Naut – Hunt (Season of Mist)

Bristol’s Naut release their debut LP under the Season Of Mist label after a short series of single and EP releases that have done enough to garner the attention of the underground music world. Enveloped in post-punk and swathed in… Continue Reading →

Shaam Larein – Sticka en kniv i världen (Svart Records)

Here Shaam Larein go round sticking knives into the world, which is how “Sticka en kniv i världen” translates. It’s a world of mystery, certainly stylistically as this “Goth-tinged doom rock band” promises nocturnal post-punk atmospheres and avant-garde metal. Spooky… Continue Reading →

West Wickhams – Magenta (Golden Believers Records)

I almost fell through a time-warp opening the envelope and pulling out this EP. After sniffing to see if it smelled of patchouli it was time to work out that it was a new and second release from Isle Of… Continue Reading →

Rome – Hegemonikon (Trisol)

There are few musicians who are as committed to the European Idea as Jerome Reuter. Through his music, under the band name Rome, he has been promoting Europe, both geographically, as a naturally cohesive entity, and philosophically, as a place… Continue Reading →

Blacklist – Afterworld (Profound Lore)

Although the cover to the album at hand looks a lot like that to Kall’s last LP Brand, and although one could easily jump to conclusions and expect similar sounds and attitudes, it’s not DSBM that’s hiding beneath this sad… Continue Reading →

Sang Froid – EP (Black Gods)

Valborg – Der Alte (Lupus Lounge)

This German trio have quite the work ethic, releasing their eighth album here since the first ‘Glorification Of Pain’ back in 2009. Although I only discovered them relatively recently, tackling just three of their releases, it’s obvious that they are… Continue Reading →

Hours Of Worship – The Cold That You Left (Iron Bonehead)

Type the band name into a search engine and you are more likely to be invited to church than anything else. Listen to their music though and you may find yourself in need of some redemption. As I guessed, this… Continue Reading →

Grave Lines – Communion (New Heavy Sounds)

Now on their third album, London’s Grave Lines do away with the idea that a band have to pin themselves to a particular sound. Having built their popularity on the eclectic pool of influences they draw from as a collective,… Continue Reading →

Wailin Storms – The Silver Snake Unfolds (Gilead Media)

Described as shapeshifting, atmospheric noise rock, “The Silver Snake Unfolds” is Wailin Storms’s second album following their 2020 debut “Rattle”. Do I suspect that Wailin Storms have been listening to Black Sabbath? Well it seemed like it as I listened… Continue Reading →

Then Comes Silence – Hunger (Nexilis / Schubert Music)

“What is the point of writing songs about the apocalypse and the inescapable future that’s drenched in darkness, when the media already do it better? Instead, with our new album HUNGER, we give you the light,” says Alex Svenson, band… Continue Reading →
