Two years after the release of one of the best demo tapes I listened to these past years, the Malmö based trio Ultra Silvam strike back with their first full length, The Spearwound Salvation, which will come out next month, on the 22nd of March. As their previous material, the album will be once again... Continue Reading →
I first came across the name Voodus when I listened to the Night Queen EP released 3 years ago. To this day I still cannot say it's a favorite of mine, no matter how hard I tried. Then, in 2017, they released their 2nd EP, Serpent Seducer Saviour and something was clearly happening with(in) the... Continue Reading →
Do you like galloping riffs and sing-a-long choruses? Maybe you fancy frenzied blast beats and groovy guitar parts? Well, in that case this review is definitely not for you, simply because Sektarism is the exact opposite of what I described above. With Fils de Dieu, their third full length album which was released more than... Continue Reading →
Once upon a time in Norway, there was this band called Immortal...This is how I could have started a brief history about this famed Norwegian black metal band and its influence it had over the unsuspecting black metal scene which was about to be born 27 years ago. But since everyone already knows who Immortal... Continue Reading →
Heic Noenum Pax or Here's no Peace, as Marduk once put it so well. Starting with Wormwood, they got us used to releasing albums every three years, in a feverishly chronology. So, 3 years after the surprisingly good Frontschwein, Marduk will release on the 22nd of June their 14th full length album, Viktoria (Century Media... Continue Reading →
I started to come across the name Ygfan quite often these past months: whenever I was checking my social media profile, there was at least one mention of this name or of the band's soon to be released album, Hamvakból. Then, on June the 2nd, I remembered that Ygfan will play in Budapest, in a... Continue Reading →
"And all that is Holy, Holy shall be". He who listeneth to black metal should have heareth about Funeral Mist. At least once in his life time. After the MCD Devilry (1998) and 2 albums, Salvation (2003) and Maranatha (2009), the infamous Swedish black metal band is back (from the dead) with a spiteful vengeance.... Continue Reading →
On the 23rd of March, the Norwegian band Djevel has released through the old trusty Aftermath Music its 5th opus titled Blant Svarte Graner (Among Black Grains). The whole concept of the album is based upon the Black Death which silently swept through Europe between 1347 and 1351, wiping out almost half if of its... Continue Reading →
I made my first audio contact with Spite after I listened to the promo I got for the release of their first full length, "Antimoshiach", which came out a couple of months ago on the Irish label Invictus Productions. I am usually quite reluctant when it comes to black metal made in USA (I hate... Continue Reading →
One of the best debut demo tapes released last year comes from Sweden, of course. Umea to be exact, the birth place of Malakhim, the new band in town when it comes to black metal. Released first in October 2017 on the band's Bandcamp page, Demo I gained immediately a "cult" status in the black... Continue Reading →
