Attention metalverse!! We got ourselves yet another case of nomen est omen in Extreme Metal. Archspire are back with a new red-hot item called Too Fast To Die, the successor to Bleed The Future1 from ’21. And boasting a moniker reeking of staleness that sounds so James Bond, you wanna throw up into a bucket.

But, this new piece may very well prove prophetic in more ways than one. So, fasten your seatbelt, speed will be of the essence this time and those traffic fines be damned.

One thing is clear, Inferi just grew themselves some competition. And … [...] Click to raid more!

In Memoriam artfully circumvented that black reef lurking just beyond sophomore’s reach by doing some improved more of the same. That was back in 2023. Since then, not a peep from the feisty Swedish trio hit our mighty detection radars over at the RMR Review Desk.

And besides, Black Metal starts to grow stale with their ever-returning daemonic schemes and stolen rituals, stemming from ancient books
