Nyn are a technical/progressive death metal band and this is their second album.
Normally a solo project, the main-man-behind-the-band has been joined by others on this release, helping to flesh out his sound even further than previously. Continue reading “Nyn – Entropy: (of Chaos and Salt) (Review)”
This is the debut EP from Italian death metallers Krypta.
This is a short and enjoyable EP that’s inspired by the Swedish style. At just under 18 minutes in length, it’s long enough to get your teeth into, but short enough to leave you wanting more. Continue reading “Krypta – In Torment (Review)”
Full of Hell are a US grindcore band, and this is their fifth album, (or third, if you don’t count their collaborative ones).
Full of Hell play grindcore that’s both primitive and innovative. Combing death metal, powerviolence, punk, crust, harsh electronics, and noise into a gruesomely violent and nasty grindcore package, Full of Hell are Continue reading “Full of Hell – Trumpeting Ecstasy (Review)”
This is Deny the Urge’s third album. They’re from Germany and play death metal.
Deny the Urge’s debut album Subsequent Confrontation was a real underground gem of an album, but now, well over a decade later, it’s like listening to a different band. Which is understandable when you take a look at the Continue reading “Deny the Urge – As Darkness Falls (Review)”
This is the third album from US death metallers Soul Remnants.
Ouroboros is the follow up to the crushingly enjoyable pitch-black slab of metal that was the band’s 2013 album Black and Blood, which made it into my best of 2013 end of year list. Continue reading “Soul Remnants – Ouroboros (Review)”
Expulsion are a US grindcore band and this is their debut release.
Consisting of members of bands such as Exhumed and Repulsion, (presumably where the name Expulsion came from?), as well as Gruesome, Intronaut, Phobia, and Lightning Swords of Death, it’s safe to say that there’s a wealth of experience that’s gone into this release.
Decapitated are a Polish death metal band and this is their seventh album.
I’ve always really enjoyed Decapitated’s work, and this latest album is no exception, despite the band being quite a different proposition to the one that produced albums that were techdeath stunners like The Negation. Continue reading “Decapitated – Anticult (Review)”
After two decades of existence extreme metallers Goatwhore show no sign of wear and tear as they’ve just released what’s possibly their best and most well-rounded album to date – Vengeful Ascension. If you haven’t heard it yet then I strongly urge you to check it out as it’s quite the corker.
Drummer Zack Simmons talked to us a bit about the new album… Continue reading “Interview with Goatwhore”
This is the seventh album from US death metallers Origin.
Origin play technical/brutal death metal that’s ultra-controlled, while also somehow seemingly a pure explosion of chaos and frenzy. Continue reading “Origin – Unparalleled Universe (Review)”
This is the fourth album by Execration, a Norwegian death metal band.
I’m a huge fan of Execration’s third album Morbid Dimensions, and it even made the number two slot on my best of 2014 end of year list, so stuffed full of technical/progressive death metal goodness was it. Continue reading “Execration – Return to the Void (Review)”
