Review: SPHERES – Helios
A flawed yet endearingly weird work for all you lovers of zany prog metal.
Review: Seyr – Flux
A beacon in the post-metal sea that needs to shine a little brighter.
Review: Secludja – Stilled
Be’Lakor’s own pianist’s solo album, a wonderful trip into minimalist piano. It’s as sure to calm you down as it is to put you to sleep.
Review: Odyssey – Venomous Rhetoric
A 50/50 blend of Rush and Motorhead that isn’t as exciting as that sounds.
Review: Apeiron Bound – Multiplicity
A showcase of a bizarro take on progressive metal.
Review: The Gardening Club – Bridge of Spirits
A whirlwind of folk and jazz influences that will defy whatever expectations you may have.
Review: Ambrius – Effigies of Time
Ambrius boldly attempt to break the mould, but said mould is only ever broken temporarily before they fall back into their routine
Review: Aronious – Irkalla
The slinky dissonance of Aethereus collides with the technicality of the Deviant Process at a million miles per hour. This is The Artisan Era-core to a tee.
Review: Xenoglyph – Spiritfraud
Warning us from another planet about technology’s imminent rise to overtake humanity, Xenoglyph write twisting black metal certain to appeal to fans of the genre’s more dissonant leanings.
Review: Ckraft – Epic Discordant Vision
Epic Discordant Vision is the perfect title for this album; it’s a grand feast with fifty minutes of harsh riffage, tenor sax leads, and accordion noodling.
