Sarke is a feisty one. Created by the man himself and fueled by Nocturno Culto of Darkthrone, this outfit is one of the quirkiest the RMR crew encountered in this metal multiverse of ours. And that means we’re all ears whenever the band lets loose with a new record.

Allsighr didn’t talk to us at first. But in time, the quirky ways of Sarke got into our metal bloodstream and took hold like one of those sneaky viruses. And Nocturno snarkily croaking ‘allsighr’ a felt every five seconds made it bounce about our mutual heads for way too long.1… [...] Click to raid more!

Sidus Atrum. The band that astonished the hell out of us back in 2022 when Spiral of Life suddenly hit our review pipe. The RMR crew was smitten right away by the elegant arrangement and pretty neat songwriting on offer. And, the piece made it onto the 2022 Top 10 Records. Deservedly so.

Meanwhile, a full-fledged shooting war ensued between Russia and the band’s home country Ukraine. And it’s, by the time of writing this review, still raging full-throttle. Sidus Atrum‘s 3rd full-length record Розірване Небо (Torn Sky) understandably instrumentalizes that war and the tribulation that goes … [...] Click to raid more!

I vaguely remember Ba’al‘s Ellipsism floating by on the now-defunct Clobber Records in 2020. But – sadly – the time wasn’t right for their enigmatic wares four years back and we gave the record a pass. And, perhaps, we shouldn’t have done that. But then, hindsight is always 20/20, right?

So, the other day, the RMR Deck Crew got ahold of the band’s new EP Soft Eyes. Especially Ba’al‘s insistence on Blackened Post Metal and visions of those funky wares on offer these days got our curiosity going.

Well, Ba’al‘s style is still as enigmatic as … [...] Click to raid more!

Do you know why I like myself a session with Leonard Cohen from time to time? Because this long-departed artist exudes a calm and welcome respite from the hectic search-and-review missions across all those metal genres out there. His age-old records offer some private time of respite and introspection. Something we should have more of in these dangerous times.

Now, Cohen’s style might sound somewhat similar to some of Dark Folk outfits on this zine. Some of the more ethereal pieces of similar ilk firmly had their stakes in Black Metal before and suddenly feel the need to call upon … [...] Click to raid more!
