Plague Weaver – Ascendant Blasphemy
Foul atmosphere and pugilistic attacks leave the listener mentally bloody, with bruised psyche, ready to relent the demands of the artists.
Grale – Agitacion
One definitely feels agitated throughout each listen. Adrenaline spikes. Pulse of energy run up and down the nervous system, and then it’s over.
Fractal Generator – Macrocosmos
Strange riffs interweave in strange ways in a composition aimed at otherworldly atmospherics.
TRACK PREMIERE: Malacoda – Deadlights
Crawling Chaos has many layers that I keep discovering with every listen, much like the horror stories the songs are based on have many layers themselves.
Olde – Pilgrimage
“One small world, in decline.” – In Defiance
ALBUM PREMIERE: Rampancy – Coming Insurrection
The album is ethereal, but also urgent.
Sarin – You Can’t Go Back
You Can’t Go Back is heavy! Sometimes that means musically heavy, but throughout the entire album, it means emotionally heavy.
Voivod – The Lost Machine
“The machine was going full on. We were really tight and the vibe was great.” – Away
Shezmu – À Travers Les Lambeaux
Dissonance and psychedelia and brutality..oh, my…
Serene Dark – Enantiodromia
Altogether, SERENE DARK represents a significant advance from the band’s previous manifestation and gives listeners a seamless, varied, and epic articulation of black metal, melodic death metal, old school death metal, and deathcore whilst focusing on a fascinating and poignant psychological exploration.
