Reverie – Bliss
Sometimes you have to wonder who selects the genre tags on Encyclopaedia Metallum. Is it the bands themselves or some random fools? Seriously, we’d like to know, because we’ve never had to do such a thing ourselves, so not knowing we’d like an explanation. The primary reason is it often seems so very wrong upon […]

Black Wing – … Is Doomed
So uhhhh yesterday I went hiking to Wallace Falls State Park in Washington. Completely surreal. Felt like at any moment, some horde of Uruk-hai were going to take away the ring bearer. All you could hear was the waterfall and some distant birds chirping occasionally. I only saw two fucking animals – a squirrel and a […]

Howls of Ebb – The Marrow Veil
It’s quite likely, if you’re reading this or have been here before, that you’re a weirdo. That’s how people usually end up at Deaf Sparrow, or at least checking out the things we cover, whether or not they pay attention to us in particular. The underground is filled with total weirdos, people on the outskirts […]

Blaze of Perdition – Near Death Revelations
It’s always tragic when a band has to experience death, not simply screaming about it or symbolizing it via music. When real death hits anyone, how to cope? Finding life in those ashes can be difficult for most, nearly impossible for others, if possible at all. For music it can be a total tragedy. Certain […]

Many Arms & Toshimaru Nakamura – S/T
It’s sadly been awhile since we’ve reviewed something from the highly underappreciated Public Eyesore, or as we like to lovingly call them “The Pub”, “The Eye”, or “The Sore”. The guy has an obsession, or perhaps a fetish, or perhaps a dedication if we’re speaking lovingly, of experimental music in its essence. Free jazz, power electronics […]

Nyseius – De Divinatione Daemonum
You know what good black metal has and often lacks? Atmosphere. Every year this guy right here (editor) pulls out Transilvanian [sic] Hunger not for the vocals, not for the incessant drumming, but for those guitars. They flow like brittle snow around cold rocks in a chasm, and it just makes this time of year […]

Demona – 2015 EP
There’s a lot of crossover in speed and thrash metal, and really it’s always been that way. Sometimes there’s a blurring of lines, but thankfully it’s permissible, and never has been confusing. This is because both genres feed into and off of each other quite well. Now, we’ve received a lot of thrash over the […]

Nechochwen – Heart of Akamon
Alas, after many, many years… They have returned. I had a dream – a dream where I was able to effortlessly roam the internet in search of greater music. I came across three trials. The first was finding a way to acquire good music. I tried Pandora, Last.fm, and Myspace genres (I was young and […]

Crest of Darkness – Evil Messiah
First glancing at this cover, you’ll probably giggle. It sends out black metal signals like the lone captain of a sinking dinghy shooting up flares. “Look at me, help me, I am here!” he screams into the black night, surrounded by nothing but a sea so vast the chances of anyone seeing his desperation is […]
Adversarial \ awesome death metal in the classical sense but yet not because it's new \ blackened death metal \ Canada \ Dark Descent Records \ death metal
Adversarial – Death, Endless Nothing and the Black Knife of Nihilism
Well, this band has already started off on their path of adversariness with an album title that’s probably going to break our system coding. First for its length, and if that doesn’t do it, then for its meaning. Nihilism, the rejection of principles, especially moral principles or those stemming from religion, the rejection of love, […]
