Obsidian Refractions
CRUCIAMENTUM is one of death metal's most revered, underground, post-2000 bands for "those in the know." Eight years since its proper debut full-length, "Charnel Passages", CRUCIAMENTUM return with what is sure to be one of the year's best death metal albums, its sophomore effort, "Obsidian Refracti...November 20, 2023

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...November 14, 2023

Mosaic
With a sound that makes DRAGONFORCE seem a bit gloomy, THEOCRACY have always put the necessary effort into spreading their power metal gospel. The Atlanta, Georgia quintet are extremely highly rated among the genre's diehard fraternity, and the recent addition of lead guitarist Taylor Washington (PA...October 12, 2023

Live At ProgPower XXI
One of countless bands whose plans were brutally scuppered when the global plague took hold three years ago, SEVEN SPIRES are still the most exciting thing happening in power and symphonic metal today. And now that the world is back to some kind of (intermittently horrifying) normality, this band's...March 15, 2023

Ashes Lie Still
Firmly at the forefront of UK death metal since 2009's "Surpassing the Boundaries of Human Suffering" debut, INGESTED have still endured a long, hard slog to get the attention they deserve. In recent times, the band's sheer superiority over the competition has been impossible to miss. "The Level Abo...November 1, 2022

Netherheaven
A gleaming model of consistency, REVOCATION have spent the last 20 years establishing themselves as one of the most ferociously ripping metal bands of the modern era. Rooted in death metal and thrash, but by no means terminally tethered to either, lethal virtuoso David Davidson's crew stand apart th...September 7, 2022

Firescorched
Progressive death metal is enjoying a particularly rich period in its history right now, with countless great new bands doing strange and wonderful things with brutal music. It is also an excellent time to give SADIST some long due recognition. Italy's masters of deeply weird extremity clearly take...May 20, 2022

Agenda 21
For those who worship at the altar of shiny, virtuoso progressive metal, ZERO HOUR will be more than familiar. For the uninitiated, the Californians — led by brothers Jasun and Troy Tipton (guitar and bass respectively) — began in 1993 and spent the next 15 years building up an imperious catalogue o...May 11, 2022

Devil's Bell
It may be because they come from Bergen, Norway, rather than anywhere near the Sunset Strip, but AUDREY HORNE have never quite hit the heights that their music seems to demand. Even back on early albums like "Le Fol" (2017) and the Norwegians' superb self-titled record (2010),they were writing ridi...April 20, 2022

Nucleosynthesis
According to Wikipedia, "a molecule or ion is called chiral if it cannot be superposed on its mirror image by any combination of rotations, translations, and some conformational changes. This geometric property is called chirality." So that's cleared that up. These are strange times, and strange tim...July 21, 2021
