This is the second album from Scalpel, a death metal band from the US.
We haven’t heard much from Scalpel since 2013’s Sorrow and Skin. This was one of the earliest reviews I ever did, (as you can probably gather by reading it), so the band have always stuck in my mind. It’s great to catch up with them almost four years later. My, where does the time go? Continue reading “Scalpel – Methods to Delusion (Review)”
Unseen Faith are a deathcore band from Denmark and this is their debut album.
This is deathcore that’s brutal and dark, but not without melodic or atmospheric elements that help save the band from one-dimensional obscurity. Continue reading “Unseen Faith – Waver (Review)”

Balance of Terror play brutal death metal with lashings of grindcore thrown in to really help them make a mess. Continue reading “Balance of Terror – World Laboratory (Review)”

Goatwhore are a black/death metal band from the US and this is their seventh album.
Not only is this a band with just an amazing name, but ever since they first coalesced into existence around members of stunning personal favourites Soilent Green and Acid Bath, I’ve always had an incredible soft spot for Goatwhore. Continue reading “Goatwhore – Vengeful Ascension (Review)”
Dying Fetus are a US death metal institution and this is their eighth album.
Dying Fetus are a band that have never released a bad album. In fact, I’d argue that they have only ever released great albums. Continue reading “Dying Fetus – Wrong One to Fuck With (Review)”
This is the debut album from UK death metal act Beyond Grace.
It seems like ages since 2014’s Monstrous was unleashed on the world, showing much promise for the future. Well, that promise has now appeared and coalesced in the form of Seekers. Continue reading “Beyond Grace – Seekers (Review)”
Maou Mindu are a deathgrind band from Canada and this is their debut EP.
Gotta love deathgrind. Taking the direct, lethal assault of grindcore and combining it with the extra depth that death metal can allow, it frequently marries the two together in strong and sexy ways. In the case of Maou Mindu, the results are very sexy indeed. Continue reading “Maou Mindu – Grind Against Humanity (Review)”
