Debut 'Ep by Stheno, featuring members of Bedlam and Unfit Earth. 5 tracks of crusty grindcore with a lot of black metal elements thrown in. From the beginning ''intro'' you are going to be smashed with the group's intense pace and tempo. Brutal and fast as hell, blastbeating, with dual vocal delivery and samples here and there, this is for sure a promising start!

14. Look To Windward

3rd album by Gridlink. Running at twice the length of their previous albums, there’s certainly a lot here to take in.  22 minutes of anger, hatred, joy and sorrow. Hammering blast beats, slow parts (yes! slow parts), squalling and complex guitar parts and of course Jon Chang’s piercing vocals. This, unfortunately, is declared to be their last release, fortunately, a great swansong!
