CYNIC – Carbon-based Anatomy (Season of Mist)

by Brian Krasman (Meat Mead Metal)
As a fan of most major sports, I’m pretty used to the comeback. Some of them go pretty well. Mario Lemieux every time he laced up the skates again. Brett Favre in his first year in Minnesota. Michael Jordan after his ill-advised run as a baseball player. Some of them [...]

EVILE – Five Serpent’s Teeth (Earache Rec.)

by Brian Krasman (Meat Mead Metal)
UK thrashers Evile have done a pretty good job getting their name and music out there, claiming tour support slots along titans such as Megadeth, Kreator, Overkill and Vader, getting their music onto Rock Band, something that surely exposed them to new fans, and becoming one of Earache’s most important [...]

WARBRINGER – Worlds Turned Asunder (Century Media)

by Brian Krasman (Meat Mead Metal)
Warbringer welcome their hellacious (third) new record “Worlds Torn Asunder.” The band is technically capable, and their sound is growing more mature with every release, proving they’re interested in being a quality unit and not just cashing in on a trend. They lean toward your tried-and-true thrash subjects of war, [...]

ESOTERIC – Paragon of Dissonance (Seasons of Mist)

by Brian Krasman (Meat Mead Metal)
I’ve never traveled to the U.K., and from the sound of some of their doom metal, I’m not I sure want to go. I feel like spending time there may make me too aware of my inner strife, and I get a healthy enough dose of that living where I [...]

WOHRT Records Label Feature

by Janet Willis
WOHRT is a small and true DIY label based in the U.S. and features small run (mostly) cassette and some vinyl runs that feature really unique and obscure acts that tend more toward the dismal, raw, primal, atmospheric deathlike whispering, heavy, and all in all “Mind bending and soul snatching”. When talking about [...]

MORBUS CHRON – Sleepers in the Rift (Pulverised Rec.)

by Ray Henry (www.mouthforwar.net)
When is Old School Death Metal not really Old School Death Metal? When it forgoes the traditional trappings of the new wave of OSDM. I mean, there’s no over-the-top buzz sawing often found with Entombed/Dismember aping. Sweden’s Morbus Chron eschew the latest trend in rehashing the bands of my youth while still [...]
