  • Scaphis – Rituals of Torture and Death

    Melbourne Death Metallers Scaphis debut album ‘Rituals of Torture and Death’ begins heavy, steady and slow with the aptly named “Death March”. Drums are the main focus with some heavy riffage over the top and end with atmospheric sounds and the...

  • Make Them Suffer – Worlds Apart

    The term ‘maturing’ gets bandied around a lot in musical circles. In the case of Perth’s Make them Suffer, it is absolutely appropriate. Approaching the decade mark in their career, and set to release their third long-player, this band...

  • Nucleust – Terra Cerebral

    These Perth lads slam out pissed-off, impactful groove-based thrash metal. Whilst purist thrash metal is kinda tired and passé these days, bands still farming this type of musical field must inject some progressiveness into their thrash to make it...

    Battlegrave is a two man thrash attack from Melbourne. Clint Patzel and Rohan Buntine have joined forces to churn out a no-nonsense brand  of metal that reflects their love of classic 80’s thrash and aggressive music in general. After listening through...

  • Dead Letter Circus – The Endless Mile

    Releasing an album of stripped back, ‘unplugged’ versions of your own pre-existing tunes can be a bit of a slippery slope, and previous efforts from other bands have been a little hit and miss. But Brissie’s favourite progressive rock...

  • In Hearts Wake – Ark

    I have seen ‘trends’ in heavy music, that the so-called ‘true’ metalheads have dismissed as being ‘flashes in the pan’, go from strength to strength and very much take their place as major ongoing staples of the worldwide heavy...

  • Voyager – Ghost Mile

    Perth’s Voyager were a band that very much forged their own distinctive musical path for the first decade plus of their career, and they put out marvellous, sumptuous progressive and power-tinged melodic metal. Something happened on their last record,...

  • El Colosso – Pathways

    Stoner rock. When it’s done well, it kinda sorta defies its name. It can be quite exhilarating, and that’s what we have here. These Melbourne boys have given us a titanic slab of pounding, fist-pumping blues-based heavy rock ‘n’...
