Hempire- The Weight (Album Review)
March 17, 2025
The Weight
by
Hempire
North Carolinas been a regular source for stoner rock, doom, and everything in between over the past few decades, so it makes sense that a band like Hempire would cover a lot of the in between on their debut The Weight. This debut follows their 2022 demo High Country Hash Thrash and features a lot o...
Century- Sign of the Storm (Album Review)
March 6, 2025
Sign of the Storm
by
Century
Swedish heavy metal duo Century may have only formed in 2020, but theyve showcased over the course of a demo and full length that they understand the appeal of the formative period of heavy metal and hard rock extremely well and could also put their own spin on it. 2023s The Conquest of Time felt li...
Raging Speedhorn- Night Wolf (Album Review)
March 4, 2025
Night Wolf
by
Raging Speedhorn
In the early to mid-2000s, Raging Speedhorn fused elements of hardcore, rock n roll, and sludge/groove metal together in ways that had just as much swagger and catchiness as they did raw aggression. Their earlier days had some borderline nu-metal influence (particularly the self-titled 2000 debut), ...
Möuth- Global Warning (Album Review)

Global Warning
by
Möuth
Muth may have only formed in 2023, but as you make your way through the Swedish groups debut Global Warning they sound like theyve been around for much longer as theres a level of polish and precision to their music thats not as uncommon with brand new bands. Stylistically the trio initially comes i...
Cross Bringer- Healismus Aeternus (Album Review)
Feb. 25, 2025
Healismus Aeternus
by
Cross Bringer
Cross Bringers 2020 debut drew me in with its fusion of black metal and hardcore, as it emphasized the violent and abrasive elements of both genres while also incorporating some brighter ambient spots. At the time I found the softer elements to feel a bit meandering and the songs where they appeared...
Pentagram- Lightning In A Bottle (Album Review)
Feb. 20, 2025
Lightning In A Bottle
by
Pentagram
When it comes to the formative days of doom, Pentagram is one of the main bands in the US that got the genre started alongside the likes of Trouble and Saint Vitus. With a career that spans over fifty years and plenty of material to show for it, the group certainly has nothing to prove at this point...
Sarcator- Swarming Angels & Flies (Album Review)
Feb. 14, 2025
Swarming Angels & Flies
by
Sarcator
Swedens Sarcator has made quite a name for themselves over the past six years, showcasing that this current generation of metal musicians can put out music that is just as intense and rabid as their thrash and black/thrash contemporaries from several decades ago. The groups earlier material went for...
Barshasketh- Antinomian Asceticism (Album Review)

Antinomian Asceticism
by
Barshasketh
Barshasketh has been honing their craft for the better part of eighteen years now, starting off in New Zealand before relocating to Scotland following 2010s Defying the Bonds of Cosmic Thraldom. Where earlier material fell closer to second-wave black metal, by the time the groups third album Ophidia...
Moondark- The Abysmal Womb (Album Review)
Dec. 28, 2024
The Abysmal Womb
by
Moondark
The sheer amount of death metal that came from Sweden as the genre was emerging in the early to mid-90s makes it hard to hear every band from that era, but as more and more have gotten the reissue treatment and even decided to make new material listeners have gotten plenty to check out. Moondark is ...

But The Machine Demands Blood
by
Gun Boat
There isnt a lot of information out there about Brooklyn based Gun Boat, as while their Bandcamp page may list the names of their members and their Instagram profile has a few scattered photos, thats about all listeners who may stumble upon their music have to go on. But letting your music do the ta...

...There Is No Emptiness...
by
Mirzam Antidotum ov Marazm
Poland continues to deliver a broad range of bands within black and death metal, as while there are plenty that skew towards more orthodox interpretations of the genre there are also just as many going for something a little different. Mirzam Antidotum ov Marazm skews towards the latter end of the s...
Deinonychus- Fatalist (Album Review)
Dec. 11, 2024
Fatalist
by
Deinonychus
Deinonychus was one of the early trailblazers when it came to fusing the raw, abrasive qualities of black metal and crushing weight and atmosphere of doom. Throughout their initial fifteen year run the group shifted from album to album, sometimes bringing in more of a depressive black metal sound wh...
Lord Goblin- Lord Goblin (Album Review)
Dec. 9, 2024
Lord Goblin
by
Lord Goblin
Lord Goblins debut full-length passed me by when it first came out digitally in March, but thanks to No Remorse Records picking it up for a CD/vinyl release in November I had the opportunity to spend time with a band thats doing some very cool things within the heavy metal genre. While theyre based ...

Atomic Prey
by
Atomic Prey
When it comes to D-beat and noisier punk, Iron Lung Records continues to be one of the go-to labels when you want music thats going to bludgeon you repeatedly in a short period of time but have elements that stand out from the crowd. Portlands Atomic Prey fits this description perfectly, as their se...

Heart of Thorns
by
Jager Henry
In the music industry its not uncommon to see children of prominent musicians pursuing their own careers, but in recent years Ive come across quite a few that have gone in very differing stylistic directions from their parents. Sometimes there is overlap and the output is rooted in the genre their p...
