Cannibal Corpse – Chaos Horrific
Don’t mistake their longevity for complacency: This Cannibal Corpse is still hungry. VERY hungry.
Midnight – Let There Be Witchery
This is Midnight at its prime. It has enough of the blackened punk/speed junkie mix with a dose more of musicianship, and blackened undertones.
Hayduke’s Top 50 0f 2021
Enjoy Hayduke’s Top 50 of 2021 list.
Capra – In Transmission
In Transmission is perhaps the most immediate album I’ve heard all year. I feel like I’m front row at a show and only years spent developing self control have saved my couch from being turned into kindling in a living room mosh session.
Kardashev – The Baring of Shadows
They know what they’re doing, and they are executing their craft in the most passionate of ways.
Sacred Reich – Ignorance/Surf Nicaragua/The American Way
That was how things rolled back in the day folks, along with a lot of tape trading, pen pals and obscure handwritten zines that would be distributed by the most strange ways…
Anaal Nathrakh – Endarkenment
…strap in and listen up as Hayduke X (MoshPitNation), VUK (The Metal Wanderlust), ProgCaveOgier (The Metal Wanderlust), Gos (Black Metal Daily, MoshPitNation, Order ov the Black Arts) and Dex (Black Metal Daily) perform a surgically precise track-by-track dissection and give this apocalyptic beast the attention it deserves… for we have entered the age of ENDARKENMENT.
Riot – Rock World
If anything, look at Rockworld as an enjoyable primer for the next Riot V record. Mark Reale (R.I.P.) would be proud.
Killswitch Engage – Atonement
an authentic and powerful feeling which allows for the 11 skilfully crafted tracks to develop their own personality.
Sacred Reich – Awakening
straight-forward, groove-based thrash with occasional bursts of pummeling speed
