Grand Explosivos

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

Live At Montreux Jazz Festival '07
Once upon a time, live albums were major events, but the constant demand for "additional content" has rendered them largely redundant, except in very special cases. When it comes to playing live and destroying people's hearing, MOTÖRHEAD were the most special case of all, and so despite the existenc...June 15, 2023

War Against All
The problem with being black metal legends is that every single move is destined to be scrutinized by a devoted and often extremely picky fan base. In 2015, when Abbath left IMMORTAL, it wasn't entirely clear what kind of future the band had, but cynics had not accounted for the sheer determination...May 24, 2023
