Disfigured, Our World, Our Problem, was a complete shock. I had to pause a second and look at them. This is old school UK punk. Not what I was expecting, but awesome just the same. When I wasn’t listening to Metal in my youth I was listening to hardcore punk and Telling Nazi Punks to… Read more The Disfigured – Our World Our Problem

That’s a really cool piece of album artwork. Although I think that Minotaur is more hiding from Theseus than being a fearsome threat. In fact he almost looks shy. Dolven, Navigating the Labyrinth, is very atmospheric music, maybe folk metal, I think. It has a lot of instrumental and it feels right at home with… Read more Dolven – Navigating the Labyrinth

Theyshootzombies.com has a list of the top 1000 Horror movies that was derived by combing through lots of other sources to make a meta list. I went through the first 150 and can’t argue that much with the list, so the whole 1000 is probably a great resource for finding something to watch.

Cemitério, is a band from Brazil. This album came out in 2015 and is really good Death Metal. I love that album art though. It’s got a evil vibe like Coffin Joe, José Mojica Marins, the great Brazilian horror filmmaker. The music is hard and fast. Really heavy. Some in Portuguese and some English, but… Read more Cemitério – Cemitério

Vacivus has a 2 song EP and a longer 5 song EP. Together it’s one album and a good one. Rite of Ascension has so much dark and doom death metal that warrants repeated listens. Nuclear Chaos is a dark and apocalyptic little album. Just two great Heavy Metal songs. Together they’re two great albums.… Read more Vacivus – Rite of Ascension, Nuclear Chaos

I don’t know what Ululation Tollent, Quantum Noose of Usurpation, means but it’s a pretty good album. Ah, I see it’s Latin for War Cry, or so they say on the album page. I’ll take their word for it. Released in 2017, so still fairly new, it’s got a good sound. Very heavy. These all… Read more Ululation Tollunt – Quantum Noose of Usurpation

My first four banger. Four albums of Death Metal from the Goatprayer label. This is the first time I’ve noticed that these album covers are Cassette Tapes. Now I can’t unsee it. All four of these albums are really good Death Metal. Filled with energy and loud vocals and riffs. They’re all fairly small, so… Read more Napalm Christ – 2013 Demo, Adder – MMXIX, Bone Tomb – Tombs of Blood, Abduction – Cyclopean Thunderbolt

Human Cull, Split Second Extinction, hits you with a machine gun intensity right out of the gate and never lets up as it assaults the senses with destructive fury. The songs are so short they go from one to the next before you even realize it’s happening. I was on the fourth song just writing… Read more Human Cull -Split Second Extinction and A split with Homolka

Just looking for something to listen to for today’s post and didn’t expect much, but Dues Vermin, Monument to Decay, is really good. The sound fills the room with an unsettling amount of noise that feels like things are crawling around inside your brain. This was released just last year, so I’m hoping they are… Read more Deus Vermin – Monument to Decay

If their name hadn’t been unpronounceable, I bet Cirith Ungol would have been a huge band in 80s Heavy Metal. One Foot In Hell was released in 1986 and is just a killer Heavy Metal album. All of their releases have been great including their new come back album. The songs are epic and powerful,… Read more Cirith Ungol – One Foot In Hell
