Decline of the I – Rebellion
You know what’s annoying? Pretentious critics who pull out obscure quotes to verify their grasp of thought. They must be feared, but remember, the only thing we have to fear is fear itself (John F. Kennedy, 1905). Now we’re not trying to make enemies, but it’s been said if you want to make enemies, try […]

Concatenatus – Meditation Through the Inner Vortex
Now here’s something we needed. We were kind of in the mood to feel ultra-elitist, to sound like that friend you hate, the one who pulls out dozens of band names you’ve never heard, all in response to your asking simple questions about a genre or whilst discussing a band. “I like Belphegor, they’re pretty […]

Abusiveness – Bramy Nawii
Well this has been a week of Eastern Europe, hasn’t it? In fact, we have a backlog of tons of stuff from the region, especially Poland. Poland is an interesting bridge, as it were, between the East and the West. Though Eastern Europe was once considered part of Europe long ago, now it’s still considered […]

Chaos Echoes – Transient
Now it’s time to take things to the level where few can reach. The hands of most are weak, their joints feeble, they lack the inner strength to pull themselves up from the middle of the giant web of metal into realms of pure chaos. Upon these upper, silken strands things are much different, all […]

Kratherion – Mantra Lucifer Flagelantes
Seems we’re on something of a black metal trend here as of late, so why not go further with it? One of the things we discussed in our last review was the issue of differentiating between classic black metal and the modern post variety. Yesterday it was the latter, today we step back to the former. […]

Outre – Ghost Chants
Modern-day black metal usually has clear markers; you can look at how it presents itself and know immediately what to expect. This is especially true with post-black metal, where alterations to original themes are sometimes so unusual each band almost becomes a separate genre in itself, perhaps a separate country, or better to say planet, […]

CASSETTE ASSAULT – Bunch of Stuff With Puppy References
Different sort of thing today for you cassette-loving, tapedeck marrying, man-and-machine-legalization fiends out there, but still the plastic you love. In the past CASSETTE ASSAULT features we had something of a theme based on what we selected, but since these cassettes featured here were, first off, random, and second off the only ones we had […]

Tome of the Unreplenished – Innerstanding
And now for something totally esoteric. Different? Entry-level terminology for the uninitiated. This is different, it’s been fashioned from the most ancient of hands, a soul so old it defies the beginnings of the human race. We kind of needed a good bit of that. We’ve had classic black metal recently, some of the Satanic, […]

Sigihl – Trauermärsche (And a Tango Upon the World’s Grave)
Sat on this one for awhile. But it was much unlike the usual type of sitting. It wasn’t like sitting on your easy chair, or a lawn chair, or an armchair, it was more like a chair of nails, such as would have been used during the Witch Craze. This would be a useful analogy […]

Corpus Christii – PaleMoon
If there’s one country that’s supremely diffuse in terms of its representation of various types of black metal, it’s Portugal, which is surprising considering its relatively small size in comparison to most of Europe. But in spite of its smaller landmass, hugging the ocean, or Spain, whichever direction it chooses to embrace, it’s filled with […]
