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: Act The Fool – Nebel (EP, 2024) | Hardcore
Happy Sunday everybody! We hope you’re in the mood for something a little different but that doesn’t stray too far from our usual vision.

Review: Goblin Soap – Goblin Offensive (Full album, 2024) | Blackened punk
At times, there are bands which present you with such a complex mix of genres that you don’t really know what to expect. Goblin Soap is one of them! A mix of blackened hardcore, d-beat, and synth coming straight from a dungeon synth album, distorted screams, what do you say? With three instrumental tracks, synths for […]

Hello again fellow listeners of excruciating tunes with no shallow political ambiguity!

Review: Defenestrate – Sobek (Full EP, 2024) | Blackened punk
It’s blackened punk Sunday y’all! And to properly celebrate, we got the last work by one of the (less rare than what many people might think) young four-piece NY band Defenestrate, which presents themselves as students from the Suny Purchase College. They show to be staunchly antifascist so we can only be joyful to see […]
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: 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 […]
