Tenebrositas is a one-man black metal project from Croatia. This is his latest demo.
I really liked 2015’s Forever Nothing, which was a raw 34 minutes of Norwegian black metal worship that really hit the spot for me. Continue reading “Tenebrositas – Alone in the Frozen Wastelands (Review)”
The Great Old Ones are a black metal band from France and this is their third album.
Boasting a larger and more comprehensive production than ever before on their latest release, The Great Old Ones sound as great as their name implies. Bold, grand and aggressively majestic, EOD: A Tale of Dark Legacy is an album to explore and be afraid of, for the dark delights it contains are not for unwary travellers. Continue reading “The Great Old Ones – EOD: A Tale of Dark Legacy (Review)”
This is the fourth album from Belgian symphonic black metal band Saille.
The band’s third record Eldritch was an enjoyable listen full of sharp aggression and dark symphonics.
Featuring the same amount Continue reading “Saille – Gnosis (Review)”

Are you in the market for some fast, melodic, cutting death metal? Well look no further! Continue reading “From the Shores – Of Apathy (Review)”
Invasion are a death metal band from the US. This is their fourth album.
War metal. What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing. (Say it again).
WAR!
BOOM!
Yes, that’s the level of my humour today I’m afraid… Continue reading “Invasion – Destroyer of Mankind (Review)”
This is The Ritual Aura’s second album. They are an Australian technical death metal band.
Well, hold on to your hat, because you won’t be expecting this.
The Ritual Aura’s 2015 debut album Laniakea was a favourite of mine. At only 26 minutes in length it was a supremely enjoyable blast of cutting-edge death metal. Tæther is, to say the least, a lot more ambitious, lasting over 70 minutes in length. In many ways this seems like a different band altogether. Continue reading “The Ritual Aura – Tæther (Review)”
Morta Skuld are a US death metal band and this is their fifth album.

This is the second album from Irish doom metal band Dread Sovereign.
2014’s All Hell’s Martyrs was an absolute stormer of an album, and definitely one of my favourites from the doom metal genre. After catching them live at last year’s Damnation Festival, I was very excited to eventually hear some new material from the band. Finally, the wait is over. Continue reading “Dread Sovereign – For Doom the Bell Tolls (Review)”
Axis of Despair are a Swedish grindcore band. This is their latest EP.
Okay, so I don’t normally do this, but as an introductory description of Mankind Crawls I’m just going to directly lift the promo blurb –
“Axis of Despair features former and present members of such bands as Nasum, Coldworker, Infanticide, Volturyon, Livet som Insats, Nervgift and Overtorture. To be exact: Continue reading “Axis of Despair – Mankind Crawls (Review)”
This is the eighth album by Combichrist, a Norwegian/US industrial metal band.
Combichrist are one of those bands that I’ve been aware of since they came out, but I’ve always managed to unintentionally avoid listening to. As this is their eighth album I’m quite late to the Combichrist party, but I’m glad I’ve finally experienced their quite personable brand of industrial metal.
