: A Place To Scream, Run For Cover, Anesthesia For The Mind, Torch The Sky, Void.

Band: Shadow Of Intent
Location: Connecticut / Rhode Island
Genre: Symphonic/Melodic Deathcore
Album: Imperium Delirium
Themes: Death, Depression, War, Darkness
Release date: June 27th, 2025
Label: Unsigned/independent
Producer, Engineering: Chris Wiseman
Mixing, Mastering: Dave Otero
Mixing: Mike Low (Assistant)
Production: Blake Mullens (additional on track 2)
Engineering Drums: Greg Thomas, Chris Teti
Covert Art: Dan Seagrave
Engineering: Ben Duerr.

Infinitum Delirium is the fifth full-length album by American band Shadow of Intent, who employ a symphonic style in their compositions, laced with powerful, eardrum-shattering melodic deathcore. A band that knows how to create high-quality, independent music, utilizing a myriad of atmospheric elements that give their song structures a more epic dimension.

The theme that revolves around this new material is denoted in the simple fact of visualizing a latent darkness in a cataclysm of death that is linked to the deepest thoughts that a human being can have, combined with an energetic, powerful, be***al musical aura and its melodic touch. While the chaotic atmospheres of the symphonic parts provide the structural body of each of the 12 songs included in this material, we realize that by combining the characteristic elements of Melodic Deathcore they create an amalgam of auditory passages that give you an extra dose of adrenaline, since this conjunction of sounds executed at a high level of composition help the listener better understand the theme and the rhythmic sound that revolves around Infinitum Delirium, an album that exudes a technical structure, chaotic atmospheres, dark symphonies, enveloping melodies and a high dose of pure brutality.

This new album perfectly embodies the compositional growth that the members of Shadow of Intent have gained through their experience. This band was formed with the simple ideal of creating music they love, without pressure from anyone else, simply for the sake of making something that truly comes alive in their minds. I admire the maturity with which they've evolved, although I still say that Primordial is the debut I'll hold closest to my heart, but that's a very personal matter. Infitum Delirium is a work of art that these musicians are bringing us in this half of 2025, an album loaded with excessive auditory testosterone that fully impacts the listener's senses.

Without further ado, I will simply say this: judge for yourselves this great album, listen to it in detail and appreciate the effort that went into achieving a work of this high caliber in terms of musical quality.

Featuring songs: Flying The Black Flag, Infinity of Horrors, Mechanical Chaos, Feeding The Meatgrinder, Apocalypse Canvas, Imperium Delirium.

Band: Obey The Walrus
Location: Ciudad de México, Pachuca.
Genre: Progressive/Post-Metal
Album: MISSHAPEN
Themes: Consciousness, Inner struggles, Suffering.
Release date: March 19th, 2025
Label: Unsigned/independent
Arranger:
Mixing and Mastering: ALIEN HOUSE
Booklet:

MISSHAPEN is the debut EP of the Mexican band Obey The Walrus, which proposes in its musical elaboration a mixture of Metal genres ranging from progressive, death, post, djent, etc. If we can attribute it to our own interpretation it would be a Progressive/Post-Metal due to the type of sound that is carried out in its structure at the time of composing, loaded with particularly atmospheric elements in a certain way but having that progressive touch that gives more weight to its music.

Musically speaking, this debut EP is so vivid that you can feel every emotion permeated by a subtle aroma of freshness rooted in the six tracks included in this album. The harmony between each of the instruments reflects the commitment these guys have when making music, complemented by atmospheric passages that revolve around their passive or sentimental themes, executing progression and technicality with a high-quality sound that fills the structural body of each song. This is accompanied by a rhythm of vocals, both guttural and clean, that beautifully embellish the passing minutes of these five lyrical tracks.

While this material is just a small demonstration of the musical drive these guys are reaching, it doesn't sound bad. On the contrary, by including a female voice in two of their songs and the saxophone in another, they create a mix of organic, harmonic sounds with a melody that leaves you expecting the sound emitted by each of the other instruments linked with that type of approach they had with their guest musicians.

