Dakhma - Blessings of Amurdad (Album Review) Nov. 23, 2021

Blessings of Amurdad
by Dakhma

Swiss musician Kerberos has had a busy year, as not only did he release the sophomore album from Lykhaeon but he has also given us the sophomore effort from Dakhma. Though both these projects have some similarities in terms of the scope of their songwriting and the overall density of their instrumen...

Plebeian Grandstand - Rien ne suffit (Album Review) Nov. 18, 2021

Rien ne suffit
by Plebeian Grandstand

Frances Plebeian Grandstand made a name for themselves with an abrasive and chaotic mix of black metal and hardcore/mathcore, bringing the two together in ways that emphasized dissonance and technicality in equal measure. While they often generated comparisons to the likes of Deathspell Omega, the b...

Bonded - Into Blackness (Album Review) Nov. 11, 2021

Into Blackness
by Bonded

Bonded was formed a few years back by ex-members of Suicidal Angels and Sodom which set some high expectations for their debut full-length Rest in Violence in 2020. I found it to be an enjoyable mix of old-school thrash with some modern grooves, and while there were some lulls around the halfway poi...

War of Ages - Rhema (EP Review) Nov. 4, 2021

Rhema
by War of Ages

Its hard to believe that War of Ages is only one year away from their twentieth anniversary, but they have a lot to show for those two decades with nine full-length releases (or eight depending on how you consider the re-packaging of the self-titled for 2007s Fire From the Tomb). For me they served ...

Omnium Gatherum - Origin (Album Review) Nov. 4, 2021

Origin (2021)
by Omnium Gatherum

Where some bands find a sound quite early on and then make tweaks to it for years to come, Finlands Ominium Gatherum had developed slowly and tried quite a few different things before finding the huge, booming choruses and entrancing keyboard melodies fans think of today. Their earlier efforts are a...

Archspire - Bleed the Future (Album Review) Oct. 28, 2021

Bleed the Future
by Archspire

Technical death metal has been one of those sub-genres that remains very hit or miss for me, as while almost every band categorized as tech death has some level of impressive musicianship quite a few releases havent had anything my brain could latch onto and remember days or even hours afterwards. T...
