Æpoch – The Scryer
…has just enough touch of prog to keep it flowing and interesting.
Dark Helm – Hymnus De Antitheist
a magnificent display of technical prowess

Exclusive track stream. Check it out now!
Ezerath – Overture: The Heir Apparent
The album is certainly a cohesive whole with an epic feel. There are dark moments, triumphant moments, emotional moments.
Madrost – The Essence of Time Matches No Flesh
In short, The Essence of Time Matches No Flesh absolutely rips, but often in surprising ways.
Apotheon – Mechanically Consumed
I think its also fair to predict, though, that I will continue to pull this album out when a certain mood hits me. It is undeniably intelligent and well done and deserves recognition as such.
Hollow World – Exanimate
The quintet as a whole has taken the five pieces to really compose an album, where other bands play different instruments, or even just play songs. Exanimate is one of those pieces of artwork where the whole is indeed greater than the sum of the parts.
Neck Of The Woods – The Passenger
Every time you think you are feeling the musical groove, they go in the opposite direction, to coerce both shock and elation at where it leads you.