Obey The Walrus bring us a record that's worth listening to from start to finish, with magnificent quality and beautifully executed. I'd just say that I hope to hear a full-length album from them someday, and I hope that, as a group of excellent musicians from Mexico, they continue their momentum as they join the ranks of the very best bands in the world and in the extreme metal music industry.

Featuring songs: Our Stories Fall Apart, Delta, Bullets.
Bonus: The Joy Of Knowledge

Band: Erebor
Location: Durham, Durham, England
Genre: Technical Progressive Death Metal
Album: Infinitus Somnium
Themes: Anti-thiesm, H.P. Lovecraft, Social Injustice
Release date: July 4th, 2025
Label: Unaligned/independent
Recording: Erebor and Ritual Studios
Mixing and Mastering: Ritual Studios
Art work: Erskine Designs.

Infinitus Somnium is the second full-length album by the English band Erebor, a band that implements a musical style somewhere between Technical and Progressive Death Metal in a unique way, with everything that comes with both genres: well-structured technicality, an evolution in the progressiveness of their rhythms, combined into a heavy yet melodic sound, creating harmony and an unparalleled vibe in each of their compositions.

Musically speaking, this new album represents the evolution of their original sound, maturing in a surprising way, denoting punctuality in the quality and structural form of the songs included. The songs are minutes long, yet know how to maintain the rhythm and create melodies that intertwine with each other in each of the instruments involved, creating dense, subtle, natural, and heavy atmospheres. Even though they are only 3 songs that in their entirety last a total of almost 43 minutes in their ex*****on, they feel so alive and organic that they simply leave you stunned by such passages of subtle sounds, climactic atmospheres, progressive riffs, gutturals well executed in accordance with the moment and when chaos has to be unleashed, it happens in such a visceral and technical way that they combine very well in the appearance of each song, providing it with elements that in the ex*****on come together to create something unique and precious.

Infinitus Somnium is a beautiful album, and I can't find a single flaw in its musical approach, even in its specific themes; it's well done. I feel like the four years it took to release this new album was enough time to fully focus on improving their debut and, as a band, see how they can achieve even greater heights in the realm of extreme music called Metal.

Without a doubt, this new album surprised me greatly, in a way I didn't expect. Listening to these three songs fills me with life, and I keep thinking, every time I listen to them, that they couldn't have been better. They've matured together in a superb way, creating something so wonderful on their second full-length, which will be one of my favorites this year.

All that remains for me to say is that Erebor is back with an album that shouldn't go unnoticed, but rather, it should be listened to and treated as what it is: a complete beauty from start to finish, coming from a band that doesn't have a specific record label, but rather they simply create their own independent music, and that's why they're a great band that has managed to improve over time and in the right way.

Featuring songs: Infinitus Somnium I - The Endeavour, Infinitus Somnium II - The Tower, Infinitus Somnium III - The Apotheosis.

Band: Disrupted
Location: Santiago de Querétaro, Querétaro
Genre: Death Metal
Album: Chasm of Eternity
Themes: Madness, Society, Universe
Release date: July 1st, 2025
Label: Concreto Records
Recording, Mixing, Mastering: Gustavo Maldonado and Darío Mondragón in Magma Audio
Art work: Saddam SaFrasi.

Chasm of Eternity is the third full-length album by the band from Querétaro, Mexico Disrupted, which sees the light in these instances of 2025 after 6 years without having new material from their part, trying to fit the pieces of the machine of devastation in all this time and bringing to the ranks of Mexican Metal one more piece of art thanks to the effort and support that the band has had.

This new material revolves around the perpetual descent into the abyss of human existence, which traverses destructive and inhospitable cycles, forming a constant confrontation between vanity and guilt, with ego as the main fuel for this gloom. Each track is a fragment in the exploration of the self-destructive nature of human beings, a sonic portrait of eternal recurrence, the condemnation to repeat the same mistakes, and the false perception of the passage of time in a never-ending loop.

