Chaos Records \ Påhl Sundström \ Sweden \ Swedish death metal
Gold Spire – S/T (Let’s Toss in Some Sax Swedish Death Metal)
I was pretty sure I was probably going to like this, so imagine my surprise when I really didn’t. Bummer. Gold Spire consists of members of some pretty important Swedeath bands, most importantly Usurpress. Swedish death metal has, simply put, been known for bending the rules, or outright discarding them. This one I saw […]
Armageddon Label \ blackened punk \ hardcore punk \ Joe BB \ Sweden
Exil – Warning (An EXciting Hardcore Punk EXperience)
Gawsh finally some more hardcore punk ass shit for me to review that got me pretty EXcited. Enough that I decided to EXpress myself by capitalizing two letters for some reason in some sick attempt to verify my own EXistence. Can you blame me? I was getting sick of all the trash I receive […]
death thrash \ Hellish Maggot \ Redefining Darkness Records \ Sweden
Morbid Breath – In the Hand of the Reaper (Fooking Death Thrash)
Oh yeah we got some death thrash here with fooking dragons, fooking castles, fooking crumbling stairs, fooking medieval torture devices, fooking lightning, and yeah even a fooking grim reaper crowning all of it with a fooking scythe. And being that Morbid Breath is also from fooking Sweden, you can anticipate that In the Hand […]

Koko-Di Koko-Da (Groundhog Day Murder Grief Film by Johannes Nyholm)
When The Babadook exploded in 2014, along came the usual flurry of thinkpieces praising an intelligent horror movie that dealt with the thorny topic of grief. Although labeling this a new development ignores the long history that horror has with bereavement, the recent trend of “elevated horror” films that explicitly address grief is undeniable. […]

Revolting – The Shadow at the World’s End (Acceptable Swedish Death Metal)
So I wasn’t a big fan of this at first. In fact I wasn’t a fan at all. I pretty much hated it, but then I realized it wasn’t the fault of Revolting, I had just heard too much typical death metal going through the promos and I forgot, lol, this is the Swedish […]
Carnal Records \ Chadwick St. John \ classic black metal \ Inkshadows \ Sweden
Svartsyn – Requiem (More of the Same Yet Better Black Metal)
Yeah, so like I was on a lull this week, and the last week, because 100% of the promos I received sucked and there was seriously nothing worth your time. So if anyone said there was they’re stupid and you should stop paying attention to them. So I had a conundrum at that point. […]
Necromaniac Artworks \ Soulseller Records \ Swedeath \ Sweden
Repuked – Dawn of Reintoxication (Swedeath with a Myspace Page)
Lol these fooking clowns. I knew Repuked was going to spew vomit from the moment I saw their name, followed by the album title, lol Dawn of Reintoxication, and then band photos where they clearly could give a shit with grocery bags left in the shot, a double-wide lawn chair, someone holding a foot […]
hard rock \ Majestic Mountain Records \ Shane Horror \ sludge \ stoner metal \ Sweden
Laser Dracul – Hagridden (Moldy Old Dude Stoner Metal)
Well this was surprisingly good, holy shit. I mean don’t fault me too much because these guys are coming at you with lasers and some Dracula shit and, more importantly, they’re playing stoner/sludge/doom metal that usually collapses under the weight of stereotype. Said institutions have not done better in this regard, most often. So […]
crust metal \ Sweden \ Transcending Obscurity \ Turkka G. Rantanen
Henry Kane – Age of the Idiot (Conglomerate Crust Metal)
I feel like the promos I’ve been receiving, the ones I’ve selected anyway, have really come in the perfect order. I’ve had a great sampling of noise, heavy metal, punk, etc., and now add to that this slab with some crust stuff and we’re pretty much filling out a memoir. And this is rather […]
Findland \ rejected by so many so sad \ speed metal \ superdeformed speed metal \ Svart Records \ Sweden
Obnoxious Youth – Mouths Sewn Shut (Superdeformed Speed Metal)
This is the kind of stuff I live to review, if you can call that living. I laugh and stare from above as the pathetic provincial sites of the world attempt to draw some sorts of band comparisons or pathetically toss out tag after stale tag in an attempt to ground their meaningless words. […]
