Most likely the following review would not have happened if Matteo from Falce Press would not have sent me the EPK for the album. And it would have been my loss, cause I would have missed out on a great black metal album. Vultur comes from Italy, (the island of Sardinia, more exactly) and it... Continue Reading →
Voodus is one of those bands that managed to convince after releasing only one album, thanks to the quality of the music and the dedication of the band members. Following the release of Into the Wild in 2018, they have established themselves as the creators of an outstanding occult and melancholic black metal deeply rooted... Continue Reading →
"As it was, it will be As you wait for the Sign of the Storm" I don't recall writing a heavy metal review on this page. Not that I don't like this genre, I love it, I grew up with it and it's in my blood. It's just that until now I did not find... Continue Reading →
Necromaniac is a band I was not aware of until recently, when I received the EPK for their debut album "Sciomancy, Malediction & Rites Abominable". The record came out on the 13th of January on CD (vinyl format will be released later), as a joint coop between Invictus Prod and The Ajna Offensive. The band... Continue Reading →
As I draw the line, I think 2024 has been a good year for me and the music I discovered and listened to. My only problem is that I don't have enough time to listen to all the music I want and that, truth be told, there are a lot of bands out there. It's... Continue Reading →
Tribulation should not be a mystery to anyone anymore. Since its inception in 2004, the Swedish quartet has constantly undergone through a bunch of stylistic changes that have confused (and perhaps divided) many of its listeners. What some might call sell out or mainstream-ising (sic!), I call development and Tribulation is one of the few... Continue Reading →
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 →
After an explosive and highly appreciated promo tape which came out almost 3 years ago, Hungarian black metal band Lidérc finally releases its first full length album, "Profán Mystérium", on the 9th of March. Sun and Moon Records will handle the CD version while the tape will be co released with Total Darkness Propaganda, in... Continue Reading →
Cave Altar is not a stranger to these pages. Back in 2021 I have already reviewed their first manifestation, the "Impermanence" demo tape. 2 years after that material, the band released its follow up, "Serenity in Ruins", via Fekete Terror Productions. This EP came out on blue tape, limited to 66 pieces. Musically the new... Continue Reading →
