Great lineup, but it seems it's not enough to create something huge. A solid but also generic death metal release.

Although there are still some black metal elements in their sound, those are less compared to their earlier releases. Moreover, they have added some electronic sounds, as well. Overall, it’s a pretty good album, with decent production and worth hearing from fans of the genre.

3rd album by Nonexist, the project featuring Johan Reinholdz (Andromeda, Skyfire) and Johan Liiva (ex-Hearse, ex-Arch Enemy). Here you'll find some fine ideas of melodic death metal filled with keyboards and progressive moments. The weak production and the absence of human drummer, though, hurts the whole result.

2. Total Metal
3. Satan Is Back
4. Powertrip
5. Sinner’s Possession
6. Belial’s Curse
7. Rot In Shreds
8. Omen Of The Beast





The 3rd album by Deathhammer, continues where their previous album, 'Onward To The Pits', left off. There is more variety to be heard here than on their previous release with primitive and energetic guitarwork. The guitars are crunched up more tightly and sound more toasted.

Coffins - Craving To Eternal Slumber 'Ep


Genre: Death/Doom
Country: Japan
Year: 2015



1. Hatred Storm
2. Tyrant
3. Craving To Eternal Slumber
4. Stairway To Torment
5. An Obscure Pain
6. Decapitated Crawl








6-track 'Ep by Coffins. Even now, that the band has left behind its mere underground nature and has joined a rather big label, it does not compromise on its sound. The sound is completely rotten, the band delivers a heavy dose of sludge/crust, the doom hints that thrived in previous releases seem to have been somewhat pushed to the background here.

9. No Sign Of Glory





2nd album by Blazon Stone. We have a new singer here, whose delivery fits more with the music. The music is a tribute and homage to Running Wild, with cool riffs and anthem-like choruses. Most of the songs are way better than anything Running Wild has released the past years.

4. Only Skin
5. When Night Leaves Again

9. The Sleep Of Rust




5th album by An Autumn For Crippled Children. Over time the band has drifted further and further away from the depressive underground into the modern realms of post black metal shoegazing. Synths have a major part in their music and the production is perfectly fit, creating a unique and depressive atmosphere.

2nd album by Tornado. This is an easy, quick (10 song in 37 minutes) and fun listening, with up tempos and a lot of catchy parts. The member’s musicianship is of high level, but without showing off! Without major flaws, at least for a thrash metal fan, the album will satisfy the listener.
