Artist: Krisiun Album Title: Scourge of the Enthroned Label: Century Media Records Date of Release: 7 September 2018 There are few bands that can boast a line-up that has remained unchanged for their entire career. However, aside from a brief, ill-fated experiment as a quartet, Krisiun have always been a trio. What’s more, the three  Continue Reading »

Artist: Unanimated Album Title: Annihilation EP Label: Century Media Records Date of Release: August 2018 A rare quicker, shorter review here, as I am faced with a new EP, the first new material from Unanimated since 2009. Long heralded as one of the originators of the classic Swedish melodic death/black metal sound, I am pleased  Continue Reading »

Artist: At The Gates Album Title: To Drink From The Night Itself Label: Century Media Records Date Of Release: 18 May 2018 To even be reviewing a new album from At The Gates is something for which I am supremely grateful. One of the true originators of a whole new subgenre of metal, and the  Continue Reading »

Artist: Skeletal Remains Album Title: Devouring Mortality Label: Century Media Records Date Of Release: 13 April 2018 There is literally no room for polite introductions here, because Skeletal Remains are on a mission; a mission to bludgeon us into bloody submission. As a result, from second number one of ‘Ripperology’, it is all-out death metal  Continue Reading »

Artist: Barren Earth Album Title: A Complex of Cages Label: Century Media Records Date Of Release: 30 March 2018 Barren Earth have come an awfully long way since their debut, ‘Curse of the Red River’, back in 2010. Then, theirs was an extreme death/doom metal blueprint tinged with progressive elements and a modicum of melody.  Continue Reading »

Artist: Watain Album Title: Trident Wolf Eclipse Label: Century Media Records Date Of Release: 5 January 2018 I listen to an awful lot of music and have done for well over two decades now. Over the years, I have found myself mentally sorting bands into various categories in a way of staying afloat and making  Continue Reading »

Artist: Arch Enemy Album Title: Will To Power Label: Century Media Records Date Of Release: 8 September 2017 Have I ever mentioned that I love early Arch Enemy? I’m talking ‘Burning Bridges’ and before. This, as far as I am concerned, was the pinnacle of their career, with ‘Stigmata’ remaining my personal favourite. I loved  Continue Reading »

Artist: The Haunted Album Title: Strength In Numbers Label: Century Media Records Date of Release: 25 August 2017 The Haunted have to be one of the most consistent bands within the extreme metal genre. I have been a fan since the very beginning, when in 1997, At The Gates folded and bandmates Adrian Erlandsson (drums)  Continue Reading »

Artist: The Lurking Fear Album Title: Out of the Voiceless Grave Label: Century Media Records Date Of Release: 11 August 2017 I could be wrong but I’m pretty certain that Tomas Lindberg has never been involved in any band, project or record that has been anything less than solid. In fact, the vast majority of  Continue Reading »

Well, while I’m on a roll, I may as well continue. And while so many bands are also on a roll of late it seems, I owe it to them to keep the news flowing. If you’ve missed any of my other posts in this series, links to all of them can be found at  Continue Reading »
