Ceremonial Castings [US] - Salem 1692 (2008) *Melodic Black Metal




















This is one of the catchier albums I've listened to from this year; these guys play black metal, just melodic enough to suck in those that aren't quite acquainted with the genre. The melodic tremelo picking kinda reminds me of Amon Amarth's "Once Sent In The Golden Hall" so if you liked that one, pick this shit up!

Acid Witch - Witchtanic Hellucinations (2008)



Mmmmm.....what we have here is a bubblin' cauldron full of thick, meaty death sprinkled with fuzzed-out, heavy-as-fuck doom, swimming in a gravy laced with 70's psychedelic insanity.
Add to this mix a whopping side-order of old-school horror straight outta the classic EC comics era and you've got one of the most entertaining releases of 2008.

Trap Them - Seizures in Barren Praise (2008)


Track Listing :

01. Day Nineteen: Fucking Viva
02. Day Twenty Eight: Targets
03. Day Twenty Six: Angles Anonymous in Transit
04. Day Twenty Nine: Reincarnation of Lost Lones
05. Day Twenty Five: Guignol Serene
06. Day Twenty: Flesh and Below
07. Day Twenty Four: Gutterbomb Heaven on the Grid
08. Day Twenty Three: Invertopia / Day Thirty: Class Warmth
09. Day Twenty One: Roam / Day Twenty Two: Absent Civilians
10. Day Thirty One: Mission Convincers

This New Hampshire hardcore band hasn't been around for long. In fact, they transfered to Deathwish Inc. in late 2007. And with that they gained the quality of being instantly memorable, something they never quite accomplished before. The band's ability to blend the intense d-beat grindcore of earlier recordings with inventive, slower-paced tracks all while maintaining high levels of abrasiveness and emotion makes Seizures in Barren Praise their finest record to date. This is without a doubt one of the year's best.

Incantation - Blaphemous Cremation EP (2008)



















Ohhhhhh, here it comes. Incantation have apparently dug up something rotten that has been long lost to the darkness this time. Blasphemous Cremation contains a recording of six "rough" tracks off of Onward To Golgotha. So let's talk about production and style on these tracks because many of you are probably thinking "eh, I already have Onward To Golgotha so I'm gonna skip this one" well, think again because Incantation have slowed things down a notch and the production has a grumbling/booming bassy feel to it combining to give a listening experience that (in my opinion) goes a step beyond what Onward had to offer. This EP has had such an effect on me that I feel it can sum up what death metal in its' entirety has to offer; it's just a perfect example of death metal at its' finest.

Order of Ennead - Order of Ennead (2008)


1) Seeking the Prophets
2) Reflection, And Endless Behaviour

3) As Long As I Have Myself, I Am Not Alone

4) The Culling

5) Introspection and the Loss of Denial

6) Conferring With Demons

7) As If A Rose I Wither

8) Interlude with Reason

9) A Cry To The Perilous Sun

10) Prelude to Ruin

11) Dismantling an Empire


Order of Ennead is one of many new artists this year. Named after the nine beings that supposedly created the universe and gave intelligence to mankind, this new band plays a unique style of blackened death metal. The music has the black metal atmosphere, vocals, and riffage and death metal drumming. However, there is one thing that stands out: the technical and melodic soloing of John Li and Kevin Quirion, which sounds like a cross between tech death and melodeath, yet manages to be neither soulless nor too Gothenburg-ish. This album is easily one of the best released this year.

Fine old school thrash from Denmark. Artillery manage to be a little bit technical and remain heavy and catchy. More so on this album than on their debut. If you don't know this band, you're in for a good 40 minutes of headbanging.

Enslaved - Vertebrae (2008)


1) Clouds
2) To the Coast
3) Ground
4) Vertebrae
5) New Dawn
6) Reflection
7) Center
8) The Watcher

It's no surprise that Enslaved has changed their from viking black metal sound to progressive metal over the years.  Vertebrae, the band's newest release, finds a perfect spot between the two genres.  The album has black metal riffage and vocals and although it lacks viking lyrics, it manages to create the viking atmosphere excellently.  On the prog side, it sounds like the guys have been listening to a lot of Pink Floyd lately.  Both the keyboards and the clean vocals have a sound quite similar to that of the prog rock gods.

Goblin "Suspiria" (1977)




From one of the scariest films ever made comes one of the creepiest soundtracks ever made. A dark, eerie, atmospheric ride from Italian industrial/progressive maestros, Goblin.

Arsis - A Celebration Of Guilt (2004)






Track listing :

1. The Face of My Innocence 05:33
2. Maddening Disdain 03:30
3. Seven Whispers Fell Silent 03:46
4. Return 04:42

9. The Sadistic Motives Behind Bereavement Letters 04:25
10. Looking to Nothing 03:22
11. Wholly Night 04:20

Total playing time 44:20


This is without a doubt the best album Arsis have put out to date. Thrashy, technical melodic death metal. If you know Arsis and never heard this you might end up with a different point of view regarding this awesome band. Tracks 5,6 and 7 are my favorite, and probably the best Arsis songs. Enjoy.

