The Cheats – Cussin, Crying N’ Carrying On
To tune in to The Cheats is to encounter more than essentially a blast of flammable gen X rage, but to observe the codification of another type of melodic craftsmanship.
Sepulchral Curse – Only Ashes Remain
This album could probably beat up your dad and older brother combined.
Graceless – Where Vultures Know Your Name
There’s a storm thundering in the distance and I’m not sure I’ll survive.
Blight – Temple of Wounds
The music they create together is nothing short of sorcery.
Ice War – Defender, Destroyer
…invigorating straightforwardness to keep everything moving forward.
Bleed From Within – Fracture
Bleed From Within are in top form on this album. Years of experience are clearly paying off on this record.
Drought – Trimurti
Allow it to lead your journey. See where it will take you. Perhaps to some form of enlightenment, whether that be large or small.
Temple of Void – The World that Was
Think tearing yourself apart while still conscious, blood dripping, brain exposed, yeah, the death metal works.
Stabby the Kitty – I Have No Idea What I’m Doing
The rest of the brief but dizzying time span of the record is spent with absolutely everything on ten from the drum machine to the incomprehensible guttural vocals.
Akix – An Obscure Delirious Seance
Black and roll meets psychedelic doom to create an off kilter stew of occult magical delights.
