Thrailkill is a sweet instrumental progressive metal band that released this album “Everything That Is You” last year. After giving it a decent ear, I really dig this band even more. They’re not your typical instrumental metal band…..there’s much. much more to them than they lead on. The band […]
Jason Rodriguez is a melodic progressive metal instrumentalist who released a stellar album last year titled “HeartStrings”. He is not of the norm for an instrumentalist….sure he’s a great guitar player but he’s not a “show off” if you know what I mean. He’s written an album based […]
Progressive Power Metal Band Mortanius is releasing their first full length album “Til Death Do Us Part” on February 22nd and we have the low down for you here at TMR! This band is very entertaining with its symphonic and neoclassical elements, adding all those acoustic and classical guitar […]
Modern Progressive Metal Italians Forlorn Seas dropped a banging album today January 11th titled “Exodus” and I am here to digitally (thankfully not literally) sing my praises about this stellar band. Forlorn Seas meshes a lot of modern sounds, not only some growls but beautiful vocal melodies and harmonies along […]
Mind blowers Necropathy released a new song on Christmas, and wow…yeah that’s all I have to say. If you imagine Brain Drill, Necrophagist and Viraemia had a child out of wedlock Necropathy would be the result of that wild evening. Yeah….so let’s get down to business. It’s a blistering band […]
Wow, well RealityFade Records has another serious banger…..and a weird band, at that. Heck, that’s what TMR strives for! This is a Russian Grindcore band….with yes, random jazz sections in between blast beats on their 15 minute album. And NO this is not that clowncore weird crap that’s […]
Mathcore/Prog Metal outfit Orchid is releasing their album “Miasma” tomorrow January 10th and it is quite the wild joyride through crackheadtown. Truthfully I really dig this band. They have the talent and energy of mathcore legends Dillinger Escape Plan, and the talent to pull off other jazzy and prog […]
The weird Progressive/Funk/Metal/Experimental band Short Attention Span Theatre bring a much needed and fresh sound to our local Western New York music scene. Music is watered down these days, and it’s cool to see weirder and more artistic bands slowly come out of the woodworks. These cats draw heavy influence […]
“…be thrown into hell, where their worm never dies…” -Mark 9:48 It’s been a pretty long time since I’ve been so ecstatic about something that it was so near impossible to wipe a dumb looking grin off my face. Guitarist Brian Mason left me this album in my […]
I wish I knew about these guys sooner! To keep it heavy, this is some straight up death metal with no limitations whatsoever. Realityfade Records has some solid bands on their label, with my first discovery Habitual Depravity. Abhorrent Aggression is a New York based death metal band. Living […]
