Exhumed / Gruesome – Twisted Horror (Split)
Straight Outta San Jose, California I present EXHUMED! EXHUMED have blazed the way for old school sounding death metal since 1991. The band’s founder and sole remaining member Matt Harvey was a whopping 15 years old when he formed the band. EXHUMED spent much of the ensuing decade hacking their way through numerous line-ups, demos, […]
Precambrian – Tectonics
The earth moves and changes at a speed we as humans can’t perceive, spanning over the ages back to the Precambrian, the earliest (informal) geological time. Naming themselves after this period, Ukrainian black metal formation Precembrian are about to release their debut record ‘Tectonics’ via Primitive Reaction. The line-up of the band currently play in […]
Carach Angren- Franckensteina Strataemontanus
Haunting, conceptual, fantasmic, theatrical; Netherlands’ Carach Angren certainly know how to tell a story. Carach Angrens ability to use a composition as the canvas to carry a literary theme throughout the entirety of an album is something that must be acknowledged and appreciated. Its as if each song fits together like a chilling piece of […]

This culmination of influences allows Terradown to reach out to a diverse fan base and pull listeners in from many of the subgenres that we […]
Nightwish – Human. :||: Nature.
First of all, let me apologize for delivering this review to all our readers this late. Sometimes a record just needs some extra time to sink in, yet a few months after release is quite a bit too late obviously. To be fair, when I first listened to Human :||: Nature, I did not really […]
The Committee – Utopian Deception
Black metal collective The Committee stormed the metal scene with their previous records, ‘Power Through Unity’ (2014) and ‘Memorandum Occultus’ (2017). While gaining recognition with these albums, the band played both underground and well known extreme / black metal festivals. Even though it’s only been three years since their last release, the third full-length ‘Utopian […]
