Kobold – Death Parade (When Will Vintage Thrash Die? Parade)

Kobold – Death Parade (When Will Vintage Thrash Die? Parade)

  Welcome Serbia’s Kobold and their Death Parade, 15 tracks of ass-blistering, face-melting, dick-scalding, heart-burning, finger-gnashing, teeth-crushing, curb-stomped, methhead speed metal. The things I like about Kolbold’s take on the old is that it doesn’t stray from the path of what has come before.  The cover by Željko Manojlović is very 80’s with those Big Brother, […]

Maligner – Attraction to Annihilation (Everything Should Be Burned)

  Lol this is such a goddamn fitting album to review today, it really is. If you’re not aware, this site is so apolitical you’ll swear off any potential party affiliation or political worldview immediately. Keep that crap out of here, unless it’s to start flame wars in the comments so the site gets more hits. […]

Witch Hunt (First-Person Flintlock Horror Pursuit)

  Boy I struggled to figure out some sort of synonym for ‘hunt’ to title this, and ‘pursuit’ is all I had for today, but it’s rather fitting for Witch Hunt. I wish I was a bit smarter while writing this, but I’ve had a long month of job interviews, conferences, and things other than playing […]

Crawl – Rituals (Sweden Does It Again, Basically)

  I feel like I’ve been getting a lot of Swedish metal the past few months. Actually, it’s probably more than I’ve noticed it since it’s been pretty damn good in general. I really need to stop with the italics joke, so let’s see if I can make it through the rest of this. Really I don’t need […]

Gnaw Their Tongues & Crowhurst – Burning Ad Infinitum (Title Ad Infinitum)

Gnaw Their Tongues & Crowhurst – Burning Ad Infinitum (Title Ad Infinitum)

  When I first heard Gnaw Their Tongues I had no idea what to appreciate or what the fuck I was listening to. My feeble mind wasn’t ready to abandon the glittery world of shred guitar solos, crushing breakdowns, and pig squeals. But Gnaw Their Tongues always stuck with me and I know it was […]

Graveyard Keeper (Cemetery Sim That Puts You Into An Early Grave)

Graveyard Keeper (Cemetery Sim That Puts You Into An Early Grave)

  See how clever this site is with colloquialisms? I took that “early grave” idiom and applied it to this game right here about cemeteries! So clever! More clever than Graveyard Keeper, in fact, as much as that fact pulls the bones from my body and places them in the wrong tomb. That’s right, I’m not going […]

Délétère – De Horae Leprae (Canada’s Best Black Metal Band Do You Hear Me?)

Délétère – De Horae Leprae (Canada’s Best Black Metal Band Do You Hear Me?)

  That’s right, I’m going straight literal with the title to this review, because it’s true do you hear me? Don’t even bother tossing names of other Canadian black metal outfits at me, just don’t. Délétère is the only one I want to hear about from now on do you hear me? I actually reviewed a previous release by them […]

TRUCHŁO STRZYGI – Pora Umierać (Polish Death Smash Punk)

TRUCHŁO STRZYGI – Pora Umierać (Polish Death Smash Punk)

  Finally some punk I can legitimately review without feeling like I’m forcing it so this site seems diverse. Leave it to the Polish underground for it to happen, as typical punk submissions are too oiboi for me. Yes, there are also oigirls, but the term doesn’t have the rhyme pattern my exquisite reviewing skills demand, […]

My Big Sister (Soul-Crushing Reality-Infused Ghost Adventure)

My Big Sister (Soul-Crushing Reality-Infused Ghost Adventure)

  There’s been a surge in 16-bit styled games in the indie market, usually of the RPG variety since Squaresoft worship will never die. Was The Secret of Mana really that good? Remember one of the bosses was Santa Claus? Yeah, forget that game. Of course they released some pretty stellar titles otherwise, but were only one of several […]

Demise – De la Manipulación A la Ignorancia (Guerrilla Metal RETURNS)

Demise – De la Manipulación A la Ignorancia (Guerrilla Metal RETURNS)

  Anything from South America that is metal and has at least one mask-wearing member I like to now call “Guerrilla Metal,” because I feel like I’m soaking in a jungle and being shot upon by many machine guns. And I just can’t get enough of all of these bands referring to their following as “hordas.” […]
