Nightmare (MKUltra Psychological Slasher Film)
It’s back! One of the sleaziest and ugliest of the slasher classics that oozed their ways onto movie theaters in the early 1980s has finally returned to your home after substandard earlier releases. Romano Scavolini’s Nightmare remains potent stuff and is more timely than ever in the wake of incidents like the Sandy Hook […]

Kontusion – S/T (Raw and Mutilated Death Punk)
Whelp, I died. Another Sentient Ruin smacker. I pretty much guessed that, though, without even scoping the label. Xeroxed cover from a rotted-on-the-insides dumpster nuclear fire? Yep, musical summary right there folks, another example of my “see that cover, this sounds like that” intro. Even better, though, is how the overlapping of lines makes […]

Solipnosis – Síntesis Silenciosa (Reality-Altering Progressive Blackened Speed Metal)
Dang Chile can you calm the fuck down? Christ you’re killing me here with all this awesome stuff! I’m just going to review stuff from Chile now, sorry everyone, this is a 100% Chilean underground site starting today. Well, of course not, but it could be if I keep getting promos like the latest […]

Amid Evil VR (Dark Fantasy VR Death LARP)
What a treat this one is. New Blood Interactive is already legendary for its retro-inspired FPS titles like Dusk or its legendary, oddball pixel horror title FAItH. A personal favorite of mine, and one I played in-depth, as well as reviewed on this site (look it up yourself lazy), is Amid Evil, an FPS […]

True Criminals (Psychopathic Moron Crime Thriller)
What do you get when you take Dumb and Dumber and add ultra crude elements, murder, and humor that leaves nothing to the imagination? Daryl and Dax. No last names, just Daryl and Dax. Two brothers who see an opportunity (to them, and definitely not to anyone else) of taking the blame for a […]

Intéremo – Buried in Rotten Remains (Crunchy South American Swedeath What?)
This one surprised me for one detail. I swore to God and all previous pagan deities and whatever else that this absolutely had to be from somewhere in South America. Chile, I thought. But, nope, actually Sweden! Talk about incorrect! Anyway, this presents a conundrum and something unexpected at the same time. Swedish death […]

The Moth – Frost (Sludge Doom Pop)
What’s with all this tastiness I’ve been receiving recently? Went through a big glut of metal for awhile and suddenly I’ve been seeing stuff from genres outside of the usual darkness. Sludge doom pop? Yeah, I’ll take that, I need that. Gawsh. I’ve sampled their work before, but their latest, Frost, is a dip […]

A Blade in the Dark (1980s Italian Slasher Splatter)
At the beginning of the 1980s, a violent New Wave of Italian splatter began washing up on these shores. Thanks to the international success of the work of Dario Argento, enterprising distribution houses were taking stabs at bringing Eurohorror to the plebes. Before disappearing into a mess of TV movies and bad rehashes of past glories, Lamberto Bava’s flame shone brightly as an emerging new force in Pasta Land. A Blade in the Dark (aka The House with the Dark Staircase), when viewed today, stands tall […]

Maggot Heart – Hunger (Primal Prophetic Post-Punk)
I’ve seen a lot of bands defined as “defying categorization,” a bit ironic, yes, but usually also more than a bit wrong. Oftentimes such phraseology is used as an attempt to sell something from the musical bargain bin. That wretched state of existence where everything you never heard of dwells and attempts to scream […]

Noctomb S/T (Wait There’s More, Southern Blackened Sludge)
Hmm. Well. I don’t think I’ve ever heard a band as versatile as this in any genre. I also like that these guys are from Raleigh, NC, because the scene there has always been this weird mid-level thing for the underground. Not unusual, since it is a college domain, and the expected indie market […]
