Mexico is a country full of great artists, from painters, musicians and writers to filmmakers, architects, etc, and it has imported some great Metal acts over the decades. I can’t recall a single underground Metal fan that hasn’t heard about at least 1 iconic Mexican Metal act. From the likes of early CENOTAPH, SHUB NIGGURATH, […]
Almost all reviews I’ve read so far uses phrases such like “Death Metal album of the year” or “best German Death Metal band ever”. At the moment SULPHUR AEON is doubtlessly one of the most praised Death Metal bands and I’m sure with their second full-length the praise will not stop and they will definitely […]
If a band is describing its style as technical and even got shirts printed with the slogan "Technical Death Metal" all sirens are quivering. Or at least my personal antennae, because much too often the term technical is used to disguise the lack of abilities regarding songwriting. One does not simply play a guitar, bass […]
This is the third album of Polish Black Metallers INFERNAL WAR that follows ”Redesekration – The Gospel Of Hatred And Apotheosis Of Genocide” after a period of eight years. This was a very intense album so I advise you to check it out as well (its review somewhere else on these pages might be useful […]
FORGOTTEN TOMB is one of those bands, that changed their style quite drastic, if you compare their first releases with their last three albums. And the band is one of those, that are either being loved or hated. My first album from them was "Songs To Leave", so listening to their current style seems like […]
Even though I have been listening to this album constantly for about a week now it still took me quite a while to find the right words for this review. So, whatever I was typing got erased again rather quickly, because I figured that I would make a complete fool out of me when I […]
After over two decades listening to Death Metal, I am seldom very impatient to hear a new album of a band. It is nice to listen to new material of known bands, but I am more than patient to wait now, until a release is out and falls in my hands. With the new album […]
It was the year of 2013 when German Cthulu worshippers SULPHUR AEON unleashed their first album "Swallowed By The Ocean’s Tide" upon the unsuspecting armies of Metalheads. It raised a lot of dust, for a good reason. "Swallowed By The Ocean’s Tide" was nothing less than a fantastic monument of blackened Death Metal with an […]
There are very few bands that with their debut album were able to alter my mind. After more than 4 decades of Metal exposition I am amazed that such a thing can still be done. Up to this day some artists are able to send s shiver down my spine while listening to their creation. […]
SULPHUR AEON rise again. Back in January 2015 I saw a list of the upcoming and tentative releases from various labels and among the entire list the SULPHUR AEON release was a big excitement as their debut album was a massive release. It literally brought a stroke of freshness out of the old school Death […]
