Demonic Manifestation – Grimshrine (Surgical Crypt Metal)
Let me pull straight from the Personal Records promo email for the start of this one. Mexico’s Demonic Manifestation are driven “by a passion for extreme, pure, and honest music.” Forget the rest, because that’s the part that really matters right there. Yeah I could toss out old school, I could toss out death […]

Horrifier – Revelations of Gore (Death by a Thousand Cuts Norwegian Death Metal)
I remember all those years ago (a total of three) when I first heard Norway’s Horrifier. Messy as hell, with a pestilent bite to remind you to stay on guard. I didn’t feel entirely zombified by it, in fact it was almost overdriven to the point of bubbling noise at parts, but I observed […]

Plasmodulated – An Ocean ov Putrid, Stinky, Vile, Disgusting Hell (Human Filth Metal for the New Florida)
Let the official proclamation hereby be stated: the Florida death metal scene may be undergoing a renaissance. Death metal in the region has simmered with a familiar, if potent, consistency for years now, trapped in the amber of its 1990s progressive death metal glory. And while some may raise fists in my presence, the […]

Vomitrot – Emetic Imprecations (Death Barf)
Yes, it’s barf time fools! This is great, I was looking for some awesome death barf recently but nothing was doing it for me. Specifically because the riffs, and most certainly the vocals, were not reaching far enough to the back of my mouth to incite the gag reflex. If it can’t get in […]

Mourners Lament – A Grey Farewell (Loss-Ridden Symphonic Funeral Doom)
I needed some deep-seated, depressive power this week. Not sure why that was, but be it as it may, here we have another Chilean masterwork to satiate that inner desire. What’s going on in Chile, I ask? I keep getting masterpieces of practically every metal genre flowing out of the country, and add to […]

Carathis – The Haunting of Sablewood (Spooky Tube Sock Black Metal)
Holy shit what in the hell was this guy doing before this point? I mean, hey, I appreciate some of the genre-mashing Carathis was engaging in in his dark past, but this, I mean this is truly something else. Hell, last time I reviewed a band from Austria was like three years ago and […]

Of Darkness – Missa Tridentina (Orchestral Ambient Funeral Doom)
Pretty sure I know at least one of the guys in this band somehow, digital acquaintance level, but I can’t put my finger on it… Whatever, I’m sure if I took the time to look I’d determine this Spanish outfit has had its hands in a number of disgusting bands in some way, but […]

Sporae Autem Yuggoth – … However It Still Moves (Supernatural Death Doom)
When I see dot dot dot, I expect big things. Illegible logos, forget it, that’s meaningless these days. What I want is that dot dot dot. It implies depth of feeling, lamentation, thoughts of mortality… Now, however, at the same time, I don’t want that to including frikken thoughts on Lovecraft. For the love […]
