Ingested – Ashes Lie Still (Metal Blade)

Manchester or Slamchester as it is known in slam death circles saw the arrival of Ingested in about 2006 and since then they have churned out a number of fine death metal albums and in some respects spearheaded the whole… Continue Reading →

Wasting The Genesis – Prey (S/R)

Four tracks of blended deathcore and death metal from Spanish act Wasting The Genesis who already have an EP and full length available. There is nothing here that makes you think WTG are different to a wealth of other deathcore… Continue Reading →

Whitechapel – Kin (Metal Blade)

Deathcore has reared its head again and boy, is this one vicious and aggressive head to raise. Tennessee’s own Whitechapel are ready to batter and bludgeon with this, their eighth full length effort, ‘Kin’. Whitechapel are somewhat uber giants in… Continue Reading →

Empyreal Vault – Judgement (Great Dane Records)

There is something about the album artwork by Samuel Nelson that fixed me about this sophomore by this French band. I’ve stared at it and analysed a number of times and I’ve even got it as my computer desktop image,… Continue Reading →

Osiah – Loss (Unique Leader)

Deathcore is perhaps the most up and down genre for me. I have loved it, I used to be a massive Whitechapel fan (I still like them, just not as much). I also love bands like Annotations Of An Autopsy,… Continue Reading →

Cambion – Conflagrate The Celestial Refugium (Lavadome Productions)

Beneath The Massacre – Fearmonger (Century Media)

Deathcore, or diet Death Metal as I like to call it, has been a mark upon the Metal world since its inception. My feelings on the genre have gone from love to hate to somewhere in the middle over the… Continue Reading →

Despised Icon – Purgatory (Nuclear Blast)

This is a strange one and I tell you why. It’s strange because there is much mumbling, tutting, sideways looks, eye rolling, slagging off, looking down at etc. etc. of the genre known as Deathcore. What is Deathcore may you… Continue Reading →

Fit For An Autopsy – The Sea Of Tragic Beasts (Nuclear Blast)

Despite a revolving door of vocalists, New Jersey’s Fit For An Autopsy, have been around since 2008 and have managed to generate a lot of positive ‘buzz’ (I think that’s the lexicon the youth of today use?) during their tenure… Continue Reading →

Carnifex – World War X (Nuclear Blast)

I have a strange relationship with Deathcore, a lot of bands from this genre merely came across to me as cheap Death Metal, and in fact most still do. Nevertheless Whitechapel appeared to me as something else, and for a… Continue Reading →

Whitechapel – The Valley (Based On True Events) (Metal Blade Records)

I was surprised to see that it has been three years since this US deathcore outfits last album, “Mark Of The Blade”, an album I particularly enjoyed due to its evolution into realms not touched on prior albums, such as… Continue Reading →
