Inferi – Heaven Wept (2026) – Review

Inferi - Heaven Wept - Album Cover

Hell’s calling. Sounds about right these days, doesn’t it? Inferi, meaning hell in Italian and kind of the same in Latin, the band called their outfit, first seen around these parts in 2006. And yes, I heard the theories that the band moniker derives from some Harry Potter fantasy. And if true, they need to grow up. But otherwise, ’tis yet another long-standing metal band that eluded the RMR crew for long years.

There goes Archspire was the RMR crew’s first mutual thought when Heaven Wept led off into the metallic yonder. And we weren’t all that wrong with … [...] Click to raid more!

Obscurity – Ascheregen (2026) – Review

Obscurity - Ascheregen - Album Cover

Trollzorn Records are always good for a metal surprise or two. In 2025, they steadily fed us German underground fare and landed two hits onto our roster, Bergthron and Thorondir.

So, here the lazy geezers at the Review Desk were browsing through ‘old’ records, unfinished drafts, and lost ideas.

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!
