This is the debut album from Polish death metallers Clairvoyance.
Chasm of Immurement contains 34 minutes of old-school death metal. Clairvoyance’s debut album takes us back to the 90s, while still crushing in 2025. If you’re a fan of bands such as Cerebral Rot, Genocide Pact, Incantation, Phrenelith, Necrot, and Tomb Mold, then this is one for you. Continue reading “Clairvoyance – Chasm of Immurement (Review)”

This is the sixth album from US black metal band Abigail Williams.
Brought to us by current/ex-members of bands such as Aborted, Changeling, Chrome Waves, Fear Factory, The Faceless, Lord Mantis, Nachtmystium, Vale of Pnath, and Wolvhammer, a lot of experience and skills has gone into A Void Within Existence. In fact, due to the members, I’m amazed I’ve never listened to Abigail Williams prior to this new album. I’ve heard the name many times, but this is my first exposure to their brand of black metal.

This is the third album from French death metal band Impureza.
Following on from 2017’s La Caída de Tonatiuh, (which seems like it came out an age ago), Impureza have now returned with the 49-minute Alcázares. If you’re interested in death metal with flamenco elements, and enjoy bands like Behemoth, Fleshgod Apocalypse, Hate Eternal, and Nile, then this is for you. Continue reading “Impureza – Alcázares (Review)”
Meth Leppard are an Australian grindcore band and this is their second album.
Gatekeepers is a 10-track, 15-minute kick in the face. Meth Leppard offer up an intense dose of brutality that should find fans of bands like Axis of Despair, Insect Warfare, Leng Tch’e, Maruta, Nasum, Pig Destroyer, and Rotten Sound quite happy. Continue reading “Meth Leppard – Gatekeepers (Review)”
This is the latest EP from Australian death metal band Beyond Mortal Dreams.
Oh my, it’s somehow been 11 years (!) since I last caught up with Beyond Mortal Dreams, (Dreaming Death and Lamia). This ends now, with the appropriately named Devastation Hymns. I was impressed with both of those early releases, so I definitely intend to check out what I’ve been missing at some point. For now though, we have this new 31-minute release – five original songs and a Forbidden cover. Continue reading “Beyond Mortal Dreams – Devastation Hymns (Review)”
Putridity are an Italian death metal band this is their fourth album.
Sometimes all you feel like is absolute brutality. Enter Putridity. Morbid Ataraxia is a feast of uncompromising savagery, and it really hits the spot when you’re in a certain mood. Continue reading “Putridity – Morbid Ataraxia (Review)”
This is the ninth album by US death metallers Drawn and Quartered.
Drawn and Quartered are a very good death metal band, with a history of strong releases. They are the kind of band that can take similar components that are used so well by acts such as Immolation and Incantation, yet manage to fuse these into something that has a personality of its own. At this point in their career Drawn and Quartered have more than shown their talent and longevity in the death metal game, so Lord of Two Horns is an eagerly anticipated release. Continue reading “Drawn and Quartered – Lord of Two Horns (Review)”
Serpent Corpse are a Canadian death metal band and this is their latest EP.
I thoroughly enjoyed 2023’s Blood Sabbath, so am pleased to have this new EP from Serpent Corpse. Retaliate contains 26 minutes of new material – four tracks of hideous old-school death metal for fans of the good stuff. On Retaliate Serpent Corpse have pushed themselves further, with longer songs and a wider breadth of deathly vision. Continue reading “Serpent Corpse – Retaliate (Review)”
This is the ninth album from Canadian death metallers Cryptopsy.
A new Cryptopsy release is always an event to be celebrated. Less than two years after 2023’s very enjoyable As Gomorrah Burns, the band are now back with the 34-minute powerhouse that is An Insatiable Violence. Continue reading “Cryptopsy – An Insatiable Violence (Review)”
