level 15 Cosmicism   75/100
I've been trying sasscore, and I don't know if I just respect how well they make something I don't like, or if I actually like it, or if those 2 things are the same in the end. Now my brain is spinning like a gyroscope. I'll shut up and give it a 75.   May 29, 2024
Broke Sabbath
preview  Dopethrone preview  Broke Sabbath (2024)
level 15 Cosmicism   85/100
This menacing and somewhat blackened vocals match perfectly with these great sneering songs.   May 29, 2024
Road to hell
preview  Iron Curtain preview  Road to hell (2012)
level 15 Cosmicism   80/100
With this album, Iron Curtain was off to a fantastic start.   May 29, 2024
Desolation Temple
level 15 Cosmicism   90/100
Brand-new artist with a nice debut full of agony, evil, & everything else a black metal fan is hoping for.   May 29, 2024
Naturmystik
preview  Häxanu / Greve preview  Naturmystik (2024)  [Split]
level 15 Cosmicism   95/100
My pick of the day, and I can't stop listening to it. Both bands contribute top-tier songs, and there was some fiery passion in the air when they recorded. 2 of the best and most happening BM bands at the moment, and they have all my respect for their dedication.   May 29, 2024
Death from the North
level 15 Cosmicism   85/100
They have good taste in black metal and good judgement. The song intros are short and purposeful. Good music from a band that was apart for 17 years.   May 29, 2024
Reclamation: Part 1
preview  Amiensus preview  Reclamation: Part 1 (2024)
level 15 Cosmicism   90/100
The fiery vocals are great. It gets out of BM territory for some variety but then returns in triumphant fashion. Their best album yet.   May 27, 2024
The Constellatory Practice
level 15 Cosmicism   75/100
A lot of doom and ritual music on this too. It could use some trimming. Pretty good.   May 27, 2024
Cryptospores
preview  Lascar preview  Cryptospores (2018)  [EP]
level 15 Cosmicism   85/100
Nice succinct atmospheric BM EP. It's that powerful kind of ABM that hits my heart so directly.   May 27, 2024
I Magen Av Svart Kaos
level 15 Cosmicism   85/100
Great & tragic melodies and good songwriting with movements that accentuate each other brilliantly. It's nice to see how he was more doom on earlier releases, but increased the black metal a lot with this release. Also, the title means 'in the belly of black chaos'.   May 27, 2024
Celestial Blues
preview  King Woman preview  Celestial Blues (2021)
level 15 Cosmicism   70/100
Kind of good but also dull at times and definitely misguided. I don't like how the metal parts are used as jump-scares. There's too much singing and sometimes it drones on too much. Individual elements are good on this album, but I don't find them used in the right way. Don't get me wrong; it's not bad. Just so-so.   May 26, 2024

An NSFW album cover and 38 minutes of totally solid songs. I know some metal fans won't like that cover art and the whole perverted demonic aesthetic, but don't assume their immature and close off your mind. This is good music here.   May 26, 2024
Angel Dust
preview  Faith No More preview  Angel Dust (1992)
level 15 Cosmicism   90/100
This album goes everywhere musically. While it's not my favorite from them, it's still a great accomplishment that came from real vision and critical thinking skills at a master tier.   May 26, 2024

This is all good, but those last 2 songs are just amazing. I really look forward to trying earlier releases by this band.   May 26, 2024
Catharsis
preview  Machine Head preview  Catharsis (2018)
level 15 Cosmicism   60/100
I liked Beyond the Pale a bit, but this very long album is full of songs that make me roll my eyes and slow filler songs that do nothing for me. Their best albums are so much better than this.   May 26, 2024
The Granite Wall
preview  Oreamnos preview  The Granite Wall (2023)
level 15 Cosmicism   85/100
Matthew / Lord Sxuperion produces a lot of great music in a wide variety of styles. Here it's death metal, and I think I've never heard this much atmosphere in a death metal album. Very interesting & memorable.   May 26, 2024
Visual Kill: The Blossoming of Psychotic Depravity
level 15 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.   May 26, 2024
The Frozen Garden of the Hesperides
level 15 Cosmicism   80/100
Good hypnotizing album for getting in a chill-out zone.   May 26, 2024
Extinction Protocol
level 15 Cosmicism   70/100
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.   May 26, 2024
Everything that is You
level 15 Cosmicism   90/100
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.   May 26, 2024
Hell, Fire and Damnation
level 15 Cosmicism   90/100
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.   May 26, 2024

