Ashen – Ritual of Ash (Bitter Loss Records)

It’s not all that often that I get to listen to Australian Extreme bands, but it turns out that antipodean four piece hail from Perth, and incredibly have only been together since 2020. I say incredibly, because this is a… Continue Reading →

Slaughterday – Tyrants Of Doom (F.D.A. Records)

Abscession – Rot of Ages (Transcending Obscurity)

I’ve been having a discussion with my son. Stay with me on this, it will have relevance! He’s been playing the “Shadow of War” game on the Xbox. “I like it – I mean, it’s got loads of flaws, and… Continue Reading →

Tardus Mortem – Armageddon (Emanzipation Productions)

One of the biggest draws to Metal for me is excess, I would have thrived in the early days of Grindcore searching for the most hideous bands I could find. In fact, it’s something me and my best friend would… Continue Reading →

Humiliation – Parallel Chains of Command (Brutal Art Records)

I’m writing this from Malaysia, Humiliation’s country of origin. It’s always interested me why particular genres take hold in different countries, but there’s no doubt that death metal appeals to Malaysian devoted band of extreme metal followers. There are many… Continue Reading →

Witch Vomit – Buried Deep In A Bottomless Grave (20 Buck Spin)

Burial Remains – Trinity Of Deception (Transcending Obscurity)

Seven tracks, twenty five minutes, old school death metal…… what’s not to like? Well…. Not much actually as this is a total blast and another win for Transcending Obscurity that has an absolutely stellar roster of bands. Burial Remains formed… Continue Reading →

Novarupta – Disillusioned Fire (Suicide Records)

An interesting fact that I picked up while checking out the background to this album was that Novarupta’s instigator contributed to Terra Tenebrosa’s excellent album “The Reverses”. As some people decide to take up running or learn a language for… Continue Reading →

Crawl – Rituals (Transcending Obscurity Records)

Do you like pro-wrestling? I do, lots of metal fans do as it happens. Then again, some of my mates call it “pants fighting” and suggest I just like watching oiled up muscular men in lycra sit on each other…. Continue Reading →
