Aegis
by Flame, Dear Flame

Germanys Flame, Dear Flame has been together since 2017 and bring equal amounts of epic doom and heavy rock on their debut full length Aegis.

Hexorcist - Evil Reaping Death (Album Review) July 27, 2021

Evil Reaping Death
by Hexorcist

Having become a bit burned out on death metal that takes influence from the Swedish HM-2 sound, Ive been finding a lot more bands recently that instead pull from some of the earliest American takes on the genre. In particular, death metal that recalls that time period where it hadnt broken away from...

Passéisme - Eminence (Album Review) July 26, 2021

Eminence (2021)
by Passéisme

Though Passismes may take a considerable amount of influence from the more medieval sounding black metal from France as well as poetry and literary works from the end of the 19th century, the band hails from Nizhny Novgorod, Russia.

Vrykolakas - And Vrykolakas Brings Chaos and Destruction (Album Review) July 23, 2021

And Vrykolakas Brings Chaos and Destruction
by Vrykolakas

Singapore has its fair share of black and death metal bands waiting to be discovered, but when it comes to ones that have had international exposure most of you probably think of Impiety, Rudra, and Abhorer. Another long-running group whos gone under my radar is Vrykolakas, formed back in 1991 as a ...

De Arma - Strayed in Shadows (Album Review) July 20, 2021

Strayed in Shadows
by De Arma

Swedens De Arma intrigued me with their debut full length Lost, Alien Forlorn in 2013, which took elements of black metal, gothic rock, post punk, and a few other genres for a gloomy yet still somewhat abrasive take on dark music. Featuring members of bands like Stilla and Bergraven as well as Fran...
