Review: Æthĕrĭa Conscĭentĭa – Corrupted Pillars of Vanity
Sci-fi themed progressive black metal with massive dynamics, riffs, and jazzy saxophone? Yes please.
Sci-fi themed progressive black metal with massive dynamics, riffs, and jazzy saxophone? Yes please.
An incredibly strong orchestral death metal album with a brainy progressive edge.
Impressive fretboard wizardry, gnarly snarls, blistering synths, and lyrics detailing fictional intergalactic histories… what’s not to love? This is unique, nerdy, progressive death metal goodness.
Fun, bite-sized instrumental pieces from the depths of Florida.
Impeccably written discordant, atonal chaos: impenetrable, oppressive, and heckin’ brilliant.
Chilean thrashers Demoniac begin the year with an absolute ripper of an album, with a few unique twists guaranteed to make your head bang.
Catchy hooks and outstanding vocals from a Norwegian alt-pop octet.
A hybrid-album of sorts, bound to please those that crave both speed and lack thereof.
A combination of beautiful and unsettling doom/drone goodness.
What, this album? Oh you know, It’s just prime progressive symphonic power metal is all.
