World Without God
Another round of kudos to Relapse is in order for unearthing more classic late '80s/early '90s death metal, packaging it up nicely, and releasing it to a new generation of extremists. After last year's excellent NIRVANA 2002 package ("Recordings 89-91") comes a reissue of CONVULSE's 1992 release "Wo...February 23, 2010

Einsamkeit
In this age of acts viewing the traditional as boring and, well, just too damn traditional, it has become a common occurrence that when a CD arrives from a German black metal band, one can be fairly certain that convention will be thrown right through the sliding glass door that serves as the entran...February 23, 2010

Demon Metal
Good goat almighty, the South Americans have struck again! This time it is an elite Chilean unit known as PERVERSOR that has left a path of death and destruction after an 18-minute carpet-bombing and napalm run, code-named "Demon Metal". Your mission?

II: The Reign of Darkness
Much better! I had no anticipatory thoughts about ANNOTATIONS OF AN AUTOPSY's "II: The Reign of Darkness", as a result of my impression of the British death metal band after reviewing "Before the Throne of Infection".

Until we are Outnumbered
In listening to THE KANDIDATE's (previously known as THE DOWNARD CANDIDATE) "Until we are Outnumbered", the opinion I have formed is similar to the one I had in a review of HATESPHERE's "Serpent Smiles and Killer Eyes". The breakneck and modern — and somewhat distinctively Danish — thrash metal of T...January 23, 2010

Recordings 89-91
If you have read Daniel Ekeroth's outstanding book "Swedish Death Metal", then you know that NIRVANA 2002 was given high praise by the author as one of the very first bands — along with the likes of NIHILIST — that dove head first into the creation of the now renowned sound.

A hot meal of meat and potatoes is fine until it has been served every single day of the week. "Paradise Disintegrates" by Australia's NEW BLOOD is 18 minutes of workmanlike brutal death with a fair amount of arrangement variety that the completist may enjoy, but even then one would be hard pressed...January 23, 2010
