A Scent Like Wolves – Mystic Auras
Compared to all the cliché bitching, moaning, and depression of the metalcore and emo of the 2000s and 2010s, this mature approach is a breath of fresh air.
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…
ALBUM STREAM: Domestic Terror – Domestic Terror
What I really love about the album are the nasty, dissonant riffs thrown into the mix throughout. That’s what really gets it all cooking for me.
Summoning the Lich – United in Chaos
Summoning the Lich unleashes United in Chaos – a record that takes the standard expectations of melodic and technical death metal and injects it with an insane amount of adrenaline, blazing through a labyrinth of incredibly strong guitar riffage and next-level vocals.
portrayal of guilt – We Are Always Alone
Who is currently doing a better blend of anti-music? Go ahead…I’ll wait.
Carrion Bloom – Heretic Howl
Rugged and abrasive, the album comes at you full on from the moment you press play.
Wharflurch – Shitslime
Have we heard this genre mixing before? Duh. Of course. Here’s the thing though, the changing of said genres is absolutely seamless.
Pursuit – Two Singles
File this one under bands to watch.
Abiotic – Ikigai
Igikai is the product of a group of insanely talented musicians that craved nothing more than to craft their vision into art with palpability, with longevity, and with true passion.
Great Falls/ Throes – Split 7″
‘Immersive’ is probably a good adjective to describe this record as a whole, but I think I’d rather use ‘refreshing.’