The musical expression most appropriate for this theme revolves around the raw form of composing a Death Metal capable of delving into the human psyche, with heavy, dynamic, fast, and even technical riffs, also involving those devices towards Thrash Metal with its violent way of generating noise that solves a cesspool of self-destructive thoughts that human beings can have due to vanity or egocentrism. The 10 tracks involved in this new material are tinged with a particularly melodic way that gives more body to the structure of the songs, being a wealth of sonic elements that sound in a powerful and be***al way. All the instruments involved sound so good that each one of them is clearly distinguished and does not suffocate the voice, but on the contrary, it is on that plane in which everything fits perfectly.

Honestly speaking, Disrupted is a band that has made a name for itself in the ranks of Mexican metal, and now, after six years, they're finally back with all the power that characterizes them. A band respected and beloved by fans in their country, more than one of us will be delighted with this grand return, just as I honestly expected.

All that's left for me to say is, listen to Chasm of Eternity, the comeback album that the guys from Disrupted have brought us with effort, perseverance, dedication, and a whole lot of balls. You won't regret listening to it, purchasing it, and having it at the top of the best Mexican Metal of 2025.

"Humanity without awareness of its end consumes itself."

Band: Cryptopsy
Location: Montréal, Quebec
Genre: Brutal/Technical Death Metal
Album: An Insatiable Violence
Themes: Horror, Blasphemy, Gore, Death, Mutilation, Insanity, Murder
Release date: June 20th, 2025
Label: Season of Mist
Producer, Engineering, Mixing, Mastering: Christian Donaldson
Art work: Martin Lacroix (R.I.P. 2024)

An Insatiable Violence is the ninth full-length nightmare from one of the most iconic bands in Canada and around the world, Cryptopsy. They create brutal, technical music that evokes death in endless rhythms that slowly tear at your eardrums and make your head shake. A band that has made a name for itself over three decades in the extreme music business.

This new material is a jewel of the technical brutality that the gentlemen of Cryptopsy are bringing this year. Without a doubt, their music has always been a talking point in the medium or in the field of what is Metal, having ups and downs like any band, but without neglecting their versatility, their ingenuity, their vast experience and some fu***ng balls to be able to add one more aberration to the list of their heartbreaking discography. This material revolves around the little mindset that a person has in which they spend the day building a machine, only to have it torture them throughout the night to whatever degree it likes. In fact, they like being tortured so much that, in the morning, they wake up rejuvenated, wanting to perfect the machine until it works perfectly in their mind, this being a masochistic way of wanting to inflict pain on themselves.

Musically speaking, An Insatiable Violence is a very heavy album, a meticulously composed and enviable quality material, denoting each of the instruments involved. Polished, fast, and violent riffs, along with some solos that match the dynamism between songs, a thunderous bass that explodes with every strum, drums like a demolition machine that crushes everything in its path, and gutturals that either tear at the soul or suffocate it. Without a doubt, this new material is pure technical brutality from beginning to end, and nothing else is asked of it, simply that it be this kind of madness that provokes satisfaction when you hear it.

The truth is, I'm surprised by the fact that despite some small setbacks and a long wait of years to adjust the torture machinery, Cryptopsy has managed to overcome the repudiation that was felt towards them since their previous release, demonstrating that they continue on this inhospitable path and continuing to live up to the banner of what the band's name is. Likewise, we have the pillar of the group, the incomparable Mr. Flo Munier, who, as far as we know, has implemented new composition techniques for his instrument, due to his vast musical experience that he has had in his career as a musician during all these years, bringing us something unparalleled for fans around the world, and for us to know how to appreciate it.

This album is so significant to the band that the cover art was done by one of their former vocalists, the artist Martin Lacroix, who unfortunately is no longer with us today but left behind this last nightmare on canvas for the delight of the masses and a legacy within Cryptopsy. They also had another vocalist, Mike DiSalvo, who lent his voice to track number 7, but well, it's these moments included in this new material that give it more feeling, so to speak, an album that involves so much and that should be praised.

All that remains for me to say is that An Insatiable Violence is made simply for the pure and simple pleasure of torture. Cryptopsy is a guarantee of 100% brutality, delivering a worthy, polished, brutal, and superb album from start to finish.

Featuring songs: Until There's Nothing Left, Dead Eyes Replete, The Art of Emptiness, Embrace the Nihility.

