Album Reviews

Death metal supergroup Vastum’s fifth studio album “Inward to Gethsemane” cements the cavernous brutality of the band, out via 20 Buck Spin tomorrow, November 10th.

Fourth chapter, “The Enduring Spirit” of Toronto-based death metal outfit Tomb Mold offers a spectacular mix of technical/progressive elements in such a visceral and unforgotten performance. Out now digitally via 20 Buck Spin and physically next month!

Lunar Chamber is one of the most unique bands in the subgenre of progressive technical death metal. Their debut EP “Shambhallic Vibrations” is such a mind-boggling record full of sophisticated riffing and a bizarre ethereal atmosphere, released via 20 Buck Spin.

The third album from the Oregon-Portland based-death metal quartet Torture Rack, “Primeval Onslaught”, includes many highlight tracks. No frills here, just fucking primitive and putrid old school death metal from start to finish, Torture Rack will leave you all satisfied. Released via 20 Buck Spin!

Sophomore release “Evenfall of the Apocalypse” of the U.S. death metal act Ascended Dead is fiercely brutal. The riffing and the top-notch drumming is brought to the maximum, which makes the album full of intensity and evil bestiality. This is an intense and brutal death metal record recommended for fans of Pissgrave, Of Feather and Bone, and Lvcifyre, released via 20 Buck Spin!

Following suit its inaugural instalment two years ago, Australian masters of melancholy Mournful Congregation completed its funereal diptych with ‘The Exuviae of the Gods Part II’ . Out via Osmose Records and 20 Buck Spin.

VoidCeremony’s sophomore ‘Threads of Unknowing’ delivers a visceral piece of technical death metal showcasing the unrivaled mastery and jazzy approach for which the band became known. Suffice to say that this is one of the best albums in death metal this year. Out via 20 Buck Spin.

The sophomore ‘Death Age’ from the Los-Angeles death metal squad Kommand delivers a cavernous slab of brutality in the vein of bands like Bolt Thrower, the album is recommended for the connoisseurs of raw death metal. Out via 20 Buck Spin.

Majesties’ debut album “Vast Reaches Unclaimed” conveys the perfect sound of the Gothenburg melodic death metal, a stepping stone for the U.S. trio that has found its niche and inspiration from bands like In Flames, Gates of Ishtar and The Moaning. This is a highly recommended album for fans of melodic death metal, released via 20 Buck Spin.

Ulthar has managed to amass organic and blackened death metal aggression, taking the listener into cosmic loops of the outer realms of space. The two songs offer plenty of tremolo picked riffs, solid technicality and uncanny avant-garde. Out on 20 Buck Spin.
