Review: Growth – The Smothering Arms of Mercy
A claustrophobic exploration of hope and suffering through tight, ferocious death metal.
Review: Apokrisis – Misanthropy
A modern, extremified take on tech-thrash with solid energy.
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.
Review: Contrarian – Only Time Will Tell
A sci-fi adventure through time and space, inspired by tech death oldies like Death and Atheist.
Review: Alustrium – Insurmountable
The next generation of progressive death metal is in good hands.
Review: Coexistence – Collateral Dimension
Refreshing, smooth as butter technical death metal that is both familiar and its own.
Review: Counteractt – Universal Sadness
Come for the pipe organ intro, stay for the deathcore carnage.
Review: mortician – Endless Void
This is the kind of album that just sort of rips out your throat, shows it to you, and says “isn’t this gnarly as hell?”.
Review: Sacred Serenity – Redefining Life
Austrian old school tech-death band delivers a blast to the past. Short, aggressive, and fun!
Review: Wills Dissolve – Echoes
A wonderful 31-minute song combining tech death with Opethian songwriting – a must hear album.
