Review: Gonemage – Handheld Demise
What was originally intended to scare my peers ended up hurting my ears; however, Gonemage still have a relatively unique take on avant garde black metal worth trying for as long as you can stand it.

Review: Godeater – Vespera
With more focus on the tech, this deathcore band could shred their way to Xenobiotic levels of cool.

Review: Virtual Symmetry – Virtual Symmetry
Sometimes a return to my origin–bread and butter prog metal–is all I need.

Review: Secludja – Stilled
Be’Lakor’s own pianist’s solo album, a wonderful trip into minimalist piano. It’s as sure to calm you down as it is to put you to sleep.

Review: Vauruvã – Por Nós da Ventania
Centered around a deep appreciation of the natural world, this album is both beautiful and vicious improvised black metal by none other than Caio Lemos–the man behind Bríi and Kaatayra.

Review: Aeternam – Heir of the Rising Sun
The rise and fall of empires is no easy topic to tackle, yet Aeternam write of the rise of the Ottomans with aplomb and ceaseless heart-stopping moments.

Review: Entheogen – Transmogrify
A curious album full of missteps and a lack of passion in the delivery.
