Sonic Poison – Eruption (Apocalyptic Combat Grind)
Lol I saw this called grindcore somewhere? Please, listen, restrict the usage of that tag to bands that are bad please. I mean come on this is clearly combat grind. I feel bad for those out there dealing such nonsense, but even worse for myself because I have to waste time pulling out a […]

Sickness – Daemones Sub Terra (Putrid Blackened Death Metal)
I’m moderately, or actually more than moderately, surprised that I couldn’t easily find a review for this one on the Internets. I mean come on WTF this is putrid Finnish blackened death metal! How is it possible at least one other person didn’t “get it” and crap out some words of love for the […]

IANAI – Sunir (Like Wow Finnish Experimental Folk)
Like wow, what’s with all these surprises this week that I almost missed WTF? This is one of those albums were perhaps but a few seconds in you’re absolutely passing out from its level of incredible and by the end you can’t believe it actually exists. Like how does someone write music this fooking […]

Vorare – The Drainage Rituals (Dark Industrial Auricular Violation)
Another late entry into the review pile be this one, which I only decided to cover because I so rarely get good experimental stuff. Hell, I can’t even remember the last time I received any at all! But, anyway, what makes good experimental good? It’s rather simple, but perhaps we should start with what […]

Tormentor Tyrant – S/T (Primordial Hate Metal)
Over the years I’ve shortened my review length as more and more people forget how to read. Who reads anymore? But today I’ll be even shorten than usual, because there is little to say. Finland’s Tormentor Tyrant, fresh with only two singles before this EP, have supplied my current need of bestial power sufficiently. […]

Concrete Winds – Nerve Butcherer (Death Metal by Half-Beings)
Goddamn I love this messy ass cover. You can’t tell what the hell you’re looking at from any angle. The band logo is like a collection of broken hypodermics, the album title will give you a seizure, and they’re both laid on top of a bizarre gathering of nonsensical, yet somehow frightening shapes and […]

Kovaa Rasvaa – Tasaluvulla Tulevaisuuteen (Can’t Translate It Finnish Hardcore Punk)
Man I’m pretty sure this is something Google Translate is not going to get properly, so I’m not even going to embarrass myself with a translation of either one, the band’s name, or two, the album title. Let’s just let Finnish punk filth words lie as they are. The same applies to this band’s […]

Sadistik Forest – Obscure Old Remains (Blasphemic Destruction Metal)
Oooooo those lovely Finns do it again with a touch of blasphemy, with a touch of spite, with a touch of… I mean not these guys in particular, just like any metal band from that country practically. Sadistik Forest has technically been around for some time, but didn’t hit full stride until about ten […]

Sadistic Drive – Anthropophagy (Dirty Finnish Depraved Metal)
Let’s end this week (I think I’m ending it) with some depraved metal ye fools. I was hit with at least one other Finnish band of this style, more on the grind side, this past month, and man did they suck. You can almost tell immediately by the art whether a band of this […]

Convocation – Ashes Coalesce (Weight of the World Funeral Doom)
So yeah yet again I’m convinced that this type of doom needs to hit with everything it’s got. You want a funeral, make it sound like one without the silliness. The slowness, the trudging steps, the abject suffering. It has to hit and hit well to succeed. Slow itself is not enough. It needs […]
