Review: A Novelist – Folie
Technical yet also catchy, punchy yet also innovative. A Novelist knows how to pack a thoroughly constructed punch.
Review: Neuronaut – State of Not Enough
An album that doesn’t shy away from very strange experimentation.
Review: Pensées Nocturnes – Grand Guignol Orchestra
Black Metal! Clowns! Wait, what?
Review: Onydia – Reflections
A release that fails to thrive under its promising landscape.
Review: Stormhaven – Liquid Imagery
Opeth worship bands keep chucking out albums, but are they any good? Stormhaven may be an example of how to get it right.
Review: Ahl Sina – Troops of Pain
Oriental progressive metal that’s not shy of unorthodox instrumentation
Review: Together to the Stars – An Oblivion Above
Beautiful, intricate and emotional.
Review: Althea – The Art of Trees
A natural progress of the more art-sy, 1970’s prog rock movement.
Review: Crypt of Insomnia – Quadrilogy. Part 1: Principle of Cosmic Censorship
An overlong title to an overlong album
Review: Omega Point – Isolation
Blackened Melodeath with a very gloomy atmosphere
