Cosmicism 85/100
A nice progression is underway for this band. It was a pleasure to listen to this album and its sound of mischievous evil in a pitch black night. 7 days ago

Good hypnotizing album for getting in a chill-out zone. 7 days ago

I have really mixed feelings here. If you hear just a second or two, it sounds like pretty good war metal, but it really needs more variety; even 15 seconds can already get repetitive. The rateyourmusic geniuses say this is the best war metal album ever - what a site of tourists. For Primitve Warfare, I have a feeling their fury will become better albums in the future. 7 days ago

There is a great deal of jazz elements on this album, but it still manages to keep me in my metal happy place the whole time. That's a sign of doing something seriously right. 7 days ago

The variety in the instrumentation keeps every song so distinct. The vocals are very good. All in all, these veterans made excellent use of their experience. Great work. 7 days ago

I just loved getting an earful of what these Kenyan artists do with industrial, grindcore, and other metal influences. It ends up being quite different from what we usually hear from other regions. Also on the cover photo, that dress in the shot with the carcass makes a stunning visual. 7 days ago

The songwriting doesn't have the same depth and captivating quality that their later material has, but it's still almost as good as their 2020 album. 7 days ago

This duo is quickly becoming a favorite band of mine. This is all as good as I was hoping for, and the title track is one of my favorite songs so far this year. 7 days ago

While this is not my favorite cybergrind release I've heard so far, it is the most insane, and bear in mind the already insane sub-genre we're talking about here. 7 days ago

Pretty darn good doom here. 7 days ago
Cosmicism 70/100
Track 5 and some other cool parts are worth a listen, but in the end it's a just so-so album. 7 days ago
Cosmicism 70/100
Better than their 2011 album. I notice this album actually has some emotion to it, and the songs feel like they accomplish something, so it was a pleasant surprise for me. All in all however, it's still just an average album. 7 days ago
Cosmicism 90/100
Gorgeous doom with a higher energy level than some people expect from doom. The vocals are truly excellent, and the production is just perfect, but the real star of this album is the great sense of melody that goes into the composition. 7 days ago

For when you want to be lost in grainy white noise & black metal, done efficiently in under 15 minutes. 7 days ago

Behind that gorgeous cover art there is atmospheric BM with a couple of depressive highlights and some clear Rush influence here & there. These elements are all done brilliantly on this super high-quality album full of powerful emotion. An assured high point of 2024. 7 days ago

The Monolith is a nice progressive album. I didn't like the fadeouts, but still it's definitely a positive experience. 7 days ago
Cosmicism 75/100
Nowhere near as good as the 1999 album, and some songs had leaning toward a lower rating, but there are some real fun moments. For me the best track is the last. 7 days ago

So nasty, thick, groovy, & kind of funky. I think their playing is progressing. Such a cool group from the underground. 7 days ago

A good listen and a nice example of Full of Hell's deep variety. May 21, 2024

I was in pure bliss. Absolutely my pick of the day. The atmosphere is thick & varied. The speed and energy are invigorating. What a great current artist to pay attention to. May 21, 2024

Very good energetic hardcore punk done well. After a slightly disappointing 2024 Knocked Loose album, Madball was the best possible change of pace. Thank you to Madball and a ton of respect. May 21, 2024

The instruments are very good but the vocals really annoy me with their style and lack of variety. May 21, 2024

I had a great time as this death doom album cracked the whole planet open. May 21, 2024
Cosmicism 75/100
Rateyourmusic.com thinks this is the #2 greatest mathcore album. I really don't agree, and it started to test my patience, but I did feel the 2nd half of the record started getting a lot more interesting and I was getting into it a lot more. Maybe it's only for super fans of the genre, but I think it's just somewhat good. May 19, 2024

I had a great time listening to this one and every element to the music works. The clashing styles of that cover art don't work, but oh well. When trance metal is done well and with positive energy like this, it's always so refreshing. May 19, 2024
Cosmicism 75/100
Good songs here. There's a ton of variety in the types of vocals, and one kind of male clean vocals feels very awkward, so there is a somewhat negative aspect. Not terrible, but it drags the quality down just a little. May 19, 2024

