Anciients – Voice Of The Void Review
You’d have to forgive Vancouver’s Anciients for falling slightly short of the mark with their 2013 LP, Heart of Oak. With only one — albeit excellent — EP under their belt and thriving on their high energy live …
Imperium Dekadenz – Dis Manibvs Review
Over the past decade or so, Germany’s Imperium Dekadenz has slowly but surely grown from somewhat humble (but still quality) origins into one of the best bands in the melodic, melancholy black metal field. Their …

Rotting Christ – Rituals Review
Given that heavy metal as a discrete set of sounds and practices has been around for roughy as long as the duration of the Cold War, the casual music fan can be forgiven for assuming …
