Germany \ rotted death metal \ Sweden \ Toni Hietomaa \ War Anthem Records
Rotpit – Let There Be Rot (Flippant Rotted Death Metal)
This is such a lovable type of band. When someone doesn’t give a shit and so clearly wallows in simplicity for the sake of it, I just have to hand out a hug. A deep embrace just to say “thank you, thank you for keeping it stupid.” It’s even more important here, because these […]
Alvar Baptist \ blackened crust \ Germany \ Giessen \ Hesse \ Lifeforce Records
Depravation – IV:LETVM (Such a Good German Blackened Crust)
Yesssssss. Gimmie some of that blackened crust yo. This might be a first actually… A first in the sense of this site reviewing such a band, and a first in the sense of such a band being such a good. It might seem like an easy formula since crust is close to death metal […]
Adam Burke \ atmospheric death metal \ Catalonia \ Germany \ Nightjar Illustration \ Pulverised Records \ Spain
Jade – The Pacification of Death (Good Old Atmospheric Death Metal)
Dang I forgot to review this before I went on a little old trip. Oh well, it still deserves it then or now so I’ll ignore my usual rule of rarely review after release date for good old Jade. What a bunch of good old guys, playing that atmospheric death metal that makes me […]
Blu-ray \ Eckhart Schmidt \ Germany \ horror thriller \ Mondo Macabro
Der Fan / The Fan (West German New Wave Horror Thriller)
You ever go to a concert and see that lost soul in the corner with the faraway thousand-yard stare? Yeah, I think you have…this movie is about one of those. Long unseen for many years aside from those of us unlucky enough to discover it in the Adult section of the video store (where it snuck out under the name Trance) and scholars such as Chas […]
Germany \ haunting death metal \ Iron Bonehead Productions \ North Rhine-Westphalia
Abythic – Eden of the Doomed (No Blue Balls Haunting German Death Metal)
Dang, shit’s tight, and strangely there aren’t many reviews for it even though I’m a bit late on this one. Plus I normally avoid EPs, mainly because I rarely see the point in them. It’s like, you got a few good songs together, why not just fooking wait until you have more and let […]
Amor Fati Productions \ Germany \ Helhallen \ mining black metal \ North Rhine-Westphalia \ Thuringia
Dauþuz – Vom schwarzen Schmied – Bergkgesænge (Mining Black Metal Works Wow)
Spectacular. Not only do we have here a band reinvestigating itself after only a few months, let alone at all, but we have a true achievement in the “niche effect,” which will hereby refer to any bands attempting to work bizarre themes into their sound. Usually tragic, here it’s epic. When so much has […]
Cologne \ Germany \ Hamm \ heavy metal \ High Roller Records \ North Rhine-Westphalia \ Velio Josto
Luzifer – Iron Shackles (German Birthright Heavy Metal)
Nice. I say this not necessarily because this particular release is the greatest thing ever, but it’s definitely the greatest promo of this week. Man, yet again, I got slammed by some of the most banal submissions ever. Horrid cover art, or music so derivative and stale I thought it was old emails from […]
BlackleafDesigns \ Germany \ Längi Gut \ Lifeforce Records \ post-hardcore \ post-metal
A Secret Revealed – When the Day Yearns for Light
Here’s another case of “the art indicates this will be good.” Also I knew this was a case of “post-somethingrather.” Damn I was right on both counts, you know my shit on point. How does he do it? Never going to tell you, but I totally called it. I believe I first heard of […]
death thrash \ Germany \ Hells Headbangers \ WÆIK
Sacrifixion – Shower Me in Death (Nein Umloot Death Thrash)
I like all these combo genres recently. Actually been awhile, but better to say recently I’ve been getting a better grasp of how they sound because I’m a n00b. Actually no I’m not, I know what I’m talking about so stfu. This is death thrash. That would be death metal ploos thrash metal, without […]
Germany \ raw black metal \ The Sinister Flame
Baxaxaxa – Catacomb Cult (Hard to Spell German Black Metal)
Goddamnit these guys have probably the worst name to spell. I mean, I dig it, but Christ I can’t spell it. I screwed it up every freaking time and had to rely on cut-and-paste to get anywhere. Thanks guys… It doesn’t matter anyway, because Baxaxaldkjalskdjfawlkef are absolute murder. Originally crushing the German scene in […]
