Eternal Storm – A Giant Bound to Fall Review
This Gator was instantly apprehensive, but curious to see if Eternal Storm have improved their writing. Starting out with the aptly named “An Abyss of Unreason”, the band puts its longest foot forward with an almost 14 minute long track. Is a Gator bound to fall?

Chapel of Disease – Echoes of Light Review
If the only way metal can innovate is to stop being metal altogether, it will go the same way as mainstream rock—it will die. Chapel of Disease are not Imagine Dragons of course. OR ARE THEY?

Saevus Finis – Facilis Descensus Averno Review

New year, new you: resolve to like death metal, damnit.
