Atrocious Abnormality – Formed in Disgust (Comatose Music)

It’s quite refreshing when a band in any genre bucks the trends set by their peers. With most extreme death metal bands nowadays trying to outdo one another in terms of who can sound more slamtastic than the rest, Atrocious… Continue Reading →

Calcined – Tormenting Attractions (Great Dane Records)

For those that don’t know Calcined is scientific in origin and basically means the remains of something left behind after it has been completely and utterly burned, which is different to ash, as ash can still be burned given the… Continue Reading →

Incinerate – Eradicating Terrestrial Species (Comatose Music)

Seven years on from the bands second album – ‘08s ‘Anatomize’ – Incinerate are back, filling our festering lug’oles with their brutal death metal. Now, seven years might not be a long time between records…..if you’re fucking Rush, but for… Continue Reading →

Feared – Synder (S/R)

I am not sure what rock I’ve been living under for the past five years or so but this Swedish outfit has released five albums already and this is now their sixth. In the bands ranks is Kevin Talley (drums)… Continue Reading →

Spawned From Hate – Accelerated Butchery (S/R)

It’s relatively safe to say that any band heralding from the heavy metal capital of the world (Birmingham obviously), can be approached with an air of sunny optimism. This air of optimism is not wasted on Brutal Death lads Spawned… Continue Reading →

Recueil Morbide – Morbid Collection (Great Dane)

France. Not the first place to that leaps to mind when you think of brutal music. Not sure why though….. The French gave us some amazingly brutal movies like ‘Inside’, ‘Frontier(s)’, ‘Vivide’ & of course ‘Martyrs’….. but musically all that… Continue Reading →

Xibalba – Tierra Y Libertad (Southern Lord)

Xibalba are not a band I’d heard of before receiving this, their third album, for review. Apparently splicing hardcore with death metal, ‘Tierra Y Libertad’ sees the Californians in their “most threatening form yet”. On top of assertions like this,… Continue Reading →

Decimation – Reign Of Ungodly Creation (Comatose Music)

Sometimes this reviewing lark can be a bit dull, another brutal tech death band I thought. This’ll be a load of impossible to remember blasting / pig squealing tripe I thought. A few listens later though and I realised brutal… Continue Reading →

Interview – Revel In Flesh

Revel In Flesh are no strangers to Ave Noctum and most recently they have been a part of three split 7 inch records issued earlier this year. When it comes to punishing old school death metal, then Germany’s Revel In… Continue Reading →

Re-Armed – Rottendam (Eternal Sound Records)

Who said that heavy metal has to be downtrodden and miserable? Well, no-one did, but these guys from Finland with the Swedish sound manage to bring cheeriness to a totally dark and extreme experience. From the vocalist’s “Welcome to Rottendam”… Continue Reading →

Banisher – Scarcity (Unquiet Records)

Banisher are a technical death metal band hailing from Rzeszow in Poland. They’ve been kicking around since 2005 but only released their debut album, ‘Slaughterhouse’, in 2010. This is a very dynamic, relentless album, faster & more intense than their… Continue Reading →

Rogash – Supremacy Undone (War Anthem)

No, this isn’t an abbreviated form of famous, aromatic lamb curry but rather a new death metal band from Germany. With a press release mentioning influences such as Spawn Of Possession, Suffocation and Dismember (all with a modern twist) I… Continue Reading →
