Brought to us by current/ex-members of Aurora Borealis, Enthean, Hate Eternal, Malevolent Creation, Nile, and Olkoth, Imperishable have a wealth of experience available to them.

This is the fifth album from German death metal band Temple of Dread.
It has been little over a year since Beyond Acheron, so I was not expecting a new Temple of Dread album again so soon at all. God of the Godless comes to us in the form of 42 minutes of new material, and it once again demonstrates why the band are so good at what they do. Continue reading “Temple of Dread – God of the Godless (Review)”

Garoted are a death metal band from the US and this is their fourth album.
