Ritual Dictates – No Great Loss (Epic Post-Goth Power Metal)
I came upon Ritual Dictates by random chance when their first full-length was released to little fanfare, in fact it was more fanhate, there was little fare to be had. Consisting of two dudes from a slew of bands I don’t care to mention, it seemed sadly an aborted brainchild superpoop from a one […]

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 […]

Frayle – 1692 (Bitter Doom for the Broken Soul)
Most doom is satisfied thematically with smoking or taking drugs, tossing tabletop RPG dice, witch stuff, or plain sloth. They don’t hide it, either, and with a simple name or cover you know exactly what to expect and you’re both disappointed and not. But as of late female-fronted doom has been a particular favorite […]

Omgeving – Wijde Wijdte (Honestly Impressionistic Metal)
Now here’s a guy who knows exactly what he’s about all…the…time. Honestly not sure I do, however. Look at that cover by Polish tatoo artist Kuba Kujawa. Seriously look at it. Do you know what’s going on there? You might think so at first. Now the band name, Omgeving, is Dutch for “surroundings” and […]

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 […]

SINISTRO – Sangue Cássia
I’m either just getting more emotionally biased as I age, or this band’s style is one of the directions in which metal needs to go come on now get with it. I don’t recall ever hearing of SINISTRO until this moment, well not this exact moment, but this point in time let’s get existential. Their label, Season […]

Quick Reviews – October 2017
Alright here we go with another dose of Quick Reviews you scum. Quite a variety here, though I was hard hit by the country of Germany in October for some reason, not sure why. Out of all the stuff that wasn’t as visually pleasing these are the ones that made the cut for a little […]

The Death of Money – Ghost Pains
Losing youth is more painful to those who pay attention, or to whom it matters. There’s a breaking point for all of us when age itself has complete control of what we are. When our hair is streaked with silver, when the skin is loose on the bones, and the flesh translucent, the effect of […]

CASSETTE ASSAULT – Bunch of Stuff With Puppy References
Different sort of thing today for you cassette-loving, tapedeck marrying, man-and-machine-legalization fiends out there, but still the plastic you love. In the past CASSETTE ASSAULT features we had something of a theme based on what we selected, but since these cassettes featured here were, first off, random, and second off the only ones we had […]

Beak – Let Time Begin
More like let us begin, this review. What does it take in post-metal? We hit some post-hardcore the other day, mentioning post-black metal in the same breath of a review, so what about this other post? What does it take? Most would argue oddity, pounding riffs, and mixing elements of other genres like sludge. Blacken […]
