Reekmind – Glints from the Crematorium (Effluvial Death Sludge)
Ah how nice it feels to finally review these guys. Australia’s Reekmind sent a promo my way for their last one, Mired in the Reek of Grief, but I passed for reasons I still regret. Generally I judge on art first, and though the cover was completely dismal (in the best way), it had […]

Hrob – Brána Chladu (Heterogeneitic Brumal Death Doom)
Everything about this album is so damn cohesive, even something so apparently simple as the album title, because nothing escapes the clutches of Slovakia’s Hrob. Yet we have fools out there referring to this as “putrid” because they lack the skill to understand the finer details of a band’s sound. Brána Chladu reveals not […]

Unearthly Rites – Tortural Symphony of the Flesh (Despondent Death Doom Crust)
I was first introduced to Finland’s Unearthly Rites through their debut full-length two years ago, Ecdysis, but man do they lay it all out and mess with your fucking head with their latest, Tortural Symphony of the Flesh. You can expect the same death crust energy they brought prior, but now with an impressive […]

Funelore – The Dissolution of Consciousness (Abandoned Cemetery Funeral Doom)
I chose this one this week not because it was all I had left that was good (actually it was), but technically because it deserved it, and that’s rare with bands of this type. I’ve always been a fan of the funeral subgenre within the greater expanse of doom, primarily because it’s enjoyable to […]

Decrepit Altar – Egregious Defilement (Suffocating Mausoleum Doom)
Promos were pretty thin this week, but don’t think I’m settling. Decrepit Altar had my attention regardless of what else was in the queue. This Croatian quartet came out of nowhere with this debut EP, though it should be noted they have experience in several bands you’ve likely never heard of. Regardless, I can […]

Dwelling Below – Wearisome Guardians (Dimensional Death Doom)
Dwelling Below, a heretofore criminally ignored death doom act from the United States, have carved a space for themselves in a genre known primarily for crushing atmosphere, but yet which can often lead to plodding that wearies the listener to the point of disgust. Thus perhaps calling this one Wearisome Guardians was a bad […]

Trollcave – Adoration of the Abyssal Trespasser (Odious Funeral Death Doom)
I love when bands do shit like this. Calling this an EP when it’s over the standard time limit, lol. And making it only two tracks so at first glance you’d think you were looking at a new 7″ drop. Spain’s Trollcave came under my radar somewhere in the past, I don’t remember when, […]

Purulency – Transcendent Unveiling of Dimensions (More Than a Mere Demo Slimy Death Doom)
What a tangled mess of gross this one is. Get your cold, pasty hands off of me! I feel sick! I can’t think! Considering it’s rainy outside as I write this one, we’ll go with those bodily sensations. I want to feel revulsed. Tennessee’s Purulency, in this mere demo, take a different thematic approach […]

Carcinoid – Encomium to Extinction (Smarty Pants Grave-Splitting Death Doom)
Well this one surprised me now, didn’t it? Just the other day I was saying how Australia’s Werewolves pretty much satisfies everything you’d need in death metal from the country, but now I decided to add to the list Carcinoid, which opts for the death doom angle, with some cocky smartypants attitude. On the […]

Martyrdoom – As Torment Prevails (Pneumoniac Death Doom)
For a name that sounds like a poor play on words at first, these guys can bring it. And talk about a comeback, phew! Having been absent from the scene for roughly six years, it’s almost as though they were reborn to reclaim the glory that was lost. I’ve heard some good death doom […]
