Evadne – Dethroned of Light EP
In the world of doom metal, it’s pretty simple to categorize any one band, in fact many of them sound so similar furthering delineating by way of another adjective is often fruitless, or better to say delusional. However, if there’s one clear derivation in the genre, it’s funeral doom. You’ve probably already heard of the […]

Вий – S/T
We were just totally in the mood for something terribly ugly today. This one was actually discovered by accident, after checking out the Facebook page of SaturninE, who we reviewed only a few weeks ago. Вий was an act playing with them in Italy for an underground doom gig that came up in the feed, […]

Hammerhands – Glaciers
Awhile ago during one of our Quick n’ Dirty reviews, we gave a nasty review of a band called Hammer Fist and now this is a review of a band called Hammerhands, so the real question and the point of this review is what is tougher – a fist of hammer or hands of hammers? Continue […]

Noothgrush/Coffins: Split LP
Any veteran of the doom metal scene is familiar with these two names, without a doubt. That saves us a lot of time, see, because where we’d normally spend an introductory paragraph talking background and bio, we can now use that space to write pointless nothingness like this sentence, which you will still read because […]

Greenhorn – The Plague Doctor’s Mask EP
Nothing beats receiving a self-released hack-job that actually ends up being…awesome. “What is this?” you wonder, as you stare at what looks like a…like a…yes that is the skull of a triceratops. Wait a minute, guys, this isn’t even a plague doctor’s mask! Okay, for once, let’s not put this aside, we said, let’s take […]

Rites: II
The feeling of when you discover a band and enjoy the shit out of em’ and then when you go to find more of their music and discover that they have broken up – is very similar to a cock block. Being denied that excitement is a total buzzkill and makes you give the cock-blocker […]

Tons: Musineè Doom Session Vol. 1
Now and then doom bands get the name right. It’s not about the name, you say? No, it is about the name, damn it. None of this stupid wizard junk with fire, bong smoking, electric space-worm-riding, trip-to-the-sun-in-a-cardboard-spaceship, Jesus-in-Hell-with-the-Virgin-doing-lines-whilst-reading-The Return of the King junk that’s boring. Sadly that was a reference to probably about two hundred […]
