Broken Hope are a US death metal band and this is their seventh album.
Veteran death metallers Broken Hope are unleashed on the world once more. Hell yeah! I’ve always had a soft spot for Broken Hope, and Mutilated and Assimilated has just brutally smashed that soft spot so that it’s now just a gory mess.

This is US death metal band Triumvir Foul’s second album.
I like Triumvir Foul. I like Triumvir Foul a lot. Their debut release An Oath of Fire and Blood was something quite notable, but then they went and unleashed their monstrous self-titled debut album that was on another level entirely. Continue reading “Triumvir Foul – Spiritual Bloodshed (Review)”
This is the debut album from Contaminated, an Australian death metal band.
After 2014’s debut demo Pestilential Decay, I couldn’t miss out on the band’s first full-length. Also, Continue reading “Contaminated – Final Man (Review)”
This is the second album from Greek metal band Kin Beneath Chorus.
This is modern death metal with both metalcore and deathcore influences. Add to this a melodic delivery and atmospheric elements, and you have an album that succeeds in having a firm emotive base to its heart of aggression. Continue reading “Kin Beneath Chorus – Invia (Review)”
The Voynich Code are a Portugese modern death metal/deathcore band and this is their debut album.

Unaussprechlichen Kulten are a death metal band from Chile and this is their fourth album.
This is dark, Lovecraft-inspired death metal from a band we’ve met before with 2014’s wickedly enjoyable Baphomet Pan Shub-Niggurath.
I was wondering how they could top such a monstrosity of an album, but it seems that they have managed to do this with ease. Continue reading “Unaussprechlichen Kulten – Keziah Lilith Medea (Chapter X) (Review)”
Folie a Deux are a black metal band from Sweden and this is their debut album.
This is underground and nasty. The band’s style is somewhere between black and death metal, taking elements of both and barking rough growling shouts over the top of everything. Continue reading “Folie a Deux – Misanthropic Slaughter Cult (Review)”

Promethean are a French symphonic blackened death metal band and this is their debut EP.
The cover of this alone was enough to pique my interest. You know what they say; come for the cover, stay for the music, right? Continue reading “Promethean – Aloades (Review)”
John Frum are a death metal band from the US. This is their debut album.
This is very much not your standard death metal album.
Featuring present and past members of bands such as The Faceless, The Dillinger Escape Plan, and John Zorn, this release combines progressive, avant-garde, atmospheric, dissonant, technical, and psychedelic death metal into a darkly enjoyable whirlwind of chaos and heaviness.
