It can be very easy for bands to pass you by and this Mexican Black Metal act is such a case for myself. Luciferian Rites formed back in 2006 and have since put out three full lengths and a mixture… Continue Reading →
Here we have the kings of monumental occult German doom apparently. Who crowned them or whether they seized the throne is something to consider but once we dip into their third album ‘Vama Marga’ a tantric term for the left… Continue Reading →
Toby Knapp could never be accused of lying idle. The American guitar maestro spreads his time across solo projects, Affliktor and his thrashy black metal project, Waxen just to mention a few. “Die Macht Von Hassen” is the sixth release… Continue Reading →
