Visigoth are without doubt, (in my humble opinion at least), one of the best of the current crop of traditional heavy metal bands. They have all of the requisite aspects and elements that make a great heavy metal band, and all of this has been realised in the band’s latest album Conqueror’s Oath. If you haven’t yet checked it out then do so immediately!
I had the great pleasure to ask the band’s guitarist Leeland Campana a few questions, so let’s get to know Visigoth and their latest album a bit more… Continue reading “Interview with Visigoth”
Dagger Lust are a black metal/grind/noise band from the US and this is their debut album.
Featuring members of Triumvir Foul and Witch Vomit, Dagger Lust play ugly, underground black metal that’s been further polluted with murky grindcore and barbed noise. It’s relentlessly nasty and completely unwholesome. Continue reading “Dagger Lust – Siege Bondage Adverse to the Godhead (Review)”
Depravity are an Australian death metal band and this is their debut album.
Featuring a member of Impiety/The Furor, this is 40 minutes of 90s-inspired death metal. Morbid Angel fans in particular should pay attention, but this is really for any fan of bands such as Continue reading “Depravity – Evil Upheaval (Review)”
Møl are a post-black metal band from Denmark and this is their debut album.
This is 42 minutes of atmospheric and emotive blackgaze. Taking a base of sharp, modern black metal and incorporating into it an obvious love of shoegaze’s ethereal intensity, Jord is a double-edged sword, promising both salvation and damnation. Continue reading “Møl – Jord (Review)”
Wolf King are a blackened hardcore band from the US and this is their debut album.
Ahh, this is precisely the kind of adrenaline shot you need when…well, whenever really. With the dark, invigorating energy that comes off this thing in waves you could power one of the cities of Hell, I’m sure. Continue reading “Wolf King – Loyal to the Soil (Review)”
Tons are an Italian doom/sludge metal band and this is their second album.
Characterised by huge riffs and acidic vocals, Filthy Flowers of Doom is aptly named in many ways, delivering 38 minutes of sludgy doom. Continue reading “Tons – Filthy Flowers of Doom (Review)”
Abjection Ritual are a US industrial doom band and this is their third album.
With an enigmatic, yet enticing album cover, this release drew me in like a moth to a flame. With a few varying and slightly contradictory descriptions of what was contained on this release, I wasn’t quite sure what to expect before pressing play, but knew this was something I wanted to explore. What I found was an unexpected and engaging album. Continue reading “Abjection Ritual – Soul of Ruin, Body of Filth (Review)”
This is the seventh album from Glorior Belli, a French black metal band, (essentially a one man band with hired help).
It’s always great to hear something new from this charismatic and individual band, and here we have 47 minutes of new material.
If you’re not familiar with Glorior Belli’s work, (check out Gators Rumble, Chaos Unfurls and Sundown (the Flock That Welcomes)), this is a band that Continue reading “Glorior Belli – The Apostates (Review)”
Neolithic are a US death metal/crust band and this is their latest EP.
Mixing classic d-beat crust with the uglier side of death metal, this is 8 minutes of pitch-black fury and aggression. Continue reading “Neolithic – Cult of Ignorance (Review)”
