DOOM!
DOOOOM!
DOOOOOOOOM!
There, I’ve got that out of my system.
DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

Martyrdöd – List (Review)
Martyrdöd are a hardcore band from Sweden. This is their sixth album.
2014’s Elddop was an enjoyable smashing of hardcore, punk, crust, d-beat and metal. List continues this tradition, providing us with a condensed 36 minutes of furious battering. Continue reading “Martyrdöd – List (Review)”
Doomed – Anna (Review)
This is the fifth album from Doomed, a German doom/death one-man project.
Although Doomed are essentially a one-man band, there are also a plethora of different guests on this release helping to flesh out his vision, (including members of Hail of Bullets, 11th Hour and Camel of Doom, apparently). Some of the guest vocal performances enhance and complement the main delivery of the songs, and once again show what an exciting prospect this band is. Continue reading “Doomed – Anna (Review)”
The Last Ten Seconds of Life – The Violent Sound (Review)
The Last Ten Seconds of Life are a US metal band, this is their third album.
What happens when deathcore runs out of room to expand within its restrictive genre confines and needs to spread its wings into a wider world? The Violent Sound is what happens.
Mixing the heavy, low-end rumble of deathcore with a slice of nu-metal, The Last Ten Seconds of Life have a sound that is largely one of their own in 2016. Continue reading “The Last Ten Seconds of Life – The Violent Sound (Review)”
11Paranoias – Reliquary for a Dreamed of World (Review)
This is the third album from 11Paranoias, a UK sludge/doom band.
The album cover alone makes me feel paranoid, not to mention confused and slightly panicked, and this is before I’ve even pressed play. Continue reading “11Paranoias – Reliquary for a Dreamed of World (Review)”
Black Tomb – Black Tomb (Review)
Black Tomb are a sludge/doom band from the US. This is their debut album.
Black Tomb appear to have congealed out of some dank, dark tar pit with the express purpose of creating bleak, filthy doom metal.
Think of Electric Wizard if they were a Continue reading “Black Tomb – Black Tomb (Review)”
Limbs Bin – Bliss Tech (Review)
Limbs Bin is a one-man US grindcore/noise band. This is his second album.
Okay, well, this is gloriously fucked up. In under five minutes Bliss Tech reveals itself to be a chaotic and anarchic blend of powerviolence, electronics and digital hardcore. Continue reading “Limbs Bin – Bliss Tech (Review)”
Pighead – Until All Flesh Decays (Review)
This is the third album from Pighead, a death metal band from Germany.
Featuring members of Intravenous Contamination, this is brutal death metal that somewhat combines the USDM style, (Suffocation, Deeds of Flesh, Dying Fetus), with a touch of an Aborted flavour in places. It’s brutal, it slams, and it’s a jolly good listen. Continue reading “Pighead – Until All Flesh Decays (Review)”
John, the Void – II (Review)
This is the debut album from Italian post-metallers John, the Void.
The band’s 2014 EP was very well-received by yours truly, so it’s good to see them return with their first full-length. Continue reading “John, the Void – II (Review)”
Ion Dissonance – Cast the First Stone (Review)
Ion Dissonance are a Canadian hardcore/mathcore band. This is their fifth album.
As one of the leading lights in the hardcore/mathcore/whatever scene, Ion Dissonance’s new album certainly has a lot of expectations attached to it. Of course, as you would expect, the band Continue reading “Ion Dissonance – Cast the First Stone (Review)”
