New Junk Aesthetic
level 15 Cosmicism   80/100
Overall positive, and I like how they stay true to the hardcore punk that metalcore is supposed to be influenced by. I was expecting much worse music, and I was glad to be wrong. The only weak point I can think of is that every song has the same aggressive energy, and that some variety could make it better.   Dec 12, 2023
Alfö​ld

The heaviness really astounded me. It also switches between many styles, but it always feels natural. The 1st Wave BM riffs were an especially enjoyable treat.   Dec 12, 2023
Lightbringer​-​Leidbringer
level 15 Cosmicism   85/100
Their 2023 album is much better, but everything about this one is positive too. Well played. Also there is a passage of death metal for variety. I'm glad I gave it a try.   Dec 12, 2023

Interesting style from these guys, and I really get into it. The vocal style might be divisive for metalheads.   Dec 10, 2023

The best thing I've heard in days. They really make the kick drums the focus of their compositions, and the result is some massively heavy music. I really need to catch up with this band now.   Dec 10, 2023
Complete Control
level 15 Cosmicism   80/100
Another good deathgrind album from Misery Index. They always inject feeling into the songs through their timing & energy. Most of their albums are better than this, but it's still solid to me.   Dec 10, 2023

Track 3 is completely filler & weak. If you see a 9-minute bonus track on the end, just skip that one too. The rest fun, full of passion, and actually infectious. When there's a whole band showing synergy, Otep's charisma results in exciting music.   Dec 10, 2023

An amazing start from one of my favorite tech death bands. I also love how the cover art is atypical for the sub-genre.   Dec 10, 2023
Tr​​​ä​​​nen der Vergangenheit - Part II

Some nice variety here, including switching into depressive for a moment. I liked Part 1 more, but I'm still immensely glad to here this one.   Dec 10, 2023

A very good BM album by the vocalist of Ofnus.   Dec 10, 2023
The Trouble With Angels
level 15 Cosmicism   80/100
I like everything except the first song. Richard's vocal ability is OK, and he gets even more out of it than your average singer through a repertoire of techniques, and it all helps the songs' power. Track 10 has an intensely sad melody and intensely sad lyrics. Despite being 'the slow song' it's actually fantastic.   Dec 10, 2023

Major respect to the band leader for the soul-piercing vocals and the cool cover art.   Dec 10, 2023
The Lost Dimension

There are a bunch of 'hell yeah' epic moments on this album. Just keep in mind that there's a lot of dungeon synth on this one.   Dec 5, 2023

level 15 Cosmicism   80/100
Good to find out that this album is mostly good songs. I knew this release was a big commercial endeavor, but props to Stabbing Westward and everyone involved for keeping it real. That running time looks too long, and it's some of the songs in the middle that should have been cut in my opinion (especially the slower ones). Save Yourself is quite wonderful. All in all, worth giving it a try.   Dec 5, 2023

Great album cover with great music inside. I especially love the head-bopping rabble-rousing aspect of the music. So good all around that I even love the logo. I need to start listening to these guys more.   Dec 2, 2023
Prophet of Eternal Damnation
level 15 Cosmicism   80/100
Good war metal for satisfying your need for heaviness here. It doesn't have the captivating melodies of other war metal bands such as Archgoat, but it's still enjoyable.   Dec 2, 2023

Greyness of a Young Despondency
level 15 Cosmicism   65/100
Even with this early Sadness album, I can hear how Damián had a vision for great music, but on this one the instrumentation feels clumsy and lacks the usual energy. Later releases get so much better.   Dec 2, 2023
Elävältä Haudattu
level 15 Cosmicism   70/100
It gets into a really nice groove and the main melody is extremely catchy. I was really enjoying it, but it just repeats & repeats for way too long, and the outro is unnecessary and tests my patience. After taking some points off for these flaws, it's still okay.   Dec 2, 2023
the rime of memory
level 15 Cosmicism   95/100
Extremely cathartic music from Panopticon. So close to giving it a perfect score. I'm thinking it his 2nd best so far. 1 hour & 15 minutes went by quickly. Definitely my pick of the day.   Dec 2, 2023

The ferocity pierces right into my chest when I listen to this one. Trhä is searching for strange new sonic worlds. This EP feels like a festive celebration on some alien planet where the creatures express holiday spirit with frantic fury. The clean outro is a great addition too. Great work by Damián.   Dec 2, 2023

Just 16 minutes, but this is one of the best release I've heard from them. On top of that, the theme running through their album covers and lyrical content really gives me respect for these guys.   Dec 1, 2023

I understand what SilentScream213 is saying in his review, but I just love this insane drumming so much in the forefront in the mix. The rapid fury and density of grindcore is not always my jam, but I feel different about this one. Then again, when it's deathgrind I tend to like it more often, so maybe it's also my quirk, but this is intense and enjoyable music.   Dec 1, 2023

