Xasraug – Unsympathetic Empyrean (Repose Records)

Well, you should certainly recognise the artwork adorning the cover of this but what is that indecipherable band logo? Xasraug, right, ok. Now what about Indricothere the musician, surely not a hornless rhinoceros making all this noise? So, behind that… Continue Reading →

God’s Bastard – Last Standing Village (I, Voidhanger)

God’s Bastard… Well, it sure doesn’t sound like the being in question was a planned child! And family relations must be pretty complicated… From the looks of things, anyway, it seems that a lot of bad feelings are being harbored…. Continue Reading →

In Human Form – Opening of the Eye by the Death of I (I, Voidhanger)

That’s one clunky album title but actually that’s Ok as this is one clunky album. Continuing on their everlasting quest to pick out the obscure and unfathomable, Italian label I, Voidhanger always manage to keep us on our toes and… Continue Reading →

Waldgeflüster – Meine Fesseln (Bindrune Recordings)

Waldgeflüster (‘Forest Whispers’ for non-fluent German speakers like myself who were worried about having their err… ‘waldges’ flustered), started out as being the solo black metal project of multi-instrumentalist Winterherz in 2005. This is his third full length album, featuring… Continue Reading →

Gorguts – Colored Sands (Season of Mist)

After literally years of waiting for this fifth Gorguts album to drop, here it is! Like last time, Season of Mist is the label of choice to convey their latest creation to the world. With some new faces in tow… Continue Reading →

Woe – Withdrawal (Candlelight Records)

This was my first experience of Woe, a USBM band who feature none other than former Krieg drummer Chris Grigg (and now also Shawn Eldridge of Funebrarum/Disma on drums, though it seems that he doesn’t feature on this, their third… Continue Reading →
