Before we get started, I’d just like to take a moment to appreciate what an absolute belter of an album title we have here. All of the age-old stereotypes (that are generally unfair, but also not necessarily inaccurate) about how… Continue Reading →
“Causa Sui” is this French band’s debut album. It took four years to make it. Ahasver, as well as being the name of the band, is the mythical immortal man. The only way to translate this in any way to… Continue Reading →
It’s been 6 years since “Nihilism” rattled my teeth. That was the Dutch noiseniks second album and it gave me all the right feels in all those wrong places (you know the ones that hurt soooooo good!) The fact that it has taken them 6 years… Continue Reading →
As the band name and album title might suggest, here we’re heading into the realms of industrial, post-metal sludge and all that surrounds it. Although not a name previously known to me, Lament Cityscape have been around for a while,… Continue Reading →

If you’re bored and want to amuse yourself in a slightly different way, try the following: Type “The world’s most confusing graphs” into your search engine and have a good look at what comes up. It’s mind-boggling, I’m telling you…. Continue Reading →
This band seems to be into causes, among them environmentalism, anarchism and veganism. Formerly called Thränenkind, King Apathy’s new name makes “a statement about modern life on this planet”. They play in an amalgam of styles and I was informed… Continue Reading →
