Meshuggah-Koloss

  The new album of the crazy avante-garde djent metal band. Koloss was released March 26th and is now obviously has been blasting through the speakers and headphones of every metal listener in the last couple weeks. In Koloss the band tried to go in a different direction to...

Brente Engler – Verden Med Ende (2009)

This is probably the most peculiar Black Metal act I’ve ever heard. I know there are a lot of crazy satanic Black Metal bands that readily fall under the category of “insane”, but this reaches a new level… and I love it. This is a one man(?) Black Metal...

Cor Scorpii – Monument + Attargangar

Although this album is a bit old, 2008, it’s still worth reviewing due to its obscurity. Cor Scorpii reminds me of Windir, and it should, because the Synth player and the Guitarist are from Windir. However, it’s a bit faster than Windir, almost reminds me of Dark Funeral during...

Periphery – Periphery (2010) Review

Got djent? on a more serious note, periphery is a progressive metal band from the USA. I honestly can’t classify them, they combine death metal, technical death metal, avant garde, prog rock, techno, hardcore, and some pop even, into their sound. This album starts slowly, in a quite generic...

Illdisposed – For Those Who Walk Behind Us (2009) Review

I’ve been listening to Illdisposed now for about a 3 years now, and when this album came out, it was exactly what I expected. This album could easily compete with their previous albums. It is pretty much your normal Illdisposed album with its heavy riffs and its brief periods...

KYPCK – Cherno (2008) Review

Here’s a question for you. What band would write doom metal about the Russian Revolution and the rise of Communism, use guitars that make hair metal look bland, name themselves after a sunken Russian submarine AND sing entirely in Russian?! Well that would be KYPCK playing (what I lovingly call...

Slayer – World Painted Blood (2009) Review

This is pretty much exactly what you think. 10 or so songs clocking in around 40 minutes (11 tracks, 39 minutes and change this go around), some slower paced tracks, one or two creepy psychotic murderer tracks and a couple short but sweet barn burners played at 900 miles...

The Devin Townsend Project – Addicted (2010) Review

That’s right, kiddies! The mad Canadian mastermind behind Strapping Young Lad is back again to deliver more unique metal to our longing ears. This is his second outing with the Devin Townsend Project after disbanding The Devin Townsend Band and Strapping Young Lad to pursue his personal musical goals,...

Whispered – Thousand Swords review

Very few times have I seen a folk band that hasn’t included the now generic viking theme… slaughtering people through the Scandinavian area, traveling on boats to hidden lands, surviving the cold, we’ve all heard it before. But here is something new… a samurai folk band. Whispered is a...

This is their new single and video from their upcoming 2010 album “Everything remains (As...
