Memnoch – Command Hallucination
5/10 Picture this: A pretty little angel flows down from the heavens to spread love and joy to this earth. Now picture a demon grabbing the angel by the ankle and dragging it down to […]

Sevendust – All I See is War
8.5/10 What’s most interesting about Sevendust’s latest release All I See is War is that it seems to be not only an acceptance of being pigeonholed into a style of music that became popular in […]

NIF – Above The Sky
8.5/10 The fact that Above The Sky exists at all is pretty impressive. Recorded over the course of a year in Kediri, Indonesia by Faishal Hanif, it has already surpassed one of its biggest hurdles by […]

Madball – For the Cause
8/10 “If it ain’t broke don’t fix it” is a sentiment that is constantly lost on a lot of bands. The never-ending pursuit of the perfect sound is a plague that has made and broken […]

Dimmu Borgir – Eonian
5.5/10 Norway’s best-known export, Dimmu Borgir needs no introduction – they’ve been the leading exponent of symphonic black metal since helping to establish the genre’s roots in the mid-1990s and have crafted some of the […]

Dogmathica – Start Becoming Nothing
8.5/10 Internet, meet Dogmathica, Dogmathica, meet my loins and all this bothersome heat you’ve created. Hailing from Cagliari, Sardinia, Italy, this five-piece meal of mean mother fucking metal come to your face today to bring […]
