Album Reviews

Shape of Despair has transcended far and beyond “Return to the Void” returns to the old ways as it set a new paradigm of outstanding craftsmanship that will surpass many fans of funeral doom metal.

Finnish heavy metal band Battle Beast just released their new album »Circus of Doom«, on which they perfected their usual sound while still adding a lot of new flavours into the mix. Definitely recommended.

Finnish “Northcore” stars Atlas have released what we believe is a monumental piece of art and huge leap forward in their career!

Sonata Arctica immortalized the acoustic versions of some of their classics on the new album »Acoustic Adventures Volume One«.

After six funeral paced years the grandmasters of Finnish funeral doom have returned to the crematorium with their sixth full length ‘Companion’. Out via their countrymen of Svart Records

Marianas Rest seeks to expand and critique melancholic melodic death metal on their sophomore album.

“Mercurial Passages” is utterly obscure and emphasizes a doomy atmosphere. Recommended for fans of Obliteration, Autopsy, and Demilich.

Finnish metalcore misfits One Morning Left are sitting on a banger of an album with ‘Hyperactive’, mixing in the right amounts of 80s kitsch creating a neon monster along the way!

3 songs which gives a sense of what has been and what could have been with Bodom After Midnight. A worthy addition to Alexi Laiho’s repertoire and career. May the Wildchild rest/shred in peace.

A beautiful short EP that numbs the pain of waiting for Wolfheart’s sixth full-length album.
