It wasn’t long for REVEL IN FLESH to return with a second album after last year’s masterpiece "Deathevokation". Which naturally means that they haven’t changed too much. Again Mr. Dan Swanö did the mixing and the mastering and again he did it very fine. Juanjo Castellano contributed to the album with another great piece of […]
Night is not a constant; it can always get darker when you leave the city and spend the night in the woods. In this sense, there are degrees of darkness. It can always get darker, but honestly, our flawed human empiricism won’t be able to tell the difference from a cave miles below the earth’s […]
This just in! The cenobites from Clive Barker’s Hellraiser have formed a new band! The nightmarish and generally nonsensical / chaotic nature of the music certainly brought that association to mind. No, this is not a War Metal hybrid, whirlwind Cyber Death or Orthodox Black Metal. TERRA TENEBROSA can generally be described as methodical Avant-Metal […]
Wow… the Finnish national hymn ‘Finlandia’ gets a whole new treatment in the hands of Diabolus Sylvarum; a guy who runs a Black Metal band called ARSONIST LODGE. He rapes it shamelessly, which is a bit scary I think (and Sibelius weeps). ARSONIST LODGE is a pitch-black bastard child of Diabolus Sylvarum that he has […]
England’s Doom Rock / Metal flagship CATHEDRAL called out "The Last Spire" to be their final studio album after 23 years of dooming and glooming. Unfortunately with the fading of this headstrong four piece, we will lose one of the last few self-contained and unique bands from this genre. Fortunately on "The Last Spire" mighty […]
Modern, definitely 2013 progressive and technical Death Metal… eh, well, anyone here on Voices From The Darkside that primarily supports extreme old school Metal of a couple of different sub-genres? ATLANTIS CHRONICLES comes from France, and that’s exactly the definitive enough description above I would personally tag ATLANTIS CHRONICLES with, without hesitations anyway. In fact, […]
Are you prepared?! Are you morbid?! MORBOSIDAD is!! If you are a fan of BEHERIT, BLASPHEMY and SARCOFAGO then MORBOSIDAD IS for you! They have already released 2 full-lengths considered by some to be early classics: "Profana La Cruz Del Nazareno" ("Profane The Cross Of The Nazarene") and especially "Cojete A Dios Por El Culo" ("Fuck […]
The return of the entity known as CENTURIAN could appear surprising; indeed, the band changed name a few years ago, assuming the NOX moniker to deliver a super first full-length and a rather disappointing (im my modest opinion) MCD. With the CENTURIAN reboot, the band unleash a fantastic effort full of a rejuvenated inspiration in […]
With YOTZ # 34 ("year of the zombie" – for those who don’t know how Blood Harvest Records count their release) Blood Harvest Records offers us a recording from February 2007 of Mexican based Death Metal outfit INFINITUM OBSCURE. This band already released a few other recordings of which their debut album "Internal Dark Force" […]
Mexican outfit INFINITUM OBSCURE were quite active in finding a label to (re-)release their old stuff. They found Blood Harvest Records to release their already in 2007 recorded 7" EP "Obscuridad Eterna" and are now back with the re-release in form of a nice packed 10" EP (including a new coverpainting provided by T. Ketola) […]
