Eternal Idol - Behind a Vision - (8/10) - Frontiers Music srl

They are straight to the point, nothing goes over 5 minutes, it's pull no punches in your face Metal. It's something that is not akin to the Symphonic Metal genre, so that's quite the departure from the usual standards. I felt it was a great way to stand out from…

Overvald - Vigarv - (6/10) - Independent

Vigarv is a twelve minute, four track assault from a three person collective carving their own path through the extreme underground. Entirely self-written, self-recorded, and independently released, this marks their second EP. Raw, unapologetic, and chaotic, it channels a visceral blend of death met...

Stereophobia - "Choke on This" - (6/10) - Eclipse Records

I can’t say STEREOPHOBIA has won me over, but they did get me to listen for more than an hour and more than once.

Lorquin's Admiral - Lorquin's Admiral - (6/10) - Argonauta Records

LORQUIN’S ADMIRIAL is notable for its musicianship and Dawn Brown’s vocals. There’s some nice chemistry there.

Sallow Moth - Mossbane Lantern - (8/10) - I, Voidhanger Records

This album was definitely a collection of out of the box songwriting. Their musicianship is off the charts…somewhere deep in the pacific. Much of the music was razor sharp, cold, even sterile, but there were moments when the album breathed. This was a technical feat that you rarely come across…

Nighthawk - Six Three 0 - (8/10) - Mighty Music

What started as a creative project from five of Sweden's finest musicians quickly moulded into a fully fledged band. Following three critically acclaimed albums which were recorded at studios such as the iconic Abbey Road Studios ,Night Hawk start a new chapter in their journey with “Six Three O.....

Amphisbaena - Rift - (8/10) - I, Voidhanger Records

This was a curious album, that felt a bit unfinished for me, and perhaps that is the point. The past and the future make up someone’s life, and that is a difficult, lengthy story to tell. In the end, maybe our lives don’t really amount to much, or at least,…

Creatvre - Toujours Humain - (10/10) - I, Voidhanger Records

“Tourjous Humain” is a searing slab of metal, grinding forward like a rusted machine coming alive in a storm, its engine built on distortion, repetition, and complex tasks. What makes this record more than just a wall of sonic abrasion is the strange humanity that breathes through its fractured ...
