Walking Corpse – Our Hands – Your Throat (Transcending Obscurity)

It’s a cold, grim and rainy day. What I need to perk things right up is some Swedish Grindcore with a dirty dose of death metal added.  Lurching into life in 2017 this is the third release and second full length effort from the… Continue Reading →

Rotten Sound – Apocalypse (Season Of Mist)

Ha, I actually have ‘Under Pressure’ the first album by Finns Rotten Sound on CD and just played it and ‘Apocalypse’ back to back. Seriously it sounds like it is about half the speed of the new one, a crusty,… Continue Reading →

Morbid Evils – Supernaturals (Transcending Obscurity)

It’s five years since I gave “Deceases” a 9 out of 10 review on this very site. In Covid Years that is no time at all. So here are the crushing Finns back once again to drop the heavy on the world. In case you don’t know… Continue Reading →

Age Of Woe – Envenom (Lifeforce Records)

This is a third album by this death metal outfit comprising members that hail from Sweden, Germany and Finland, for a release teeming with creativity. After a quiet intro section on opener ‘Inferno’ the album utilises a fine fade-in technique… Continue Reading →

Undergang – Aldrig I Livet (Dark Descent / Me Saco Un Ojo Records)

I adore the fact that so many OSDM bands are cropping up nowadays, it feels like being a part of the 90s scene, which as someone born in 93 is a pleasure to get the chance to experience for myself…. Continue Reading →

Ruinas – Ikonoklasta (Spikerot Records)

Of the three bands with this moniker I found, which means Ruins as you probably deciphered, two of them are from Argentina and are polar opposites in style with one being of heavy/power metal and the other sludge whereas this… Continue Reading →

Straight Hate – Black Sheep Parade (Deformeathing Productions)

This Polish grind act’s second album has been out since September 2019 but has only just hit Ave Noctum nearly a year later which is a shame because it is a truly gargantuan grindcore release. Since then the band has… Continue Reading →

Nerve Saw – Peril (Testimony Records)

For a debut album, Finnish band Nerve Saw (great name), seem to be existing an almost monistic existence from a virtual world perspective with very little in terms of a social media presence. It’s almost as if the band are… Continue Reading →

Rotten Sound – Suffer to Abuse (Season Of Mist)

I first became aware of Rotten Sound in 2000 when Still Psycho was released. I hadn’t listened to Grindcore since I bought From Enslavement to Obliteration when it came out. I was in for a blast – in many ways.  The… Continue Reading →

Morbid Evils – Deceases (Svart)

Last time I heard Keijo Niinimaa he was assaulting (in a pleasurable way) my ears with Rotten Sound. IF I am honest they were the band that opened the door back up to Grind for me, a door that had… Continue Reading →

Rotten Sound – Abuse to Suffer (Season of Mist)

At what stage does a band become an “institution”? I mean that word in the sense that a band becomes semi-legendary, and a real cornerstone in the genre or sub-genre that they inhabit? These Finns have been about since 1993,… Continue Reading →

Morbid Evils – In Hate With The Burning World (Svart)

This new outfit is helmed by vocalist Keijo Niinimaa who those in the know may well recognise as being chief mouthpiece of Rotten Sound. If that has you anticipating some grinding harshness and tracks that bomb along in the blink… Continue Reading →
