Cryptic Passage \ electronic noise \ experimental \ Washington
So like I know this guy from way back maaannnn. I actually released a CD on the previous label (now combined with Deaf Sparrow) of another of his crazy acts, Melted Cassettes, and was thus hoping for something of the sort. Lucky me, because his other incarnation, Fake Snake, while bringing to mind pleasant […]
ambient \ black metal \ blackened death metal \ Bloodsoaked Records \ cassette \ Cassette Assault \ Cerecloth \ death industrial \ death metal \ Divergent Series \ doom metal \ drone \ experimental \ Iron Noose \ No Visible Scars \ noise \ One Master \ RID \ Russia \ sludge metal \ stoner metal \ Sunmask \ Sweden \ Swedish death metal \ The Death Wheelers \ UIS \ Witchstone
It’s been a long time since I’ve done one of these, and that’s primarily because of a special app I’m seriously working on for the site where I can give some press to stuff I don’t review on in this way anymore. Bad art, or just ehhh releases, will all have their due eventually. Sometimes this […]
black metal \ experimental \ experimental metal \ noise metal \ post-black metal \ Reverorum ib Malacht \ STFU title's too long metal \ suck metal \ Sweden
I’m, so sick of the hype surrounding this album and I’m going to be as brief as possible, but trust me, it’s goddamn hard not to go off. Practically the only reason I’m reviewing it is because people just can’t STFU about it. I don’t even really like the cover. Oh, wow, some anti-Christian […]
atmospheric \ Chicago \ doom metal \ Drug Honkey \ experimental \ Paolo Girardi \ Transcending Obscurity
Doom metal is a genre close to collapse, I’m more and more sure of it. It has as much redundancy currently as NY hardcore and baby boomer punk, so think about it, do you really want to keep listening to it? It’s far too hesitant to change when change is needed, and far too comfortable […]
american \ black metal \ experimental \ Fragile Branch \ noise \ noise metal \ post-black metal \ Sentient Ruin Laboratories \ Shove Records \ sludge \ the tears I shed are many \ United States \ Virginia
Facebook was begging me to post something for all of you because I haven’t been. This album is why. Now and then I get hit, hard, by a revelation. Here it is. Sometimes people accept goodness on what everyone else says and assume the opinion as their own. When I first knew that american was […]
deathgaze \ doom \ doom metal \ experimental \ gazegaze \ gazinggazegaze \ Ghost Pains \ Goth \ post-metal \ post-rock \ shoegaze \ SuperFi Records \ United Kingdom \ whatevergaze
Losing youth is more painful to those who pay attention, or to whom it matters. There’s a breaking point for all of us when age itself has complete control of what we are. When our hair is streaked with silver, when the skin is loose on the bones, and the flesh translucent, the effect of […]
ambient \ dark ambient \ Editions Mego \ experimental \ field recordings \ just so awesome wow I suck at writing \ Klara Lewis \ Sweden
Sketches. Incomplete ideas of pictures yet to be formed. Idle lines on paper connected in moments of inspiration, never fully developed. Most of us are just sketches. Fragmented, splintered, incomplete representations of human beings, but yet we constantly hide this fact. We hide ourselves behind images that best represent our thoughts and shapes, and we […]
ad noiseam \ Berlin \ electronica \ experimental \ Germany \ industrial \ source recordings \ Swarm Inteligence \ totally corrosive
Can we praise Ad Noiseam some more? At this point it would be so redundant our focus keyword ratio for the label would explode Google searches and become the only thing that appears, regardless of what you want to find. Tamarind caloric content? Sorry, Ad Noiseam’s going to come up, because we talk about them […]
experimental \ Ferrrum \ Hell:On \ progressive metal \ thrash metal \ Ukraine
Experimentation is occasionally a path of ruin, irrespective of history and skill, a choice often made for the wrong reasons, or even when made for the right reasons it leads to abject failure. It’s a dangerous path, fraught with danger, covered in brambles leading up to steep cliffs where a single foothold means either progression […]
collaboration \ experimental \ free jazz \ Japan \ Many Arms \ noise \ onkyo \ Philadelphia \ power electronics \ public eyesore \ punk \ Toshimaru Nakamura
It’s sadly been awhile since we’ve reviewed something from the highly underappreciated Public Eyesore, or as we like to lovingly call them “The Pub”, “The Eye”, or “The Sore”. The guy has an obsession, or perhaps a fetish, or perhaps a dedication if we’re speaking lovingly, of experimental music in its essence. Free jazz, power electronics […]
