Review: James Norbert Ivanyi – Omen Faustum
A dark instrumental prog album that can hold its own.
Review: Convulsif – Extinct
Imagine spinning a wheel with 8 genres on it, the wheel breaking, and deciding you can probably get a bit of each of them into an instrumental album just to be safe.
Review: The Erkonauts – I Want It to End
If Mastodon and Gojira had a tightly written and skillfully produced punk-baby. This album packs a punch and is over before you know it.
Review: White Walls – Grandeur
A surprisingly tasteful slice of melodic and progressive metal from Romania.
Review: My Lonely Sea – Havoc
Hailing from Russia, My Lonely Sea delivers a post-black adventure that proves they can stand on their own two feet.
Review: Counteractt – Universal Sadness
Come for the pipe organ intro, stay for the deathcore carnage.
Review: Sundr – Solar Ships
An album made for the current moment: Post-Metal that reflects feelings of loneliness and isolation.
Review: Iress – Flaw
A hypnotic Post-Doom grower of an album.
Review: Intercepting Pattern – The Encounter
The Encounter seems to be an apt name for this album, seeing as this blend of jazz and almost death/tech style metal does seem to come from its own little planet outside of the rest of the scene.
Review: mortician – Endless Void
This is the kind of album that just sort of rips out your throat, shows it to you, and says “isn’t this gnarly as hell?”.
