LaColpa – Post Tenebra Lux
Over the course of roughly forty three minutes, spread across five tracks, LaColpa assail the listener with a nightmare of nihilistic intensity.
FULL ALBUM STREAM: PRECARIA and ÔROS KAÙ – Theosulphuros
Taken together, the two sides of Theosulphuros have something of a yin yang quality to them – the more structured Precaria, riding herd on the wild nature of Darkness, driving chaos relentlessly forward and the more chaotic ÔROS KAÙ whose wild rhythms reveal a central, mesmeric calm being birthed.
VIDEO PREMIERE: Cult Burial – Dethroner
Great beauty is buried within a dark morass of dissonance destructiveness.
Throne – Pestilent Dawn
There will be a moment in your future when you get to press play on this album for this first time, and that moment will be amazing!
Blood Red Fog – Fields of Sorrow
Like other Finnish (and French) bands, the sound initially comes off as very raw, but you then realize that every instrument is heard, everything has their space and their moments to be heard and appreciated.
Lunacy – Melancholic Invocations
The final product is gripping, painful to behold, and wonderfully cathartic.
Aversio Humanitatis – Behold The Silent Dwellers
Coming in hot to celebrate a decade of evolving and growing, we have reach a point of maturity and perfection, as Behold The Silent Dwellers is nothing short of a masterpiece.
Gelkhammar – The Sword of Gelfiser
Each listen leaves me simultaneously fulfilled and wanting more. Perhaps that is the sorcerous power of the sword.
Yovel – Forthcoming Humanity
“May this work be a guide to action – a wall against despair.”
Anaal Nathrakh – Endarkenment
