Hey there people! 2022 is shaping up to be hella sick as far as heavy music goes. I’m going to attempt to do a weekly roundup for the rest of the year, as long as there’s enough content and I don’t forget due to ingesting many callous chemicals […]
One of extreme metal’s underrated bands Cognitive is our featured band of the month! A good amount of our followers are probably familiar with the band to some extent. Metal in general, probably aren’t. They’ve been slowly growing underneath our very watch with their *almost* best effort so […]
Death metal has had an identity crisis as of late. Having such a litany of sub-genres and styles to pull from, many bands have become an amalgam of their peers. While those bands attempt to find their sound in a sea of drop tunings and technicality, Tormentor Tyrant […]

We are back to present you our opinions of 2021, including two new contributors who started at the end of the year! I think it’s pretty easy to see where everyone intersected, to an extent. Dave got a new chromebook, so publishing will be easier compared to 2021. […]
I figured a local artist would be a great way to start the new year in 2022, and what better way with the highly underrated multi faceted Geoff Barone. The guy sings, plays keyboards, guitar, bass and produces (mixing and maybe mastering?). Simply put he does a lot […]
