Ulvik – Last Rites | Dire Omens (Mountainous 19th Century Blackened Folk Doom)
This one came in late, but there’s time, and I had to make time just glancing the cover. There’s a sense of history here, and sense of noticing details and remembering things forgotten. What appears a simple image of a rotting dog face, or something like that, is enclosed in a border only the […]

Fractal Generator – Convergence (Experimental Blackened Math Metal)
Ah, this reminds me of how much I loved…calculus. You heard me right. I loved that complex combination of symbols that looked like fucking magic wards to the uninitiated. The fools! If only they understood the true depth of calc! So with a band referencing math that even PhDs have trouble explaining, and titling […]

Serpent Corpse – Blood Sabbath (Punkened Death Metal)
A new band with their first full-length? A disaster for some, a past they can never escape for others. “Yeah, but that first album was so good…” For Serpent Corpse, however, this would rather seem to be their advantage since they fit right in there with practically the entire death metal fray of the […]

Pukewraith – Banquet of Scum (Grimy Death Metal)
I frequently misuse the word ‘puke’ and refer to practically everything we review here under that blanket term, as well as probably using ‘filth’ too much, but if it upsets one ex-con Xbox player, eh, who cares? So the great thing about Pukewraith is the word is already covered and I don’t have to […]
cacophonic death metal \ Canada \ Fernando Giotefeli \ Giotefeli Anti Arte \ Me Saco un Ojo Records \ Rotted Life
Décryptal – Sabazios Culte (Cacophonic Death Metal)
Well these guys are certainly a spooky mystery. I have no clue where they came from but with the amount of cacophony they wretch I should! I know they’re form Canada, but figuratively speaking with the type of eerie, dragging death metal these guys play it’s only from the ground they could have possibly […]
Abomination Hammer \ Canada \ corrupted black metal \ Hells Headbangers \ Manitoba \ Winnipeg
Nocturnal Departure – Clandestine Theurgy (Corrupted Black Metal)
This one surprised me. In many ways it features forms that are quite standard to black metal as a whole, specifically second-wave, yet there are variations that, though they’d at first seem only slightly atypical, are instead strangely unique. Canada’s Nocturnal Departure relies heavily on the old school, but the new school they’re peddling […]

Detherous – Unrelenting Malevolence (Blatantly Blatant Death Thrash)
For a band that’s been around for almost a decade, I feel bad I didn’t know of Detherous until now. Why? Whatever, we’ll forget that mystery and instead focus on the blatant. This is blatantly death thrash. I’ve said it many times, sometimes you need your music as such. Just totally fooking obvious. I […]
Artoffact Records \ British Columbia \ Canada \ epic metal \ Fancypants Design Co. \ post-goth \ post-metal \ power metal \ progressive metal \ Vancouver
Ritual Dictates – No Great Loss (Epic Post-Goth Power Metal)
I came upon Ritual Dictates by random chance when their first full-length was released to little fanfare, in fact it was more fanhate, there was little fare to be had. Consisting of two dudes from a slew of bands I don’t care to mention, it seemed sadly an aborted brainchild superpoop from a one […]
Canada \ Me Saco un Ojo Records \ mucosal death metal \ Quebec \ Quebec City
Sedimentum – Suppuration Morphogénésiaque (Mucosal Death Metal)
Nice I just came up with another new genre tag. I mean, let’s face it, these days there’s just too much out there and too much melding of styles to just say “death metal” and expect people to get it. So like, if we call Canada’s Sedimentum as such, where does that leave us? […]
Canada \ dungeon black metal \ Inferna Profundus Records \ raw black metal
Trembling Void – Demo I (Hodge Podge Raw Black Metal)
Dang can’t remember the last time I reviewed a demo but here we go fools. Usually I avoid them because they’re too raw, not in the aesthetic sense, but the just trash sense. That and they’re often not given a release beyond a homemade cassette drop, unless they have something to prove, or a […]
