VI – De Praestigiis Angelorum
Well we had fun this week posting a bunch of stupid crap on Facebook to see how social media works. Our conclusion? It’s fueled by utter stupidity. As the activity climbed, we realized the most boring of us are more interested in crap memes and stupid, catchy phrases, which honestly we kind of took and […]

Tetragrammacide – Typhonian Wormholes: Indecipherable Anti-Structural Formulæ
We’ve had our sampling of the bizarre in the past year, especially that which can be deemed genre-bending, chaotically forged, is-this-reality metal. We’re living in a world of chaos these days, so perhaps it’s all a symbol of the collapse of the human race, a look into the future when eventually everything is meaningless and […]

Valdur – Pathetic Scum
Black metal is often easy to grasp, thematically speaking, as soon as you look at a cover. Ever hear that old mantra about tanks, or as they call them typically, panzers? If thou see a tank on the cover, be warned, for it does not deliver the crushing explosions expected. Well, visually speaking, this one […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

Autokrator – S/T
There are certain people out there giving us a wealth of idiocy to criticize, and it’s great because we can still seem creative. Let it be known that anyone who references Star Wars in a review of any metal band, unless it’s a metal band with a focus on Star Wars, is a complete toolbox, […]

Mefitic – Woes of Mortal Devotion
This is such an awesome name for a band, even though it’s a spelling variation. Who cares? It sounds so Goddamned vile it pleases one to speak it aloud to others. To what are you listening, friend? Mefitic. To which they shirk in horror, knowing only from the staticy bile coming from your ears that […]
