This is the second album from US death metallers Sempiternal Dusk.
Following up on 2014’s enjoyable self titled debut record, Sempiternal Dusk’s new album contains 37 minutes of doom-infused death metal. It’s rotten and foul, just how we like it. Continue reading “Sempiternal Dusk – Cenotaph of Defectuous Creation (Review)”
Godeater are a death metal band from the UK and this is their debut album.
This is a raging, angry slab of ferocious modern death metal. It blends modern technicality with significant atmosphere and a melodic sensibility that results in brutally effective songs that stick in the mind like barbed thorns. Continue reading “Godeater – All Flesh Is Grass (Review)”
This is the third album from Greek death metallers Murder Made God.
Here we have 40 minutes of modern death metal, providing a sound that’s meaty and professional. Well-delivered and well-written, Endless Return is an album that impresses on first exposure, but definitely Continue reading “Murder Made God – Endless Return (Review)”
This is the third album from US crusty death metallers Bones.
Sons of Sleaze came out in 2013 and made a mess. Featuring current and ex-members of Usurper, the band clearly had the filthy talents, and now they’re back to make an even bigger mess of things with Diseased. Continue reading “Bones – Diseased (Review)”
This is the fifth album from Coffins, a death metal band from Japan.
I haven’t caught up with Coffins since 2015’s Craving to Eternal Slumber, but of course this highly prolific band have been busy since then on a number of releases. Beyond the Circular Demise is their latest full length, delivering 43 minutes of doom-infused death metal. Continue reading “Coffins – Beyond the Circular Demise (Review)”
This is the second album form US death metallers Eschaton.
It seems like a very long time since 2015’s Sentinel Apocalypse came out – and it is, really – but now Eschaton are back with 34 minutes of new material… Continue reading “Eschaton – Death Obsession (Review)”
This is the second album from US death metallers Visceral Disgorge.
Here we have around 30 minutes of brutal death metal. It’s largely inspired by late 90s/early 00s classic death metal, although this is given a modern makeover and also incorporates some slam elements. Overall, the word for this album is brutal. Brutal Brutal Brutal. Continue reading “Visceral Disgorge – Slithering Evisceration (Review)”
This is the second album from German death metallers Endseeker.
Endseeker play old-school death metal, with a notably Swedish flavour. It’s big, bold, brash, and brutal. Continue reading “Endseeker – The Harvest (Review)”
This is the third album from Nightfall, a US death/doom Metal band.
2014’s The Living Ever Mourn and 2015’s Darkness Evermore were both notable for their character and quality. Unlike the short gap between those two albums, however, we have had to wait considerably longer for A Sanity Deranged. I confess I have been looking forward to hearing this quite a lot. Continue reading “Nightfell – A Sanity Deranged (Review)”
This is the second album from French blackened death metallers Mithridatic.
2016’s Miserable Miracle was heavy and dirty, in a very good way. Blackened death metal of this sort is frequently done poorly, but Mithridatic got the formula right on their debut album. Continue reading “Mithridatic – Tetanos Mystique (Review)”
