Reviews: MI Metal Shows & Albums
Here’s Our Opinion.
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.
Tongues-Formløse Stjerner
…if you wanna sit with an album for a few listens and really get to know it, then this one’s for you!
Owlbear – Chaos to the Realm
Owlbear kicks ass. Seriously.
Ebony Pendant – Ebony Pendant
Right of the rip, or should I say riff, this album brings you to the trve and cold.
Starer – Wind, Breeze, or Breath
Starer can basically do know wrong. Each album is part of a cohesive sound, yet each also has its own unique elements.
Psionic Madness – Rotting Dominion
Big props to the guys for creating such a monumental release and in my opinion one of the best death metal releases of 2022.
EXCLUSIVE TRACK STREAM: Wyrgher – Destroyer of the Promethean Path
This may be the darkest entry I’ve heard in the cosmic black metal subcategory. It is also one of the best.
EXCLUSIVE TRACK PREMIERE: Terra Builder – Dead Celestial
Solar Temple is an absolute monster, a fantastic start for this new band, and another dark gem in the Transcending Obscurity list of releases.
EXCLUSIVE DUAL TRACK PREMIERE: Organ Dealer – Truth Blinders/Endless Despondence
The attack on The Weight of Being is poignant and powerful, both lyrically and sonically.
Gossamer – The Culling of Crones
The weight of the subject matter, the strength of the composition, and the rugged excellence of the playing make this an album worth many repeat spins.
