Review: Kaupe – Cognitive Dissonance
Fun, bite-sized instrumental pieces from the depths of Florida.
Review: Sunnata – Burning in Heaven, Melting on Earth
Hazy, stoner/psych-rock within massively satisfying post-metal structures.
Review: Ad Nauseam – Imperative Imperceptible Impulse
Impeccably written discordant, atonal chaos: impenetrable, oppressive, and heckin’ brilliant.
Review: Cave of Swimmers – Aurora
A progressive metal album that is actually safe to show to friends and family? This tightly packed album excels in its energetic rhythm and shower-worthy hooks.
Review: The Lylat Continuum – Ephemeral
Literally drifting through space, watching the world burn, awaiting your demise. One can either seek bliss or turn to madness.
Review: Karmanjakah – A Book About Itself
Djent from Sweden that breathes fresh life into a tired genre.
Review: Truls Haugen – The Haugen Archives
A small, solo output that is enjoyable and memorable.
Review: Klexos – Apocryphal Parabolam
A pummeling tech death offering with a cool dissonant twist.
Review: Paranorm – Empyrean
Extreme thrash with exceptional lead guitar work.
Review: Spire – Temple of Khronos
Cerebral and atmospheric black metal tackling the tyranny of time itself
