Heavy Metal Reviews & Interviews
Æpoch – Awakening Inception
As their songwriting continues to mature, the only direction for them is up.
Windhand / Satan’s Satyrs – Split
If the devil wears studded leather jackets and drives a motorcycle, then he without a doubt listens to this band.
Convocation – Scars Across
The duo take you on a journey through the ashes of humanity and make you fall entirely in love with what you are witnessing.
Huntsmen – American Scrap
I’ve run out of words. I’m not sure how to wrap up this review. I suppose I will just say that you need to experience it for yourself.
High Priests – Spinning
If all that sounds like fun, it’s because it definitely is.
Monotheist – Scourge
It’s an awesome album. It’s a fucking experience.
Augury – Illusive Golden Age
The bottom line is this, Illusive Golden Age has something for everyone.

Troll – Troll
truly good psych/progressive/doom songs
Stark Denial – Covenant of Black
tireless in its pursuit of metal perfection.

Five Thoughts: Huntsmen Live
Some words on a recent live music experience.
Nest – Metempsychosis
You could only feel closer to the band if you were standing in their rehearsal studio with them.
Pestilent Reign – Pyres
This is a well produced, cohesive, and incredibly competent album which stands proudly on its own outside of a large pack of forgettable technical wankery with zero substance.

We hope that by listening to our music people can figure out that they are not alone and there are others that think like them and bring them together.
