Reviews: MI Metal Shows & Albums
Here’s Our Opinion.
Dethklok – Dethalbum IV
…beautifully crafted riffs, brutal vocals, and tight, clean recording quality.
EXCLUSIVE TRACK PREMIERE: Warcrab – The Howling Silence
I’m a pretty huge fan of the band’s output to date, but this track tops the pile for me.
Witches Forest – Sitting on Stardust
Witches Forest is a perfect example of someone who was actually showing indigenous musical characteristics.
Iskandr – Spiritus Sylvestris
I really love songs that sound like they’d work as a pop songs too and this absolutely does. Bravo!
Ushangvagush – Pestmo’qon
Musically, Pesto’qon picks up where Mntu left off, and then builds from there.
Auriferous Flame – Ardor For Black Mastery
while fundamentally it is black metal as we know and love it, it’s turned and tweaked and reshaped in small ways that leave it sounding fresh and vital.
Bergfried – Romantik II
It really threw me off on first listen, but it’s so well executed that I couldn’t help but fall in love with it.
Feast of the Witch – Under a Sinister Moon
Azaketh has crafted five tracks which feel genuinely powerful.
RORCAL – Silence
When leagues of black metal and sludge bands continue to narrow themselves into smaller and smaller niches in genres that are already well-trodden, sometimes a band scrambles the assumptions of genre enough to keep everything interesting. Rorcal is one such band.
Cult Burial – Reverie of the Malignant
In the case of Cult Burial’s Reverie of the Malignant, it is clear that they do not struggle to find a footing within these seemingly disparate styles. They thrive in the liminal space between them.
