Life Through Torment is 28 minutes of aural thuggery that blends groovy heaviness with savage extremity.
Mixing 90s styled metalcore with elements of modern deathcore, this is Continue reading “I Am – Life Through Torment (Review)”
This is the latest EP by Mexican death metal band Question.
I was suitably impressed with Question’s 2014 debut album Doomed Passages, so it’s good to have some new material from them now.
Doomed Passages was an album that had its own Continue reading “Question – Gnosis Primordial (Review)”
Grave Plague are a US death metal band and this is their debut EP/demo.
With cover artwork and a band name that drew me in like a moth to a flame, I knew I had to listen to this release as soon as I could.

This is the latest EP from Killing Addiction, a death metal band from the US.

Slam! Bash! Death! Crunch! Destroy! Chug! Squeal! Blammo!

This is the second album from Shaarimoth, a blackened death metal band from Norway.
Featuring a member of Gehenna, this is 48 minutes of blackened death metal that’s not for the weak of disposition or persons easily upset.
Listening to Temple of the Adversarial Fire is the aural equivalent of witnessing something you probably shouldn’t. The entire thing reeks of dark, baleful rituals that are probably better left unaired. Continue reading “Shaarimoth – Temple of the Adversarial Fire (Review)”
