Sunnata – Burning In Heaven, Melting On Earth (S/R)

Poland’s Sunnata deliver their fourth long player since their formation back in 2013. More than your straight-ahead doom band, they offer up a more rounded music experience that pulsates and immerses the listener. “Crows” opens the album with slightly psychedelic,… Continue Reading →

Sens Dep – Lush Desolation (S/R)

I was interested to read that the debut album by Tasmanian band Sens Dep, being the abbreviation of Sensory Deprivation, was recorded over four years in a tin shed, an alpine hunter’s hut, concrete inter-zones, and the Tasmanian wilderness. The… Continue Reading →

Reign / Rulum -The Occvlt (Repose Records)

This is nice. Getting sent an actual (turquoise) cassette to review. A four song each split between two black metal one-man projects about whom I know nothing. Oh, and the neat, nicely designed insert also includes lyrics. So, hats off… Continue Reading →

Helfir – The Journey (My Kingdom Music)

Decadent Noir music is the description of this third album by Helfir- the brainchild of Luca Mazzotta. To summarise what this appears to mean on first listen is a gentle brooding mix of electronica and rock – imagine a less dancy VnV Nation jamming… Continue Reading →

Crippled Black Phoenix – Ellengaest (Season Of Mist)

What to do, as a band, when you find yourself without a lead vocalist right before tracking should have started for your next release? Well, there are not many options. You can either despair, curse your bad luck and call… Continue Reading →

The Brothers Keg – Folklore, Myths, and Legends… (APF Records)

The normal way this music review malarkey works is that a band or label looking to promote a forthcoming release will send previews to assorted magazines and sites, confident in the strength of their product garnering positive write ups that… Continue Reading →

Polymoon – Caterpillars of Creation (Svart)

It’s always good to hear new bands coming forward, especially in this current era of no live gigs, and as such I was glad to have Polymoon and their debut album ‘Caterpillars of Creation’ sent my way to review, and… Continue Reading →

Psychlona – Venus Skytrip (Ripple Music)

Put on your bell bottoms, grab your lava lamp and jump in your shaggin’ wagon it’s time for another trip down nostalgia way. This time we are going via the desert road, which strangely is now winding around Yorkshire! Psychlona, since 2016 have been laying… Continue Reading →

Arabs In Aspic – Madness And Magic (Karisma)

Trondheim veterans Arabs In Aspic have been the standard bearers for the retro-rock and classic prog stylings in Norway for the past 15 or so years. With a big musical focus on making their sound and approach sound like an… Continue Reading →

Mazzeri – Mazzeri (S/R)

It’s widely accepted that the international language of rock and metal is English. That’s not to be jingoistic, and is every bit as likely to do with the origins of the sound in the USA as the UK, and the… Continue Reading →

Airbag – A Day at the Beach (Karisma Records)

This is the Norwegian prog trio’s fifth album. Lyrically, we’re told, “A Day at the Beach” is about a man “leaving his family behind into an unknown future. It’s the contrast between the desperate individual struggling to survive and people… Continue Reading →