Band: Cerebral Miasma
Location: Pachuca, Hidalgo
Genre: Technical Death Metal
Album: 5150
Themes: Assassins, Murders
Release date: Octuber 31st, 2024
Artwork, design: Artem Astaroth
Artwork, design: Alex Snow
Producer: Ali Rebollar ALIEN HOUSE

5150 is the full-length album debut of the group Cerebral Miasma from Pachuca, Hidalgo. This band consolidated in 2021 after several changes in its lineup, with this material being their most solemn work produced thanks to the effort and perseverance of each of its members.

This material revolves around the Technical Death Metal genre with its very meticulous structures, exceptional dynamism and brutality that would be expected from a band dedicated to implementing this type of genre, but not only that, their music can be composed of a violent Grindcore in certain parts or in a certain way giving it more seasoning when composing their works and bringing them to ex*****on.

Musically speaking, 5150 is an album with a lot of sound in the aspect that it can include symphonic atmospheres that endow in a certain way the body of each of the 8 songs included in this material, being a tangible form of effects that accompany the gloomy melodies that tend towards psychological horror and that undoubtedly trap you in an area of ​​latent but mental suffering, something that I particularly enjoy a lot, since these guys compose in a violent, brutal and technical way but they do not leave aside that melodic part that can give more meaning to what they do, being a specifically special score so that an amalgam of environmental, orchestral and vitality effects is formed.

Without a doubt, Cerebral Miasma is a project that, thanks to its great effort to stay ahead in the field of extreme music called Metal, has been able to carry the weight of what they are doing and I firmly believe that with time they will give us more surprises and we should be on the lookout for it.

I'm leaving with just the following message: listen to 5150, the debut album of a Mexican project that shouldn't be missed by all those metal music fans, especially considering the excellent proposals from bands that exist in Mexico and continue to grow, such as Cerebral Miasma.

Featuring songs: Go Beyond (yourself) Pt. I, Go Beyond (The system) Pt. II, Go Beyond (Hopelessness) Pt. III, World's Gore.
Bonus: La finestra nera (intermezzo) - instrumental version.

Band: OPHIOLATRY
Location: Pindamonhangaba, São Paulo
Genre: Death Metal
Album: Serpent's Verdict
Themes: Satanism, Blasphemy, Anti-Christianity, Death
Release date: June 6th, 2025
Label: Wormholedeath
Photography: Kevin Eisenlord
Photography: Anderson Hildebrando
Recording, Mixing, Producer: Diego Santiago
Mastering: Dan Swanö.

Serpent's Verdict is the third full-length album by Brazilian band Ophiolatry, a group that reformed with new members, leaving only one of the original founders, Jhorge "Dog" Duarte. This new material changes the formula of what the band was doing before, now playing a more stylized Death Metal, so to speak, and lowering the decibels a bit from their former extreme way of composing songs, since the album itself is a 360-degree turn that hits the listener's mind with impeccable ex*****on quality and a production capable of making you feel each of the instruments involved in this new material when listening to it.

This means that it gives more dynamism to their music, having more maturity in the way they create new songs with more emphasis on production, adding a little more orchestral-type arrangements or instrumental settings that include atmospheres that embellish the production of said material in a certain way. The album explores the ambition between Modern and Technical Death Metal; they are two strands in which pride, ambition, desire, and the power to believe that you can improve with the passage of time come together, and that it should be that way, not staying stagnant on a single path to follow.

The album includes 13 new songs that took approximately 17 years to see the light since their last composed material, without a doubt the wait has not been in vain, I firmly believe that this new material lives up to being seen as a new beginning for the band and that it opens the way for them to continue exploring their new style of music, which is not far from the previous one but is a big change, for better or for worse. Experimentation is not too much, however you also have to know how to execute it and this band has all the power to achieve it, change can bring new currents and analyzing this I could say that Serpent's Verdict is an album worthy of the name that reflects the band both in their country and in the world.

I just have to tell the fans of the band Ophiolatry in their home country and around the world to give this material a chance, as it might surprise them.

Featured songs: Jesus Complex, Revenge, Serpent's Spits, Apophis, Narcissistic Victim Syndrome, Human Factory.

Ophiolatry Line-up:
