Lustmord – Much Unseen Is Also Here (Pelagic Records)

Ah. A precious night arrives as here we have the absolute legendary entity that is Lustmord arriving to prove that only true vision and genius can do dark ambient so well. Brian Williams, the Welsh maestro behind this name, returns… Continue Reading →

Paranoia Inducta – Blood Electric (Heerwegen Tod Production)

This was a welcome arrival and I have a new ‘chill out’ album to go to here and make a change from all the noisy metal stuff. It’s a bit ironic really that it comes from a Polish musician who… Continue Reading →

Ord And Demonologists – Secret Ceremonies (Aesthetic Death)

More strangeness from the strange dimension that is Aesthetic Death, definitely one of the most adventurous labels out there. This time we have a collaboration between Ord (sole member Ord Err) and Demonologists (Cory Rowell, Evan Price) both I guess… Continue Reading →

Xasthur – Inevitably Dark (Lupus Lounge)

What is exactly is the relationship between the artist and the audience? Does either owe the other anything? When I was young and full of fire and self-righteous opinions, Cold Lake and One Second felt like betrayals. Of course they… Continue Reading →

Paranoia Inducta – Demon’s Factory (Heerwegen Tod Production)

I do like getting odd things in the post with no accompanying explanation about them and at first I thought I had been sent a film here as it is presented in a DVD style case. On further exploration I… Continue Reading →

Necropolissebeht – TTCCCLXXX (Vault of Dried Bones)

This is certainly an EP of two halves and a rather strange one too. Necropolissebeht are a collaboration between German and Canadian members Hekla (Hadopelagyal), Axaazaroth (Nuclearhammer) and errr Ryan. Now Ryan may not have wanted to play the gateway… Continue Reading →

Final Light – Final Light (Red Creek)

I admit I jumped on this when it showed up: Billed as a one-time only project, this is Perturbator collaborating with Cult Of Luna’s Johannes Persson which to me just sounded potentially brilliant. So, not sure what it would be… Continue Reading →

Various Artists – The Others – Lustmord Deconstructed (Pelagaic)

I saw recently someone exclaim “Hey this dark ambient is a piece of piss to do…” Joking or not the difference of course is that bad, dull, average may be accessible to anyone with a rudimentary software package and a… Continue Reading →

Phalanx Inferno / Melek-Tha – Order Of Eternal Indifference (Godz Ov War)

Interesting bedfellows on this split album. On the one hand we have a death metal band from the USA and on the other a dark ambient industrial artist from France. So, we get a mix here from brutal and horrifying… Continue Reading →

Crimson Throne – Instinct (Apocalyptic Witchcraft)

It’s odd. Blame the plague but I realised when I got this that I hadn’t heard anything from this atmospheric UKBM band for a couple of years and from what I thought was just a diversification from their sound on… 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 →

Haiku Funeral – Drown Their Moons In Blood (Aesthetic Death)

Music for a ritual, or a ritual set to music? Either of these descriptions could be viable as far as the strange world of Haiku Funeral are concerned and they are far from the easiest outfit to get to grips… Continue Reading →
