Plague Weaver – Ascendant Blasphemy
Foul atmosphere and pugilistic attacks leave the listener mentally bloody, with bruised psyche, ready to relent the demands of the artists.
Mare Cognitum – Solar Paroxysm
What is really interesting and I’m not sure if it’s just ME, but it feels and sounds really good to restart this album immediately after it finishes.
Satanize – Baphomet Altar Worship
Satanize has been terrorizing the scene since 2001 and shows no sign of slowing down their tyrannical train.
Hosts of Lord – A Chamber Above Cosmic Waters
This third full length by this new, yet prolific artist is a potent example of paying homage to past masters, while still creating something viscerally fresh in its horrifying darkness. Pay attention!
Starer – 18° Below the Horizon
The album transports me into my own mind, then leads me on an exploration of that infinite space.
VIDEO PREMIERE: Plasmodium – ParaMantra
Plasmodium attacks in a fear-inducing swarm of chaotic terror.
ALBUM STREAM: Changeling/Everlasting Light – Split
A cohesive split where both bands hook you and won’t let go, this is a release worthy of thirty plus minutes of your time, over and over again.
TRACK STREAM: Kõdu – Sügispime
I’m made to feel quite uneasy at many points on the album, hackles raised. One can hope there is more to come from this young band. In the meantime, strap in – it’s quite a ride!
VIDEO PREMIERE: The Noctambulant – Blackened Swords of Satan
[The album] cuts sharply through the uninspired masses of extreme metal, forward thinking, but calling forth the masters of the past. Raise your horns and bang your head.
Carrion Bloom – Heretic Howl
Rugged and abrasive, the album comes at you full on from the moment you press play.
