Richmond Virginia’s Appalling return with their second full length album Inverted Realm out on Redefining darkness records. I must admit I was not familiar with this group until reading the band’s bio in which Angel Corpse was mentioned as an influence. Appalling play quite a catchy form of blackened death thrash that reminds me of […]

Willowtip Records have to be one of the most diverse underground metal labels out there. With over a half dozen new releases on deck for 2019 Jason Tipton has built quite the label lineup of diverse talent (Ceremony of Silence, Vale of Pnath,). New Jersey’s Hath are no exception. Debuting way back in 2015 these […]

First off- Love that cover- I want that on a giant print or t-shirt. Second, Valdur has quickly released their 6th album, barely a year after their last effort, Divine Cessation, came out. How’s that for production? Third, the band appears to have swung the pendulum ever so slightly back towards their black metal roots from the pure, noisy […]

In the grand tradition of underrated, fellow Chicagoans, Forest of Impaled, Blood of the Wolf erupt from the Midwest with a stellar sophomore release of pummeling, blood pumping blackened, death/war metal and it’s a god damn scorcher. I have not heard the band’s debut I: The Law of Retaliation, but you can bet I’ll be rectifying […]

I’m not familiar with California’s Valdur other than they started out as a standard USBM band back about a decade ago and this very site reviewed their 2009 split with Fellow Californians Lightning Swords of Death, whom i have heard. So I was in fact expecting some black metal, but what I got was an […]

Wisconsin’s Emblazoned released their debut album, in 2014, Eucharistiae Sacramentum and it was outstanding. Even topping their 2013 ep, The Living Magisterium. They return with their second full-length, Catharsis. Emblazoned have always had a black metal edge to the death metal sound and the black metal moments definitely are taking center stage with Catharsis. […]

As I looked over the cover artwork for these Aussies, which I like, reminiscent of the great Chris Moyen (Abominant, Absu, Archgoat, Beherit, Goatlord etc) I sarcastically think to myself, “Uuuhm, I wonder what they will sound like?” First song “Hammer of Hatred” kicks in and it’s full on Marduk, meets Angelcorpse and I love it.
