Vanir – Epitome (Mighty Music)

Vanir have been about for a lot longer than you might think. The Danish Viking metal merchants actually produced their first album back in 1991, though I got into them back in around 2016 with the “Aldar Ruk” record. It’s… Continue Reading →

Solbrud – IIII (Vendetta Records)

Danish quartet Solbrud are not the Four Horses of the Apocalypse. However, IIII certainly sounds like it was composed as a soundtrack to it. A conspicuous number for the band, four is omnipresent in this release: four members, four vinyl… Continue Reading →

Manticora – Mycelium (Mighty Music)

Danish Metallers Manticora do love a concept album. Two linked together if they can manage it, which of course they did with the “Black Circus” duo fifteen years ago, and then more recently with the “To Kill To Live To… Continue Reading →

Panzerchrist – All Witches Shall Burn (Emanzipation)

After a decade of silence Danish destroyers Panzerchrist re-convened last year with their founder Panzergeneral putting together an almost completely new tank crew. This was probably a bit of a gamble although guitarist Frederik O’Carroll was returning for a second… Continue Reading →

Lipid – The Perfect Killing Machine (Great Dane Records)

The family who play together slay together. Well that could well be the case here as I note that three members of this Perfect Killing Machine share the same surname. Active firstly as Naracus since 95 and then as Lipid,… Continue Reading →

Temple Of Scorn – Funeral Altar Epiphanies (Transcending Obscurity Records)

The name Temple Of Scorn may be new to you, as it was to me, but the band members within certainly aren’t as all the guys play in a raft of other more notable acts such as Horned Almighty, Bæst… Continue Reading →

Sylvatica – Cadaver Synod (Mighty Music)

I’ve been dwelling on this album for too long. Don’t sue me, it’s a difficult one. Laying perfectly in the complex vortex separating experimentation and over-experimentation, creativity and ‘overdoing it’, Cadaver Synod is a curious lesson in both how to… Continue Reading →

Vansind – Mørket (Mighty Music)

Although Danish Viking/Folk Metal band Vansind have been active since 2019, this is actually their debut full-length offering. Whilst the core of the band’s founding line-up remains (current Panzerchrist/Detest drummer Danni Jelsgaard, Mindmare vocalist Joachim Asmussen, bagpipe/whistle player Rikke Klint… Continue Reading →

Tongues – Formløse Stjerner (I, Voidhanger Records)

I’ll admit I was very curious about this Danish bands second full length after giving the opening track a listen on the label’s Bandcamp page. I was suitably impressed and opted to try and cover it and luckily I was… Continue Reading →

Panzerchrist – Last Of A Kind (Emanzipation Productions)

2023 marks out a 30 year anniversary for Denmark’s Panzerchrist since forming in 1993 under the auspices of Michael Enevoldsen, releasing seven albums plus a handful of demos and EP that started in 1995. In 2013, after the release of… Continue Reading →

Sturmtiger – Transcendent Warfare (Demented Omen Of Masochism)

I think sometimes as fans we all kinda forget how hard it is for some bands to actually get music out – the world constantly intervening with irritating necessities like food, a place to sleep, stuff like that getting in… Continue Reading →

Demolizer – Post Necrotic Human (Mighty Music)

The second album by this Danish quartet since their formation 5 years ago out of the ashes of Radtskaffen by guitarist/vocalist Ben Radtleff and bassist Bjørn Hjortgaard being joined by drummer Max Petrén Bach Hansen and guitarist Aria Mobbarez. Their… Continue Reading →
