OUTRE – Ghost Chants

OUTRE is a quite new Black Metal entity hailing from Poland, and after an EP and a split release with THAW in 2013, the lads are now ready with their first full-length album, for our listening displeasure. I have it with Black Metal like with most Metal these days, there aren’t many bands or new […]

TRIUMVIR FOUL – An Oath Of Blood And Fire

This young band from the States is one to keep an eye on, because their demo ”An Oath Of Blood” is a wonderful vision of AUTOPSY onslaught! What will draw your attention immediately is the raw and heavy production that resembles a rehearsal of FUNEBRARUM or CORPSESSED. Members are still present or former members in […]

NUNSLAUGHTER – Blood Devil

I think there’s no one out there, who expects US-Cult-Deathers NUNSLAUGHTER to change in any way. The masters of primitive old-school Death Metal (a la MASSACRE in the good old demo days) simply create another couple of cool, blasphemous Death Metal songs after another and do not improve or get worse. This new version of […]

NOMINON – Blaspheming The Dead

After releasing their recommendable debut "Diabolical Bloodshed" in 1999 NOMINON more or less disappeared and it took them 4 years to release another "sign of life", namely the "Blaspheming The Dead" EP, which was released on the Greek Nuclear Winter label in 2003. NOMINON finally are back with their individual brand of Swedish old school […]

NIFELHEIM – Unholy Death

In order to celebrate “A Decade Of Evil Blasphemy”, NIFELHEIM released this 7″ with 2 songs: the title track is taken from the “Unholy Death” demo, whereas this particular version of ‘The Devastation’ is a previously unreleased one! Proudly NIFELHEIM point out: “worst possible sound quality guaranteed” and they’re right! Consequently, this 7″ is for […]

NIFELHEIM – MCMXC – MMIII

Whoever digs the Swedish unholy trinity of violent Black / Thrash / Heavy Metal should get this piece of vinyl as soon as possible!!! To celebrate the infernal existence of the Gothenburg warriors of Metal exclusive previously unreleased demo recordings and live tracks were unearthed and since they are of really good sound quality "MCMXC […]

NAPALM DEATH – Scum

It’s somewhat hard to believe that 20 years have passed since the release of this record… Little did people know that in fact this particular album would change the extreme music world for long. I mean, I remember having been extremely impressed by the March and August ’86 demos that drummer / mainman Mick Harris […]

OSTROGOTH – Too Hot / Feelings Of Fury

Starting off with the great title track this record shows that the band had sadly kinda run it’s course for amazing songs a la earlier penned classics like ‘Paris By Night’, ‘Full Moons Eyes’ and the epic ‘Queen Of Desire’! The guitar solos are fantastic and the vocals are as usual brilliant! But these are […]

PURGATORY / POLYMORPH – Hell Bastards

This piece of green vinyl is already some years old but never the less – quality is what matters so it got reviewed. It was released in 2003 by the German underground zine and label German Underground Crossection (www.guc-area.de) and features the East-German Death Metal bands PURGATORY(www.purgatory666.de) and POLYMORPH (www.polymorph666.de). On the PURGATORY side you […]

STRIBORG – Nefaria / Tragic Journey Towards The Light

When it comes to the topic "sound", I must admit that I am not a sound fetishist. The music itself is more important and accordingly, from my point of view, sometimes a harsh and rough sound fits more than some polished high-end production. But what STRIBORG are offering on this release is, even for a […]
