I don't know if this has been done deliberately or it's just pure coincidence, but it seems to me that Lifvsleda has made a habit of releasing an album every two years, which is an absolute joy for guys like me, who truly love this band. Lifvsleda is one of my favorite bands out there... Continue Reading →
I recently got a promo in my mailbox which instantly caught my attention, due to its bold and "arrogant" description:" “Poisonous Metal” is a homage to the black metal renaissance of the 2000s, the so-called orthodox current – resonating with the spirit of notable acts like Malign, Watain, and Ofermod. But this is more than a mere tribute;... Continue Reading →

Cave Altar is not a stranger to these pages.

Lo and behold! The mighty Boarhammer has returned to the pages of Scrolls! After the review of their highly acclaimed demo "I: Cutting Wood for Magickal Purposes" and an in-depth interview, now it's time to analyze the band's first full length album that we've all waited for for so long. "II: Chemognosis - A Shortcut... Continue Reading →
Compared to the past years, I did not pay too much attention to all the music that came out in 2023. As I see it, there's simply too much music being released, too many bands out there and not enough time. That's why for my 2023 end of year list I only chose 5 releases... Continue Reading →
Marblebog is one of Hungary's oldest black metal bands, whose activity spans for more than 2 decades. During this whole time, besides being very productive and creative music wise, (its discography is rich in full lengths, split albums or EPs), the band has also experienced a troubled existence, disbanding and reuniting several times over the...

A few days ago I discovered in my mailbox the promo material for the band Countess Erzsebet which apparently is a one woman band hailing from the States. The main character behind this project is going by the name of Rachel Bloodspell Moongoddess (she also played in Xasthur at some point) and on the 28th... Continue Reading →
