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!
