Review: Bound – Haunts
Melancholy, dense shoegaze that doesn’t overstay its welcome.
Review: White Walls – Grandeur
A surprisingly tasteful slice of melodic and progressive metal from Romania.
Review: Entropy Created Consciousness – Antica Memoria Di Dis: Acheron & Lethe
Atmospheric, well made Black Metal which has restored this reviewer’s faith in the genre.
Review: Counteractt – Universal Sadness
Come for the pipe organ intro, stay for the deathcore carnage.
Review: Sundr – Solar Ships
An album made for the current moment: Post-Metal that reflects feelings of loneliness and isolation.
Review: Fires in the Distance – Echoes from Deep November
The template is awesome, but they come back to it an awful lot.
Review: Greg Puciato – Child Soldier: Creator of God
“Do You Need Me to Remind You?” how good this is? If you haven’t heard it, probably, yes.
Review: Intercepting Pattern – The Encounter
The Encounter seems to be an apt name for this album, seeing as this blend of jazz and almost death/tech style metal does seem to come from its own little planet outside of the rest of the scene.
Review: mortician – Endless Void
This is the kind of album that just sort of rips out your throat, shows it to you, and says “isn’t this gnarly as hell?”.
Review: Watertank – Silent Running
