Brujeria – Esto Es (Nuclear Blast)

When people share those memes and jokes about being broke and wanting to become a drug-dealer so their money troubles will magically vanish, we all chuckle and share in that sentiment to a slight degree, after all, who wouldn’t want… Continue Reading →

Lock Up – The Dregs of Hades (Listenable)

Last time Lock Up released an album (2017) it was one of my highly rated and recommended releases of that year. A devastatingly intense delivery of high quality grindcore which had everything required to guarantee chaos and carnage in any… Continue Reading →

Criminal – Sacrificio (Metal Blade)

Chilean Thrash/Death titans Criminal are back once again with their ninth studio album and first release since 2016’s ‘Fear Itself’. Seemingly continuing to head back to their roots, incorporating more of the Latin and South American musical traits and styles… Continue Reading →

Borstal – At Her Majesty’s Pleasure (4 Family Records)

The word Borstal will conjure up bleak and terrible images for those of a certain age. Visons of sexual assault in a potting shed and bloody violence coupled with a young Ray Winstone proclaiming himself “the Daddy” are etched in the minds of… Continue Reading →

Napalm Death – Throes Of Joy In The Jaws Of Defeatism (Century Media)

As per usual, much of the next nine hundred or so words will unfortunately contain very little of what you would consider critiquing but more of a meandering rummage through the dusty caves of what remains of my memory, reminiscing… Continue Reading →

Venomous Concept – Politics Versus the Erection (Season Of Mist)

When is a supergroup not a supergroup? I say it transcends that epithet when they have released their fourth killer album of grind infused hardcore punk! For the uninitiated Venomous Concept is the brainchild of Shane Embury and Kevin Sharp… Continue Reading →

Medium – S/T (Transcending Obscurity)

Although the label is based in India head honcho Kunal seems to spend no short amount of time trawling the globe and looking for the best of death and doom to release to a wider audience. Medium from Argentina are… Continue Reading →

Uivo Bastardo – Clepsydra (Ethereal Sound Works)

Uivo Bastardo are a brand-new band from Lisbon with members of Kronos And Concealment in their ranks. Clepsydra is an ancient time-measuring device worked by a flow of water. Put them together and what have you got? Well the answer… Continue Reading →

Lock-Up – Demonization (Listenable)

The grindcore supergroup of intense proportions is back once again and they aren’t fucking around with this release. This of course is perfect considering their current touring schedule which includes Napalm Death, Power Trip and Brujeria!!! With Shane Embury and… Continue Reading →

Power Trip – Nightmare Logic (Southern Lord)

Hailing out of Dallas, Texas, Power Trip are a pretty intense thrash metal group. With a very prominent early 80’s thrash sound mixed with some crossover thrash influences and some touches of grindcore and powerviolence in terms of the rhythmic… Continue Reading →

Brujeria – Pocho Aztlan (Nuclear Blast)

16 years on from their second LP ‘Brujerizmo’ the masked, machete wielding, satanic Mexican bandidos are back and on top form with ‘Pocho Aztlan’. I’ve always been a fan of Brujeria, regardless of who was behind the masks. I remember… Continue Reading →

Ancient – Back To The Land Of The Dead (Soulseller)

I haven’t listened to Ancient in years and the last album I had was ‘Night Visit’. I was going to say I’ve probably got some catching up to do now, but nope, this is the first thing Zel’s done in… Continue Reading →
