Review: Terminus – The Silent Bell Toll
Out of the swamplands of thick sludge and angry rednecks, we now stumble upon… pop sludge? What? Did someone dump a sugar truck in my swamp or something?

Review: The Neal Morse Band – Innocence & Danger
A stellar late-career release from a group of legends

Review: Windfaerer – Breaths of Elder Dawns
A lovely epic folk/black metal album that is NOT sketchy.
Album Reviews
Review: Ænigmatum – Deconsecrate
Fantastically intricate blackened death metal with classic energy but bass-heavy and dissodeath-inspired chops.

Review: Speech Act – Letters on Extinction’s Piece
Perfection without pretention, this is fucking superb! Scratching my O’Brother itch, but so so much more – huge dynamics and post-hardcore emotions collide with impeccable songwriting sensibilities in a compelling reflection on the destruction humanity has wrought on nature.

Review: Burial in the Sky – The Consumed Self
Lose yourself in this dynamic, progressive, sax-filled technical death metal epic.
Album Reviews
Review: Moon Machine – Moon Machine
If you are someone who wishes Keor never would have diverged from Steven Wilson/Opeth inspired sound he established in Petrichor, I think I might just have the album for you.

Review: Prognostication – Collapse
Finally! A progressive technical death album with some true melodic flair and a styling of Native Construct and similar artists in the cleaner sections.

Review: Scattered Storm – Oblivion
Quality musicianship dragged down by poor mixing and a lack of originality.
