Review: Τέλμα/Telma – Ανθρωποβόρος (full length, 2024) | Doom Metal
When it comes to debut albums that come out smashing seemingly out of nowhere, you won’t easily find a stronger one in recent years than Telma‘s Ανθρωποβόρος. The Greek band has been slowly forging their album since 2017, when their track Ξίφη Στραμμένα στο Φοίνικα appeared in the Art Against Censorship compilation, definitely turning some […]
Review: End – III (Full album, 2009) | Black metal

Review: Sun Of Nothing – Maze (Full album, 2024) | Post-black metal, sludge
Sun Of Nothing are not just another band, they are a phenomenon. They were the linchpin that turned the tide of the Greek heavy music scene in an era it was entrenched in traditionalism and finally dragged it into an era where “sludge”, “hardcore” and “experimental” were not dirty words to be ashamed of. And […]

Greek antifascists to oppose MGLA
Mgla are on another European tour right now, passing from countries in Southern Europe among many reactions already, as expected because of the band’s well-known fascist connections, which they’ve always refused to acknowledge. In Greece, many anti-racist organizations and pages have called out the band and the organizers have responded by threatening to sue everyone […]
