Ministry – Hopiumforthemasses (Nuclear Blast)

Yeehaw rednecks beware, cantankerous moral crusader Al Jourgensen and his bunch of rebellious wranglers are back and nobody is safe from a tongue-lashing. Mind you after 16 albums and a storied career of over four decades we wouldn’t really accept… Continue Reading →

3TEETH – EndEx (Century Media)

With 3 solid albums and support slots with the likes of Tool, Ministry and Rammstein, L.A. industrialists 3TEETH like many were slowed down by the great plague. Without that who knows, they could be headlining bigger stadiums themselves but had… Continue Reading →

Black Void – Antithesis (Nuclear Blast)

Hi my name is Matt and I am an idiot. “That is evident from your ramblings on this site Matt but why so this particular time?”.  Well gentle reader, when I asked for “Antithesis” the new album from White Void… Continue Reading →

Hocico – Hyper Violent (Out Of Line)

Mexican industrial duo (indusduo? ) have been releasing music together since 1993 – hell of a long time for these two cousins Erk Aicrag and Racso Agroyam to be around each other pounding out cyberdog style sounds. The guys have been pretty prolific over the years and this, album 13… Continue Reading →

Ministry – Moral Hygiene (Nuclear Blast)

Warning, rant coming! I don’t know about you but one thing that has been really galling over the last couple of pandemic clad years is the constant bilious propaganda being bombarded out by those in a privileged position, musicians in… Continue Reading →

A Pale Horse Named Death – Infernum in Terra (Long Branch)

Talk about being doomsday prophets. APHND released last album ‘When The World Becomes Undone’ in 2019 and shortly after, that’s exactly what happened. If you thought they were not the happiest band in the world before this, it’s hardly the… Continue Reading →

Parrilla – Femme Fatale: Ensnared By Venus I (S/R)

Parrilla, hailing from the Southend on the Sea, UK, have been described as a rising force in the UK underground. Having cut their teeth round Essex, sharing the stage with the likes of Goat Monsoon and participating in Bloodstock’s Metal… Continue Reading →

The Joy Thieves – American Parasite (Armalyte)

Been expectantly awaiting this, finally after three highly rated EP’s The Joy Thieves get round to their debut album. Since forming or should that be spawning into the multi-limbed industro-wrecking machine they are, this lot have certainly kept us on… Continue Reading →

The Monolith Deathcult – V3: Vernedering – Connect the Goddamn Dots (Human Detonator Records)

The Monolith Deathcult’s formula is one that would miserably fail in the wrong hands. A sonic carpet bomb of death metal with cinematic samples, waves of electronic pulses, orchestral sweeps and industrial structures… and even a sense of humour. On… Continue Reading →

Borgne – Temps Morts (LADLO Productions)

There is no such thing as “dead time” for Bornyhake and Borgne and if you are thinking this came quickly, it did indeed. Only just over a year since last album Y was released here is another sprawling and labyrinthine… Continue Reading →

Crown – The End Of All Things (Pelagic Records)

Since this is my first encounter with the French band Crown, I checked the Encyclopaedia Metallum for a bit of background data. Usually, the metal archives are a good, reliable and updated source of information. This time, however, the genre… Continue Reading →

Ascension Of The Watchers – Apocrypha (Dissonance Productions)

‘Apocrypha’ opens with a smack to the face and a stripped back single key keyboard riff and then the band launches into the parade. This may not be Fear Factory, but it is loaded with similarities to Burton C Bells… Continue Reading →
