LISTEN TO ANIMIST NOW AND DOWNLOAD THIS FREE DEBUT EP
Animist is from Nyack, NY. As far as I know, the east coast is not known for neopaganism but, hey, we got the awesome Windfaerer from Jersey and Leif Ericson never made it farther South than Newfoundland. Their eccentric mix of various extreme … Read the rest of this entry →
MORS PRINCIPIUM EST: AND DEATH SAID LIVE
I’ve always wanted to start a real seminal and important death metal band where we rarely do any actual work and spend much of the time walking around in towels, hitting on all the new female cadets at the academy. … Read the rest of this entry →
NEW TUNNAGE FROM DEEDS OF FLESH, SHADED ENMITY
I’ve been slapped silly by the revelation that the reason Christmas with the family feels like an epic hangover is because I’m usually hungover. Like many of you, I’m sitting again in this my work cage, recovering from the forced revelry of … Read the rest of this entry →
ARSIS ARE LOST IN A HUANTED HOUSE I THINK
At least that’s my take on this video. I dunno I wasn’t really paying attention. More concerned with DAT SOLO. Na’mean? ShareTweetFacebookLinkedInTumblrStumbleDiggDelicious

SOLILOQUIUM WORKING ON NEW MATERIAL, KICKASS FIRST DEMO STILL FREE
This Swedish band plays a neat and engaging form of melodic doom metal anchored by deep apocalyptic growls and articulate riffing. In the roughest of analogies, their approach lies somewhere between Incantation, Katatonia and Candlemass. Much of the time is spent listening to the weighty shifts in deep powr … Read the rest of this entry →
RADICAL NEW ARSIS EP IS FREE AND RADICAL
The New Radicals are lulzy 90s wuss rock band and free radicals are bad for your healthz. I couldn’t work these into the title as I am currently so sleep deprived that I’m seeing spiders all over the place. Now, then. Despite … Read the rest of this entry →
TUESDAY TIME MACHINE: AMORPHIS – ELEGY (1996)
Of all the melodically inclined bands who have split their fanbases over the years, Amorphis stands as the most comfortable in their own skin, as well as anyone else’s. Their stylistic shifts not only kept the band’s identity intact but … Read the rest of this entry →
NEUZ: NEW CARCASS ALBUM AND NEW KYUSS ALBUM (SORT OF)
We don’t do news but this has me worked up to an unhealthy degree. The good news is Michael Amott is not involved in the Carcass album. The bad news is that Nick Oliver IS involved in the new post-Kyuss … Read the rest of this entry →

SKALMOLD: BORN LOKA
Though most Americans might think the new Skalmold album is a nod to Pitbull –what with the sexy faux-Latin flavor of the album title– it is in fact a hearty, unpretentious trek through the gruffer side of viking metal. The only … Read the rest of this entry →
TUESDAY TIME MACHINE: DISMEMBER – LIKE AN EVER FLOWING STREAM (1991)
I’ve long sought an excuse to feature Dismember. However, being an 80s baby who simply feigns battle-scarred wisdom on a weekly basis, I just am not exactly sure to what extent they were actually influential. By the time they were on their second album, the fan favorite Indecent and Obscene, … Read the rest of this entry →

RANDOM KICK ASS DEATH METAL THAT PEOPLE SEND US: OPHIDIAN I, SOLACE AND STABLE, WARCLOUDS

LOOK AT DIS BLOODSHOT DAWN VIDEO!

CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED BAND MORS PRINCIPIUM EST GETS NEW RECORD DEALS
Good news this be. It may be because of their tongue twisting name but Mors Principum Est (Latin for “death is only the beginning”) is often overlooked. Thankfully, they have just signed a new record deal with Truth Inc throughout … Read the rest of this entry →
An Advance Stream Of The Titans Eve Record
We all know that innovation is not exactly thrash metal’s strong suit in the modern era. Cool merch, wild album art, high energy shows, sure but its often berrated for not breaking any new ground. Vancouver, Canada’s Titan’s Eve are … Read the rest of this entry →
