Acid Witch – Rot Among Us (Thrilling Chilling Psychedelic Spooky Doom Metal)

  This is what you call a masterpiece. And that’s great because honestly before this moment I always yawned when I saw the name Acid Witch. Lol sorry dudes. Dragging themselves behind the better acts in psychedelic doom, though I enjoyed their themes and often hilarious wordplay, they just didn’t offer much other than imagery […]

Yevabog – Between Two Fires (Arcane Death Metal)

  Dang talk about time flies when you’re listening to shit like this. Once it was all over I wished it wasn’t and couldn’t believe how much this one-man powergod covered in so short a time. A mere twenty-two minutes and some seconds long, Between Two Fires brings to the forefront a currently unknown one-man […]

Writhing Shadows – S/T (Seething War-Like Death Metal)

  Now wasn’t this a nice little war-like surprise? Sometimes when I’m running through promos stuff gets missed, or, in this case, stuff is sent late and almost gets deleted for that fact. But the cover, which hearkens back to 1970s sci-fi sorcery, swords, and guns themes, made it worth at least a quick listen. […]

Mutilatred – Determined to Rot (Like What Do You Want Exactly Brutal Death Metal)

Mutilatred – Determined to Rot (Like What Do You Want Exactly Brutal Death Metal)

  Well I took my time on this one, breaking my mantra of (usually) no reviews after release date, also of reviews of stuff that will totally blow your mind. But in my defense I already had this one ready to go, needed to listen to it more, and the connection at the place where […]

Cultic – Of Fire and Sorcery (Dungeon Death Doom)

Cultic – Of Fire and Sorcery (Dungeon Death Doom)

  I believe someone already said it in another review, or perhaps more than one individual, but regardless let me reiterate; this is probably going to be one of the top five releases of the year. Actually make that likely top one. Definitely one of the best of the decade. Get it? Cultic has sloughed […]

Triumph – Retaliation Warfare (Dystopian Nuclear Assault War Metal)

Triumph – Retaliation Warfare (Dystopian Nuclear Assault War Metal)

  This week has been slim with promos worth listening to, and as you can see only one of those was worth reviewing. The rest…I just can’t even… But Nevada’s Triumph, with that militant apocalypse looking cover, was probably going to be at least a safe pass because it’s war metal, but in this case […]

Slumber Party Massacre (Most Overlooked Film of 2021)

Slumber Party Massacre (Most Overlooked Film of 2021)

  In my last column I discussed Last Night in Soho, an ill-advised attempt to ride the “good for her” wave. But I didn’t mean to imply that the theme (traumatized women shaking back to kick ass) is played out. There’s still plenty of life in it, and 2021’s best example comes in an unexpected […]

Bat Magic – Feast of Blood (Vampires Are Cool Again Black Metal)

Bat Magic – Feast of Blood (Vampires Are Cool Again Black Metal)

  It didn’t surprise me I liked this one. Usually I’d pass on such a simplistic cover with an obvious vampire bent that’s likely to be more kitsch than clique. I mean Jesus Christ it states right there on Bandcamp “RECORDED IN A CASTLE UNDER THE BLOOD MOON ANNO MMXVI.” ALL CAPS too, I didn’t […]

HAMMR – Eternal Possession (Swirling Bodies Blackened Speed Punk)

  Nasty stuff this one. What can I expect from a guy who played guitar and drums for Demona holy shit? For whatever reason, and I don’t care to ask, he struck it out on his own with this act, HAMMR, right around the same time aforementioned Chilean speed metal harpy girl all but disappeared […]

Depressive – We R Fuk”d (Updated Xerox Death Noise)

  Whoah boiiii I’ve been waiting for a good release of this type for far too long damn. Noise albums have slammed now and then in the past year, don’t mistake my meaning, but they always suck at the art, stuck in some sort of old school Xerox aesthetic that honestly should die already. More […]
