Towards the Megalith

These days a reference to INCANTATION's early lordliness is almost insufficient in describing a style of old school death metal that is dank, dark, dirty, and doomed since bands like DEAD CONGREGATION, ENCOFFINATION, and NECROVATION — are you picking up on the whole "tion" theme here? — have not onl...

Generation Wild

It is totally derivative of a potpourri of '80s glam rock and hair metal bands, including the glammed up look of the band members themselves; the album clearly one for fans of that definitively love-hate era. And it would seem that's exactly what Sweden's CRASHDIET intended with new album "Generatio...
