Review: Mothman and the Thunderbirds – Into the Hollow
A fun album about the uncovering of some of the world’s most hidden conspiracies. This is a decent edition for collectors of progressive stoner/sludge metal.
Review: Pentral – What Lies Ahead of Us
A surprisingly progressive album about the struggles of urban life. This is heavy metal done right.
Review: Before & Apace – The Denisovan
A movement and theme based heavy prog album with some interesting twists sprinkled in.
Review: Lysjakt – Ethereal Palace
A modernized, death-metallized metalcore bop with great energy and excellent production.
Review: Blackshape – Blackshape
Accurately self-proclaimed “Heavy, beautiful math”
Review: Dead World Reclamation – Aura of Iniquity
A grandiose melodeath anthology of Lovecraftian tales.
Review: Odd Circus – Mantha
A brief dive into avant garde psychadelic insanity
Review: Grorr – Ddulden’s Last Flight
A 36 minute “one-track-feel” album that blends djenty melodies and oriental undertones. Does it work though?
Review: Egor Lappo – Trancevoicer
This collection of melodic sci-fi songs is perfect for fans of Voyager and Rendezvous Point. Egor Lappo is right to be proud of his work.
Review: Black Sheep Wall – Songs for the Enamel Queen
For fans of: riffs as heavy as an elephant stepping on you.
