"In the far dark corners of every human’s soul there lurks a black crouching spectre. The ghost-like shadow that waits. A shrouded thing that pulsates with malignant evil. The name of that ghost, is…Hagzissa". But who is this Hagzissa, you might ask, and why am I talking about this band? Well, to begin with, they... Continue Reading →
I first saw Testament live 16 years ago at Sziget Fesztival, but I cannot recall too much of their performance considering the fact that their show took place right after Slayer destroyed the main stage, when they performed the famous Reign in Blood in full. 16 more years had to pass for me to be...

The coldness of the place and the silence of the statues are pierced by the rays of the sun which enter through the beautiful stained glass. As you glance in awe at this beautiful sight, the dust particles... Continue Reading →

This EP will see the light of... Continue Reading →
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 →
On the 5th of May Abysmal Grief played a show in Budapest's Durer Pince (a very dark, small and obscure room part of the more famous Durer Kert concert hall), supporting their new album, Blasphema Secta which came out earlier this year. I had the pleasure to participate in this interview with Regen Graves arranged... Continue Reading →
