Review: Thy Darkened Shade – Liber Lvcifer II: Mahapralaya

While the lyrics may be trope-y black metal, the music is anything but (that fretless bass)…

Review: Ultar – At The Gates Of Dusk

They must know it was the rats; the slithering, scurrying rats whose scampering will never let me sleep; the daemon rats that race behind the padding in this room and beckon me down to greater horrors than I have ever known; the rats they can never hear; the rats, the rats in the walls.

Review: Collapse Astral – Dans la Vallée des Astres

The intro lured me in to thinking there would be a more experimental album within, but this is a reasonable debut outing.

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: Firtan – Marter

Firtan express bleak lyrical prose in a way only the German language can convey and combine it with a somber atmospheric black metal tonality.

Review: Gonemage – Handheld Demise

What was originally intended to scare my peers ended up hurting my ears; however, Gonemage still have a relatively unique take on avant garde black metal worth trying for as long as you can stand it.
