Contaminated – Celebratory Beheading (Regal Beast Metal)
Uh oh, MF Contaminated is back! I remembered the name from the memories of the hulking beast cover on a previous album, and yet again I was struck by their utilization of catchy artwork, which in this case is a simple shot from the film La Reine Margot (1994). Effective. But, at any rate, […]

Evoker – Evil Torment (Love Hate Relationship Death Metal)
Though the creeping beast grave cover by Skaðvaldur is cool, I was completely disinterested in Evoker’s new EP, Evil Torment, when I started to listen.
