Canada \ filthy death metal \ Hells Headbangers \ non-regressive \ skeletal army cool
Man can Hell’s Headbangers get any better at picking out these random, new bands that absolutely slay? I guess that’s why they do what they do so well. Someone there’s got a knack. So we’ve got Expunged here today, who self-describe their style as, quote “sick, rotten, coated in filth death metal surrounded by […]
Canada \ Costin Chioreanu \ heavy metal \ melodic death metal \ melodic thrash metal \ Ontario
Yaaaaaaaaahhhhh (with a bit of fluctuating). That’s practically how all these albums start out, those scream from the heart vocals, I just can’t mimic the “epic” guitars and such properly with words so add those too. But damn does it feels moderately good this time for some reason WTF. I’m not sure I can […]
Canada \ Mario Lopez \ Ontario \ sword guy is cool though \ thrash metal
I like sword guy. I thought sword guy would bring me some thrash fire. But he brings more of a spark that could, some day, ignite into bigger flames of thrash. That requires hands willing to work for it, however, and the work needs to be personal. It is necessary to grind the thrash […]
animation \ Baba-Yaga properly pronounced \ Canada \ folk horror \ folklore \ horror \ National Film Board of Canada \ NFB
The horror industry should really dig into folklore more, from anywhere, and lose the jumpscares. I don’t mean dig in there, steal some stuff, and then claim it as one’s own, I mean let it reveal itself. Case in point this recent, animated, true-to-the-original short, Bone Mother, which draws on Russian folklore, in particular […]
Canada \ for fans of \ for fans of metal \ metal \ Therese Lanz
Now here’s a nice example of “for fans of.” Usually when I see that phrase in a promo I groan and the whole album is already in my head before I start. Sleepwraith are entirely new. You’ll find almost nothing about them aside from ramblings about this very S/T on sites like ours. That’s […]
Canada \ glass in eyes thrash \ Quebec \ Svart Records \ thrash metal \ Velio Josto
Lol holy shit if Velio Josto‘s sick cover doesn’t say “yes you will like this,” then you deserve some glass to the eyes, and ears because you don’t deserve to listen either. I saw some complaints or something about the art but I won’t even bother trashing that drivel. Warsenal are a fifth-edition textbook […]
Canada \ depression \ Drofnosura \ Dusty Ray \ halp mi so sad \ Ontario \ sludge \ sludge metal \ Toronto
Now and again I come across something like Voidfever and I’m like “where did everyone go?” As the skeletal-faced, hooded thing on the cover by Dusty Ray devours the eyes and pulls inward you become introspective, sullen, and separated. Is it just me listening to this? Why though? It troubles me when a great […]
British Columbia \ Canada \ Chong Wizard \ comic books \ Marvel \ our first hip hop review nice \ rap \ Rob Israel \ Vancouver
There’s something far more potent lurking in Canada (Vancouver, BC specifically) than mere moose, hockey, or maple syrup. What could possibly hit harder than those two? Why, it’s none other than your friendly neighborhood DJ Chong Wizard, of course, who’s probably Deadpool’s favorite hip hop producer yo. While a comic book motif isn’t exactly […]
Canada \ doom metal \ electronic fart \ funeral doom \ Iron Bonehead Productions \ Malsanctum \ the other way \ two-minutes to the funeral
Well, here it is, likely the first time something from Iron Bonehead Productions actually depresses me in the other way. I prefer the “why does the human race exist?” type of depression, but this is more of a “why was this album released?” sadness. Now, please pause, for I have already started this on an […]
black metal \ Business for Satan \ Canada \ Canada's best black metal band \ Délétère \ do you hear me? \ don't try to prove me wrong \ Pierre Périchaud \ Quebec \ Sepulchral Productions
That’s right, I’m going straight literal with the title to this review, because it’s true do you hear me? Don’t even bother tossing names of other Canadian black metal outfits at me, just don’t. Délétère is the only one I want to hear about from now on do you hear me? I actually reviewed a previous release by them […]
