Read moreSpooktober Pairing! Regurgitate vs Peter Jackson
We here at The Goat Review embrace both the spooky in sound and in picture. Today, our own Scuttlegoat steps forward to recommend you an album from the gore-kissed side, Carnivorous Erection, and a film from the spewing side, Braindead. Partake in one or both or neither, just make sure it doesn’t last more than four hours…
Read moreBlighted Eye – Agony’s Bespoke Review
One of the joys of reviewing is forcing yourself to distill how you truly feel about a piece of art. The more complicated your initial feelings, the more fun the review is.

You could say that it’s a subtle telegraphing of the direction Unto Others have taken with this album, as more than half the songs lean toward the softer side of their style. Here’s hoping they’re just trying out a never groove.
Read moreKanonenfieber – Die Urkatastrophe Review
Kanonenfieber barely qualify for the blackened death metal moniker. Their interpretation of war is one of pathos, bittersweet glory, and they express it in a matter both melodic and anthemic. And they sound surprisingly similar to Amon Amarth. Nothing like a good Viking raid in the trenches.
