Review: Mater Infecta – Di estetica, epifanie e tormenti (EP, 2024) | Black/death
It is with our greatest pleasure to present to you, dear listener (or hate-stalker), what is without a doubt another incredibly mindblowing release this year has to offer. Mater Infecta, the three-piece band coming from Italy, will most probably hook their sharp claws on you if you’re down for a proper black/death blend, with so […]
Review: Genital Shame – As Good as a Kiss (EP, 2024) | Avant-garde, experimental
We’re very happy to feature Genital Shame, Erin Dawson‘s one transwoman powerhouse for the second time in ABMN, after the full-length album Chronic Illness Wish at the beginning of 2024 which caught up our attention and introduced her experimental and very unique take on black metal to a wider audience. Erin obviously doesn’t like resting on her laurels […]
Review: Gun Girl – Vengeant Siege of Unholy Divinity (Full album, 2024) | Bestial black metal
Y’all we are struggling on how to open this up. Why are we stating that? Well mostly because musical genius, Eleanor Harper, has created something so raw, so bombastic, so fucking pissed the fuck off, that it’s rather hard to figure out how to open up about her latest project, Gun Girl. How does one […]
Review: Wretched Blessing – “Anathematic” (Official video, 2024) | Black/death/hardcore
A few weeks ago we introduced you all to a debuting project bringing a high-quality mix of extreme and punk-related genres, the US-based duo Wretched Blessing and its first EP. Well, we have them back today with an official video for the sludge-driven song – extracted from this very release – “Anathematic”! Devised, created and […]
Review: Qlaglaga – Fetidized (Full album, 2024) | Blackend cybergrind
Folks, it’s been a very long time since we’ve had something utterly strange, fucked up and weird, but today this streak ends, thankfully. We are excited to premiere for you today, Qlaglaga, which means nothing, and their new EP, Fetidized. Fetidized is a strange cacophony blend of blackened chiptune goodness. Starting with what feels like […]
Review: Astral Lore – Astral Lore (Full album, 2024) | Black metal
3 songs, 50 minutes, on a full album, is maybe all you need to know about Astral Lore‘s new self-titled release. You can expect it from here, we publish black metal, it’s very long songs, hence it’s an excellent atmospheric black metal album. While it’s their first full-length album, Astral Lore already has some solid […]
Review: Hexen House – Retributiones Maleficarum Mallei (Full album, 2024) | Black metal, death metal
Seeing Hexen House‘s photo which includes corpsepaint, candelabras, iron vambraces and so on you might be tempted to think it’s another band with a very traditional take on black metal and politics, but quickly you are confronted with messages that convey “total fucking war on impotent fascist scum” and “torch the values of western civilization“. […]
Review: Desert Heretic – Infernalis (Full album, 2024) | Black metal
Desert Heretic has returned! We had the honour of releasing this project’s first EP in early 2022. Now they are back with their first full-length, Infernalis“, with even more of what we loved in their first release – that is, very violent and serious black metal with a lot of melodies, traces of thrash metal […]
