Undead – Putrefactio (Nu-Death Metal, Actually Not Just Kidding)
This is a good example of a band that takes itself way too seriously in group photos, but once you listen to it you say “damn it to hell if you don’t deserve to act that way.” Light corpse paint, scary faces, grim stares, leaning (gasp) towards nu-metal aesthetic, I mean come on! Should […]

Archaic Thorn – Eradication (Nihilistic Death Metal for Lunch)
Lunch time freaks. Catching up on some backlog I was first going to pass on this German death metal trio, but those echo vocals had me going too strong to let it pass me by. Archaic Thorn certainly have a more clever take on the anti-Christian stuff by only so slightly referring to it […]
Everlasting Spew Records \ Finland \ funeral doom \ Misanthropic Art \ Sentient Ruin Laboratories
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 […]
Costa Rica \ Misanthropic Art \ post-black metal \ scary spells \ skull stuff \ Terratur Possessions
Umbra Conscientia – Yellowing of the Lunar Consciousness (That’s a Mouthful Black Metal)
I forgot where Costa Rica was until I listened to these guys. For some reason I thought it was like an island by itself but it turns out it’s just near Panama. See, you can learn something new every time you listen to crud music, I swear. Perhaps the most important thing being that […]

Trench Warfare – Hatred Prayer (Ear Infection Death Metal)
It’s easy to start back up after a vacation where I got a double ear infection (inner and middle, both ears) with some filthy death metal that sounds just like that. Actually listened to this one quite a bit before I left for that fateful, poisonous trip, so it seems fitting to return with […]
black metal \ Folter Records \ Germany \ Misanthropic Art \ Schrat \ wow German
Schrat – Alptraumgänger (Wow 100% German Black Metal)
Man, great art, yeah, love Misanthropic Art. And this is one of the more clever RPG terms-turned-band-name I’ve seen. WTF you talking about, asks the band. The closest translation in English we have of Schrat is “bugbear,” you know, that thing from Dungeons & Dragons? Yeah, I get it, it’s old folklore and such, but […]
