De Profundis – The Blinding Light of Faith
Hayduke – It took slightly over ten seconds for me to fall in love with this album.
The Great Mackintosh – Yep, two point eight seconds from the minute it opens, you are fucked.
Venom Prison – Animus
Old school roots with passionate fury and layers of dissonance. Now doesn’t that sound worth a listen?
Convocation – Scars Across
The duo take you on a journey through the ashes of humanity and make you fall entirely in love with what you are witnessing.
Monotheist – Scourge
It’s an awesome album. It’s a fucking experience.
Five Thoughts: Withered/Wake at Cellarmen’s, March 28th, 2018
Comments on a punishing show at Cellarmen’s in Hazel Park.
Pestilent Reign – Pyres
This is a well produced, cohesive, and incredibly competent album which stands proudly on its own outside of a large pack of forgettable technical wankery with zero substance.
Galvanizer – Sanguine Vigil
Be warned that it is highly addictive and you might need to detox to come away from it safely
Hellish God – The Evil Emanations
It is really the classic sound from the late 90’s that they most call forth.
Bleeding Gods – Dodekathlon
The production value and symphonic flourishes serve only to allow this monster room to roam and destroy
Golgothan Remains – Perverse Offerings To The Void
This is no work of kind folk, this is evil in its purest form.
