The Greek RESURGENCY deliver with "No Worlds… Nor Gods Beyond" their second full-length. After the well received debut "False Enlightenment" from 2012 this band released a demo called "Dark Revival" and a split with the Swedish DESOLATOR in 2011. Compared to "False Enlightenment" there hasn’t much changed in style. The production on "No Worlds… Nor […]
After this underground gem had been released on vinyl by To The Death Records in 2015 it got finally its well deserved treatment on CD. It was unleashed upon this rotten planet by the Swedish label Cryptorium Records which brought us also the extremely great MEGASLAUGHTER box set. LEPROSY was a killer four piece hailing […]
The fourth full-length from Belarus’ one-man band VIETAH continues Antarctis’ trend of lengthy, atmospheric songs. There’s the quiet. There’s the solitude. There’s the musings of our lives. There’s everything you’ve come to expect in a VIETAH offering. "Czornaja Cvil" bleeds melancholy. It begs for attention. It cries out alone in the foggy night. The opening […]
This is an album that was recorded way back in 1996 of the Norwegian band ÖRTH which is in essence the band ARVAS, although the name change was due to the death of Grim (who also played with IMMORTAL and GORGOROTH to name a few). So, it seems the remaining band members decided it was […]
A one song album… yes, ONE song at 45 minutes. In the extreme Metal scene this is not an easy thing to do. And even more difficult to achieve success. Well, here this Swedish duo of hypnotic Black Metal and formed back in 2000 does it in their second album and I must say that […]
INERT is a two-men project founded in mid 2015 with its roots in Spain. Guitarist Xavier then relocated to Sweden and he and Gustavo, responsible for vocals and drums anyway decided to continue their project and have started writing songs for their first EP entitled “Obliteration Of The Self”. The opening track ‘Fake Servant Of […]
It’s a little assumptive and stereotypical to think all Black Metal that comes out of Norway is worthy of the history created by its founders. And for a band with only two EPs and one full-length prior to the new one, you might not expect the band to have grown to the high reaches we’ve […]
Fierce Thrash Metal with a nice Speed Metal edge from Naples, Italy, is what this one man army and undead duo of two programmers are delivering – and if it takes two to deliver decent programmed drumming, please keep this mind for the future, dear Metal scene. The drum programming is actually quite vivid and […]
Death Metal from Sweden. Most of the time you can expect either a NWOSDM clone or something totally different. Now, remember EDGE OF SANITY’s and GRAVE’s debut albums? Yes, they didn’t sound anything like the other bands that came out around the same time and from the same country. Luckily, CREEPING FLESH’s 2016 demo "Scorched" […]
It’s more and more usual to discover bands primarily tagged as “atmospheric” or “progressive” Black Metal, where elements out of the borders of the genre, clean vocals for example, are combined with the standard Scandinavian Black Metal riffs and blast beats. Looking to best selling phenomenons like DEAFHEAVEN or WOLVES IN THE THRONE ROOM I […]
