Wall of the Eyeless – Through Emptiness

It is always very interesting to review a demo…sometimes they surprise and most of the times they disappoint but Wall of the Eyeless seems to be a bit different. Their four track demo ‘’Through Emptiness’’ is a focused one, with a lot of acoustic guitar intro. This Russian/Swedish duo ‘Wall of the Eyeless’, [...]

Degradation – Juggernaut

I had not heard Chicago thrash metallers Degradation before, and when I got their material, I was thrilled as it has been sometime listening to a classic thrash act. The excitement prompted me to instantly check their album Juggernaut and get into their 8-song mix. Just taking some time to introduce the band – Formed [...]

Texas trio, Enormicon, have released their full-length album, Storm of Swords, and their sound basically lies in the range of stoner and psychedelic metal.

As a four-piece Norwegian black metal band comprised of an impressive line-up that includes current and former members of 1349, Gorgoroth, Dodheimsgard and Mayhem; Nidingr now offers forth their latest infernal hell storm in the form of Wolf Father. Although this Norwegian band started way back in 1992, this is the first time I am [...]

Cryptborn – In the Grasp of the Starving Dead

Twenty-eight minutes of down-tuned madness that is reminiscent of old Swedish style rather than Finnish; Finland’s Cryptborn debut In the Grasp of the Starving Dead features seven brand new songs vocally fronted by Maveth’s Christbutcher, and also two more members of the brutal outfit; to a total of five. Although, Cryptborn is from Finland; it [...]

Cruxifiction – The Coming

Black Metallers from France, Cruxifiction have released their full length album, The Coming. I could not check their demo, The Great Agony, which was released in 2007. I am sure it must have been on the same lines as this latest release.
What stands out about Cruxifiction is their completely no-frills approach to black metal, [...]

Goregast – Desechos Humanos

FDA Rekotz is set to release Desechos Humanos from death-grind surgeons Goregast. The third album from these German maniacs is a direct attack against humanity’s rotten core. The reviews for their previous albums Vive El Animal and La Ravencha are really good. I did dip into a few of their tracks on the previous releases, [...]
