Temptation’s Wings – Skulthor Ebonblade (Review)
This is the debut album from Temptation’s Wings, a doom/heavy metal band from the US.
Think of a Southern metal flavoured mix between Grand Magus, Candlemass, Down and Orange Goblin. Temptation’s Wings have produced an album worthy to be spoken of in the same sentence as these bands, as Skulthor Ebonblade is very enjoyable indeed.

Of the Sun – Before a Human Path (Review)
Of the Sun are a progressive metal band from the US and this is their second album.
This is an interesting brand of progressive metal – Of the Sun essentially take the groove metal of bands like Pantera and Lamb of God and mix it with a bit of modern progressive music that has hints of Gojira, Mastodon and Alice in Chains in it. Continue reading “Of the Sun – Before a Human Path (Review)”
Epi-Demic – Malformed Conscience (Review)
Epi-Demic are a Canadian thrash metal band and this is their second album.
Having very much enjoyed their split with Solanum, I was looking forward to this. They’ve improved on what they accomplished with that split, and the Epi-Demic of 2017 is lean, hungry, and full of relentlessly nasty fun. Continue reading “Epi-Demic – Malformed Conscience (Review)”

Imminence – This Is Goodbye (Review)
Imminence are a Swedish metal band and this is their second album.
The music on this album is surprisingly wide in scope. Taking in everything on the shiny end of the musical spectrum, from stadium rock, alternative metal, modern metal, a bit of djent, and sometimes outright pop influences; Imminence have produced an album of sparkling tunes that thankfully have a bit more to them than just their impressive shine. Continue reading “Imminence – This Is Goodbye (Review)”
