Album Reviews

Dark Funeral’s newest opus “We Are the Apokalypse” is undeniably one of the best albums in the band’s discography as it ultimately forges new methods of fusing catchy elements and rhetoric harmonies.

Helfró bares the influences to the Swedish black metal, but the duo has certainly brought uncompromising aggression to their latest offering.

Berzerker Legion is the epitome of what modern death metal music is all about. The album is a concoction of epic melodies, powerful grooves, and pure intensity.

“Tyranni” is a brutal and ferocious soundtrack for the apocalypse the band has returned in a short span of time to deliver a hellish record.

Black metal outfit Asagraum delivers a majestic and chilling follow-up to their debut release.

Nordjevel’s Necrogenesis is a remarkable album that focuses on the musical ability of these North men who have unleashed one of the best black metal albums in 2019.

The first release from Malakhim is a dark and ominous black metal opus that will re-shape the style of the Swedish black metal in near future.

Sulphur Sovereign is mastered by sharp riffs and it’s sacrilegiously brutal and extremely evil.

These Swedish death metal heroes (Entombed A.D., Dark Funeral, Six Feet Under, etc.) will make your head bang to songs about Jack The Ripper and other gruesome things.
