Iterum Nata – From the Infinite Light (Nordvis)

Based on the theme of darkness and light, “the two voices” as the artist behind Iterum Nata calls it, this album crosses numerous genres, amongst them folk and neo-folk, black and doom metal and progressive rock. Our senses are made… Continue Reading →

Grieve – Wolves Of The Northern Moon (Werewolf Records)

It looks like the nails I hammered into the coffin of this Finnish band’s first and supposedly only full length were premature as the duo of V-Khaoz and Werwolf of Vargrav and Satanic Warmaster respectively, to name just one notable… Continue Reading →

Mordhell – Satanic Wombs (Fallen Temple)

Since 2003 a sickening plague has been sweeping across Europe, a plague hailing from Poznan in Poland. And that pestilential entity is heathen Black Metal horde Mordhell, who towards the end of last year shat out their fourth full length… Continue Reading →

Druadan Forest – Portals (Werewolf Records)

Ever had the feeling you’re on to a hiding to nothing with trying to review an album? I was so taken with the last album by Finnish black metal/dungeon synth project Druadan Forest (the domain of V-Khaoz) that I bought… Continue Reading →

Grieve – Funeral (Werewolf Records)

For some reason the Finnish black metal scene has always held something above other black metal scenes in other countries, I am not quite sure what it is that attracts me to the bands from the frosty country but one… Continue Reading →

CMPT – Krv I Pepeo (Osmose)

This here is the debut album from the anonymous entity that is the Serbian CPMT, apparently pronounced SMRT and which translates as Death in most Slavic languages. Lesson over. With a cover that is very much the continuation of their… Continue Reading →

Moon – Pandimensional Gnosis (Moribund Records)

Plumbing the depths for their fourth album are Australian occult black metallers Moon. Atmosphere, atmosphere and atmosphere was what I was expecting from this one. Sure enough we’re plunged into an echoing violent world from the beginning. Haunting and distant… Continue Reading →

Mulla – جن (Subsound Records)

Any band purporting to be from a country you wouldn’t expected metal, never mind extreme metal, from will always catch my attention. However, there is some controversy and debate as to whether this band actually does hail from Iraq as… Continue Reading →

Pa Vesh En – Maniac Manifest (Iron Bonehead)

Dodgy things may or may not be happening in Belarus, but I’ve found this is a go-to country when it comes to metal music. Here’s another one in Pa Vesh En, a black metal project with the values of emptiness,… Continue Reading →

Fuath – II (Season of Mist)

An offshoot of Saor, Fuath’s atmospheric black metal takes its influence from original 90s black metal but also the harsh and rugged landscapes of Scotland and its cultural heritage. The artist behind Fuath quotes the ritual of walking through the… Continue Reading →

Wolvencrown – A Shadow Of What Once Was (Clobber Records)

There’s a title to conjure with. A hint of Burzum history, a glance back at old worlds or a comment on where the world of music is now? All of them? Anyway, we have three new songs from this excellent… Continue Reading →

Neige et Noirceur – Bach: Preludium Minor (Avantgarde Music)

I know most of Neige et Noirceur’s back catalogue, and I think it’s fair to say that this one-man project always has an interesting take on black metal. This album is no exception. As the title may suggest it is… Continue Reading →
