Read moreOdious Spirit – The Treason of Consciousness Review
James Oskarbski, the main brain behind Odious Spirit, is not afraid to use all kinds of effects to create the best kind of oppressive music. The main ingredient on this fantabulous album is psychedelic guitar witchcraft. Get spooky with Odious Spirit!
Read moreUnto Others – Never, Neverland Review
Unto Others have put out their third full length effort – Never, Neverland, a title that immediately brings an uneasy connotation by reminding me of Metallica and their self titled album. 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 morePyrrhon – Exhaust Review
“…Fuck man, I just wanna go home” vocalist Doug Moore lambasts on “The Greatest City on Earth.” Thematically, Exhaust channels the most pissed-off version of Pyrrhon into a thirty-eight minute record, a record made by people broken down by the ever-growing financial strains of living in their home of New York City.

Read morePneuma Hagion – From Beyond Review
Pneuma Hagion are back and they’re meaner than ever. From impressive lyrical content about a tyrant taking control of the known world by force and murdering any dissidents to their empire to earth-shattering riffs and blasts, the most impressive thing about Pneuma Hagion is that it’s just two people. May them blow the winds of tyranny with their crushing riffs.

Feel good music or feel bad music?
Read moreAseitas – Eden Trough Review
Experimentation is abundant in the extreme bounds of metal today. While a lot of bands look for something worthwhile by trying odd techniques, it’s easy to lose sight of working on a defining sound, something that makes a band have that special pull divorced from just pure technique. Aseitas had that from the start. But it’s been a long, trough road for them.
Read moreVoid Witch – Horripilating Presence
As he ages, Bobo finds himself drawn to death/doom music, much like an older bear preferring scavenging over chasing prey. He enjoys watching it slowly die, whether it’s a fresh corpse or a decomposed cadaver. Though he usually prefers the latter, Void Witch caught him hungry enough to listen to their final pleas. How quickly will he tear them apart?
