הרשימה השחורה | The Black List | القائمة السوداء (Compilation, 2024)
Of COURSE, we’d do a post on October 7th about the colonialist war Israel is leading in the Middle East against the Palestinians, the Lebanese, and basically everyone who’s not white and fascist, what did you expect? We’re ANTIFASCIST, being anti-Zionist is part of that for anyone who’s serious – and that’s really just a […]
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: Swampworm – Architeuthis (Full EP, 2024) | Dissonant blackened grind

Review: Ragum – ‘Beyouv’ (Full album, 2024) | Grindcore
Ah, grindcore! It’s always refreshing to have a barrage of short songs and barked vocals after some of our more usual long-form black metal menus. Today’s piece, however, is even more welcome than usual, for Ragum, our guests for this “beautiful” Monday, are a band from the city of Haifa in occupied Palestine/”Israel”, and outright […]
Review: TerraMorta – Intifada (Full album, 2024) | Grindcore
Intifada is a grindcore album with a black metal twist. Released a few weeks ago by the newly created band Terra Morta, this album is a very short but intense album, as you could expect from a grindcore band. Mixing crust punk, grindcore and some black metal rhythms, this album will match your needs of […]
Review: Masochrist – Grimecode: DCLXVI (Full album, 2023) | Melodic death grind
Masochrist is what you expect from melodic death grind: the music you need to get up and go to work, the music that keeps your heart beating, the music that will scare your parents, your colleagues, or any right-minded person. With 18 songs for almost 17 minutes, this album keeps a very high standard of […]
Review: Malevich – “Inalienable” (Track, 2024) | Blackened grind
In the turn to spring for the northern hemisphere, some parts of the world are bracing for oppressively thick humidity that makes the air all heavy and us sluggish. To bring this sort of greeting to us we have a new pounding, riffing, thick atmosphere single called Inalienable by the Atlanta, Georgia band, Malevich. You’re […]
Paranormal Arson – “Hook, line, sinker” (Single, 2024) | Death metal
Paranormal Arson is probably not what people expect when they see their latest single’s cover, but the fact they catch you unawares when their brutal punky death metal kicks in is part of the fun. Just one track sadly, but it’s a brutal one, definitely something to get the blood running, metaphorically AND literally. So, […]
