Marching into the scene from the US underground comes Eagle’s Nest’s debut assault titled, Purification. This album is rich with atmosphere and hard hitting riffs of volkish pride. This debut is coming off the back of their well received demo “A Legacy Reborn… Forever Written in Blood” which presented the band as much more raw…
There was once a time when the atmosphere of a certain song or album would unnerve me. Creating a looming anxious dread that sweeps over you much like a horror movie would.

From the haunted ridges of Appalachia to the gator-choked gutters of the Gulf, Stumptail barrels down I-65 like a rust-eaten hearse on fire. Somewhere past the boiled-peanut stands and bottomless humidity, they stumble into the Floridian Poseidon, a swamp-god with a mullet, a beer gut, and a trident stolen from a pawn shop. Sonder down…
Délirant returns with their second album, Thoughteater. They provide no safety here, just wave after wave of oppressive black metal psychedelia, where speed doesn’t offer escape but intensifies the descent. Délirant channels the void with surgical precision, luring the listener into a trance that devours thought, leaving only static, suffocating silence. With a creeping opening…

From deep within the black jungles of Indonesia emerges Falsus Evangelium. An experimental black metal entity invoking Enochian rites, fevered dissonance, and a suffocating occult atmosphere that carves its own altar within the underground. The album starts hard, whipping you into dissonant distorted riffs and well timed drums hitting a solid groove that isn’t so…
Hailing from the Spanish underground, raw black metal outfit Hässlig brings us their first full length release, Apex Predator. This is a hard hitting, well made album that was made with precision and care. The mysterious figure head behind the band, who simply goes by D.B. is no stranger to the underground scene. Leading the…
