Monachus out of the blue

PROGRESSIVE-HARDCORE. Doom, metal and crust from former ICOS members. Due to artistic differences and a potential lawsuit over their chosen name, 2009 saw the death of swedens ICOS, a band known for its crushing impassioned resonance. In the years that followed, they took the spirit of their former band and worked at creating a larger, more ominous and ultimately more considered sound. This band would become MONACHUS. Capturing an organic timbre that invokes images of these swedes toiling over beloved instruments, their debut album "out of the blue" draws influence from brooding sludge-metal, yet invokes a sense of timeless peace, surging waves of sung and groaled voices and raucous walls of guitars.

Khann Eroded

POST-HARDCORE. KHANN has an unabashed, frenetic vibe reminiscent of the un-bastardized roots of the '90s screamo genre. At its softest, there are shades of THESE ARMS ARE SNAKES and FUGAZI, and at the most intense, there are similarities to MASTODON or the cleaner moments of CONVERGE.

Raw Nerves LP


Book of Black Earth - The Cold Testament

Book of Black Earth returns with their third full length album, the Cold Testament, 8 songs confidently moving between influences ranging from Swedish death metal to nwobhm to Brazilian thrash to dbeat crust. This time around the keyboards are noticeably absent, turning it into a more guitar driven relentless massacre.

As always, Book of Black Earth features ex and current members of Skarp, Teen Cthulhu, Splatterhouse, and Samothrace.

PALA we don't exist

PROGRESSIVE-HARDCORE. PALA's debut LP is a creative recipe loaded with hypnotic echos, chaotic drumming, and outbursts of huge stoner riffs blended with delicate musical passages and topped off by three distinct vocalists. Featuring Chris Kuhns of PULLING TEETH and HATEWAVES, this is heavy music for nerds, by nerds. The style doesn't stray too far from the technical sounds of CONVERGE, KYLESA, or early MASTODON.

SERAPHIM the light in the distance

PROGRESSIVE-HARDCORE. SERAPHIM's ambitious debut LP perfectly balances super heavy, droning riffs, somber moments of experimentation and vocals that go from gruff to clean without ever losing their sense of melody along the same lines as early MASTODON, BARONESS, and NEUROSIS - completely epic.

PULLING TEETH funerary

PROGRESSIVE-HARDCORE. The 4th studio album from PULLING TEETH sees the band once again deliver fast, metallic hardcore with their normal dose of wailing guitar solos and guest musicianship provided by members of GEHENNA, HAYMAKER, SKIN LIKE IRON and others. PULLING TEETH showed a side of them that was previously untouched by dabbling in a more doom-like, sludge sound ala SLEEP. Their recent split with IRONS only further saw PULLING TEETH experiment with that very same sound. On "funerary", PULLING TEETH have come full circle and have made an album that goes further than simply surpassing expectations and shoots them into the realms of legends.

Morne Asylum

PROGRESSIVE-HARDCORE/METAL. Entitled "asylum", this Boston contingent have been known (in their somewhat-short career) to create some of the heaviest, most absorbing, and overwhelming sounds in heavy music. Sounds that mirror the vibe bands like NEUROSIS had back in their "souls at zero" days. It didnt take long for MORNE to become a notable force within the modern-day crust and hardcore-punk movement. Nonetheless, "asylum" is MORNE's heaviest, most atmospheric and cinematic sonic offering to date. While still maintaining the bands crust, hardcore, and post-metal leanings, "asylum" sees the band delve more into genres such as progressive-metal and prog-rock.

mnttaB - Vaphorizer EP


The follow up to last years "shiny stones and Miracles" is a 3 track affair which sees the melbourne based collectives songs nudging past the 3 minute mark for the first time ever into epic rock anthem territory. or not....

Lead track "bad things" is a floor rattling slice of death-disco, "grayscaled" introduces suffolks queen of grime Elloise Battles on vocals and the third track "we who waste" is another of the signature arhythmic, discordant core dumps that the mnttaB reputation rests on.

WEEKEND NACHOS worthless


POWER-VIOLENCE. On "worthless", WEEKEND NACHOS display some of the most technical, thrashing moments of unadulterated power-violence, as well as the thickest, most crushing riffs heard from them yet. What makes them even better is the schizophrenic weaving of these 2 styles that the group so swiftly pulls off. Some tracks demonstrate this with perfection, transitioning unexpectedly from ominous guitar chugs into a fast array of d-beats and a mix of high-pitched screams and classic WEEKEND NACHOS vocals.
