Review: Novembre – Words of Indigo
Novembre put out the perfect soundtrack for watching the leaves fall, anticipating the first snows, and grieving your motorcycle rides.
Review: Starbynary – Romeo and Juliet, Pt. I
In fair Trieste where we lay our scene, from ancient playwright break to new concept album, where Italian blood makes Italian hands play metal.
Review: Esox – Watery Grave
Folklore, Mantles, Marrows, and Serpents, oh my!
Review: Messa – The Spin
Should I bother making a joke about “spinning” this album? Do the kids even know what that means? Probably not.
Review: Benthos – From Nothing
“You stare at Benthos, they stare right back. And that’s when the sick mathcore comes, not from the front, but from the side. The point is, when they deliver sick mathcore, you are alive.”
– Sam Neill in Jurassic Park if you replaced raptors with Benthos, probably.
Review: Ologram – La Mia Scia
Ologram’s “La Mia Scia” is a melancholic and contemplative progressive rock album that struggles to leave a lasting trail.
Review: Selvans – Saturnalia
Balling out with a full orchestra, the Italian horror black/heavy project returns for its final album.
Double Review: Opera Nera – The Tempest
If music be the food of love, then open up this fucking pit.
Missed Album Review: Kingcrow – Hopium
Don’t you also love it when your favorite band is blissfully unaware of meme culture?
Review: Beriedir – Liminal Spaces
Backrooms, thy name is power/prog!
