Artist: Apparition Album Title: Disgraced Emanations From A Tranquil State Label: Profound Lore Date of Release: 22 March 2024 It’s official: I can’t keep up! There’s just too much new music being released at the moment for one man to cope with. It’s not a bad thing, and I am definitely not moaning. But, when  Continue Reading »

Artist: Persefone Album Title: Lingua Ignota: Part I Label: Napalm Records Date of Release: 2 February 2024 Receiving one score in the high 90s could be put down to a bit of luck, the stars aligning to produce a special record. But to achieve two of these scores on the bounce means that there’s something  Continue Reading »

Artist: Cattle Decapitation Album Title: Terrasite Label: Metal Blade Records Date of Release: 12 May 2023 What the hell is up with that cover artwork? For the most part it is great, but the face of that creature is…well…odd. I know what Cattle Decapitation are trying to do, or at least I think I do.  Continue Reading »

Artist: Pressure Points Album Title: The Island Label: Art Gates Records Date of Release: 17 March 2023 Way back in 2015, when my website was in its relative infancy, and so were my two children, I heard a band called Pressure Points for the very first time. What I heard, was their second album, entitled  Continue Reading »

Artist: Allegaeon Album Title: Damnum Label: Metal Blade Records Date of Release:  25 February 2022 I could have sworn that I’d reviewed Allegaeon in the past. I was certain of it. And yet, upon further investigation, I am grossly mistaken. Thank heavens I didn’t lay a wager on it, that’s all I can say. It’s  Continue Reading »

Artist: Persefone Album Title: Metanoia Label: Napalm Records Date of Release: 4 February 2022 I desperately wanted to bring this review to fruition much earlier than this but the more I listened to ‘Metanoia’, one of the most highly anticipated metal releases of 2022, the more time I felt I needed in order to formulate  Continue Reading »

Artist: Wilderun Album Title: Epigone Label: Century Media Records Date of Release: 7 January 2022 I’m going to level with you. I am possibly the only fan of heavy music on Earth who didn’t enjoy ‘Veil Of Imagination’, the third full-length release from Wilderun. It featured highly within many ‘album of the year’ lists in  Continue Reading »

Artist: Dessiderium Album Title: Aria Label: The Artisan Era Date of Release: 10 December 2021 Just when I thought I’d completed all my reviews for 2021, I’m presented with another promo that I simply could not ignore. The album is entitled ‘Aria’, and it’s the fourth album from the mind and hands of US musician,  Continue Reading »

Artist: Be’lakor Album Title: Coherence Label: Napalm Records Date of Release:  29 October 2021 I’ve been very slow on the uptake of Be’lakor, the Australian melodic death metal quintet, because ‘Coherence’ is their fifth album, but only the second one that I have heard and reviewed. I hear lots of great things about their first  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 »
