Cryptopsy - An Insatiable Violence - Album Cover

Brutally effective Death Metal had a difficult stand over here this year. And bands going beyond that with outstanding skills and a nuclear determination to get there were nonexistent. True, the reasonably feisty Castrator grated on our turntables this year. But we also got more tepid, sewage-infested material, and more of that than we ever wished.

The Canadians from Cryptopsy landed in the unsavory, noisome catacombs of our review pipe back in early 2025. Not something the RMR crew readily enjoys when beach-time starts winking at ye and summer’s on its way. Especially when a piece calls itself An … [...] Click to raid more!

Unctuous stonerware was oozing out of our loudspeakers back in 2021. Suncraft was the outfit’s name, a band totally unknown to the RMR crew. And for cause. Flat Earth Rider, their debut album, sounded like something concocted in one of Cirkus Prütz‘ abandoned giant tents in cahoots with some hidden weed producer. Allegedly. And that gave us hope for moar of that good ol’ bluesy stoner sound. Much moar and blended with harsher soundbites whenever the occasion required it.

Suncraft just returned to the stage with their sophomore piece, Welcome to the Coven. But wait, what? Where … [...] Click to raid more!

Is it spring yet? There is lust in the air, so much lust. But don’t get your hopes up, RMR didn’t just team up with PornHub. Instead, this is all about – Lust of Decay. That’s right. Lewd putrescence and salacious, festering degradation on steroids. And true to form, the band has a history of dispersing such nasty atrocities.

The RMR crew just covered a hapless blackened doom piece showing us the wanton pathways to certain damnation. If you don’t follow the script of the nailed god, that is. But, what ever happened to all those bodies this process … [...] Click to raid more!

We weren’t on time to catch the last spaceship leaving for the galaxy. Our review for Tiit, Sun of the Suns‘ latest exploration drive, roared out of our gates a few months later than it should have. And more’s the pity, because this was excellent and brutal fantasy fare for a debut album.

Now, this time, this ain’t happening. Launch pads are ready yet again, and the wow-signals from the Oort Cloud or something are firing up the juices of them space crews. A lot is going on in the sparsely populated vacuum, and we’re wondering if Entanglement… [...] Click to raid more!
