Review: Obsidian Mantra – Minds Led Astray
Eerie, groovy prog death out of Poland that is worth a listen
Review: Anderwelt – 2084
On the nose Orwellian post-metal.
Review: Omnivortex – Diagrams of Consciousness
Just a ripping technical death metal album that does not have a single boring moment or riff. And there are a lot of riffs.
Review: Seth Angerer – Utrotningen | Symphony No. 2
An enjoyable “instrumetal” album that manages to avoid most of the common traps of the genre.
Review: Seren – Soliloquy
Some good slammin’ death/deathcore jams with some extra spice thrown in.
Review: Avandra – Skylighting
Ethereal prog from Puerto Rico that grows on you.
Review: IER – 妖怪
A 95 minute behemoth that’s guaranteed to blow your socks off.
Review: Onségen Ensemble – Fear
The Good, The Bad, and The Psychedelic Spaghetti Western Post-Rock
Review: Starbynary – Divina Commedia: Paradiso
Despite some moments of promise, most of the album is stuck in the dead zone of “complex but not interesting” prog parts.
Review: Contrarian – Only Time Will Tell
A sci-fi adventure through time and space, inspired by tech death oldies like Death and Atheist.
