Album Reviews

“Forever Black” is full of epic riffs a bone-crushing old school heavy metal album. Cirith Ungol still remains as one of the main pillars of heavy metal.

Dutch psychedelic rockers Dool search for heaven on earth on their sophomore album ‘Summerland’.

Konvent’s ‘Puritan Masochism’ is my first gem of the year.

Are you comfortable? Doesn’t matter really. Turn the volume up to 11 and doom on with Monolord’s magnum opus ‘No Comfort’.

The profound experience of Crypt Sermon in approaching doom metal. Between the thin lines of Candlemass and Solitude Aeternus the band craft their musical creativity.

Japanese grave robbbers Coffins bring the doom once more on a long overdue new full-length ‘Beyond the Circular Demise’.

On their way to the Carpathians Italian master of the macabre Abhor and Abysmal Grief stopped for a curious split out now via Iron Bonehead.

In 2018 The hellish intronauts of Oranssi Pazuzu and Dark Buddha Rising came together for a one off event, commissioned for the Roadburn Festival, ingeniously monikered The Waste of Space Orchestra. Syntheosis is the studio interpretation of that psychotropic interdimensional journey.

In case you missed out on the original birth death doom as a genre or are just feeling a bit nostalgic, have a listen to Asphodelus’ “Stygian Dreams” which takes you back to the mythical times of the early nineties
