Tools of Oppression​/​Rule by Deception
by The Hope Conspiracy

Throughout hardcore and punk there has been numerous bands reuniting over the last few years, usually starting off as an anniversary tour or show for a particular album or their discography that would sometimes lead to new material. But other groups opt to just return with little warning and pick up...

This Ending- Crowned In Blood (Album Review) June 5, 2024

Crowned In Blood
by This Ending

They may only be a few years away from their twentieth anniversary, but the roots of Swedish melodic death metal band This Ending go back quite a bit further than that.

Thou- Umbilical (Album Review) May 31, 2024

Umbilical
by Thou

Thou will turn twenty next year, and the Louisiana based sludge/doom band has been a regular fixture in the underground for most of that time. Whether its due to the combination of crushing riffs, subtle melodies, and unrelenting vocals or the numerous collaborations theyve done over the years, Thou...

Gradience- Ironsight (EP Review) May 29, 2024

Ironsight
by Gradience

One of the exciting parts of being a music reviewer is discovering bands that bring together genres that dont seem like they would mesh well on paper. Danish duo Gradience is a perfect example, as they take elements of hip-hop, nu-metal, deathcore, and metalcore, and fuse it with black metal to crea...

Crownshift- Crownshift (Album Review) May 29, 2024

Crownshift
by Crownshift

Crownshift may be a brand-new group, but they bring a wealth of experience with them. Not only have their members been a part of the likes of Children of Bodom, Nightwish, Norther, and MyGrain, but the three instrumentalists were also a part of melodic death metal band Naildown in the mid-2000s. Wit...

Bat- Under The Crooked Claw (Album Review) May 28, 2024

Under The Crooked Claw
by Bat

Not only has Municipal Waste become an institution of the more fun side of crossover thrash over the past two decades, but its members have kept themselves busy with plenty of side projects. The best known out of these is the slightly more hardcore leaning Iron Reagan, but the group that always stoo...

Kerry King- From Hell I Rise (Album Review) May 20, 2024

From Hell I Rise
by Kerry King

Kerry King indicated he was putting together a new band of some type not long after Slayer officially disbanded in 2019, but between the pandemic and other factors it has taken nearly five years for the first release bearing his name to see the light of day. It comes at a bit of an odd time consider...

Gatecreeper- Dark Superstition (Album Review) May 16, 2024

Dark Superstition
by Gatecreeper

There are more death metal bands in the United States than one could possibly keep track of, but every few years there are those that are able to break out of the pack and gain notoriety. Arizona based Gatecreeper did just that with their debut Sonoran Depravation in 2016 and theyve only gained more...

Best And WORST Metal Album Remakes RANKED May 15, 2024

Metal Album Remake Tier List
by Metal Trenches

It's the rare exception that remaking something makes it BETTER. More often than not, re-recording an album is a bad idea or outright cash grab. In most cases I find it no better than messing with the original Star Wars films or the endless parade of hot garbage Disney live action remakes. But every...

Exhumation- Master's Personae (Album Review) May 14, 2024

Master's Personae
by Exhumation

Indonesias Exhumation is a band thats been on my periphery as far back as 2014s Opus Death, but prior to this years Master's Personae I hadnt explored their material in-depth. Originally formed back in 2008 with an emphasis on old-school death metal that fell somewhere between Morbid Angel and Vader...

Hot Water Music- Vows (Album Review) May 13, 2024

Vows
by Hot Water Music

Hot Water Music turns thirty this year, and rather than just focusing on their past discography and playing live shows of just the hits the veteran punk/post hardcore band continues to give us new music. Vows follows 2022s Feel the Void and features a star-studded list of guest contributors, but unl...

Haust- Negative Music (Album Review) May 13, 2024

Negative Music
by Haust

Although I didnt come across Haust until their 2013 album No, the Norwegian punk band formed back in 2001 and put out material at a steady pace in their earlier days. On albums like 2005s Ride the Relapse the group had something of a black metal meets punk aesthetic, opting for songs that kept the s...