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.   May 26, 2024
Desolated Realms Through Iniquity
level 15 Cosmicism   80/100
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.   May 26, 2024
Lost, Forgotten and Heartbroken
level 15 Cosmicism   95/100
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.   May 26, 2024

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.   May 26, 2024

Pretty darn good doom here.   May 26, 2024
Abandon Ship

Track 5 and some other cool parts are worth a listen, but in the end it's a just so-so album.   May 26, 2024
Dreams in Formaline
level 15 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.   May 26, 2024
Desolation
preview  Khemmis preview  Desolation (2018)
level 15 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.   May 26, 2024

저먼 스래쉬 삼총사 중에서 가장 유명한 크리에이터의 2집으로 타이틀곡이자 앨범 제목 '살인의 쾌락' 만큼 음악이 살벌하다. 이후 5년 정도 명반 행진을... 스래쉬 최고의 해인 86년에 나온 앨범 중에서 이거랑 견줄만한게 슬레이어 3집이나 다크엔젤 2집이 있다. 3작품 모두 내가 가장 원하는 초스피드,초과격이라는 공통점이 있다.   Jun 3, 2024

이 앨범 페인킬러보다 좋다. Ram It Down부터 Monsters of Rock을 거쳐 리마스터반에 수록된 Night Comes Down, Bloodstone 라이브 트랙까지 완벽 그 자체. 이것이야말로 한 트랙도 절대 빼버릴 게 없는 무결점의 헤비메탈 명반이다.   Jun 4, 2024

음악을 오래 듣다보니, 어렵고 복잡한 음악을 만드는 것보다는, 뜯어보니 정말 단순하고 별거 아닌, 남들도 다 할 수 있는 요소들을 절묘하게 조합해서 좋게 들리도록 만드는 것이 훨씬 어려운 것 같다. 그럼 관점에서라면 본조비는 '실력이 대단한 밴드'라고 자신있게 할 만하다.   7 days ago

락/메탈의 시대 흐름에 따른 트렌드의 변화를 가장 적나라하게 보여주는 앨범. 메탈헤드 모두가 수긍할 만한 스타일의 음악은 아니지만 당시 Slayer도 Public Enemy도 좋아했던 나에게는 최고의 앨범 중 하나였다.   May 18, 2024

Falling Into Infinity
level 2 jun163516   90/100
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

얼터너티브 뽕을 제대로 맞기전 마지막 인플의 멜로딕 데스메탈 작품이다, 이 앨범도 역시 얼터뽕이 들어간 곡이 많이수록 되어있다. 90년대의 뭐랄까 쓸쓸함이 느껴지는 인플만의 감성이 많이 사라지긴 했지만 이전작들에서 들어본적 없는 중독적인 후크송도 있고 이 정도면 전체적으로 훌륭하다고 생각한다.   May 24, 2024

분명 KEEPER 시리즈 이후 나온 앨범이라 기대감에 비해 충격을 받은 건 사실이나 평가 절하될 정도의 앨범은 아니라고 본다. 2,4,7,8,10,11번 트랙 등 괜찮은 곡들이 많다. 개인적으로는 키스케의 보컬은 고음도 좋지만 저음을 더 좋아하는 지라...보너스 트랙인 "Shit And Lobster" 도 나쁘지 않다.   May 27, 2024

변화가 없으면 늘 똑같은 것만 한다고 욕 먹고, 좀 달리 하면 초심을 버렸다고 욕 먹고. 하지만 이 앨범에서 Demon Driver를 지나치면 안 됨. 특히 중간에 스윕피킹으로 갈겨주는 아름다운 아르페지오는 더더욱.   Jun 3, 2024
