Cosmicism 50/100
Maybe it's supposed to be a joke. If that's true that helps a tiny bit, but it's still bad. 2 days ago

The 1st couple of tracks felt kind of luke warm to me, but the album started winning me over quickly after those ones. Some great songs on this, and the attitude soaked into the whole thing is just so perfect. Definitely enjoyable. 2 days ago

I love the general sound of this album; it really makes me want to listen again & again. 2 days ago

The symphonic element is pretty prominent on this extremely dramatic album. Very good all around. 2 days ago

Very high chance this will be the best album this year. Possibly better than anything last year. Yes it's great atmospheric black metal, but there's a lot of classical music here too, and I just love it all. There are also some moments that are very metal but not particularly blackened. It also gets folky. Tons of variety, and 58 minutes never went by so fast in my whole life. 5 days ago

Pretty consistent death metal. For the vocals that lack variety throughout, it's too consistent. Anyway it's still satisfying and good & old school. Death metal fans will probably be into it more than me. 5 days ago

A very nice blast of 3 quick songs. Everything went better than expected with heavy guitars & barking vocals destroying our civilization. Almost as good as their 3 songs on the Hymns of Devastation split. 5 days ago
Cosmicism 75/100
Species Splicer steals the show with their 3 short & excellent songs. The black metal element works wonderfully and brings a ton of variety & depth to the great slam of those songs. The other 2 bands do so-so, with Esophagus being slightly better than disorder. 5 days ago

The other project by Caleb from Kyptoxik Mortality. This one is a chance to include blackened elements into the songs, but the music is still essentially death metal and slamming brutal death metal (not as black metal as the cover art looks). Overall, it's a good first EP, but the better stuff comes in later years. 5 days ago

Pretty good blackgaze & atmospheric BM EP. 5 days ago
Cosmicism 70/100
I thought I was being Insanity Wolf trying an album that ranks so low, but for me it's not so bad; just kinda plain, mediocre, and lacking variety. The riffing is pretty good, and the recording achieves a pretty good sound. I wish Deathblade had this kind of production for their album I just rated, because Deathblade wrote much better songs. In the end, meh. 5 days ago

So I had an industrial Wednesday, and this was the low point. I'm trying to be fair because they are clearly going for a challenging listening experience that is should be hard for some people to enjoy but should still be good underneath. Unfortunately it doesn't work that well IMHO - there are some cool moments but it doesn't really speak to me as a whole. All in all, kind of good. 5 days ago
Cosmicism 85/100
From my gory Tuesday, this was the fastest & most intense release I tried. I'm not quite sure that makes it the best. Either way, it's a good jolt of energy. 5 days ago

It really puts me in a mood and helps me imagine all kinds of dark bloody rooms. Mission accomplished for Miasmatic Necrosis. 5 days ago

Extremely thick-feeling music. With this artist, it's either frogs or decomposing in Fiji. Well, the vacation of your nightmares is one way to fulfill your dreams... 5 days ago

All is good & well-played here. I expected super fast songs but. oh well, I'll still listen to more from this band. 5 days ago

Mixed feelings on this release. The recording is bad, and I don't like the sound of the vocals, which might also be because of the recording. The songs are well written, and the riffing is NICE. 5 days ago

So I had a gory Tuesday, and this was a fantastic way to start it off. Not as excellent as their 2024 album, but it's great so early in their career. 5 days ago

Nice meaty sound on this one. I'm becoming a serious fan of Full of Hell. 5 days ago

Very precise execution, and the drums have a great sound. Nice & powerful. 5 days ago

Oh heck yeah. This deathgrind is just so fiery. The members experience from their previous band is apparent. 5 days ago

I wasn't surprised, but this EP really stole my heart. I find the first half more engaging than the second, but it's still a great experience to hear the whole thing and drift away. 5 days ago

I enjoyed it mildly. No particular misstep, just nothing that feels excellent. 5 days ago

