Succumb – XXI (Philosophy Metal)
Oooohhh, tasty, tasty, tasty be this. First thing, released partially by The Flenser. Second thing, wow. To be wowed anymore I need to be challenged and surprised. Well, hard to challenge me so just stick with surprise. Make it a jump scare of riffs. I want riffs to bend mental states, I want the […]

Severed Boy – Tragic Encounters (Body Horror Death Doom)
Well here’s a repulsive crusher I can utilize to summon various references to awful things of the human body. I figured with the dejected lump of grief flesh on the cover it would be so, but sometimes you don’t know. Cover art is only the beginning of the journey, never the end. Featuring two […]
blackened doom metal \ Caligari Records \ Czech Republic \ Czechia \ death doom
Můra – Doom Invocations and Narcotic Rituals (Opium Addicted Death Doom)
Lol these filthy shits. I can’t remember the last time I reviewed a Czech band but I’m not going to bother to look because these guys are all that matter at the moment. I often wish blackened metal, of any attached genre, would just slow the hell down now and then. Really does it […]

Perihelion Gnosis – Syzugial Summoning (Young Lad Death Doom Mastery)
I love primitive art if done right, and yes this would be an example. There’s a certain crudeness to this type of style that in the hands of a master speaks like a dejected sociopath scribbling esoteric nonsense during study hall. Perihelion Gnosis, in only a mere two tracks, makes it clear he’s easily […]

Ritual Mass – Abhorred in the Eyes of God (Some Death Metal Again)
Let’s finish off my choice cuts in music this week with some rotting death metal. Angry, masculine vocals, visions of torment, riffs that sound like new songs the second way through (even though there are only four tracks), etc. There’s no better way to unwind, now and then. Like a mutually-agreed-upon backyard boxing match, […]
Caligari Records \ heavy metal \ Italy \ Mariya Popyk
Marthe – Sisters of Darkness (I Believe in Heavy Metal Again)
Sometimes something so short and simple can be so freaking powerful. Though calling this a demo is a bit inapplicable to what is really a beyond-EP length freaking beast out of nowhere. Heavy metal, doom, and all that sort of thing are so often beaten into the ground by the templates utilized by most […]

Sign of Evil – Psychodelic Horror (Blackened Goth Punk, I Think)
Phew almost missed this one I say. It just so happened that the limited 7″ promo came in el email and I was like wut how I have no hear? Whatever, here it is anyway, whatever it is, I really don’t know to be honest. So Chile is no stranger to some of the […]
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 […]

Obduktio – Ihmiskunnan Viholliset (Crude Rude Puke Punk)
I can’t recall a nice do-over of punk with some blackened crust from Finland. Most of what I get from the country with supposedly the toughest language in the world is black metal or, ugh, some of that Finnish hardcore-like-it’s-1985 scene kid blather. Obduktio was a welcome addition to my “you should listen to […]

Label EXPOSED – Caligari Records
Well, it’s been awhile since we did one of these, in fact back before the new site became active, so it has to have been about three or four years now. And what a fitting reunion! We have here, that’s right, a label exposure for Caligari Records, owned and run by the former owner/editor of […]
