Act of Impalement – Profane Altar Review

May 28, 2025May 28, 2025 Reviewed by Cosmo No comments

2025 has, to put it bluntly, fucking sucked for me and while I’m actively working towards improving my situation, I’ve searched for music to fill that anger. It’s been a very successful quest, and I keep finding new gems to become a vital part of my rotation as a result. Today’s act is one such example: Tennessee based death metal juggernaut Act of Impalement.

Shrieking Demons – The Festering Dwellers Review

February 18, 2025February 15, 2025 Reviewed by Anti-Peat No comments

Shrieking Demons namecheck Death and Autopsy as their comparables. In terms of style, that’s pretty accurate as long as we’re talking about those bands in their earlier, rawer eras. The Festering Dwellers is all malevolently melodic riffs and pounding rhythms. Is somebody gonna match their shriek?

Autopsy – Ashes, Organs, Blood and Crypts Review

November 7, 2023November 7, 2023 Reviewed by Scuttlegoat No comments

Autopsy have a new album and it is time for The Goat to, yet again, praise the band for doing the things he would criticize other acts for. Autopsy sticks to what they know, but with Ashes, Organs, Blood and Crypts coming out barely a year after their last, should The Goat be concerned? Well there are guts in his teeth…

Warcrab – The Howling Silence Review

November 4, 2023November 5, 2023 Reviewed by Scuttlegoat No comments

The Howling Silence is definitely very easy to listen to. The material grooves and very little about it is inoffensive. Safe to say, this Warcrab will not leave you shell-shocked.
