Midnight, Satanic Royalty, is some great Heavy Metal with strong Black tendencies. The riffs are fast and hard with strong vocals. The songs rock with something that’s a bit more Heavy than Black. Could just be my mood while listening to it. They have a lot of albums, including one released this year. I may… Read more Midnight – Satanic Royalty

Power Trip – Opening Fire : 2008 – 2014
Power Trip: Opening Fire 2008 – 2014, is a collection of early non-LP songs that was collected to celebrate ten years of Power Trip. Then Riley Gale died this year and it became kind of a tribute to his legacy. These songs are all early and rough and showcase the enthusiasm he brought to the… Read more Power Trip – Opening Fire : 2008 – 2014
Mgla – Age of Excuse
This is the second Mgla album I’ve purchased. Age of Excuse is another really great epic Black Metal album. The album track listing is again the album name with roman numeral listings for each song. They create albums that are more about the whole experience as opposed to individual songs. Which kind of explains the… Read more Mgla – Age of Excuse
Cirith Ungol – Servants of Chaos
Cirth Ungol, Servants of Chaos, is a huge album full of their best songs. It’s not really advertised as a greatest hits song, but it is and more. There’s plenty of songs off the albums, plus live recordings, and even a few things that aren’t on anything released before. It’s probably good enough as the… Read more Cirith Ungol – Servants of Chaos
Ghoul – Wall of Death
This is a short one today. Ghoul, Wall of Death, EP has a couple of cool Ghoul tracks. It’s late and I don’t feel like writing much. But disciple requires at least writing something. I’ve written enough about how much I like the Thrash Metal things guys do that I don’t’ need to list much… Read more Ghoul – Wall of Death
Midnight Dice – Hypnotized
Midnight Dice, Hypnotized, sounds like the best kind of 80s female led Metal. Fast, with great Riffs, and powerful vocals. Midnight Dice come around after the break up of Satan’s Hallow. I liked that band also, so happy to see new music from some of them. Mandy Martillo has a great voice and the guitar… Read more Midnight Dice – Hypnotized
Gruesome – Savage Land
I was listening to Gruesome, Savage Land, and thinking they sounded like something. I was really enjoying the fast paced, heavy Death Metal sound, but couldn’t quite place it and then I remembered these are the guys that are basically a Death tribute band, but with their own songs. I bet they play actual Death… Read more Gruesome – Savage Land
Incantation – Sect of Vile Divinities
Incantation, Sect of Vile Divinities, is a Death Metal band that has been around a long time. This is their twelfth album and my first from them. They started after i had stopped really paying attention to the Death Metal scene back in the early 90s, but this is a great album. Apparently this is… Read more Incantation – Sect of Vile Divinities
Fecundation – Decomposition of Existence (and more)
Fecundation, Decomposition of Existence, is Metal best saved for when you’re not eating. I think I experienced it with my last two dives into this music. It’s unsettling and almost nauseating. The riffs are fast and heavy and it sounds great, but the vocals are on a whole ‘nother level of putrification. It sounds like… Read more Fecundation – Decomposition of Existence (and more)
Wraith – Speed Armageddon
Wraith, Speed Armageddon, is an EP split with Bastardizer that is some great fast Thrash Metal with some Death vibe vocals. I only got half the album, unfortunately. The Bastardizer half got left off. I mean, Wraith is awesome and it’s some kick-ass Metal, but I would have liked the whole thing. Still the three… Read more Wraith – Speed Armageddon
