Review: Loch Vostok – Opus Ferox – The Great Escape
Quality writing has no genre, and it carries this album that somehow manages to have no identity for 48 minutes and still be good.

Review: Burial in the Sky – The Consumed Self
Lose yourself in this dynamic, progressive, sax-filled technical death metal epic.
Album Reviews
Review: Moon Machine – Moon Machine
If you are someone who wishes Keor never would have diverged from Steven Wilson/Opeth inspired sound he established in Petrichor, I think I might just have the album for you.

Review: Prognostication – Collapse
Finally! A progressive technical death album with some true melodic flair and a styling of Native Construct and similar artists in the cleaner sections.

Review: Grace Hayhurst – Existence is Temporary
Heavy, yet airy. Punchy, yet uplifting. Aggressive, yet hopeful. Grace Hayhurst’s debut EP manages to crush you to pieces and pick you up to repeat it all over again.

Review: Erdve – Savigaila
A mixed bag of the most furious metallic hardcore this side of End… alongside a bunch of immersive psychedelic filler.

Review: Scattered Storm – Oblivion
Quality musicianship dragged down by poor mixing and a lack of originality.

Review: Gravestone – Ars Arcana
The songs take a lot of strange turns, with chord changes and melodies never quite leading where you expect, but ending up somewhere tasteful nonetheless.

Review: Cognitive – Malevolent Thoughts of a Hastened Extinction
Looking to get pummeled over the head with a few cool turns along the way? This is for that mood.

Review: Ophidian I – Desolate
One of the most impressive tech-death albums I’ve ever heard, with absolutely blistering guitarwork and great songwriting to boot!
