Review: Clayshaper – Vampiric
The Shaper conjures up something wicked in his debut album but evil tends to come at a price…
Review: Loch Vostok – Opus Ferox – The Great Escape
Quality writing has no genre, and it carries this album that somehow manages to have no identity for 48 minutes and still be good.
Review: Scythelord – Earth Boiling Dystopia
Progressive dystopian-space-thrash that isn’t a Vektor clone. A must-listen.
Review: Eye of Purgatory – The Lighthouse
Melodic death that is heavy, not overindulgent, and well-balanced.
Review: Starscape – Colony
A progressive sci-fi take on classic 80s heavy metal.
Review: Paranorm – Empyrean
Extreme thrash with exceptional lead guitar work.
Review: Descend – The Deviant
Descend may be the band that us Opeth fans have been looking for all these years. This is an album that is truly remarkable. A faithful continuation of Opeth’s formula all while keeping updated with the meta of twenty years of progressive death metal.
Review: ie at Heart – A Brighter Decay
Pleasant sounding alt-rock that’s perhaps a bit too stripped-down.
Missed Album Review: Vulkan – Technatura
KarniTool fans get in here
Review: Mattias Ohlsson Project – Illumination
A dollop of Haken, a slight peppering of BTBAM and the added spice of TesseracT – the ingredients for a (very pleasant) descent into insanity
