Review: Hippotraktor – Meridian
This is another excellent album to come out of Pelagic Records; it’s angry, sophisticated, and heavy like an organized crate of bricks.
Review: Coevality – Multiple Personalities
This is an incredible piece of instrumental songwriting and musicianship. Coevality bring the best of both worlds, soothing atmospheres and catchy melodies, as well as genuinely impressive mechanical skill. This is a true hidden gem that hits you like a breath of fresh air, and is an album to celebrate.
Review: Eternity’s End – Embers of War
For those who like power metal, this is an exceptional release. For those who like technical power metal, this may be one of the greatest power metal albums ever.
Review: Sculptured – The Liminal Phase
I cannot think of a better example of a “hit or miss” album than this. Fans of Katatonia and Agalloch should check this one out.
Review: PIXL – Deformity
Looks like there is djent from China now. Is it good? Yes. But is it unique enough to stand out amongst the wave of instrudjental solo artists? Ehhh…

Review: Altesia – Embryo
Altesia brings home another prog metal classic.
Review: Overtoun – This Darkness Feels Alive
Overtoun’s back must be hurting from the weight of all the OSDM bands they are carrying to the new era of metal.
Review: Summoner’s Circle – Chaos Vector
Summoner’s Circle arguably learns from past albums and illustrates a concise picture. This is a focused execution of dark synths, death-doom, and blackened death metal influences.
Review: The Cyberiam – Connected
The Cyberiam deliver a balanced reinterpretation of Rush-ian prog rock but with a modern twist.
