Here’s to a band with an (alleged) understanding that traditional Swedeath will be a difficult sell to an audience conditioned on too much Rogga Johansson1 and little else. So, Sarcasm gave their offering a little push to move outside of the confines of THAT Swedish brand of metal. To get a breath of fresh air and some room to maneuver, I reckon. And who can blame them? The aforementioned genre itself is sadly overcrowded and is fraught with – norms after all.

So, let Lifeforce Omnibound shine its sickly light unto us measly dwellers of the metalverse and teach … [...] Click to raid more!

Arroganz - Death Doom Punks - Album Cover

Didn’t we already encounter some bastardly punkfaces earlier this year? We indeed did. Wolfbastard hail from the windy island in the North Sea, though, whereas here we got ourselves brutal German fare. Straight Teutonic power. Relentless and brutal.

What piqued our attention, though, was the weirdly similar album names. The former called their concoction Satanic Scum Punks, whereas Arroganz here had theirs down as Death Doom Punks.

Thus, let … [...] Click to raid more!

But sometimes, just sometimes, this crew yearns for something predictable. For feisty riffs and thundering drums rumbling over our stomachs and rough-hewn growls trying to rip our ears off our vibrating skulls. Let the terrible power of Death Metal shower us with metal shards and burn … [...] Click to raid more!

Archspire - Too Fast To Die - Album Cover

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!
