This is the end of all things. All the light in the universe is gone and all that remains is darkness. The end of man is upon us. This is the final and by far the most grand of all … Continue reading Hybrid Nightmares – The Fourth Age
At first after listening to the first track, “Under Attack”, I have to admit I was a little apprehensive about Skindred whom I’ve never even heard about before a few days ago. It had too much of a rap metal … Continue reading Skindred – Volume
Born of Osiris has always been one of those bands to me that some of my friends love to death and whenever I’m in the car with them or just hanging out I will hear a little of Born of … Continue reading Born of Osiris – Soul Sphere
I remember hearing We Rise the Tides for the first time with their last EP, “Death Walk”, being the best deathcore I’ve ever heard by miles and ended being one of my favorite albums of 2014 easily. But it is with actual sadness for me to learn that they have decided to break up and pursue other personal projects (nothing wrong with that at all!), but they have decided to give us fans a farewell present with the single “Legacy”. This song is the most mature and impressive deathcore they’ve done out of doing 2 very nice EP’s, and shows … Continue reading We Rise the Tides – Legacy (single)

When it comes to death metal, most of it has been done before by someone else and many others a multitude of times. But sometimes a band comes along and takes that style and creates just enough of a unique twist to … Continue reading Islay – The Angels’ Share
This is by far one of the most violent and impressive thrash albums that I’ve heard all year. Nuclear have so far been busting out an album albums every year since 2006, and now they’re back with their newest full length of chaotic thrash metal. “Formula for Anarchy” is exactly what it sounds like: an amalgamation of old school thrash metal, new school thrash, a tinge of old school death metal, and some hardcore-punk for good measure that tears down every sort of barrier it could possibly have with its destructive sound being just what any and all thrash fans need … Continue reading Nuclear – Formula for Anarchy
Of all the many genres that there are in the world of metal, and that includes multitudes of hybrid genres like blackened death to name one of many. But one that I never once even thought to dream up is … Continue reading Draconian – Sovran
