Rot Stink Rip

As another vintage year for death metal grinds inexorably forward, the absurd number of top-quality releases shows no sign of slowing. Even so, TOMBSTONER immediately stand out.

Superficially speaking, heavy music is a form of entertainment. But when one encounters an album like "SHAME", all normal parameters and expectations are obliterated, leaving only the harrowing screech of ignominy and the looming shadow of death. Although they look fairly affable in their promo pics...

The Dying Planet Weeps

Death metal fans are spoilt for choice these days. If you like to keep it filthy and old school, there are countless new bands decimating the target, and most of the old bands are still out there terrorizing the world too. If you prefer your death metal to sound vicious, technical and modern, there...

Omnivore

Even in the occasionally cerebral metal underground, there should always be room for silliness. AT THE PLATES are a death metal band in the same pun-loving, mischievous vein as CANNABIS CORPSE, but with songs about cooking, food and other dietary issues instead of weed. Ostensibly a solo project fo...

Reptilian Warlords

What an astonishing year this has been for death metal. While mainstream metal media outlets continue to froth over all manner of shiny, new things that have virtually fuck all to do with heavy metal on any meaningful level, the genre kick-started by POSSESSED and DEATH all those decades ago continu...

Repugnant

The brutal death metal scene often seems like an athletics tournament, as bands compete to be the fastest, the heaviest and the nastiest. With two absurdly extreme albums under their bloodstained belts already, NECROTICGOREBEAST belong in the upper echelons of the subgenre's current wave, and while...
