Albums Of The Year 2023

As we prepare to bid farewell, whether fondly or not, to another year and look back on the albums released in 2023, one thing is evident; creativity is once again through the roof and the music has not slowed down… Continue Reading →

Void – Jadjow (Brucia Records)

With roots stemming back to the late 90’s Void have always been a bit of a curious beast. Founding member Matt Jarman has through the group’s career had not so much as one foot in the Scandi-weird scene but has… Continue Reading →

Wyrgher – Panspermic Warlords (I, Voidhanger)

Do Panspermic Warlords disappear in spunk? No that would frankly be silly and Panspermia actually refers to the theory of life being carried through space by the likes of meteors and comets. That goes for nasty things as well such… Continue Reading →

Dodheimsgard – Black Medium Current (Peaceville)

It comes as no surprise that Norse pioneers and innovators Dodheimsgard have taken eight years between this and last album ‘A Umbra Omega.’ Even without certain disasters affecting the whole world, they would still have no doubt taken their sweet… Continue Reading →

Tilintetgjort – In Death I Shall Arise (Dark Essence)

Tilintetgjort are a new Norwegian black metal band from Oslo and this here is their debut album. A few brief moments of listening online before getting the album gave the impression that it was, potentially…er…nuts. So ‘Kvikksolvdrommer’ beginning with a… Continue Reading →

Various Artists – Dark Side Of The Sacred Star (Peaceville)

Before the Internet, label samplers used to be part of the life’s blood when it came to discovering new artists and music. Some of them introduced us to a roster of bands that clicked and has had us following things… Continue Reading →

Deliverance – Neon Chaos In A Junk Sick Dawn (LADLO)

Although no duelling banjos here there are plenty of aspects making French band Deliverance a very interesting addition to LADLO’s roster. Its their 3rd album and first time I have encountered them. They made an entrance with EP ‘Doomsday, Please’… Continue Reading →

Déhà – Decadanse (LADLO)

It seems somewhat negligent on our behalf not having seemed to have covered a Déhà release in the past. Since 2018 this Belgian whose real name is Olmo Lipani has well over 40 releases to his name, the majority of… Continue Reading →

OPHE – Somnium Nocte Mendaciis (My Kingdom Music)

When you start mentioning the likes of Dødheimsgard, Blut aus Nord, Anorexia Nervosa and Manes as clues, this album can only have one direction. For sure, OPHE won’t stand for Office of Public Health Education, that is unless we’re being… Continue Reading →

Vaina – Futue Te Ipsum – Angel With Many Faces (Aesthetic Death)

And once again you never know what you’ll get with an Aesthetic Death release but it will be different. And this album by the Finnish Vaina is certainly that. Amusingly their entry on Metal Archives just says black metal. Um…. Continue Reading →

Dold Vorde Ens Navn – Mørkere (Prophecy)

Seems like there are rumblings in the Dodheimsgard camp suggesting new material is recorded and on the way soon. As for members of the group it’s not like they have not been busy as it is. For a start we… Continue Reading →

If Nothing Is – S/T (Dark Essence Records)

If a band’s looking for a selling point, this is it “This is not elevator music”. That’s their words. They go on: “Trying to perform menial tasks while listening to this album will turn your brain into scrambled eggs”. This… Continue Reading →
