Riding Through the Cosmic Void

Posted on April 2, 2021 by deshift00

COSMIC REAPER Hailing from Charlotte, North Carolina, come ‘Cosmic Reaper’, delivering us their first devastatingly powerful self titled full length album.

I mean it was worth a shot, right?

  Liturgy – Origin of the Alimonies Within the black metal scene there is a stark divide between those who create music that’s called ‘post-black metal’ or ‘blackgaze’ which is a sort of combination of shoegaze style atmosphere and hazy guitar riffs and the dark and cold nature of black metal into one. Some bands…

Surviving in the Underground

Posted on March 27, 2021 by deshift00

Grab – The Inevitable Filth of Mankind (2021) Black metal has always been known for its Nordic heritage. Many of the greatest bands have hailed from Scandinavia, but if there is one scene that is fast on the rise in the modern age, it’d be the Greek black metal scene. While, I may not be…

Stuck in the Dream World

Posted on March 27, 2021 by deshift00

Shōen — Plant æ (2020) Its not very often that an album like this really captivates me. I’ve always found pure ambient albums rather boring at times, just droning noises and overdubbed productions. But this albums is a little different. According to the artist, Shōen, was heavily inspired by the music he heard in his…

Revenant Marquis – Youth Ribbons If you look back on some of my other reviews you’ll see that I’m rather a big fan of the ‘lo-fi’ style of recording when it comes to music and especially when it comes to black metal. The gritty, foggy, and harsh noisy sound of the production style can do…

 Conqueror – War Cult Supremacy The founding member of the Ross Bay Cult, a black/death metal label from Canada, Ryan Förster, being incredibly inspired by the works of fellow Vancouver locals Blasphemy, came together with fellow black metal cultist, J.Read, to form a band that was short lived, but made a splashing impact at the…

Blasphemous Utterings from the Dark

Posted on March 18, 2021 by deshift00

 Blasphemy- Blood Upon the Altar & Fallen Angel of Doom In each genre of music, there’s always some sort of turning point that takes it to the next level. Some would say The Beatles made pop music what it is today, Black Sabbath being the forefathers of heavy metal, and N.W.A giving rap that gangster…
