3rd album by Extinction A.D.. 'Culture of Violence' feels like a glorious throwback with a modern set of rules. Fusing together hardcore energy, death metal brutality, classic heavy metal guitar pyrotechnics and all of the lessons thrash has learned in 30-plus years, and you’ve got Extinction A.D. nailed down.

Second installment “二度目の災害” (‘second disaster’) from the enigmatic black metal entity Arkhtinn takes us on a dark voyage into the cold dead space. The band provides a cosmic sense of the palpable atmosphere creating a brooding mood for the listener with the use of electronic samples combined with the oppressive percussion and rhythm guitars adding immense sensibility to the growing atmosphere of the music transcends in the sonic realm of cosmic black metal.

15th album by Voivod. The album’s mad sonic assault may not be to everyone’s taste, but those who do not mind being challenged and pushed beyond conventional music borders should look no further. The band's constant creativity is well-intact, they can honor their own history while forging ever further into the sparkling black depths of space metal.

4th album by Lawnmower Deth, 28 years after their last one! Other than the more modern production, it sounds straight out of the late '80s/early '90s thrash era, and it embraces the skate punk vibe that Lawnmower Deth picked up later on too.

Its eight songs are a perfect blend of 90s black metal, viking epicness, cinematic atmospheres, sophisticated arrangements, and gorgeous melodies imbued of dark melancholy.

5-track 'Ep by Crom. Two brand new songs of pure epic heavy metal and three emotional acoustic tracks. With his use of choirs, epic arrangements, skilful transitions, and stirring melodies, Grosse is able to conjure up images of mighty warriors and lost loves; epic struggles and tragic personal losses; despair and ultimate salvation.

Debut album by Olde Throne. Featuring a very vicious pace and sinister atmospherics, this black metal album brings back memories of the early days of Emperor, Enslaved and Immortal. The album is described as “a tribute to the tragedy of the great famine in Ireland from 1845 to 1852”, during which “more than 1 million people died from starvation and disease”.

5-track 'Ep by Angkor Wat, 31 years after their last studio album! The group still has it, delivering fresh staff by combining thrash with hardcore and industrial elements. Their trademarks, like the vocals being behind a filter of distortion, are still intact. A nice surprise that came out of nowhere!

It is a masterfully crafted mini-Ep, acknowledging the roots of the band, whilst progressing further and refining that atmospheric sound which captivates and absorbs the listener.

5-track 'Ep by Vio-lence, 29 years after their last album. All five tracks of 'Let The World Burn' shred through everything we loved about the Bay Area scene. Each track is a whirlwind of riffs and solos that combine the ferocity of the '80s Bay Area with the sonic advancements of the 2020s.

2nd album by Eliminator. If anyone was looking to find a band that plays an alloy of the best bands of NWOBHM in a more modern version, this band is definitely Eliminator. The album differs considerably in strength and speed with more aggressive, dynamic vocals and long-lasting solos, from the most melodic and heavy but equally impressive debut 'Last horizon'.

6th album by Hammers Of Misfortune. In this release they mix the idiosyncratic classic side of Peter Gabriel’s Genesis and the atmospheric power of Pink Floyd with a bunch of metal styles (from speed, thrash to power and epic heavy metal) in one consistent offering. Essential listening for those looking for adventurous music mixing the genres effortlessly but without restraints.

23rd album by Saxon. Seemingly unable to write a bad album even if their lives depended on it, Saxon deliver the goods once again. 'Carpe Diem' is my favorite album of theirs since 1997s 'Unleash The Beast', and it’s everything I want in a traditional metal platter.

1. Santa Hipocresía
2. Maldición Del Alma
3. False Prophet
4. Morboso
4-track 'Ep by Rat King. They combine the two styles like a parasite and host, interweaving busts of grindcore into their death metal. The result of that is an artillery shelling of percussive battery with a clean crisp drum sound and razor sharp barbed riffs galore from start to finish.
