level 14 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

level 14 Cosmicism   95/100
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 14 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
level 14 Cosmicism   85/100
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
Fall of the Northern Kingdom
level 14 Cosmicism   85/100
A very good BM album by the vocalist of Ofnus.   Dec 10, 2023
The Trouble With Angels
level 14 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
level 14 Cosmicism   80/100
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
The Devil You Know
level 14 Cosmicism   95/100
Every member shines, the lyrics are fun, and the riffs are so cool. These musicians deserve their legendary status.   Dec 5, 2023

I thoroughly enjoyed this album, but the band got better in mid career.   Dec 5, 2023

level 14 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

level 14 Cosmicism   90/100
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 14 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 14 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 14 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 14 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
Misery Index
preview  Assück preview  Misery Index (1997)
level 14 Cosmicism   85/100
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

DT와 더불어 가장 활발한 활동을 하는 스틸 얼라이브 프록메탈 밴드로 영국의 대표밴드 스래쉬홀드와 더불어 독일을 대표하는 프록메탈밴드로 아주 훌륭한 연주력과 작곡력이 이번 앨범에도 퍼포먼스에 광을 내고 있다   May 3, 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

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

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

천재라 불렸던 자들은 진짜 총기가 불을 뿜는 때가 있다. 이시절의 나가쉬가 그랬다. 전작과 너무 다른 이앨범으로 전작에 버금가는 놀라운 사운드를 만들어냈다. 일렉트로니카와 익스트림을 섞어 부대찌개처럼 절묘한 융합의 새로운 맛을 냈다. 이렇게 세기말을 통과했던 이들은 너무 빨리 미래로 넘어갔다. 25년이 넘어도 여전히 미래적이다.   May 14, 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

개인적으로 이 앨범을 그렇게 좋아하지 않는다. 이 앨범이야 말로 방향성이 애매했던 프로듀싱과 작곡으로 생각보다 안좋네 라고 생각했던 앨범. 물론 메탈 갓이 주다스의 시그니쳐로 쓰이기는 한데 이 곡도 애매하다. 브레이킹 더 로나 리빙도 맘에 안들고 물론 관중과 싱어롱할때는 좋긴 하다고 생각은 하지만 말이다. 75-80점.6번 8번이 의외로 좋다.   May 8, 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

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
