Review: SkyThala – Boreal Despair
A bunch of guys from Tennessee wrote high modern Russian classical??
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.
Review: Lamentations – Passion of Depression
Well, well, if it isn’t one of this year’s best prog death releases.
Review: Fliege – One Day They’ll Wonder What Happened Here
“I dunno what the hell’s in there, but it’s weird and pissed off, whatever it is.”
Review: Diagonal Path – Atheist Cathedrals
A strong showing of technical strengths that doesn’t go out of its way just to be different.
Review: Gonemage – Handheld Demise
What was originally intended to scare my peers ended up hurting my ears; however, Gonemage still have a relatively unique take on avant garde black metal worth trying for as long as you can stand it.
Review: iNFiNiEN – Beyond the Veil
A fourth outing from the chaotic and jazzy Philadelphia band with their caps lock key stuck half on.
Review: Arsena – Blood Rusted Mother Earth
Band with designs on genre defying progressive experimentation release a straight thrash album instead.
Review: Marbin – Dirty Horse
A genre-bending masterpiece of jazz fusion.
Review: Barn – Habitat
Barn’s Habitat is the ideal way for kids born in the 90’s and later to experience old school death metal.
