Castrator – Defiled In Oblivion (Dark Descent)

Berator – Elysian Inferno (Dark Descent)

Well this is a little charmer of an EP out of Chicago. A nice, gnarly build up on ‘Sultans Of Incest’ before the rabid dogs are unleashed in an avalanche of old school filthy death metal with all the subtlety… Continue Reading →

Corpsessed – Succumb To Rot (Dark Descent)

Grave Miasma – Abyss of Wrathful Deities (Dark Descent)

In the years that followed the release of Incantation’s ‘Primordial Domination’ there was an explosion of bands trying to replicate that murky, cavernous strain of death metal. Of the small cluster that popped up, only three surged in popularity and… Continue Reading →

Undergang – Aldrig I Livet (Dark Descent / Me Saco Un Ojo Records)

I adore the fact that so many OSDM bands are cropping up nowadays, it feels like being a part of the 90s scene, which as someone born in 93 is a pleasure to get the chance to experience for myself…. Continue Reading →

Invincible Force – Decomposed Sacramentum (Dark Descent)

Blackthrash from Chile, named after a Destruction song eh? Well I guess one thing guaranteed here is that South American intensity and integrity with the Chilean dark outlook. Yeah, Invincible Force, on their second full length certainly have that. ‘Doomed… Continue Reading →
