ambient black metal \ Dodenbezweerder \ Iron Bonehead Productions \ Netherlands \ raw black metal \ woah long title
Dodenbezweerder – Vrees de toorn van de wezens verscholen achter majestueuze vleugels (Holy Shoiss SO LONG TITLE Ambient Black Metal)
Holy piss what a title this is. At least it translates well, but I’ll leave that up to you because I don’t want to waste any more space, goddamn. As I sit here with disease looming, stuff like this just sits so well. Part of me digs that classic black metal sound in almost […]
Chadwick St. John \ Inferna Profundus Records \ Ingrian Black Metal \ Inkshadows \ like get with it \ Russia \ St. Petersburg \ Ulvdalir
Ulvdalir – Hunger for the Cursed Knowledge (Ingrian Black Metal Duh)
Did you even, like, know what “Ingrian Black Metal” was before this review? I know I didn’t, lol. I had heard something of the region of Ingria, but I didn’t realize there was this thing with black metal there until I heard Ulvdalir. I won’t even get into the complex ethnic background of it […]
Canada \ Mario Lopez \ Ontario \ sword guy is cool though \ thrash metal
Raider – Guardian of Fire (Forged in a Meek Spark Thrash)
I like sword guy. I thought sword guy would bring me some thrash fire. But he brings more of a spark that could, some day, ignite into bigger flames of thrash. That requires hands willing to work for it, however, and the work needs to be personal. It is necessary to grind the thrash […]
bleedy girl \ Discos Macarras \ Fátima Ruiz Photography \ La Rubia Producciones \ Lay Bare Recordings \ real pain \ sludge metal \ Spain \ Spinda Records
Rosy Finch – Scarlet (Real Pain Sludge Metal)
I had my doubts about this one at first. I saw the band drop references to 90s grunge acts I’d rather forget, except in a nightmare, and anyone running that kind of line of defense is usually eliminated in a few riffs. Don’t show your age too much, you know? But Rosy Finch are […]
blackened death rock \ Caligari Records \ Dave Varney \ plant metal \ Tennessee
Muscipula – Little Chasm of Horrors (Plant Metal)
Man what a slay this is. There’s almost nothing about these filth clowns, Muscipula, anywhere on the Internets. That’s cool, because I guess it makes it more like dark web metal or something. Actually in this case plant metal. To further that theory the band names themselves off of an obsession over Venus flytraps […]

SWAN MEAT – FLESH WORLD (MMO and Anime Music But Cool)
Man that’s a great cover. It’s like totally anime and MMO or something, but the good stuff only. So that’s one-line intro, or two-line rather, for today because combining anime and MMO music into something worthy of transcending background music is exactly what FLESH WORLD is about. SWAN MEAT I’ve known for some years […]
beast attack \ Iron Bonehead Productions \ kuroccult \ Portugal \ war metal \ zombie metal
Necrobode – Sob o Feitiço do Necrobode (WARsome Metal)
I’m either going through a phase or this type metal is just always good. I know you all call it “war metal” but since it’s so awesome I like to call it “warsome metal.” The term will never stick, but I can claim it as my own. So Necrobode I’ve heard, and they’ve screamed […]
Greece \ Lifeforce Records \ melodic death metal \ melodic doom metal \ melodideathdoom \ Revolver Design \ Vagelis Petikas
On Thorns I Lay – Threnos (Melodideathdoom Lol I’m a Writer)
I’m starting to realize Lifeforce Records has this “thing” with melodic metal bands who absolutely kill in the production and presentation. Sometimes setting a niche for yourself is good, except with pornogrind. Just let those fools have their netlabels and their weird community of drum machine, family-in-the-audience shows. So back to melodic metal, in […]
Antonio Painkiller \ doom metal \ Italy \ like hard rock or something \ Seeing Red Records
SUUM – Cryptomass (Not Total Ass Italian Doom)
Okay Italy, okay, there is hope, after all. In case you missed it, which I know you did, I’ve been ripping on Italian doom metal over the past couple years because pretty much any submission I’ve gotten from the country in said genre has been total ass. The primary reason is this strange tendency […]
Aqualamb Recordings \ Cleveland \ doom metal \ doomgaze \ Lay Bare Recordings \ Ohio \ post-metal \ United States \ wow so vast
Frayle – 1692 (Bitter Doom for the Broken Soul)
Most doom is satisfied thematically with smoking or taking drugs, tossing tabletop RPG dice, witch stuff, or plain sloth. They don’t hide it, either, and with a simple name or cover you know exactly what to expect and you’re both disappointed and not. But as of late female-fronted doom has been a particular favorite […]
