ALBUM REVIEW: ‘Valediction’ by GosT
In hindsight, it’s not all that difficult to see why synthwave didn’t take off among metal communities as much as it was pegged too. The progressiveness and abrasiveness of the […]
EP REVIEW: ‘Luna In The Sky Forever’ by Cvlt Ov The Svn
A lot about Cvlt Ov The Svn seems very familiar, right down to how meticulous the overall marketing seems to be. The invented tag of ‘occult murder pop’ is immediately […]
ALBUM REVIEW: ‘Birth Of Violence’ by Chelsea Wolfe
It’s strange to think of Chelsea Wolfe as the leader of a particular scene, but the number of subsequent artists rising through a similar brand of doom-metal tempered with gothic-rock […]

ALBUM REVIEW: ‘Disguise’ by Motionless In White
Given their track record, it’d be tempting to call Motionless In White a singles band, but even that isn’t strictly correct. They’ve never really had consistency in anything, even for […]

ALBUM REVIEW: ‘Anthropocene’ by Wilderness Hymnal
Atmosphere is imperative in the presentation of most, if not all music, but when it becomes the primary focus, it can become more difficult to create something truly compelling. It’s […]

THIS WEEK: Cane Hill drop their biggest curveball to date in their new single, as well as new tracks from Gerard Way, Bad Religion, Emarosa, Papa Roach, New Years Day, Within Temptation and more
ALBUM REVIEW: ‘None For One’ by Flat Earth
HIM might have been a divisive prospect within metal due to their reliance on softness and romanticism above real heaviness (the “love metal” tag didn’t come from nowhere), but that’s […]

THIS WEEK: The Menzingers follow up their exceptional last album, Gerard Way makes his long-awaited return for Halloween, and there’s new music from While She Sleeps, Architects, AFI, Can’t Swim, Deaf Havana, Glamour Of The Kill and more
