Artist: Ex Deo Album Title: The Thirteen Years Of Nero Label: Napalm Records Date of Release: 27 August 2021 After an absence of four years, it is with delight that I am able to sit and review a brand-new album from Ex Deo, ‘The Thirteen Years Of Nero’. For those unfamiliar, Ex Deo is the  Continue Reading »

Artist: Carcass Album Title: Torn Arteries Label: Nuclear Blast Records Date of Release: 17 September 2021 My last Carcass review was for the 2020 EP entitled ‘Despicable’. It was billed as an appetite-whetting release ahead of a new album, containing a small handful of tracks that were apparently written at the same time, but for  Continue Reading »

Artist: Eye Of Purgatory Album Title: The Lighthouse Label: Transcending Obscurity Records Date of Release: 18 June 2021 I’ve referred to some artists in the past as workaholics or obsessives that deliver more music than you might think possible in the given timeframe. However, none of these even come close to the Swedish guitarist, vocalist,  Continue Reading »

Artist: Alluvial Album Title: Sarcoma Label: Nuclear Blast Date of Release: 28 May 2021 Ever heard of Alluvial? Well I hadn’t, not before I was offered the opportunity to review this album. Based on some research, I realised that the reason for this might have been because the debut album from this American entity, ‘The  Continue Reading »

Artist: Obsolete Theory Album Title: Downfall Label: My Kingdom Music Date of Release: 21 May 2021 Billed as ‘post black metal’ by the record label and PR peeps, I approached the sophomore album from Obsolete Theory, ‘Downfall’, with caution. I have often found the post black metal tab to be a rather wide, generous descriptor  Continue Reading »

Artist: The Circle  Album Title: Metamorphosis  Label: Independent Release  Date of Release: 23 April 2021  Another of my magical evenings spent searching for new music has come up trumps yet again. Without trawling my inbox, Bandcamp, YouTube, my Haulix account and other corners of the Internet, I would never have come across The Circle. And had I not, my life would  Continue Reading »

Artist: Hideous Divinity Album Title: LV-426 Label: Century Media Records Date of Release: 23 April 2021 If ever there was a way for a band to ingratiate themselves with me, it would not be to create an EP based on the ‘Alien’ films. I watched these at university with mates who assured me that these  Continue Reading »

Artist: Evile Album Title: Hell Unleashed Label: Napalm Records Date of Release: 30 April 2021 Evile are a name synonymous with the UK thrash metal scene. Actually, scrub that. Since their inception in 2004, rising from the ashes of Metal Militia, they have delivered music that has made them well-known the world over, and rightly  Continue Reading »

Artist: Throne Album Title: Pestilent Dawn Label: Redefining Darkness Records Date of Release: 9 April 2021 If you are on the lookout for a pulverising half-hour of extreme death metal music, then you may wish to read on. If you’re into more fluffy forms of heavy metal, then you may instead wish to give this  Continue Reading »

Artist: Exanimis Album Title: Marionnettiste Label: Klonosphere Records Date of Release: 5 March 2021 Billed as an album that should find favour with fans of Fleshgod Apocalypse and Septic Flesh, it was a given that I would venture into the world of Exanimis and their debut full-length release ‘Marionnettiste’. After all, I do love a  Continue Reading »
