Hushed and Grim
Headier moments of psychedelics and progressive-metal noodling have always been baked into MASTODON's sound, going back to the more overtly doomier days that birthed their 2002 debut, "Remission". The last decade of the band's career has seen the Atlanta, GA quartet wade further into those more adve...October 25, 2021

Måsstaden Under Vatten
Eight years have passed since VILDHJARTA released a new record (the superb "Thousands Of Evils" EP),and the heavy music landscape has changed sufficiently that the Swedes' long-awaited full-length sounds every bit as contrary and otherworldly as its predecessor ("Måsstaden") did in 2011, despite th...October 12, 2021

Charnel Noir
The sounds and style of the '80s post-punk and gothic movements have been plundered remorselessly in recent times.

But unlike many of their perfectly great, retro-gloo...October 2, 2021

Senjutsu
IMO a legitimate, valid case can be made for the assertion that IRON MAIDEN is the greatest heavy metal band of all time. Six years have passed since the release of the English band's last album, 2015's "The Book of Souls", and the legendary act returns now to close the longest gap between albums wi...August 30, 2021

Primordial Arcana
Pacific Northwest black metal collective WOLVES IN THE THRONE ROOM have spent the last two decades firmly establishing themselves as a musical force isolated from the majority of scene politics and accepted imagery.

Forked Tongues
London's CRAVEN IDOL has been sharpening its blade for over 15 years, starting off as a duo that unleashed a couple of well-received demos prior to an EP and a couple of full-length albums. The unit has been far from prolific, clearly focusing upon quality rather than quantity. Making progress in re...July 19, 2021

De Doorn
The apocalyptic sprawl of AMENRA's sludge-laden compositions is unremarkable to the world of heavy music.
