blackened death metal \ Helter Skelter Productions \ Portugal \ Regain Records \ Sickness 666
Satanized – Baphomet Altar Worship (Scary Tiki Torch Blackened Death Metal)
This is yet another sick promo from Portugal I’ve received these past few months, though the band photos it came with included one with dude creepily crossing two flaming tiki torches omg so scary. In spite of that silliness, you’d still expect sickness upon looking at the cover by Thailand’s “Sickness 666” with, let’s […]
Canada \ experimental black metal \ industrial black metal \ Werewolf Records
Rvbber VVitch – Mastvrbations Malveillantes MMXVII (Violations of the Pee-Pee Region Industrial Black Metal)
Sometimes you can just tell by a band’s name and the title of an album that you’re in for something not just different, but foul to the extreme. So foul you’re pretty sure fingers have violated your most sensitive areas. This is not so easy to do when going for the u-as-v and w-as-two-vs […]
Chad Ferrin \ Crappy World Films \ horror film \ HP Lovecraft \ Laurelwood Pictures
The Deep Ones (H.P. Lovecraft Lo-Budget Stank Horror by Chad Ferrin)
Ask most horror nerds why there’s never been a truly successful Lovecraft adaptation, and they’ll tell you it’s because Lovecraft never described his monsters, but chose to keep them in the shadows, and once you drag something ineffable into sunlight it loses its power. I call bullshit on that for a few reasons. First, […]

Yuki-onna – It’s Useless To Go On (Delicate Harsh Noise Wall)
Ah time to blast some harsh noise wall (HNW) eh, though it irritates me I have to spend precious moments of my day looking for this stuff. It needs to come in the promos and more regularly, without my effort specifically. I continuously find it baffling how little noise bands and labels put into […]
Mexico \ Regain Records \ Shadow Records \ torture dungeon death metal
Sacrocurse – Supreme Terror (Torture Dungeon Death Metal)
Cool now we got some Mexican bile for you. Covered some black metal today, of the dungeon variety, now let’s move it on to death metal of the blackened variety, also possibly in a dungeon of sorts. That depends on your interpretation. Mine would lean in that direction, with echoing, tortured, howling screams rebounding […]
dungeon black metal \ Portugal \ Signal Rex
Mons Veneris – S/T EP (Dungeon Black Metal is Cool)
I guess this is the week I deal out some Central and South American crud. Total chance, but this, along with a new one from Sacrocurse, happened to come in at the same time and neither decided to suck so nice on that count. Few in black metal fandom have not heard of the […]
Diego Spezzoni \ Nine Records \ Poland \ Renaissance doom metal
Evangelist – Ad Mortem Festinamus (Renaissance Doom Metal)
This was certainly not what I expected at all but man did my general surprise turn into feelings of excitement, love, obsession, and pretty much lust. I’d marry these guys and find a way to bear their children, and their children’s children, and so on. I’d declare dual-citizenship and when asked “why do you […]
Awakening Records \ blackened thrash \ Poland \ Roman Strackiewicz
Magnus – Scarlet Slaughterer (Polish Thrash Speed Blood Metal)
I normally avoid reviewing reissues for the simple fact that they’re pretty common knowledge by the time they’re dumped again. Otherwise they wouldn’t be in consideration for reprinting, you know? But reissues of the same shit without a lick of anything new? No go here, I’m afraid, do a Googlite or Bingly search if […]
black death noise \ Godz Ov War Productions \ Poland
TRUP – KE (Ghost of Christmas Black Death Noise)
Oh shit it’s the ghost of Christmas future except it never goes away. So that makes it like a ghost of black death noise I suppose. As far as I can tell one of the freaks in TRUP made the cover of KE with a cheap phone cam and a hoodie but man it […]
France \ Great Dane Records \ melodic death metal \ putrid death metal \ Skaðvaldur
Iron Flesh – Summoning the Putrid (Melodic Putridity Metal of Death)
Now here’s some filthy garbage even an incinerator can’t purge, though I’m still thoroughly confused as to how the band actually writes their name. It’s either “IronFlesh” or “Iron Flesh” and honestly that annoys the piss out of me. But anyway for this Christmas Eve Summoning the Putrid is a nice one since it’s […]
