This is the second album from Spanish death metal band Eternal Storm.
A Giant Bound to Fall is a much anticipated album in the land of progressive death metal. 2019’s Come the Tide was a very well-regarded album, so five years later, what have the Eternal Storm of 2024 delivered to us? Continue reading “Eternal Storm – A Giant Bound to Fall (Review)”
This is the third album from Spanish death metal band Pestilength.
I’ve really been looking forward to hearing Solar Clorex, and its 36-minute experience has not disappointed. Self-styled as corrosive death metal, this appellation fits Pestilength’s music perfectly. Continue reading “Pestilength – Solar Clorex (Review)”

I’m not sure what initially drew me to check out Sinistrum, but as soon as I saw that they contain current and ex-members of Abominant, Bihargam, Aeons of Eclipse, and Fornicus, I knew I had to give this a proper go. Continue reading “Sinistrum – Infernal Dawn (Review)”
This is the second album from Contaminated, an Australian death metal band.
Having enjoyed 2014’s Pestilential Decay, 2017’s Final Man, and 2019’s split with Kutabare, I almost missed Celebratory Beheading when it appeared on my promo pile due to the different style of artwork. Yes, I’m apparently that easily confused! I’m glad I took a second look though, as it’s great to catch up with what Contaminated are up to these days.

This is the second album from US death/doom band Spectral Voice.
Featuring members of Black Curse and Blood Incantation, Spectral Voice play the sort of humungous death doom that crushes mountains and destroys villages. Sparagmos boasts 46 minutes of material that’s as distressing as it is rewarding. Continue reading “Spectral Voice – Sparagmos (Review)”
Unaussprechlichen Kulten are a death metal band from Chile and this is their sixth album.
I enjoyed 2014’s Baphomet Pan Shub-Niggurath and 2017’s Keziah Lilith Medea (Chapter X), (somehow I managed to completely miss out on 2019’s Teufelsbücher), and now Unaussprechlichen Kulten have returned with the 43-minute Häxan Sabaoth.
