Good. Lord. Listen, 2020 has been a very good year for music in general, post- included. That goes doubly so when you take Covid into account. However, I don't think any of us were mentally prepared for the... Read More...

Resin Tomb – Resin Tomb

Calder Dougherty
July 27, 2020

Australia is absolutely killing it right now. The past few years, I have lost count of how many times I've asked myself, “Huh, I wonder where they're from?” about an amazing new band I've discovered just to se... Read More...

Fliege – The Invisible Seam

Scott Murphy
January 28, 2020
Reviews
Every year, I grow more impressed by the breadth of new ideas introduced into the world of black metal. I've long held the belief that the "blackened" prefix manifests in more unique ways than any other metal ... Read More...

Botanist – Ecosystem

Scott Murphy

Trent Bos
September 12, 2019
Reviews

There's been so many good albums this year it's easy for some to slip through the cracks, even ones that you've already listened to. When I first heard The Chemical Mind's Beneath the Shadow It Casts, admitted... Read More...

Glassing – Spotted Horse

Trent Bos
May 7, 2019
Reviews
I've found a tendency of late to gravitate towards music that doesn’t easily fit into one genre, or sub-genre even. These niche sub-genres like blackgaze that I originally have fawned over, I've found to have ... Read More...
