Whorion – The Reign of the 7th Sector

Vinterd

 I’m not usually the biggest fan of symphonic metal with only a few bands of the genre out there that I know of that are actually good, but Whorion has gone with combining symphonic metal with technical and death metal to create something that I can really, really enjoy listening to. “The Reign of the 7th Sector” is an in-your-face album that is heavy and intense in several ways, but because I’m a lazy bastard I’m just going to say the vocals and the guitars because throughout the entire album they’re loud, they’re hardcore, and they will not give you … Continue reading Whorion – The Reign of the 7th Sector

Witch of the Waste – Made of Teeth

Vinterd

 When a band this unknown puts out an album as hardcore and insane as this it only shows that Witch of the Waste has the talent of veterans when it comes down to making an amazing album. “Made of Teeth” is what it sounds like – an absolutely raw album that is filled with brutality that is relentless in each and every song. From the very beginning of this EP it is clear that Witch of the Waste have come to make a point and that point is thaty’re a force to be reckoned with and has come to kick … Continue reading Witch of the Waste – Made of Teeth

The Bowery – Adapt

Vinterd

 This is most likely my favorite technical metal album (EP in this instance) for the year so far purely because of how awesome of a sound The Bowery has created for their upcoming EP “Adapt”. The vocals in this were pretty hardcore for what I’ve recently heard and they sound fantastic with the melody that I feel like many people can find very enjoyable especially for those people who like their melody but not in copious amounts, hopefully you know what I’m saying. The guitars had this heavy, destructive, and has a monstrous beat to it along with the drums … Continue reading The Bowery – Adapt

Jonestown – The Erebus and the Terror

Vinterd

 Alright. I need new pants. “The Erebus and the Terror” is an amazing album that while I personally would not place it in my top albums of the year (that list is already set just about) it is a damn good debut EP. If someone wanted me to show them a technical metal album that was heavy and brutal then I’d show them this because Jonestown fits that description perfectly. The vocals in this album have an amazing sound that are melodic at times and utterly hardcore at others but they both balance each other out so neither quite overpowers … Continue reading Jonestown – The Erebus and the Terror

Attic – Seasons

Vinterd

 Technical and melodic death metal? . . . take my money. Just take my goddamn money. I really really like it when death metal bands put a little bit more of that “something” into their music because it makes it much more interesting. Like Despite. I love Despite because their melodic death metal is really nice and it has that fluid brutality and rhythm that Attic also share in “Seasons” and that made this album extremely enjoyable for me. Each song started off differently and lead to something different every time and that gave the album a sort of longevity … Continue reading Attic – Seasons