An improvement since Purifying Blade. These songs are hellish & powerful, and they don't diminish a bit if you keep relistening. May 19, 2024

Well this made me very happy, and I feel like a lot of effort and love went into this recording. May 19, 2024

I see here on metalkingdom.net this one ranks as one of Converge's weakest. On RYM they think it's near the top mathcore releases of all time. To my ear it's between those extremes. Pretty fun & energetic music that I'm guessing is quite challenging too. May 19, 2024

군터 베르노의 부재가 오히려 곡의 diversity가 증가하는 방향으로 귀결되어 조금 변화된 VP를 느낄수있다. 그 와중에 코어는 전혀 흔들리지 않고 너무나 탄탄한 장르의 전형을 보여주는 뛰어난 앨범이다. 이들 특유의 늘어짐이 가끔은 지루하기도 하지만, 이정도 내공에 이정도 앨범을 찍어내는 이들은 결코 없으므로, 이제 당연히 명예의 전당에 입성해야 한다. May 10, 2024

1990년도에 대체 무슨 일이 있었길래... rust in peace, painkiller, spiritual healing, cowboys from hell까지... 가슴이 웅장해진다. 나머지 앨범들도 손에 꼽을 정도로 좋아하는 앨범이지만 거의 모든 곡이 취향 저격인 앨범은 이것 밖에 없다. May 7, 2024

드디어 이들의 약점이었던 절제된 기타솔로가 어느정도 해금되었습니다. 지난 앨범도 만족스러웠는데 역시나 이번에도 실망하지 않게 해주네요. 나이가 들어감에 따라 내가 좋아하는 밴드들도 하나둘씩 늙어가고 멤버들도 세상을 떠나는 걸 보니 매우 슬프네요. 반덴플라스는 계속 음악활동 왕성히 해주었으면 좋겠습니다 May 8, 2024

너무 탄탄하다. 40년 가까이 축적된 음악성이 드러난 앨범...연주, 곡 구성, 녹음 등 나무랄 부분이 없다. May 10, 2024

Stradivarius 85/100
밀레니엄 시기의 소위 '팝수성' 가득한 사운드로 청자를 타격한다. 특기할만한 것은 그 타격 지점이 RATM도, Limp Bizkit과 Korn, Slipknot도 내딛지 않았던 공간이라는 사실. May 10, 2024

이름값에 걸맞는 앨범. 특히 유럽 내에서 그들의 인기는 타의 추종을 불허한다. 처음부터 끝까지 단단한 구성과 강력한 연주가 여전하다. 하지만 들은 후 이렇다할 임팩트나 싱글지향적 멜로디 부재의 한끝이 아쉽다. May 5, 2024

이 앨범 그냥 시대를 관통했습니다. 2030 고독사가 늘어나고 점점 사람들과의 관계가 멀어져 가는 요즘 시대에 살아가는 우리들에게 받아야할 위로를 이 앨범이 하나의 동화처럼 들려주기 때문입니다. 그리고 이 앨범의 모티브가 된 실화는 현 우리나라의 문제점을 그대로 나타나는 게 더 소름돋습니다. May 12, 2024

Excellent disc. Despite not surpassing its predecessor, it is a sensational album. The Last in Line is one of Dio's greatest classics. May 14, 2024

만약 "드림시어터"의 음악으로 본 다면 이 앨범은 DT중 가장 쳐지고 가벼운 음반이 될 것이다, 만약 드림시어터의 "음악"으로 본 다면 이 앨범은 재즈,블루스 등을 잘 버무려 본인들만의 스타일을 접목시켜 만들어낸 이색적인 작품이 될 것이다. 물론 호불호가 당연히 있을것이다. 하지만 이 앨범은 망작이라는 평가를 받기에는 수려한 곡들이 가득가득 들어차있다. May 18, 2024