Really beautifully demonic music by this extremely vital band. I can't say, however, that this album is as much of a gem as their 2022 album. Versets noirs is only 42 minutes and the last track is a Samael cover, so it doesn't pack as much value overall. The result is that we should just listen to a bunch of their releases in a row and feel super satisfied. Thank you so much, ACOD! Apr 29, 2024
Cosmicism 90/100
Great heavy metal and thrash with still that hint of BM. Of the past 10 years, I think this one is 2nd to Old Star; really close in fact. Also, that cover art works fantastically with the theme, and its element of surrealism is mixed in perfectly. This album is a class act in many respects from the prolific veterans. Apr 29, 2024

This one has some absolutely beautiful Pink-Floyd-sounding moments, and all the sludge is good as well. Solid album. Apr 29, 2024
Cosmicism 90/100
Some bands like Full of Hell play a real unique mix of quite a few genres, and they truly excel with this approach. For metalheads who are trying to develop an understanding of a genre, this can be really confusing. Anyway, one track starts off as drone metal and quickly phases into doom. There are all kinds of other brilliant highlights. For me, the deathgrind brings the most satisfaction. Top-tier work, overall. Apr 29, 2024

Personally, I have always liked Sonata Arctica, and the new album is one of the best that the band has released in the last 10 years. Apr 13, 2024

아름답고 부드럽다. 복잡한 구성의 멜로디가 유려하게 이어져 빗물처럼 시냇물처럼 아름다운 흐름을 이루어내고 있다. 음질과 드럼의 아쉬움을 제외한다면 최고의 앨범이다. 88점. Apr 13, 2024

내가 바라는 프로그레시브메탈 그 자체. 부드러움, 날뛰는 에너지, 서정성, 테크니컬함 모든것을 갖추었다. 드림씨어터 3집과 함꼐 주관적인 프로그레시브메탈 최고작. 94점. Apr 16, 2024

3인조 코로너의 전 앨범 특히 2,3,4집을 좋아합니다. 옛날에 3집을 LP로 구입했었는데 속지에 시계, 스위스, 큰 글자로 '그로테스크' 라고 적힌 기억이.. 이후 90년대 중후반에 걸쳐서 전 앨범을 시디로 하나씩 모았죠. 30년간 신보를 안 내고 재결성 후에 아직도 활동하는 것도 특이한데, 그만큼 고정팬들이 많다는거 거겠죠. Apr 25, 2024

간만에 듣는 수작 프로그레시브 젠트 앨범. 개인적으로 프록을 좋아하지 않음에도 불구하고 리프가 살아있고 복잡한 연주보다는 분위기나 리듬이 강조되어 듣는 재미가 배가 되었다. 보컬이 그로울링이었더라면 취향 100점 짜리 앨범이 되었지 않을까라는 생각도 드는 앨범. Apr 29, 2024

오늘 하루 지쳤거나 우울한 분들께 보내는 아름다운 멜로디인 것 같습니다. 길을 잃고 헤매는 자들을 위해 어두운 밤 하늘에서 별빛을 비추는 느낌을 받은 것 같습니다만 아쉬운 건 트랙이 진행될수록 점점 앨범의 느낌이나 분위기 또한 늘어져 길 잃고 헤매는 느낌을 받았습니다. 그래도 전작이 너무 강해서 그렇지 이 앨범도 좋습니다. Apr 9, 2024

작년에 stratovarius 탐구해봤었는데요. 과거에도 명반이 차고 넘쳤습니다만 개인적으로는 이 앨범이 최고입니다. 마치 어벤져스 엔드게임에서 타노스를 무찌르기 위해 어벤져스들이 한 자리에 모인 것처럼 강렬한 인상을 받게 해주었으니까요. Apr 9, 2024

쓸쓸하고도 외롭지만 그만큼 아름다우면서도 강렬한 명반. 도대체 어떤 유령을 만나서 이야기를 나눴길래 이런 명반이 나오는 걸까요? Apr 10, 2024

이 앨범은 한 편의 영화입니다 음반을 재생하는 순간 당신은 꿈의 극장의 관객으로 초대됩니다 8개의 장면들을 지나 Finally Free에서 현실로 돌아올때의 카타르시스는 그 어떤 음악에서도 느껴보지 못한 강렬함을 선사해줍니다 이 앨범의 단점은 중반부에 좀 쳐진다는 것 그리고 가사집을 보면서 들어야한다는 것입니다 반드시 가사를 꼭 보면서 들으시길바랍니다. Apr 10, 2024
