Reviews: MI Metal Shows & Albums
Here’s Our Opinion.
Sacral Rage – Beyond Celestial Echoes
this is withering-fire metal amplified 150 percent on the technicality and innovation scales.
Black to Comm – Seven Horses For Seven Kings
I feel unsettled, nervous, even insignificant as I listen, but the effect is more ominous than threatening.
Discarnatus – Condemned to Darkness
Fermented deep in the underground depths of pandemonium, this release contains many familiar aspects of the Discarnatus sound.
Cloudburst – Cloudburst
builds to a wall of sound crescendo reminiscent of early emocore for just a moment before the chaos resumes.
Deadbird – III: The Forest Within the Tree
traditional elements of classic stoner and doom metal, sprinkled in some sludge and noise elements, and twisted them into a well-integrated form.
Unattended Death – SPLIT w/ Ridiculous Terror
three tracks of throwback goregrind with riffage that brings up memories of early Cannibal Corpse, delivered in bite sized chunks I can eat up again and again.
Hayduke’s Top 50 of 2018
What a year it’s been! There is no way a top 50 album is enough to truly express the fantastic year of music that was 2018. Nevertheless, check it out, comment, agree, argue, enjoy!
Night Vapor – 1000 Miles of Mud
clashing notes, sporadic beats, quavering distortion, and chain-smoking vocals
Skraeckoedlan – Äppelträdet
a sludgy, distorted bass tone that is as viscous as the deadly muck of a WWI Flanders battlefield.
The Ocean – Phanerozoic I: Paleozoic
massive songs which are perfectly crafted in every way, but the execution is deceptively simple; in some ways minimalist
