Torturerama – It Begins At Birth EP

Death metal is probably the easiest genre to call.  When you see a band name, you usually know where they’re going with it and what to expect out of the quality.  You’ve probably heard it all, all the references to body parts, bodily fluids, ad nauseum, but not in the way they’re thinking.  And the […]

ÆVANGELIST – Writhes in the Murk

Sometimes before we write these things we like to check out the plebosphere to see what kinds of opinions are being tossed about, just for a frame of reference.  Don’t dare accuse us of plagiarism, because it doesn’t happen around here, we’re original, 100%.  The main reason for doing such research is to get an […]

Sloth Herder / Horde of the Eclipse – Split CD

Let’s give ourselves a splitting headache.  Are you ready to understand what it’s like to have split-personality disorder?  Can we think of any other clever usages of the word ‘split’ that doesn’t involve a direct understanding of the term in relationship to music?  No, it stops right here, right now.  Now we get to being serious. […]

Zom – Flesh Assimilation

Raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!  Ever just want to do that?  Ever just want to scream the scream of sacrilegious pleasure when you come across something so absolutely filthy, so disgustingly, awfully corrupt it defines your entire existence as a thing of the soil?  You worm, do you not know of Zom?  Zom come from Ireland and their sound […]

Centinex – Redeeming Filth

This was a day when we wanted to feel manly, or womanly.  It was a day to break down gender barriers, to enter a world where everyone can be beast and the image is not restricted to false presentations in the media.  This is that day.  This is the day when you toss things around […]

Varathron – Untrodden Corridors of Hades

Well, this was a ruined special review.  Originally, we intended on dealing out this on Saturday and calling it Satan Saturday, thereby giving us an excuse to post a Satanic something rather on Saturday thereafter and start a new trend no one else would pay attention to.  So that fell through, and then we figured, […]

Imperial Savagery – S/T

It’s been awhile since we reviewed straight death metal, primarily because, in spite of the number of submissions, most of it has been just awfully terribly horrible.  It forces us to pull out multiple adjectives and completely kill all journalistic credibility.  But we can’t help it, death metal can really suck anymore.  CD after CD […]

Hoth: Oathbreaker

Always give credit to self-released bands who put this much effort into it.  Hoth took the time to write a thorough promo sheet, including a frakkin sticker to sweeten the pot.  We’ve encountered them before, though Cole didn’t like them very much, primarily because they’re self-proclaimed Star Wars fanatics and he didn’t like their, let’s […]

Devoid: The Invasion EP

Only the truly knowledgeable of us know that India produces death metal.  And only the truly underground of those who are knowledgeable know that India can produce good death metal.  It’s sad because several of their homegrown power teams are actually quite good, others not so much, but that’s to be expected anywhere.  Transcending Obscurity […]

Decomposed: Devouring

Swedish death metal has had its score of greats, and we need not mention any of them here because it would just be pretentious.  Probably yawnsome, too, and we keep it underground, so underground.  Decomposed started out with a huge leap of faith, naming themselves with such an obvious term, one already taken by at […]
