Tonight’s lineup promised a very entertaining evening out, and it did not disappoint. As a general rule of thumb, if you ever get any chance to see a band like Eyehategod you should take it. Having some quality support bands in tow is simply an added bonus. Continue reading “30th Anniversary Tour – Eyehategod/Dvne/Nomad – Manchester Rebellion, 04/07/18 (Live Review)”

The Agony Scene – Tormentor (Review)
The Agony Scene are a US metal band and this is their fourth album.
Tormentor is the first release from The Agony Scene since 2007’s Get Damned. I always liked this band’s razor-sharp take on modern metal, so it’s great to hear them make a return. Continue reading “The Agony Scene – Tormentor (Review)”
The Night Flight Orchestra – Sometimes the World Ain’t Enough (Review)
The Night Flight Orchestra are a Swedish hard rock band and this is their fourth album.
The Night Flight Orchestra are shockingly good. I mean really, really good. By all rights I shouldn’t like this kind of thing, as it’s not the sort of music I tend to listen to very often, if at all, but something about the execution of this band’s tunes really grabs me hard. Continue reading “The Night Flight Orchestra – Sometimes the World Ain’t Enough (Review)”
Oubliette – The Passage (Review)
Oubliette are a melodic black metal band from the US and this is their second album.
As well as featuring members of bands such as Enfold Darkness and Inferi, Oubliette also have a member of the always impressive Battle Path in their ranks. Oubliette are a somewhat different proposition than the expansive post-metal of the guitarist’s other band, however. Continue reading “Oubliette – The Passage (Review)”

Dvne – Asheran (Review)
Dvne are a progressive metal/doom/sludge band from the UK and this is their debut album.
Here we have a little over 60 minutes of music from a talented UK band that have only just properly come to my attention, despite a friend of mine telling me to check them out when this album was originally released in 2017. It’s definitely my loss, as Asheran is ambitious and huge in all of the best ways. Continue reading “Dvne – Asheran (Review)”
Interview with Vomitile
Vomitile’s third album Pure Eternal Hate brings the death metal – hard, fast, and heavy. There’s no messing around on this release. If you like your death metal relentlessly brutal and delivered with thunderous intensity and groove, Vomitile are the band for you. I like how the band effortlessly combine punishing riffs and drums that drop like bombs, with a decent sense of songwriting and catchiness. Yep, Pure Eternal Hate is on high rotation here at Wonderbox Metal.
I caught up with bassist/vocalist Khatch to discuss all things Vomitile… Continue reading “Interview with Vomitile”
Burial Invocation – Abiogenesis (Review)

If you’re partial to some morbid death metal, with long songs and plenty of sinister atmosphere, then Burial Invocation are a band you are going to want to check out. Continue reading “Burial Invocation – Abiogenesis (Review)”
Cold Snap – All Our Sins (Review)
Cold Snap are a Croatian metal band and this is their fourth album.
I enjoyed Cold Snap’s 2015 album World War 3, which mixed modern metal and metalcore with a rare-these-days helping of nu-metal. Despite how that description probably sounds to some people, it was a recipe I quite enjoyed, so I’m now pleased to give the band’s latest effort a good listen. Continue reading “Cold Snap – All Our Sins (Review)”
