Review: Sympuls-E – Immensity
Sympuls-E blends memorable metalcore choruses with soul-stirring stringed arrangements and zealous synth work.
Review: Fliege – One Day They’ll Wonder What Happened Here
“I dunno what the hell’s in there, but it’s weird and pissed off, whatever it is.”
Review: Hexed – Pagans Rising
Bog-standard symphonic metal with excellent vocals and decent production.
Review: Numento – The Vile Entity
A talented band who play it a little too safe
Review: Condemned-AD – Follow a Failing Leader
Condemned-AD delivers an energetic thrash metal ride that certainly entertains, but that teases a measure of complexity it fails to ever really develop.
Review: Dawnwalker – House of Sand
This new road for Dawnwalker holds its own set of opportunities and challenges. Best we prime ourselves for this variation.
Review: Vrylnia – The Other World
One of the most perfectly standard symphonic power metal albums ever produced.
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.
