After doing Warbringer’s recent album I happily find myself able to review yet another crushing thrash band that’s been terrorizing everyone since 2017. Enforced recently released their second full length and first with Century Media Records titled “Kill Grid”. Hailing from Richmond Virginia these thrashers are a punishing mix of more extreme melodic metal and […]

Frozen Soul – Crypt of Ice
The year is 2021 and it seems like yet again, Death Metal bands pop up with releases like mushrooms after the rain. Like drunkards after a festival. Like pandemics after a… Ah, joke’s gone. Anyway, sometimes a group of people can just play some good Death Metal, without trying to reinvent the wheel. A band […]
Soulburn – Noa’s D’ark
Soulburn was formed in 1996 in the Netherlands, their latest release is titled “Noa’s D’ark”. It is evident after only a minute into the opening track “The Morgue of Hope” what this album was going to bring. That is dark, grindy distorted guitars and raspy grungy vocals sounding as if they were spawned from the […]
Dark Tranquility- Moment
Since 1989 there has been a consistent and well known driving force in melodic death metal and more specifically, melodic death metal exemplifying traditional Gothenburg sound; Dark Tranquility. After 31 years of experience and a fairly traditional formula that Dark Tranquility implements, on their newest full length they remain committed to their signature sound. With […]
Necrophobic – Dawn Of The Damned
When a band goes through the test of time, sometimes it changes. Most would say that it’d be for the worse (the good old “Only their demo was real!” argument), some would say for the better. Some would just not say anything and listen each time something new from a band pops up, without having […]
Finntroll – Vredesvävd
To all of you who have been living under a rock the past decades and don’t know Finntroll yet, let me introduce them to you. First of all, you are quite alike. The combination of rocks and trolls seem to be a thing, and ever since they have taken on their new pointy ear look […]
Black Crown Initiate – Violent Portraits of Doomed Escape
Black Crown Initiate is a band that caught my immediate attention in …2015 give or take. I was simply working around my house with some ear buds in jamming some Pandora, on my Beyond Creation station. I was hit with some beautiful melodies and heavy verses, I instantly looked at my telephone with great curiosity […]
Skeletal Remains – The Entombment Of Chaos
Many styles have seen ups and downs over the years. Some went almost extinct when the next big thing came along, and some just faded away. Others, seemed like they slowly sank into the never-ending hole of styles that had a peak years ago, and would never recover, unless a think rope would be thrown […]
Naglfar – Cerecloth
It’s hard to believe that it has been eight years already since Naglfar their last album Téras was released. The album followed in line after Pariah and Harvest, whereas Naglfar their sound became less raw and more polished. As with many bands there are ‘old sound’ and ‘new sound’ camps, but I’m in both camps […]
Aborted – La Grande Mascarade
Aborted is a Brutal Death Metal Band from Waregem, Belgium. Forming Back in 1995 by lead vocalist Sven de Caluwé. With 10 studio albums and 6 EPs to their name, it’s fair to say Aborted is one of the hardest working bands touring these days. Aborted has a new EP out called “La Grande Mascarade” […]
