Hivemind – The Edict Of The Elohim (Aesthetic Death)

As Voivod once stated in a futuristic voice “We are connected” and although musically very different, that is what we have here, an epic album taking to the outer limits and providing a cautionary tale of the near future for… Continue Reading →

Pan/Scan – A Far Distant Corner Of Nothing Special (Cineploit)

Cineploit, the label run by ex-Pungent Stencher Alex has a mission statement of primarily releasing Cinematic Music and Italian Genre Film. Naturally this involves some fantastic and at times strange material, which although united by a common sensibility delivers some… Continue Reading →

Dim Lights – Starspire (Avantgarde / Sidereal)

This is the work of one V-Khaoz, known to me primarily through the truly excellent Druaden Forest which is why I leapt on it in the review basket. It is, however not his usual black metal meets dungeon synth or… Continue Reading →

Blood Incantation – Timewave Zero (Century Media)

I’ve most likely touched on it many times before but music for sleep is very important to me. I love putting on Post-Rock, Ambient and even Noise to sleep to, it soothes my soul and means that I can get… Continue Reading →

Fluisteraars – Gegrepen door de Geest der Zielsontluiking (Eisenwald)

I could have sworn I had tackled Dutch ‘whisperers’ Fluisteraars in the past review wise but realised I had been getting them muddled up with countrymen Fluisterwoud who actually split up in 2009. An easy mistake I guess but one… Continue Reading →

The Oracle – Hypogeum (Repose Records)

Seven years after formation, Polish instrumental alternative rock band Beyond the Event Horizon are now releasing their second album with an ep “FAR” between the two in 2018. A clue about their influence lies in the closing track here “Love… Continue Reading →

Giöbia – Plasmatic Idol (Heavy Psych Sounds)

Whilst very much the underground label so beloved of the scribes of Ave Noctum, and by extension your good selves reading this, Heavy Psych Sounds is definitely building up a solid and interesting catalogue of artists, to the extent that… Continue Reading →

Interview – Bloody Hammers

They’re creepy and they’re kooky mysterious and spooky. Nope let’s not go down that route even if their world is a little on the strange and horrific side. Bloody Hammers consist of Anders Magna and Devallia who pass their time… Continue Reading →

Chester Hawkins – Natural Causes (Intangible Arts)

This is the strangest thing to turn up in a while here and was kindly sent in on vinyl and described as “a bit of soundtracky electric noises for possible review.” Composer Chester Hawkins is from Washington DC and has… Continue Reading →

Clouds Taste Satanic – Dawn Of The Satanic Age (Kinda Like Music)

For three straight years now, Brooklyn based instrumental doomsters Clouds Taste Satanic have been producing an album a year, the quality of which has just continued to improve. 2014 saw ‘To Sleep Beyond The Stars’ with its single epic track… Continue Reading →

Dissvarth – Between The Light And The Moon (I, Voidhanger)

Dissvarth’s starry-eyed debut is the latest from Australia’s extreme metal creative force Dis Pater  also known for Midnight Odyssey. In his other projects, Pater manages to blend his unique mix of black metal, funeral doom and keyboard-soaked ideas into boundless… Continue Reading →
