Review: Calliophis – Liquid Darkness
Melodic death doom that needs some work on the death part.
Album Reviews
Review: Gravestone – Ars Arcana
The songs take a lot of strange turns, with chord changes and melodies never quite leading where you expect, but ending up somewhere tasteful nonetheless.

Review: Khabal – The Divine Deception
This blackened deathcore album will chill you with its brutally crushing downtuned riffs, and agonizing gutturals. If you’re not mentally prepared for this album, I’d turn elsewhere.

Review: Scythelord – Earth Boiling Dystopia
Progressive dystopian-space-thrash that isn’t a Vektor clone. A must-listen.

Review: Polars Collide – Grotesque
The best groove metal album to come out over the past couple years. This is will please headbangers and Meshuggah fans alike.

Review: Alustrium – A Moment to Silence
A modern, melodic take on traditional progressive death metal

Review: Mindpatrol – Ikaria
An ambitious release, with no drought of classic progressive metal tropes.

Review: Acausal Intrusion – Nulitas
An otherworldly, transcendental trip through challenging chaos – sinister, twisted, blackened, dissonant chaos, perfectly balanced on the edge of consciousness.
Album Reviews
Review: Crimson Dimension – Crimson Dimension
A blackened death album serving as a great debut for a new band.

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.
