Reviews: MI Metal Shows & Albums
Here’s Our Opinion.
Niboowin – giving in (Review + Interview)
I just walk away from listening each time feeling like I’ve grown or changed in some vaguely satisfying way, like I’ve achieved a catharsis I didn’t even really know I needed.
Lust Hag – Lust Hag (Review plus Interview)
TL;DR – Lust Hag by Lust Hag is a dark, swirling, yet well balanced masterpiece of raw black metal tension.
EXCLUSIVE FULL ALBUM STREAM: Done – Rest to Rust EP
The six tracks are more nuanced, more blackened, and meaner than what was found on the already stellar prior releases.
EXCLUSIVE TRACK STREAM: Fractal Generator – Cryogenian
“Convergence” is absolutely visceral and will hold its grip on you for a long time to come.
TRACK PREMIERE: Glyph – Of The Caverns
The evolution happens bit by bit, piece by piece, almost under the radar, and all in service to the ‘stretching of wings, to fly into the sun.’
FEATURE: Malevich – Trembling and Dowsed EP (plus tour news and an interview)
Michiganders please note that they are at the Regal Beagle in Ann Arbor on May 5th. Sell it out.
Best of March 2024
Our very belated round up (my fault, not Andy’s) of our favorite releases in March.
Hecatoncheir – Nightmare Utopia
It has enough maturity and musical understanding to help keep its freshness
Kólga – Black Tides
Just in time for the sunshine and the summer’s warm embrace, we are given an album that will be played a lot during the scorched daze ahead.
Feed Them Death – The Malady (plus an introduction to the first single: Panopticism II)
The album is visceral and difficult to be sure, but also a brilliant Trojan horse for potential.
