Reviews: MI Metal Shows & Albums
Here’s Our Opinion.
EXCLUSIVE TRACK STREAM: My Hair Is A Rat’s Nest – Callous
Acoustic sounding parts are included in a few places to contrast the melancholic and dissonant riffing which divides the rest of the album into a frothing sea of emotion.

EXCLUSIVE TRACK PREMIERE: Veilburner – Ruin

EXCLUSIVE TRACK PREMIERE: Dysgnostic – Eternal Recurrence
Like a serpent slithering forth from some dark corner, Scar Echoes crawls forth, reptilian and threatening.
EXCLUSIVE TRACK PREMIERE: Devenial Verdict – The Contemptor
