Album Reviews
Sargeist aptly reached to a grandeur level there was a time when the band was a disciple but after years of cultivation they became musical mentors.
Wiegedood are straight black metal band that has forged its own identity and sound in a very short period of time.
“I Loved You at Your Darkest” is Behemoth’s holy grail, it’s simply marvelous and undoubtedly marks the beginning of the band’s third era.
Sulphur Sovereign is mastered by sharp riffs and it’s sacrilegiously brutal and extremely evil.
Anaal Nathrakh are still pushing the boundaries of extreme music to its furthest limits. The dynamic duo from Birmingham have done so with each new release, and this time’s no different.
Valdrin has crafted a unique and important album in the band’s musical career, this is surely a great album!!
If the nun from ‘the conjuring’ movies would have a stereo, this one would be on 24/7… FINIT HIC DEO!
It seldom happens that a highly anticipated debut album surpasses all expectations. Mare achieved just that with what is already a contemporary black metal classic.
The swansong of Alghazanth, a Finnish black metal band that has been around for decades…
“Sounds from the Vortex” is refreshingly modern and it’s definitely one of the substantial releases of 2018. Fans of Dissection, Sacramentum and Unanimated will dig this excellent release.
