EXPANDER – Endless Computer (Byte Metal)

EXPANDER – Endless Computer (Byte Metal)

I want to see more damn computers in underground music. I don’t mean computers as instruments, we’ve had that awhile, I mean computers for aesthetics. It’s time we begin to embrace our computer lives and accept that, yes, the machines are coming and will take over, and what better way than music that speaks of this coming […]

Cadaveric Incubator – Sermons of the Devouring Dead (WAKE UP)

Okay, everyone, it’s time to wake the hell up. Get up! Out of your beds! Out of work! Stop whatever you’re doing right the hell now and listen to some death metal crud.

Heir – Au Peuple de l’Abîme (Post-Suicidal Black Metal)

I swear if this label ever sends me anything bad the world is going to end that particular day. Les Acteurs de L’Ombre Productions is, again, the absolute heir of all that was the kingdom of black metal in France. Since its inception in 2009, I have never failed to be amazed by the label’s output. It’s the only […]
