Harvest

It's official, Sweden's NAGLFAR is incapable of doing wrong, "Harvest" being the newest instance proving the point. The band has honed its sound somewhat since 2003's excellent "Sheol" by going for a more immediately impacting style of black/death metal, still unarguably ferocious, but with underlyi...

Get ready for some howling black metal from Greece! One-man band DODSFERD is the project of Wrath and "Fucking Your Creation" is sure to be mentioned as one of the year's best black metal albums.

Review

Harmonic Tremors

For the most part, just the fact that "Harmonic Tremors" is released on Hydra Head should give you at least an inkling that it is an album that contains flourishes of ISIS' patented ethereal-tinged and earth moving approach. That the project was named for the 50-foot effigy burned annually at the Fi...

Funeral For Yesterday

A 4 is high praise indeed, for a band signed too young, crassly marketed as Disney Channel nu-metal for tweener girls, and universally castigated for their inability to play, sing, or write songs. The fact remains, though, that Canadian all-girl troupe KITTIE are slowly getting competent, and on occ...

Ääniä Yössä

Rotting floorboards creak underfoot, a pungent smell in the air that's just shy of recognizable, and a constant chill that virtually pulses through the body. Images of the macabre and feelings of dread, it all combines to form the kind of vision only the truest Scandinavian black metal conjures. It...

Existentia

"Existentia" by Norway's TRAIL OF TEARS is easily one of the best gothic metal albums I've heard in some time, largely because of the combination of the heavy with the ethereal is so soundly written and performed. Granted, many would not call "Existentia" a purely gothic release due at least in part...
