LIVE MUSIC REVIEW + INTERVIEW: Body Void (with Graboids and Pillar of Light)
Why: Because Body Void whips ass, obviously, and it turns out so do Graboids and Pillar of Light
EXCLUSIVE FULL ALBUM STREAM: Engulf – The Dying Planet Weeps
My one complaint is that I wish it were about five minutes longer, but there is something to be said for an album leaving the listener wanting more.
Obroa-Skai – Science Progresses One Funeral at a Time
Science Progresses One Funeral At A Time is a terrific piece of work, haunting, cathartic, beautiful, and devastating.
Narzissus – Akt I: Wille ~ Akt II: Fall ~ Akt III: Erlösung
This release shows all the emotional power available in black metal.
Totenmesse – Fiktionlust
Fiktionlust is more concise and doesn’t have any hiccups in the tracklist
EXCLUSIVE TRACK STREAM: Eternal Storm – A Giant Bound To Fall
The members use the various styles of metal as different mediums in their quest to create their artistic statement and are not limited by one single metal trope.
EXCLUSIVE TRACK STREAM: Walking Corpse – Born In Hell
Like a pulsating globe of razor wire and broken glass, the album chases you down intent on psychic destruction.
EXCLUSIVE TRACK STREAM: Bull of Apis Bull of Bronze – Annihilation
Allow the annihilation.
Oerheks – Valkengebed
Both hold that tension of the hunt, while also being suggestive of natural beauty.
Paint It Black – Famine
I’m embarrassed to say that Famine is serving as my introduction to the band, but these eight tracks across less than twenty minutes have placed them firmly on my radar.
