Grave Infestation – Carnage Gathers (Lurking Death Metal)
Hmm best death metal band from Canada currently? Probably, yeah. I’ve been on a real fix for this specific type, too: the eerie, lurking kind. It doesn’t pummel, it slowly degrades. It comes from all the dark spaces you dread like a sticky mold, touching all over your skin until it rots away. There’s […]

Apartment 7A (Underappreciated Possession Horror)
At first glance, Rosemary’s Baby prequel Apartment 7A looks identical to The First Omen: period legacy prequels to classic demon child movies, set six years apart; both by female directors, dealing with unwanted occultist-engineered pregnancies. They may walk the same path, but The First Omen stumbles, clumsy and shouting, while James’s film dances with […]

Caustic Phlegm – Purulent Apocalypse (Fungal Decomposition Death Metal)
I decided to go the route of pure disgust this week with music reviews. Case in point, Scumripper (see review prior to this one), next case in point, Scotland’s one-man viral plague of diseased myconid mucous, Caustic Phlegm. I think one of the best things about this band is I can pretty much get […]

Scumripper – For a Few Fixes More (Addict Blackened Thrashpunk)
I don’t think I’ve ever heard an album open as strong as Scumripper’s For a Few Fixes More. Everything about it arranges a stage they promptly set ablaze, consuming the audience in a gigantic fireball fed by the stagnant air of each track. I mean, what do you expect from something that opens with […]

Gig of the Damned (Drag Queen Slasher Fiction)
Oh, it’s been a while since I’ve enjoyed a book (literally)! This was a joy to bring me back to my good old hobby. Phrique took that slasher style read, where one crazy ass kills a whole bunch of people in a row, and added the most wonderful and fresh take on it. The […]

The First Omen (Overhyped Supernatural Horror Fail)
Like it or not, mainstream devil movies are back in a big way. Starting with last October’s Exorcist reboot, movies like Immaculate, Longlegs, The Exorcism, Late Night With the Devil, The Pope’s Exorcist, The Deliverance, and more have made it the best multiplex era for The Dark One since the late-1990s millennial panic. Call […]

Fell Omen – Invaded by a Dark Spirit (Armor-Clad Dungeon Metalpunk)
I should have probably shown one, or all, of the band photos for Fell Omen, because it more accurately summarizes what you’re in for. Let me give you an idea in words, which likely don’t do them justice: big guy, suit of armor, motorcycle, sword. Though we’re given no clarity beyond that, I’d bet […]

Obscureviolence – Refuting the Flesh (Darkened Death Metal)
I never seem to have trouble coming up with genre tags (primarily for my own personal enjoyment), but this new power trio sure gave me a challenge! Featuring members of Horror God, Russia’s Obscureviolence seem, at first, to combine two popular genres as has been the fad this past decade, the black and the […]

Demon Sacrifice – Under the Blacklight of Divine (Supernatural Punk)
There’s a number of things I like about this EP. From the somewhat minimal cover evoking evil witch stuff, to the fluid, bloody logo nicely accented with an upside-down cross and candelabra, to the strange inclusion of Celtic-type knots, to the awkward English title of Under the Blacklight of Divine, I just knew in […]

Naked Whipper (Blackened Anti-Christian Perversion Metal)
Uh oh, the perverse beasts are back. I can’t remember the last time I heard of Germany’s Naked Whipper, but here we are again. They were around before this site was even birthed, bringing their lusty-demon type of perverted blasphemy years before I even knew their name and years before anyone was riding that […]
