Review: Wandering Oak – Resilience
A beautiful balancing act of folk and metal that manages to keep itself composed on the tightrope for most of its duration
Review: Death Mex – Rebuild & Resist
Death Mex : Headbanging :: Tex Mex : Tooting
Review: Dissimulator – Lower Form Resistance
Dissimulator are totally radical throwback tech thrash. Tubular.
Review: Xoth – Exogalactic
The speedsters deliver the best thrash album of the year.
Review: Medevil – Mirror in the Darkness
Medevil’s latest offering of epic heavy metal takes a familiar formula and sprinkles it with some flourishes but does little to innovate upon it.
Review: Enopolis – ISIHASTIKA
An instructive case study in how not to write music.
Review: Anarchÿ – Retching Necropolis
Anarchÿ teases with a couple of morsels for those of you hungering for more epic, progressive, sometimes-neoclassical-thrash metal debauchery. And for dessert: sludge.
Review: Quasarborn – Novo Oružje Protiv Bola
Belgrade, new thrash capital of Europe? Quasarborn pull no punches on this pounding release!
Review: Raze The Void – Para Sempre
Brits bringing a hefty mix of thrash, maths, and melodic death. Kitchen sink included.
Review: Anarchÿ – Sentïence
Anarchÿ’s first full-length is complex, aggressive, and melodic, and contains a nearly 32-minute thrash metal epic. Sentïence truly is an album like few others.
