71 Tonman (Poland) – War Is Peace Peace Is Slavery – (Metallic Effect CD)
As the name suggests, 71TonMan are purveyors of earth‐shatteringly heavy music and their brand of doom/sludge metal furthermore is acerbic and crust‐scraping. Bands in this style rarely have this scathing, face‐melting sound and it’s strangely addictive, particularly the combination of huge, stomping riffs and absolutely vile vocals delivered in an almost grindcore manner ...
71tonman – Of End Times – 8-Panel Glow-In-The-Dark Effect Digipak
Towering sludge/doom giants 71TonMan follow up last year’s EP with a monumentally heavy, gravity-altering album that adds immeasurable weight and finality to your life. Packing on several more tons of catastrophic heaviness, they trudge across the ever-flattening landscape for extended periods of time with exceptional focus and control, even breaking ...
Abaddon Incarnate -The Wretched Sermon (8-Panel Glow-In-The-Dark Effect Digipak)
Having been active since the ’90s, Irish grindcore/death metal legends have only perfected their sound over the years, creating a quintessential blend of both the styles. They’ve come a long way from their explosive, highly caustic album ‘Nadir’ that put them on the map and have since then imbibed more ...
Abscession – Rot Of Ages – CDD
Atavistic HM-2 driven Swedish style death metal is given a sense of refined German death metal structuring and tempered with shimmering melodies, making Abscession’s new album ‘Rot of Ages’ the epitome of immaculately balanced old school death metal music. The music maintains a brisk and punchy crust/punk derived tempo throughout, deftly punctuating ...
Abyssus – Death Revival (8-Panel Glow-In-The-Dark) – CDD
Starting off as a band playing a much faster, thrashier and crustier version of Obituary, Greek death metal band Abyssus have come a long way.

Arche – Transitions (8-Panel Glow-In-The-Dark Digipak) – CDD
From the country that gave us some of the earliest and best known doom metal bands such as Thergothon, Skepticism and Shape of Despair, we have the unheralded gem of a band in Arche who are giving their own masterful touches to that sound. Their music is an immaculate expression of ethereal, ...
As The World Dies – Agonist (8-Panel Glow-In-The-Dark) – CDD
Formed by members of Memoriam and Pemphigoid, As The World Dies are among UK’s most promising new bands. Gritty and spiteful, the music rampages mercilessly hearkening back to the era of Bolt Thrower, Grave and the like, even though As The World Dies have their own approach to it all ...
Ashen Horde – Antimony – CDD
What started off as a one-man band, Ashen Horde now boast of a lineup that has the vocalist of Inferi and Equipoise, the drummer of Norse and the bassist of Abhoria. They’ve expanded upon their sound like never before and it now showcases a terrific and fairly unique blend of black and ...

Cutterred Flesh – Sharing Is Caring – CDD
Defying all expectations, Czech brutal death metal band Cutterred Flesh give birth to an album that can be regarded as an anomaly in the style, an aberration for a band sounding this heavy and brutal. Their constant variations, shocking mood changes, and tempo fluctuations belie the impossibly wide girth and ponderous gait ...

Most bands mellow with age but nearly two decades since their inception, UK’s death metal stalwarts De Profundis have only evolved to become more and more extreme with each album, their latest probably being their most intense, aggressive and challenging release till date.