Antaeus - Blood Libels (2006)


















Not so long ago, I knew absolutely nothing about black metal and held similar views to many I’ve seen around the group “lack of variation, production sounds like it was recorded in a tin can, boring riffs, ect.” Well, and then I gave “Blood Libels” a spin and it surprised the hell out of me how this genre so misunderstood by myself can be so awesome and extreme. Blood Libels remains just as crushing now that I’ve dabbled in a good deal of black metal and understand the sound being conveyed. I recommend this album to ANYONE that has a taste for extreme music, whether they like black metal or not.

Sadistic Intent - Ancient Black Earth (2007)



















Sadistic Intent is a death metal band from California that has been a staple of the underground since 1987. This is a compilation that contains the "Ancient Black Earth" EP (tracks 1 - 3), the "Resurrection" EP (tracks 6 - 11), and three covers (Slayer, Possessed, Celtic Frost). For fans of Possessed, Morbid Angel, The Chasm, Mortem, Pentacle, Venom, (early) Bathory, (early) Sepultura, Kreator, Sacrifice (can), Slaughter, etc. etc. If you like any of those bands, then Sadistic Intent is definitely right up your alley. Along with Mortem, The Chasm, Arghoslent, Necros Christos, and Pentacle, they have been one of the only death metal bands still around who have been able to recreate the sound and atmosphere of death metal in a unique way that is still heavily indebted to, and has not lost touch with, the true ancient spirit of the music.

Belphegor - Bondage Goat Zombie (2008)


1) Bondage Goat Zombie
2) Stigma Diabolicum
3) Armageddon's Raid
4) Justine: Soaked in Blood
5) Sexditator Lucifer
6) Shred For Sathan
7) Chronicles of Crime
8) The Sukkubus Lustrate
9) Der Rutenmarsch

BOOOOOOONNNDDDAAAAAAAAAAAGE!

Belphegor is known for mixing blackened death metal with rediculously Satanic and horny lyrics. Here's their latest album, Bondage Goat Zombie. As you can see, I'm still feeling too lazy to actually write a review. Just make sure you go crazy when track 5 comes on.

Gojira - The Way Of All Flesh (2008)



Track listings :

1. "Oroborus" - 5:21
2. "Toxic Garbage Island" - 4:06
3. "A Sight to Behold" - 5:09
4. "Yama's Messengers" - 4:03
5. "The Silver Cord" - 2:31
6. "All the Tears" - 3:41
7. "Adoration for None" - 6:19
8. "The Art of Dying" - 9:54
9. "Esoteric Surgery" - 5:44
10. "Vacuity" - 4:51
11. "Wolf Down the Earth" - 6:25
12. "The Way of All Flesh" - 17:03


Again, this is some really heavy progressive death metal. These french metalheads didn't fail to deliver after 3 years. Their 4th studio album drifts a little from their early stuff but still punchy, riffy, with good rhythms and lyrics to go along. Again, this band isn't about any guitar noodling or brutal blast beats, their arrangements are wicked good but without going over the top. Simple techniques and bone crushing drum beats make you wanna headbang infinitely. Enjoy!

Bleeding Through - Declaration (2008)


1) Finnis Fatalis Spei
2) Declaration
3) Orange County Blonde and Blue
4) Germany
5) There Was A Flood
6) French Inquisition
7) Reborn From Isolation
8) Death Anxiety
9) The Loving Memory of England
10) Beneath the Grey
11) Sellers Market
12) Sister Charlatan


Tonight we dine in Hell!

What's this? Metalcore? Maybe you want to read the group description again...Anyway, as most regulars in the group would know, Bleeding Through is a huge guilty pleasure of mine. Call me a n00b, but I was hopefully waiting for this album ever since I heard the news earlier this year. Fortunately, Bleeding Through did not disappoint. Declaration is heavier, darker, and more atmospheric than the band's previous two albums. And if that's not enough, "Finnis Fatalis Spei" contains a sample from 300.

Jeff Loomis - Zero Order Phase (2008)


















Track Listing :

01. Shouting Fire At A Funeral
02. Opulent Maelstrom
03. Jato Unit
04. Azure Haze
05. Cashmere Shiv
06. Race Against Disaster
07. Sacristy
08. Devil Theory
09. Miles of Machines
10. Departure


This is progressive instrumental melotech-thrash (I know), and it doesn't get any better. Crazy blistering leads, time signatures and flavorful arrangements with some breath taking melodies make this a must for all instrumental metal fans. Jeff Loomis might just be one of the best metal guitarists out there today. Enjoy responsibly.
