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

Review: Cicada the Burrower – Corpseflower
This is a truly magical and utterly unique album filled with lush, mellow, hypnotic soundscapes that eerily distort themselves into blackened, pained harshness, without skipping a jazzy beat. You need to hear it to believe it.

Review: Sleep Terror – Above Snakes
Imagine if crunchy technical death metal was scattered through a spaghetti western movie.

Review: Unflesh – Inhumation
A great blackened techy melodic death album that has atmosphere to match its morose cover.

A solid instrumental debut from a promising solo artist.

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.
