  • Latest Album Reviews
    • Maniacal – Buried In Hell

      A bland thrash album that lacks in both aggression and memorable riffage. 5/10

    • Treat – Coup De Grace

      Treat – The band name says it all, this is a Treat for melodic hard rock fans from start to finish.

    • Satoria – Where Loyalties Lie

      An interesting melodic death metal album with an extremely varied, and effective use of keys. 7/10

    • Mnemic – Sons of the System

      A groovy industrial metal album that starts out well but turns to shite by the end. 5/10

    • Aeternam – Disciples of the Unseen

      Middle Eastern inspired death metal full of crushing riffs and a somewhat original sound. 8/10
