WIND HEARSE was a Black Metal band from Russia and active between 1991 and 1997. In this time they released a demo and a full-length, both in cassette format only. Their full-length called “Witch’s Arrows” was finally released back in 1996, shortly before they disbanded. Their style takes us back in time to the years […]
In 2014 Tchort and Blood Pervertor left CARPATHIAN FOREST to concentrate on their own new entity THE 3RD ATTEMPT, and they are now ready with their first full-length abomination. Together with the already mentioned 2, we have Ødemark and Tybalt, so quite a seasoned assembly Dark Essence Records has unleased upon us. I stumbled across […]
From a small town, more or less in the middle of Spain, a tad South-East of Madrid, hails ONIRICOUS which released this album on CD on Razorback Records in 2013. The time has now come for a LP release by the fellow Spanish label Equinox Discos, a thing that I find great, as the album […]
Beware for the age of Cthulhu has come again! I have sensed his thoughts, I have heard his voice and it’s calling me (calling me)! A choir of monks is singing for him and you can already hear his tentacles playing the ancient seven-stringed electric guitar. Then the other demons join the incantation with a […]
After the mighty "Voyage Towards Abhorrence" debut by these high class German Death Metallers and the great "Reincremation" split (together with IMPUREZA, ARSONIST and SUDDEN DEATH) silence followed. Finally this is broken and in a very unexpected way. "Enigmatic Symmetries" shows the band developed in a darker and more morbid way. The four tracks still […]
"Who the hell are INGURGITATING OBLIVION", you might ask yourself. Well, remember the crazy East Frisians OF TREES AND ORCHIDS? The band changed their name as it didn’t represent their stylistic approach anymore. That is: brilliant technical Death Metal in the vein of MORBID ANGEL and IMMOLATION. "Cadence…" is their contribution to a split CD […]
At last! Their latest effort "Voyage Towards Abhorrence" was realeased aeons ago but finally we can torment our ears and minds with more addictive Death Metal beastialities from one of my favourite German gas giants. "Continuum Of Absence" starts with ‘Eternal Quiescence’, the (in its beginning) most straight forward sickness on this album. It’s a […]
Zaragoza in Spain is the home of the comparatively new trio INEXORABLE END. Up to now, there’s just three songs of them available, but these are recorded in two versions each. One of them in their Spanish mother tongue, the other in English. The recent tape release “Voices Of A Frozen Heart” features both versions. […]
I heard a few things about LUCIFER’S CHILD during the last quarter of 2014. The news mentioned it was a new project created by members of highly acclaimed and legendary ROTTING CHRIST and NIGHTFALL. Some previews of their early material showed a mix of the classic Greek Black Metal trademark sound and melodic Death Metal. […]
Just in case you are wondering about the strange title – WEDERGANGER are hailing from the Netherlands and they use their native tongue. The band’s name can be translated as revenant or ghost / undead. Personally I always considered a band using a different language than English as some kind of refreshing aspect to the […]
