Reviews: MI Metal Shows & Albums
Here’s Our Opinion.
Cryptosis – Bionic Swarm
Band - Cryptosis Album - Bionic Swarm Country of Origin - The Netherlands Genre - Progressive Thrash Metal Release Date - March 26, 2021 Label - Century Media Records Author - Hayduke X Bionic Swarm is the perfect name for this album for a couple of reasons....
Omination – NGR
A rich sonic palette paints a deep experiential listen, full of strife and anguish. Though incredibly beautiful, NGR is also stunningly dark, and subtly horrifying.
Gonemage – Mystical Extraction
The album is sometimes spastic, and rarely sits still long, even in the slower parts. And yet it all flows so well together.
Lóstregos – Onde Calan Os Corazóns Ruxen As Pedras
I’m in awe of this album. It has grabbed me viscerally and thoroughly.
Darkgem – Luminous Hag
There is vibrant energy and a sense of immediacy to these tracks, probably due to the purpose of the composition.
Myrkgand – Old Mystical Tales
Dynamic pacing, well thought out composition, a strong vocal performance, and earworm riffing all contribute to making this an album well worth hearing.
Caïna – Take Me Away From All This Death
Through a kaleidoscopic filter of electronic doom and mayhem, he explores the dark side of life.
Capra – In Transmission
In Transmission is perhaps the most immediate album I’ve heard all year. I feel like I’m front row at a show and only years spent developing self control have saved my couch from being turned into kindling in a living room mosh session.
Creeping Fear – Hategod Triumph
Only thirty-six minutes long, you still feel spent when the last note fades, such is the might of this album.
Zebulon Kosted – Die Groot Korkodil Pieter Willem Botha
The reality is that it draws you into a trance with it’s droning rhythms, building tension and beauty slowly, Ghafur revealing more of this monster with each bile filled invective.
