Yüth Forever are a metal band from the US and this is their second album.
And now for something a little different…as they say…
Described in the promotional blurb as “13 songs of groove-laden, dark electronic, angst filled mood metal”, it’s hard to come up with a better description than that really, so we’ll go with it.
The singer’s harsh screams have a rhythmic quality to them which Continue reading “Yüth Forever – Skeleton Youth Forever (Review)”
As the name suggests, this is the third album from this Austrian post-black metal band.
Harakiri for the Sky blend resplendent, expansive post-rock/metal with a blackened intensity. The resulting 75 minutes of music on III: Trauma is heavily atmospheric, with a darkened core that screams out in forlorn misery and pain.
There’s an element of the depressive black metal style on this album, but whereas Continue reading “Harakiri for the Sky – III: Trauma (Review)”
Are you a fan of melodic black metal? Do you crave darkness in your music, but still like some vibrant and addictive streaks of colour amidst the blackness? If the answer is yes, then you could do a whole lot worse than checking out Uhtcearu’s début album The Plight of Wanderers. Zach Ostrowski, (bass/vocals), took time out from weaving dark magics to give us a bit more info on this US band…

Hard Charger are from Canada and play crossover/thrash metal.
Chrome Lord was a short and confident blending of the hardcore and thrash styles, showing a band who knew what they were doing, but just needed a few tweaks here and there to truly make an impression.
So how have they done on this release? Well, the sound Continue reading “Hard Charger – Bad Omens (Review)”
Sacramental Blood are a brutal death metal band from Serbia. This is their début album.
This is savage, ferocious death metal that wastes no time in establishing its presence with blast beats, daemonic growls and lightspeed riffs. Yes, Sacramental Blood have arrived.
The vocalist spews forth powerfully delivered growls that seem to Continue reading “Sacramental Blood – Ternion Demonarchy (Review)”
This is the second album from Nervosa, who are a Brazilian thrash metal band.
Nervosa play their thrash metal with razorblade intent and an equally sharp delivery.
This is not for their faint-hearted, as their take on thrash is definitely of the more extreme Continue reading “Nervosa – Agony (Review)”
This is the début EP from Unothera, who are a melodic doom/death band from the Netherlands.
This EP consists of 5 tracks – two actual songs and three piano movements.
The songs take influence from the likes of My Dying Bride, Katatonia and Paradise Lost, with sorrowful atmosphere aplenty. Keyboards are also used to add depth to the misery that the band exude, and I think these are particularly Continue reading “Unothera – Broken (Review)”
This is the début album from this US metallic hardcore band, Poison Headache.
Featuring an album cover that immediately grabs the attention, this is a band that fuses hardcore and metal into an ugly ball of condensed violence.
Hearing this description, and knowing that there is an ex-member of As I Lay Dying Continue reading “Poison Headache – Poison Headache (Review)”
This is the fourth album from this black/Pagan/folk metal band Thy Worshiper.
I’ve been following this band for a while now, and their individual take on black metal is always a very welcome listen. Both Czarna Dzika Czerwień and Ozimina were very enjoyable, and it seems on their latest album Klechdy they’ve really Continue reading “Thy Worshiper – Klechdy (Review)”
This is the fifth album from this US black metal band.
Dawn of Ashes play modern, professional, industrial black metal with plenty of keyboard/electronic enhancements. Kind of coming across as a mix of Dimmu Borgir, Deathstars and Neurotech, this is heavy, rhythmic and quite catchy. Continue reading “Dawn of Ashes – Theophany (Review)”
