BLACK BILE – DAMNATION AS LIBERATION
DAMNATION AS LIBERATION is a brilliant rearrangement of established, even tired, tropes into an ambitious and novel style of being dark and heavy.
Riot – Rock World
If anything, look at Rockworld as an enjoyable primer for the next Riot V record. Mark Reale (R.I.P.) would be proud.
Dearth – Of Martyrdom And Polluted Faith
There is no beauty here, nor should there be. There is only a righteous simmering rage leaking out of a tightly lidded container.
FEATURE: Changeling – I/II/III
Feature article on Minneapolis RABM band Changeling featuring reviews of all three releases and an extensive conversation with the band.
Amiensus – Abreaction

Video premiere for Dehumanized from The Tragedy of Mankind by xIronSharpensIronx
Drôw – When All Is Fed
The line up works very well, creating a dismal, post-apocalyptic sound, full of ominous intent.

Vesperian Sorrow – Regenesis Creation MMXIX
This album is dark imagination writ large.
Inexorum – Moonlit Navigation
I’m going to go ahead and say it from the get go. This album is fantastic.
