Scottish one-man band Hellripper is absolutely tearing it up at the moment with The Affair of the Poisons, undoubtedly one of the coolest Metal releases of 2020. Steve, from Aeons Abyss, was very grateful that James McBain, the man who is Hellripper, took some from his hectic schedule to answer a few questions about the release. […]
Welcome to the ongoing series of articles called #EliranWatch2020 because when I see an album cover by Eliran Kantor, I write about it somewhere. […]
Stand by for high impact music. This is a dissonant piece that manages to subvert the trappings of many dissonant bands who rely on one or two repeated chord or feedback gimmicks to produce the dissonance. These guys achieve it with the song writing. Top it off with some very nice artwork and you have here a damn fine album. […]
Katalepsy is one of those bigger names that I never really listened to, so when I saw I had a promo for their newest record, I was excited to dig in! They started out as a slam band, and would later become a brutal death metal/groove metal band, which it turns out is a badass combination, cause this record fucking wrecks! […]
A pinch on the arse this record is, a solid helping of death doom with an emphasis on the death. I’ve been waiting for this one, waiting. Unfortunately for the rest of you rubes, September is when you’ll be hearing this beast in its entirety. I’d go ahead and call this a safe bet for pre-order, not only does it sound good but you can gauge your expectations by checking out their previous output, a Void Rot/Atavisma split out earlier in 2020 via Everlasting Spew. That split set a tone that I wanted more of, and here it is! […]
Behold my ability to repost a press release from Greenger Records. Kevlar Bikini, I like that name and imagery. It evokes something militant but at the same time carries that punk aesthetic of having “bikini” in the name. I’ll always be a fan of hardcore and it’s many offshoots, this new single hits just right in my opinion. Yes I’ve been drinking for three days straight. Just watch the video and support the band damn it. […]
I’m usually skeptical when I hear the term supergroup, mostly because they get a lot of coverage solely based on their reputation and less because of the quality of their music. In my experience, the majority come off as half-hearted or as a conglomerate of ideas mashed together but without a definite direction. While one might argue if Black Curse falls under the term’s umbrella, I believe that every moderately knowledgeable metalhead heard about the main bands of each respective member and can’t deny that all of them had a considerable impact on the underground scene. It’s no wonder Black Curse turned some heads when we found out that people from Primitive man, Khemmis, Spectral Voice and Blood Incantation were involved. So how does Black Curse fare when put to the test? […]
When you connect with an album at a level beyond just enjoying the music, you know that the musicians have achieved something pretty amazing. For me, The World That Was (2020) by Temple of Void is an exemplar example of musicianship, which goes into that realm of being next level song writing. […]
I’ve been listening to this album for weeks and it’s taken me some time to review it due to worldly circumstances at the moment (Black lives matter way more than promoting music). It’s been my go to album lately, up there with Sutrah, Lychgate, Ainsoph and Dyssidia. Witching combine doom sludge music with elements of post punk and post rock. It’s gloriously textured. […]
In anticipation of their upcoming self-titled album, LAMB OF GOD released the fourth single “Routes”, which also features a guest appearance of TESTAMENT’s vocalist Chuck Billy. Check out the accompanying video here: […]
