Beneath the Massacre – Fearmonger (Review)
This is the fourth album from Canadian death metallers Beneath the Massacre.
Beneath the Massacre play technical death metal that’s relentlessly harsh and brutal. This is not music for the uninitiated or the fragile; Beneath the Massacre are uncompromisingly merciless across these 30 minutes. This is the band’s first album in eight years, and when Continue reading “Beneath the Massacre – Fearmonger (Review)”
Xenobiotic – Mordrake (Review)
This is the second album from Xenobiotic, an Australian deathcore/death metal band.
2018’s Prometheus was a deathcore highlight for me, so I was looking forward to what they had in store for us next. I was not expecting just how good Mordrake is though. The band have progressed, and progressed well. Continue reading “Xenobiotic – Mordrake (Review)”
Krosis – A Memoir of Free Will (Review)
This is the second album from Krosis, a deathcore band from the US.
Here we have the follow up to 2018’s Solem Vatem, and it’s a damn good one. While Solem Vatem was a solid, enjoyable release, A Memoir of Free Will finds the band levelling up in pretty much every area as far as I’m concerned. Continue reading “Krosis – A Memoir of Free Will (Review)”
Estuarine – Wisdom of Silenus (Review)
This is the latest EP from Estuarine, a one-man death metal band.
I greatly enjoyed both Lucid/Entheogen and Sic Erat Scriptum, so a new EP’s worth of material is most welcome. Continue reading “Estuarine – Wisdom of Silenus (Review)”
Wormhole – The Weakest Among Us (Review)
This is the second album from international death metal group Wormhole.
I liked 2016’s Genesis, and now the band are back with a new album and a new lineup. Here they give us 28 minutes of destructive modern extremity. Continue reading “Wormhole – The Weakest Among Us (Review)”
Monthly Overview – the Best of November 2019
What an unreasonably strong month for metal releases November was! Be assured, this list could have been much, much bigger. Let’s see what made the cut… Continue reading “Monthly Overview – the Best of November 2019”
Impenitent – Impenitent (Review)
Impenitent are a blackened death metal band from the UK and this is their debut album.
Here we have some raw, underground stuff from the bottom of the underworld. It’s an hour of technical black/death metal, played with skill and passion, which sounds as if the recording of the album was recently found locked in some obscure vault somewhere after many, many years. Continue reading “Impenitent – Impenitent (Review)”
Blood Incantation – Hidden History of the Human Race (Review)
This is the second album from US death metal band Blood Incantation.
2016’s Starspawn was a very notable album, making it onto my end of year list for that year too. As such, there’s been plenty of excitement and expectation for Hidden History of the Human Race. Despite only having four tracks, this new release has not disappointed at all. Continue reading “Blood Incantation – Hidden History of the Human Race (Review)”
