Abhoria – Abhoria
Abhoria is a catchy album, with earworm riffs crawling out of the blackness to crawl around in your brain for a while.
Wiegedood – There’s Always Blood At The End Of The Road
…the album [is] rich with feeling, beautiful in the way that a carcass is beautiful as it rots to become one with the earth again.
Olim – A Mighty Disposition
The atmosphere is tense and ominous, while simultaneously being subtly relaxing and full of emotion.
Benthik Zone – εἴδωλον
This third full length by the Portuguese duo travels seamlessly through the strangeness of the deep and the dark.
EXCLUSIVE TRACK PREMIERE: Hellfrost and Fire – Debris Wrought From Winter
Punishing down-tuned death metal riffs, belligerent drumming, and David Ingram’s trademark bellow.

Enjoy Hayduke’s Top 50 of 2021 list.
Tzompantli – Tlamanalli
This will not stop until all are crushed beneath it. Prepare for the end.
Dysthymia – Dysthymia
The ride is dark, and often hopeless. I also find it cathartic.
Lhaäd – Below
This debut album sucks all the air out of your lungs and holds you under for the entirety of its forty minute run-time.
Carnis Immortalis – The Ecstacy of Death
Quite frankly, I’m a little shook by how intensely good this album is.
