Karloff – Revered by Death (Blackened Ghoul Punk)
Certain genres refuse to extricate themselves from the fetters of decades ago. I guess it’s a one part nostalgia, one part fear of the new. I’ve seen this phenomenon in hardcore, rockabilly, and especially horror punk. The last example is notorious for this, as doowop vampires have been around for awhile, stemming from the […]

Putridarium – Natvm Ad Mortem (Pig Vomit Dirty Deathdoom)
Yeah I haven’t gotten any good 7″ cuts in awhile, and for our next scuzz blast for the new year, we have Germany’s Putridarium dealing out a two-track wonder called Natvm Ad Mortem. Adding to the pantheon of deathdoom I’ve experienced over the past few years, this particular effort builds upon the putrid foundation […]

Illusive Key – Consume Us (Atmospheric Ritualistic Black Metal)
Illusive Key, a German-Belgian coven who’ve just recently allowed their eyes to glow from far back in the darkness, are the type of band that prefers a bit of mystery. It’s clear, having listened to this thoroughly, that there’s skill to be found here, meaning they likely have experience outside of this project. And […]

Morbyda – Under the Spell (Witch Metal Inferno)
Damn I love this shit. For some reason, though, I didn’t at first, but this is nowhere close to a “grower,” I should have got my shit together from day one son. That’s because Morbyda are the MFing gawds of this kind of metal folks. Do you hear me folks? Is it speed metal? […]

Eisenkult – Die Hölle ist hier (Blackened Fairy Tale Metal)
Is differentiation the true key to success? Yes, says Germany’s Eisenkult, who come from the Black Forest (not actually, but let’s pretend) bringing dark fables through riff and screech. There’s a particular form of black metal in their homeland that dips into the schadenfreude that imparts patterns onto the Germanic mind down to roof […]

Naked Whipper (Blackened Anti-Christian Perversion Metal)
Uh oh, the perverse beasts are back. I can’t remember the last time I heard of Germany’s Naked Whipper, but here we are again. They were around before this site was even birthed, bringing their lusty-demon type of perverted blasphemy years before I even knew their name and years before anyone was riding that […]

Hexenbrett – Dritte Beschwörung: Dem Teufel eine Tochter (Blackened Rock Past Puberty)
Finally! I’ve been waiting for mystery duo Hexenbrett to get their shit together. They definitely had the mystique down. No one really knows where they’re from (most likely Germany, but possibly the United States), but putting this into their particular brand of blackened rock has been largely a miss since their first EP in […]

Deathrite – Flames Licking Fever (Eerie Death Punk)
Nice. Needed something to mix things up around here! Plus, I received so much garbage these past months it’s been tough whittling it down to anything good, let alone something that rawks as much as Flames Licking Fever, the latest full-length from Germany’s Deathrite (capitalized or no?). There are a number of acts out […]

Häxenzijrkell – Portal (Atmospheric Dungeon Metal)
It’s been four years since me and my good friends (in spirit) in Häxenzijrkell traded words. Last time around I tossed out a pleasant 4.5/5 for Die Nachseite, referring to it as “Halloween black metal.” This does not apply this time around and I need to be more serious. Showing a surprising ability to […]

Mechanic Tyrants – St. Diemen Riots (Dystopian Speed Metal PS Rush Sucks)
I was about to not even listen to this. The art drew me in with that killer layout, but then I read the label’s assertion that Germany’s Mechanic Tyrants is like Rush and I wanted to puke all over myself. I’m not the only one who’s said, it Rush is extremely overrated. They were […]
