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)
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? […]

Drouth – Excerpts from a Dread Liturgy (Black Metal Manifest)
Wow, I ended up liking this one more than I expected. Leave it to US black metal to excite me again, after months and months of drudgery. I was getting sick of the snowstorm tremolo, the corpse paint no one remembers the purpose of anymore, the lo-fi ” but that’s how it’s supposed to […]

Bezwering – Aan de wormen overgeleverd (UNDEATH METAL)
Bands really need to declare themselves “post” dash whatever when it’s fucking weird. When I hear “black metal,” for example, I expect horse-stomping drums, lo-fi tremolo blizzard storms with maybe riffs in there, and bass that’s rumbling behind all of it as the Popeye screech vocals commence. Lol where’s me spinach? So why bother […]

L’Homme Absurde – Belong (Past-Black Metal)
I’m trying to figure out why it’s so easy to like post-black metal. It seems the morphing of classic aesthetic into a dreary, introspective void just works somehow. But this type of direction has been around so long can we even call it post anymore? It’s like past-black metal now. Therein is the current […]

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 […]

Natvre’s – Early Cvlts LIMITED EDITION Cassette
Since Deaf Sparrow’s finances are in check, let us say, or rather, CEO has good job now yay, we can start CRAPPING OUT more stuff. For the past year I’ve been talking with Natvre’s about releasing their last album in cassette format, but job issues were keeping finances too low to pull it off. […]

Ulthar – Cosmovore (Lovecraft Does It, Sigh, AGAIN)
Now here’s a good one, musically speaking… Thematically it almost killed me with redundancy, which I’ll explain, but these guys are so skilled at what they do I could ignore it, mainly because I didn’t know what any of it was about until after I listened about 10 times. California’s Ulthar are true masters […]
