My Enemies Look And Sound Like Me
We know where we stand with WEREWOLVES at this point. Their agenda has been one of seething misanthropy, bilious hatred and wild, bug-eyed disdain from the start. On 2020's furious debut "The Dead Are Screaming", they sang fondly of "Beating Those We Despise". A year later, sophomore opus "What A Ti...August 9, 2023

Amongst The Low & Empty
The days when deathcore was the runt of the litter are long gone. Right now, the scene is fizzing with creativity and passion, and SIGNS OF THE SWARM are among its brightest leading lights. They are an unpredictable bunch, too. After three albums of destructive, subgenre-defining brutality, the Pitt...July 26, 2023

Conflagrations
There is a lot to admire in bands that only emerge from the shadow when they have something to say. One of the most inventive and characterful bands to operate under the progressive death metal banner (whether they like it or not),  RANNOCH have only released two albums and one EP in the last de...July 19, 2023

Position | Momentum
If 2020's "The Eye Is The First Circle" was a concise act of scabby-lipped catharsis, "Position | Momentum" is what happens when the waves of vitriol never stop. CALLIGRAM continue to make some of the most vicious, black metal-adjacent music around, and when "Sul Dolore" erupts, it's instantly appar...July 14, 2023

Guns For Hire
Released at the tail-end of 2022, TAILGUNNER's debut EP "Crashdive" was a thrilling first statement from the now hotly tipped Brits. While a large portion of contemporary metal media tries to convince us that heavy music started in 1991, traditional, melodic metal is impervious to passing trends and...July 12, 2023

Monuments To Absence
The steady evolution of black metal has produced plenty of fascinating music in recent times, much of it within the realms of so-called post-BM: an inventive but occasionally underpowered metallic extremity, dominated by atmospheric layering and melodic haziness. UK stalwarts FEN have consistently b...July 6, 2023

VII
When WILL HAVEN released their debut album "El Diablo" back in 1997, it felt like the start of a brutal revolution. Ostensibly purveyors of sludge metal, via noise rock, the Sacramento crew had a unique sound from the start. Nobody lurched, slammed and eviscerated with quite the same bug-eyed zeal,...July 5, 2023

Prophets Of Demise
Their name clearly implies a degree of aggression and plenty of darkness, but WITHERING SCORN are a much more melodic and traditional beast than that. Brothers Shawn and Glenn Drover, arguably best known for particularly fruitful stints as members of MEGADETH, join forces here with bassist Joe DiBia...July 4, 2023
