Album Reviews

“Lachrymose Monuments of Obscuration” is dark and crushingly heavy, and stands as a milestone in the band’s discography. Hooded Menace delivers a top performance and songwriting prowess in its most majestic and grandiose form. Out via Season of Mist on October 3rd.

“The Tritonus Bell” seemingly see the Finns at their best musical form to date, this comes highly recommended for fans of Paradise Lost, Candlemass, and Runemagick.

Temple of Void is taking gradual progress shaping up their trademarks by every album, highly recommended for fans of Paradise Lost, Asphyx and Hooded Menace.

Ossuarium’s “Living Tomb” is an album that lives up to the hype. And can surely withstand the erosion of time and space, I would proudly place this album right beside Disma’s debut album “Towards the Megalith”.

Finnish death doom masters Hooded Menace return with crushing somberness, travelling to new heights of ultimate despair and grotesque.
