Sometimes all you need is death metal. Sometimes, brutal chaos and insane extremity is all that it takes to get you through the day.

Pestilent Reign – Pyres (Review)
This is the debut album from German death metallers Pestilent Reign.
I found myself drawn to this album quite naturally. The band name, their logo, the album cover, it all said to me quite clearly “Listen to me, you will like me…”.

Gutslit – Amputheatre (Review)
This is the second album from Indian death metallers Gutslit.
I have a certain fondness for Gutslit’s 2013 debut album Skewered in the Sewer. This was an extremely enjoyable release that took brutal death metal and injected a Gorerotted-style sense of playful groove and belligerence into it, resulting in a very memorable and effective album that also made it high into my best of 2013 list.
