Oyaarss – Zemdega
Could have sworn we reviewed Oyaarss’ last release, but apparently it was too old for our little two-year rule when it came in. Well, since we didn’t, here’s a quick summary and introductory statement for his newest album, Zemdega, which we can, in fact, review. So that last one, spectacular, an incredible mix of ambient with […]

Varathron – Untrodden Corridors of Hades
Well, this was a ruined special review. Originally, we intended on dealing out this on Saturday and calling it Satan Saturday, thereby giving us an excuse to post a Satanic something rather on Saturday thereafter and start a new trend no one else would pay attention to. So that fell through, and then we figured, […]
ad noiseam \ add whatever you like to those tags it will probably be right \ breakbeat \ down tempo \ dubstep \ electronica \ Mobthrow
Mobthrow – Unfolded
Must we say it again and ruin the opening of yet another review with repeat phrasing? Ad Noiseam releases some of the most dank as fak music in eletronic in the entire history of the universe, and we’re including in there alien races yet to be discovered that press LPs using bioluminescence. Seriously, anything this […]
black metal \ Colosus \ Kaotoxin Records \ or rather real black metal \ true black metal
Colosus – Blestem
True black metal. How many times have you heard that one? True black metal from Norway. True black metal from France. True black metal from Chicago. True black metal from Harrisonburg, PA. But when has it really been ‘true’ and what does it even mean? Let’s consider the options. Must it sound classic, bold, inventive? […]

crashfaster – superchroma
One of the things that amazes us is everyone assumes we’ve partaken in drugs at some point in our lives, especially when they hear a sample of the kind of music we listen to (browse site, please). “Woooaaah, I bet you see some colors maaaaannnn…” I, the editor, actually had to ask what in the […]
anime \ Claymore \ get it gurl \ Madhouse \ sword girls are awesome
Claymore – Series Review
One of the reasons our media section takes forever to add a review to is because of things like this. Anime, as most of you likely are aware, typically requires a full series watch to truly understand, especially since lots of series tank about midway and you feel like an idiot for even starting, but […]
black metal \ Darkenhöld \ epic metal \ medieval metal that doesn't suck \ Those Opposed Records \ we're serious about that last tag
Darkenhöld – Castellum
Any metal that dares make it obvious it references anything of the ‘medieval’ has entered dangerous territory. It’s a minefield full of active explosives every two inches and you happen to be going through it with a pogo stick. So many times before, as we’ve seen, any reference to swords and sorcery, especially fantasy, have […]
awesome n roll \ death n roll \ Death Valley Driver \ Diminished Fifth Records
Death Valley Driver – Carnivore’s Oath EP
Yeah, these guys. Those italics there add further meaning, and here it means they’ve been around here before, and we’re proud to have them around again. That’s because death n roll isn’t really a very pronounced genre, and there’s a reason for that. Mixing death metal grind with classic hard rock is a real challenge, since in […]
Beak \ Goddamn it to hell post-everything \ post-metal \ post-review \ post-rock \ post-week \ Someoddpilot Records
Beak – Let Time Begin
More like let us begin, this review. What does it take in post-metal? We hit some post-hardcore the other day, mentioning post-black metal in the same breath of a review, so what about this other post? What does it take? Most would argue oddity, pounding riffs, and mixing elements of other genres like sludge. Blacken […]
Don't Live Like Me Records \ Illuminasty Records \ post-hardcore \ SLOTHS \ so much post we don't even need to make the food reference you think we will \ The Ghost is Clear Records
SLOTHS – Twenty Years
Ahh, let us just relax, kick back, put on the fire, turn down the lights, and relax with some nice post. Every now and then you need some post in your life. Honey, please hand me the post, it’s been a rough day, the kids are getting to me, thank you. Dear, I’m not feeling […]
