RITUAL SUICIDE is a band from the Ukraine that’s so kvlt that they don’t even have a Facebook page, they don’t want their stuff to be available digitally or promotion of any kind. If you ask me, that’s promotion in itself, no matter how ridiculous and lame, but promotion nonetheless. Anyway, "Consecration Bound In Cruor“ […]
In spite of the year of formation, 1994, I’ve never heard about PSICORRAGIA from Lima, Perú. Surely they didn’t get a sharp hype for their first album "La Pasión De Lo Mortal", released in 2001. Between that one and the new full-length they have only produced two EPs, so I wonder if their songwriting is […]
The last time these guys released an album was five years ago. The last time NIDINGR passed by in my playlist was last week and it had nothing to do with this review. This Norwegian band put out their fourth album after "Sorrow Infinite And Darkness" in 2005, "Wolf-Father" in 2010 and the excellent "Greatest […]
Reading about LUNAR AURORA I noticed, this band has been bothered in interviews or reviews constantly with one statement / question: “With what band would you and your style most likely line up with?” Most of the re- and interviewers answer their questions immediately themselves. By dropping names like EMPEROR, CRADLE OF FILTH or SECRETS OF […]
Since 1994, Germany’s LUNAR AURORA traipsed through the wilderness of Black Metal with solid footing until their split in 2012, which is a nice accomplishment of nine studio albums. Their take on solid Black Metal, with a little bit of keyboards through in for good measure, held firm in their legacy. The third full-length "Of […]
2016 was a very prolific year for DESTRÖYER 666 – they toured a lot, they had their share of internet-based controversy and, last but not least – released their long awaited album "Wildfire", 7 years after the previous one. Even though it seems that each D666 album so far was a success in the eyes […]
GRAVESTONE is a new project from Sweden including members of the bands ENTRAILS and SAGA INCENDIA. They unleash their first beast in form of "Rotten Kill" via Raw Skull Recordz now and I must admit that these three tracks are the best old school Death Metal tracks I have heard for a while. The opener […]
Collaborations don’t happen all that often in Metal. They happen, but they’re few and far between. Unless you’re CRYOSTASIUM. This fifth collaboration is with Saint Petersburg, Russia’s one-man project ABIGORUM. Of course, CRYOSTASIUM is a one-man project also, based out of Boston, Massachusetts. The melding of two forces is always exciting, allowing both bands to […]
It’s been a while since the last full-length album from MASS HYPNOSIA saw the light of day. About six long years passed by till the horde’s second effort finally hit the streets and the trio unleashes some new fresh’n’bloody chunks for the Metal fanatics around the globe (apart from several split tape releases and compilation […]
Hailing from Divinópolis (Brazil), NECROBIOTIC is a Death Metal band formed in the first half of the 90s. Inactive for 10 years, they’ve reformed in 2008 and from there they’ve not stopped. Their new stuff was released by Misanthropic Records the last year and is called “The Extinction Of Faith”. Their musical proposal consists in […]
