Hey you! Are you in a metal band? Are you tired of having to deal with bass players? They’re shitty and can barely ever remember to practice, right? They’re so stupid! Here’s a few quick tips on how to replace them and join the rest of the metal […]
I hope this becomes as civil as possible, and creates positive encouraging and educating discussion. To clarify my taste for the prog gatekeepers: I love classic, modern, instrumental, cinematic, extreme, forward thinking and any kind of experimental progressive music. Some might draw me in more than others, but […]
Tech death genre pushers Arkaik have released a ripping and different single “Wayward Opulence” off of their upcoming album “Labyrinth Of Hungry Ghosts”. To me it’s different because they are scale based riffers guitar wise, and don’t usually use full chords. Right off the bat the introduction introduces […]
Tech death needs a solid facelift. I feel like I’ve been hearing the same pedal point riffs and orchestra samples for a decade. Obviously, there are big names in technical death metal that have gained popularity in the past few years, but will they really hold up to […]
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. […]

Progressive rock/death metal titans Wilderun are releasing their new album “Epigone” on January 7th and am beyond privileged to listen to it ahead of time. I’m a big Opeth fan and always will be. Mikael’s voice has drained extreme wise, and doesnt have the passion for extreme metal […]
Andrew Lee’s Heavy Metal Shrapnel is a time capsule that brings the 80s sleaze back baby! If you love ripping, shredding solos, then you only need to wait 5 seconds before the face melting begins. As the name implies, this is truly a proper homage to the legends […]
France is not one to give the world happy art. In 2021 alone, we have received at least two gems from the country: Julia Ducournau’s Titane, and this absolute ripper of an album from Cadaveric Fumes. This is the band’s only full-length record released in the ten […]
