Heavy Metal Around the Globe
Black Falcon – Ego Mortem Machina
They have genuine creative minds and force both resonant and threatening…
Vile Creature – Glory, Glory! Apathy Took Helm!
Hearing it will not be enough, but if you do hear it, you will feel it.
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

The music they create together is nothing short of sorcery.
Ice War – Defender, Destroyer

Bleed From Within – Fracture
Bleed From Within are in top form on this album. Years of experience are clearly paying off on this record.

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.

You can close your eyes while listening to this album and picture standing in the rain; cold, clean refreshing, washing away the dirt of the day like the sins of the baptized.
Venomous Skeleton – Drowning In Circles
…the dead gather at the center of the underworld, where Venomous Skeleton performs as the house band.

Shrewdly situated and controlled impact beats summarize to a savagely dim and audaciously fierce methodology.
