Morgengrau – Blood Oracle (Out of Ideas Metal)
Death metal. What else can one say about it? Nothing really, unless the genre learns to move along, and some bands have done that for sure. But far too many are stuck still doing the old thing. Rickety, crotchety, drooling. The old school style, with new production, is that what it takes? What solace […]

Ghastly – Death Velour (Finnish Death Metal Tho)
Man that Finnish death metal sound. How I forgot! How I could go on about it forever, though this is only the second band in memory I liked from Finland. Out of any country plugging the death metal hole till bursting, Sweden is the one that consistently gets the attention. Not because it’s all so good, […]

First Winter (Retro Cold War Horror)
Wow it’s been so long I’ve played a game like this, and to see someone capture an era I actually lived so accurately just, uhhh… First Winter is a survival/puzzle horror mash from indie developer and programmer Dan Sanderson, whose previous work includes three titles prior to this, and who I assume probably lived in the 1980s. […]

Abhor – Occulta religiO (1920s Organ-Grinder Metal)
I love this cover, just love it. But my love stops there. because I had heard of Abhor before, and I wasn’t excited then, still not very excited now. In the past they were the usual “true Norwegian” type of black metal, only not from Norway. But they’ve been around since 1995, an impressive […]

VAHRZAW – Husk (Like Warsaw But Less Metal)
Good one guys, going with the spelling variant on a Slavic city, in this case Warsaw, or at least I assumed that was the idea (I was wrong). And since just everyone is talking about it, let’s consider for a second that scray [sic] art by the oh-so-great Luciana Nedelea, whose work you’ve probably encountered quite a […]

SINISTRO – Sangue Cássia
I’m either just getting more emotionally biased as I age, or this band’s style is one of the directions in which metal needs to go come on now get with it. I don’t recall ever hearing of SINISTRO until this moment, well not this exact moment, but this point in time let’s get existential. Their label, Season […]

Ilsa – Corpse Fortress (Antifa But Not Nazi Metal)
You know I can’t remember the last time I heard of a band coming from Washington DC I really cared about. I can’t remember the last promo I received from any band in the area. The place always seemed a musical pit of despair, at least the last time I wandered the streets. All I […]

The Grotesquery – The Lupine Anathema (Big Words For Werewolves)
I’m trying to think of the last time I experienced werewolves and death metal coming together for a love child. Maybe it never happened, but I feel like it had to at some point. Well, if not, or if it did and I forgot, time for some new memories. The members of The Grotesquery are separated […]

In Celebration of Violence (Action/Adventure RPG Blood Fest)
This is just such a great game. In Celebration of Violence has been at least getting decent press since its release in February of this year, but it needs a lot more, otherwise the developer/producer behind it, Julian Edison, won’t get that sweet impetus he needs to make some more games son. If you’re looking […]

Slugdge – Esoteric Malacology (Don’t Trick Me Please)
I’ve got a great idea for a horror film title, get this: When Things Get Pretentious. It’s only going to scare true underground junkies (autocrats if you forgot the term), but it will be absolutely terrifying. You are about to witness, a film, about how the best and most cutting-edge of sounds can become, horribly pompous. That can […]
