Hebephrenique – decathexis (Post-Post Black Metal)

  I’m just going to start by saying this is a rare instance where an album deserves a perfect score. And I kind of figured that from the digging into the self suggested by the cover but damn it to hell I didn’t think Australia’s Hebephrenique would be delivering this kind of craziness. I’m barely […]

Tylo – Of Rot and Rebirth (Trauma Metal)

Tylo – Of Rot and Rebirth (Trauma Metal)

  I had to stop and think about this one more than the usual. There’s something different about this I could only fully explain by making up a term. I could try what what others have failed at by saying post-Goth, post-doom, etc. but such an approach is lacking. Tylo Gardner, who’s done work as […]

Karg – Marodeur (Post-Artifice Blackened Gaze)

  One of the greats of the Austrian post-black metal scene, Karg, has graced me with a wonderful promo featuring a running horsey and rider chasing in tow with a crop. If that doesn’t set the scene, you tell me what does. Lol, I kid. Karg, whose earlier work was primarily noteworthy for its progression […]

Schammasch – The Maldoror Chants: Old Ocean (Avant-Garde Poetic Post-Black Metal)

  Is that enough of a mouthful for you and pretentious AF? Well, avant-garde poetic post-black metal is about all I got for this one, from a band that knows how to be visually stunning! Ever-mysterious, and Swiss, Schammasch are one of those rare combinations of genres that gets it right in every way possible. […]

Ulvik – Last Rites | Dire Omens (Mountainous 19th Century Blackened Folk Doom)

  This one came in late, but there’s time, and I had to make time just glancing the cover. There’s a sense of history here, and sense of noticing details and remembering things forgotten. What appears a simple image of a rotting dog face, or something like that, is enclosed in a border only the […]

Nachts – Privileg (Pre or Perhaps Post-Suicidal Black Metal)

  What in the hell kind of horrid past did this guy have? I knew I was going to get more sadness out of this than I bargained for, but holy hell guy, what did life do to you?! I have a penchant for the more emotional veins of black metal, depending on how it’s […]

Calligram – Position | Momentum (Post-Blackened Crust)

  Am I in the mood for post-black metal with a little of that blackened hardcore and a touch of the crust? Sure, why not? I’m in a good mood. Plus, don’t really seem to be easily accessible reviews out there, so let’s start the process for the good boys in Calligram, who appear to […]

Gonemage – Handheld Demise (Post-Black Metal Noise Pop Chiptunes Glitchery)

  This came in by chance. No, actually, it’s like the second or third submission by this guy, except this time I didn’t pass on it lol (art is too cool). Gonemage is actually the brainchild of a number of people, though technically it’s primarily run by one of the dudes in Cara Neir (search […]

Aleynmord – The Blinding Light (The Only Thing That Didn’t Suck This Week)

  I had a dry spell this week. Took my time with this one and let it rotate in my head several times before writing anything. The primary reason was it was all I had left because this week sucked as far as promos went and I needed to be certain it was worth it. […]

Oppress – No. Pity. (Repugnant Feast on My Loins Ambient Black Metal)

Oppress – No. Pity. (Repugnant Feast on My Loins Ambient Black Metal)

  Well here’s one that looks dumb if you crop the art the right way (go back to main page). Jesus lady face so sad? Oh, and she’s, oh… Props for the Aubrey Beardsley look, it’s for sure something most people will miss, but now that we’ve got past the cover how fare the tunes? […]