These guys surely have their own style. It took me some minutes to realize what kinds of metal I was hearing. This is all played very well, and I loved the feeling of adventure. I also bet many bands are jealous of the band name.   Dec 1, 2023

That album title and cover art are in the best of taste. The vocals are deeper and more gruff than you'll be expecting, but with this album, Zannibal has created a very unique blend of influences, making this black metal stick out from other albums as much as that album cover does. It's also always nice to see albums actually be about something. Well rounded and good throughout.   Dec 1, 2023

신화 속 폭력적인 이면에 대한 감정적 해석의 전달. 에픽한 소재들을 다루면서도 그것에 매몰되어 주객이 전도되지 않게끔 느낌과 표현에 철저히 집중한 듯하며, 그런 면모가 감정적이되 냉철하게 와닿는다.   Oct 31, 2024

Handle With Care
level 15 metalnrock   85/100
85-90, 예전에 빽판으로 즐기던 음반. 운이 좋게 다시 시디로 구입하게 들어보게 되었다. 지금 이 시점에서는 좋게 들렸고 시원시원했다. 녹음은 거칠긴 하나 가끔 너무 갑갑한 믹싱이 되어 있는 메탈음반이 많은데 차라리 이런 식으로 만드는게 낫다 싶다. 1,2집도 언제인가는 구해지지 않을까 생각해본다.   Oct 30, 2024

level 10 sierrahotel   80/100
어쿠스틱 기타, 첼로, 플루트 등을 이용하여 녹음한 어쿠스틱 사운드의 작품이다. 그러나 표현하고자 하는 사운드의 방향성 자체는 무겁고 진지하다. 멜로디가 약간 서늘한 냉기를 품고 있다. 더운 여름에 들으면 시원함을 느낄 수도 있지만 대체로 가을의 분위기에 잘 어울린다. 커버아트와 음악의 매칭이 절묘하다.   Nov 4, 2024

90-95. 이 시기의 블가 앨범들은 다 좋은 듯. hansi의 보컬을 더 느끼고 싶어서 사모으기 시작한 앨범인데 그렇다고 나랑 맞는 음악을 하는 밴드가 아닐 수 있었지만 지금까지 몇번들어본 결과는 만족스러운 행진 중이다. the eldar같은 곡은 지금의 나에게는 최고의 곡. 인트로+본곡 같은 스타일로 중복이 되는데 큰 단점같지는 않다. 조화롭게 잘 넘어갔다.   Nov 8, 2024

95-100 2024년까지 나온 오케스트라와의 협연 음반 모든 것을 통틀어 최고다. 다 어설픈 편곡때문에 그냥 원곡 듣고 말지 라는 생각이 드는 반면 이 음반은 최소 제대로 만들어진 영화음악 하나 들었다 할 정도로 편곡자체가 매우 잘 되어 밴드와 오케스트라가 제대로 융화 예상과 달리 스튜디오로 앨범을 냈지만 dvd 2disc를 사면 라이브 시디가 포함되어 있는 듯 하다.   3 days ago

라센은 일본 빅터에서 받아 동일하게 12번 "Rainy Nights"이 더 들어가 있다. 앙그라 초기는 의외로 많이 듣지 않아 생각보다 익숙하지 않은 면이 있다. 현재는 이 정도 점수를 주고 다음에 또 감상하면서 고쳐보도록 하겠다   Oct 28, 2024

Their most representative album of the eighties, full of innovation and class, with forceful themes and a benchmark in style for the hard rock genre, in fact it is their best-selling work to date! My personal precise rating is (94/100) Faves: Criyng In The Rain and Don´t Turn Away!   Oct 30, 2024

80-90. 메킹 커멘트를 보고 얼라이브를 베스트 대용으로 해도 된다는 의견에 2,3를 사게 되었는데 1,3에만 rock and roll all nite가 있다는 것을 다시 여기서도 알립니다. 이번에 사게된 앨범이 일본반 shm-cd 규격인데 음질이 나쁜게 아니지만 2보다는 살짝 거친게 아닌가 싶다. 아직까지는 얼라이브 시리즈+일반 스튜디오 베스트 조합으로 끝낼 생각.   Nov 6, 2024

훌륭한 데뷰. 1집을 꼭 사야 할까라는 생각으로 살다가 이제야 얻어걸린 느낌으로 사게 되었다. 물론 1집을 필수라고 여기지 않았지만 후회도 없다. 보컬이 멤버들보다 나이가 10여살 많은 걸로 기억하고 게디리의 좀 더 듣기 좋은 버전이라고 생각이 든다. 다만 믹싱이 마음에 들지 않아서 살짝 밋밋하다. 보컬과 드럼이 살짝 뒤로 간 느낌.리믹스가 절실하나 과연?   Nov 7, 2024
