An exciting debut occasionally marred by overzealous style shifts.

A modern, melodic take on traditional progressive death metal

Review: Boss Keloid – Family The Smiling Thrush
An excellent and multifaceted album that blends together psychedelic stoner metal, sludge, and prog rock for a heavy, groovy, uniquely uplifting trip.

Review: Atvm – Famine, Putrid and Fucking Endless
A refreshingly unique take on death metal, offering playful riffs and outstanding bass. Unpretentious but undeniably technical, with ideas that are allowed to really, fully develop, in a way that breeds an almost psychedelic atmosphere without reliance on any tropes of the ‘psychedelic’ label. The mix is pristine, the songwriting is excellent. This is absolutely fucking fantastic.

Review: Sunnata – Burning in Heaven, Melting on Earth
Hazy, stoner/psych-rock within massively satisfying post-metal structures.
