Review: Lysjakt – Ethereal Palace
A modernized, death-metallized metalcore bop with great energy and excellent production.

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.

Review: Stone Healer – Conquistador
An unlikely but outstanding combination of Opethian grunge and blackened mindfuckery that’s honest, soulful, and relentlessly engaging.

Review: The Beast of Nod – Multiversal
Impressive fretboard wizardry, gnarly snarls, blistering synths, and lyrics detailing fictional intergalactic histories… what’s not to love? This is unique, nerdy, progressive death metal goodness.

A pummeling tech death offering with a cool dissonant twist.

Review: DeLuziver – Chaos Walker
A progressive death offering that just doesn’t hit the mark.

Review: Cryptodira – The Angel of History
A wonderful, well written Progressive Metal album that will remind you of early/mid era BTBAM while being very much its own voice.

Review: Omnivortex – Diagrams of Consciousness
Just a ripping technical death metal album that does not have a single boring moment or riff. And there are a lot of riffs.
