Rabitrup is an electronic/industrial metal one man project from the US and this is his latest EP.
This is 20 minutes of horrorscapes and harsh industrial sounds. This is not done in an inaccessible way, however, and the music on SWVMPS II has just the right amount of twisted melody and compositional sense Continue reading “Rabitrup – SWVMPS II (Review)”
This is the latest release from one-man UK-based experimental drone band Dunjin.

Godflesh are a UK industrial post-metal band and this is their eighth album.
Combining rumbling industrialised dub beats with heavy guitars and no small amount of emotive beauty, the latest Godflesh release is a rusting cyborg constructed from so many clashing parts of pieces that in any other band’s hands it probably wouldn’t work. Godflesh, of course, know exactly what they’re doing. Continue reading “Godflesh – Post Self (Review)”
This is the debut album from Italian doom band LaColpa.

Blut Aus Nord are a black metal band, (among other things), from France. This is their twelfth album.
Blut Aus Nord are a well-known band with a well-known proclivity for experimentation and producing music that’s as unexpected/unpredictable as it is rich, dark, and textured. Continue reading “Blut Aus Nord – Deus Salutis Meæ (Review)”
Zaraza are a doom/sludge band from Ecuador. This is their third album.
Zaraza play experimental industrial-tinged doom/sludge metal. Slow, dreary, and utterly without hope. Continue reading “Zaraza – Spasms of Rebirth (Review)”
This is the third album from Mutation, a UK hardcore band.
Featuring Ginger from The Wildhearts, this is a very different proposition to the kind of material he usually produces. Continue reading “Mutation – III: Dark Black (Review)”
