The name SORCERY may still ring a bell in some of our readers minds: one of the many Swedish Death Metal outfits lost in the flood of countless likewise acts back in the early nineties until No Colours decided to make their one and only album available once again to a wider audience. So much […]
Yeah, this is exactly the type of jump-around, corelike mixture that turns worshippers of the traditional and old schoolish Death Metal rules into bulletbelt wearing ignorant monsters, ha! Shortly said all INCANTATION or AUTOPSY heads should better click exit instead of reading further, cause this Belgian double Deathcore package will be your pain in the […]
With all respect to the participating artists, I really would like to know who’s supposed to buy a release like this..?! I mean, all power to Mausoleum Records who had the balls to stick around for twenty long years in this fucked up business by now and who organized this live event on May 10, […]
It’s very cool that there’s still a couple of bands around these days that try to keep the old black flame burning. A flame that more or less had already burned down over the last few years… "True Norwegian Black Metal" used to be a term for raw and grim music, but ever since the […]
Two bands of which I was hoping for a sign of life finally come up with new material and unleash their blasphemous Death Metal brutality together on one hellish split CD! Brazilian beasts OPHIOLATRY who released a cool debut on Gene Palubicki’s now defunct Evil Vengeance Records label in 2002 were vicitims to the KRISIUN-copy-overkill […]
Five years after the very cool Relapse Records four-way split album "Brazilian Assault" two of the bands share a disc for the second time: OPHIOLATRY and ABHORRENCE! I don’t really think there’s still need to introduce any of them to lovers of brutal Death Metal the Brazilian way as both have built up a very […]
Here it is folks, the latest from grandeur Metal masters hailing from Sweden – OPETH!! Many have called them the most talented band, the most creative band and etc. Throw all that out the window cause what we got here is a band that just DOES it and knows that they are good. 8 tracks […]
This release is maybe due to missing guitars as unsuitable as possible for a review in Voices From The Darkside. Nevertheless is this underground debut really impressive due to the absolute pitch-black darkness which had been banned on tape. OPAQUE LUCIDITY is the Ambient Doom side project of two Russian bands which are completely unknown […]
This is a quite unusual project masterminded by Dan Swano, as it features 7 covers songs and the "Odyssey" mini-CD (originally released in 1999) as bonus tracks. From what I learned, this should’ve been the other way round – Dan was asked to record a couple cover tracks to add to the mini-CD re-release, but […]
Honestly spoken I was never interested in the Dutch legend OCCULT, but this reissue of their ’93 demo, the debut album "Prepare To Meet Thy Doom" and "The Enemy Within", both originally released on the meanwhile deceased Foundation 2000 label, disabused me. The band was founded in 1990 by ex-BESTIAL SUMMONING (another mighty Dutch legend, […]
