Review: Rick Massie – Guided to an Imperfect Light
An album whose flaws becoming the hallmarks on a compellingly charming album.
Review: Fall of Stasis – The Chronophagist
Tech death musician tries to write about an album that’s not really tech death. Fails miserably. More at 11.
Review: Iomair – Fishing For An Apparition
I do not like folk metal.
Review: Trailight- Chasing Daylight
Lofty intentions from a Canadian Prog-Rock group.
Review: Hands of Despair – The Crimson Boughs (And Other Short Tales)
They’ve done it again.
Review: Naevius – Sad and Horny
There is some potential here for sure, but I don’t think it was taken very seriously. Hopefully it isn’t meant to be taken seriously.
Review: Deviant Process – Nurture
Deliciously proggy techdeath with palpable Cynic influences.
Review: Épiphanie – L’aube
The best musical character arc of 2021.
Review: Before & Apace – The Denisovan
A movement and theme based heavy prog album with some interesting twists sprinkled in.
Review: Intonate – Severed Within
Wonderful dissonant tech death with enough elements from black and doom to be fresh and exciting
