Recenzja The Ruins of Megiddo „Siedem Dni Gniewu”

 The Ruins of Megiddo

„Siedem Dni Gniewu”

Black Flame Rebellion 2026

The Ruins of Megiddo to projekt poboczny kogoś z Hekatomb. Wstępnie miała to być chyba informacja niejawna, ale i tak szybko stała się tajemnicą poliszynela. Zresztą co to za różnica, skoro i tak nie ma oficjalnego info co do składu twórców „Korosty”. Dlaczego zatem o tym wspominam? Bo jednak, mimo wszystko, pewne podobieństwa między oboma tworami bystre ucho skauta jest w stanie wyłapać. (Czytaj dalej...)

Recenzja Dauþuz „Todeswerk: Uranium II”

 Dauþuz

„Todeswerk: Uranium II”

Amor Fati 2026

Na nowym albumie Dauþuz kontynuuje swoje górnicze opowieści, wykorzystując do tego black metalowe dźwięki. Tym razem jest to osiem utworów, które nie oferują niczego nowego, bo są płynną, kolejną odsłoną historii przedstawionej na poprzednim krążku. To tradycyjne dla tego zespołu ujęcie diabelszczyzny w dalszym ciągu oferuje muzę opartą na wzorcach z lat dziewięćdziesiątych. (Czytaj dalej...)

Nowy numer od NUCLEAR TOMB

 


Baltimore, MD's weirdo thrash stalwarts, in collaboration with Invisible Oranges, have premiered "Unbowed and Averse," the second single from forthcoming album, Epoch Inhumane. Click to stream below!


Nuclear Tomb, are back and as twisted and vicious as ever with their new full-length album Epoch Inhumane, out June 12th on Rotted Life Records! The album will be available on vinyl, cassette, CD, and digital formats.

W.M.D. zapowiadają drugi album

 


Vancouver (BC) - Canadian Thrashers W.M.D. (When Minds Develop) will release Against All Warnings, the band's second full-length album, June 5 on vinyl, CD, and digital formats.

A music video for the album's first single, "Eyes of a Killer," is available at:


The song is also available on Bandcamp, Apple Music, and Spotify

Thematically, Against All Warnings concerns the constant human need for more, where nothing ever feels good enough, and people ignore every warning sign until everything starts to collapse. The album is also a reflection of W.M.D.'s experience during the last few years: refusing to quit, getting angry at what the world really is, and trying to find their place in the middle of all of it. Every song comes from a different perspective on the chaos and pressure people are living through every day.

Track Listing:
1. Eyes Of A Killer
2. Against All Warnings
3. Kleptomania
4. The Black Expanse
5. March Of Death
6. The Thin Red Line
7. Post Human Predator
8. Already Dead
9. Painful Vengeance

Recenzja Eradikated „Wiring of Violence”

 Eradikated

„Wiring of Violence”

Indie Rec. 2026

Debiutancki krążek Szwedów, z których jeden wygląda jak kalka młodego Schuldinera, przedstawiał wam circa trzy lata temu shub niggurath. Chwilę temu Eradikated wrócili z krążkiem numer dwa. Postanowiłem zatem sprawdzić, czy mój kolega słusznie zabałtycką młodzież chwalił. Jak by tu zatem zacząć… Gówniarze to czasem jednak w starocie potrafią lepiej niż niejedne dinozaury. (Czytaj dalej...)

„Spiritual Cessation”

Hells Headbangers 2026

To już trzeci długograj w karierze tego kanadyjskiego kwartetu. Na najnowszym „Spiritual Cessation” Nocturnal Departure kontynuuje tworzenie black metalu, ale w stosunku do poprzedniego wydawnictwa, w muzykowaniu Kanadyjczyków można dostrzec pewne zmiany. (Czytaj dalej...)

EP-ka VERBA SERPENTIS do odsłuchu

 

MELODIC BLACK METAL BAND ‘VERBA SERPENTIS’ RELEASE EP ‘TORCHBEARERS’
(Listen on Spotify)

Melodic black metal band VERBA SERPENTIS release their new EP ‘TORCHBEARERS.’ The EP further advances their sound into the abyss, offering a more refined and expansive approach. The band’s hostile tendencies and atmospheric elements will draw listeners into a bleak but hypnotic mythos.
VERBA SERPENTIS formed out of the shadows of Klagenfurt, Austria, in 2024. Soon after, they released their debut EP ‘OPHIDIC GNOSIS.’ Originally formed as a duo by musicians ACHLYCET and TENEBRIS, the band reached their final form with the addition of MALPHAS and SOMNIFER. Together, the band is bound by a shared vision of transcendence through darkness.

‘TORCHBEARERS’ is both urgent and captivating, a twisted journey through dark catacombs that highlight a spiritual awakening explored through melodic aggression. The compositions flow as a unified, ritualistic expression where searing, blackened fury meets an ever-evolving force of artistic expression.

Debiutancka EP-ka DISHUMANE w sierpniu

 

Today, Blood Harvest Records announces August 7tth as the international release date for Dishumane's striking debut EP, Centurion's Demise, on CD, 12" vinyl, and cassette tape formats.

Dishumane, in their current iteration, have been a long time coming. The band was formed by guitarist James Shanks, and has been slowly-but-steadily building up over the past few years. The process was never easy, but at long last, Dishumane are ready to present their first recording, the four-song / 15-minute EP Centurion's Demise.

Their history goes back to Shanks recording songs all on his own for a couple of years under the name Sadistic Malevolence. Nothing would really come of them; however, they showed potential. Dishumane really became a reality when Shanks met drummer Dave Procopio. Procopio had a deep understanding of true death metal music, similar to Shanks: many love death metal, but to fully understand it is a rare occasion when meeting someone else. Shanks and Procopio would go on to have a meetup-and-rehearsal session in Seattle, where a Guitar Center there used to offer band practice times. They rented out the space and came up with many - and they mean many - amazing drum patterns and guitar riffs. The chemistry was perfect. Months apart would come to pass, but they would communicate daily, and both would be practicing to hone their craft. A year later, after attending an Incantation show in Amityville, New York, Shanks would make a connection with drummer Charlie Koryn, concurrently of Incantation and Ascended Dead. Shanks flew out to San Diego not long after to record Dishumane's first official EP with Koryn on drums and Chuck Sherwood (also erstwhile of Incantation) on bass.

Blood Harvest realized Dishumane's potential and signed the band immediately. The first fruit of this union is said EP, Centurion's Demise. Unrelenting, pure DEATH METAL for fans of classic '90s death and brutal death metal alike: Dishumane don't aim to reinvent the wheel so much as spin it malevolently and then CRUSH it. Aesthetic comparisons include the likes of Immolation, Morpheus Descends, Deicide, Gorgasm, and Incantation, of course - but on evidence of Centurion's Demise alone, Dishumane's forthcoming debut album will be a force to be reckoned with.

In the meantime, hear the brand-new title track "Centurion's Demise" HERE at Blood Harvest's Bandcamp. Preorder info can be found HERE. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

Demo CITRINITAS za miesiąc

 

Today, Caligari Records announces June 26th as the international release date for Citrinitas' highly anticipated second demo, Telestic Ekstasis, on cassette tape format.

At the beginning of this year, Caligari revealed Unending Descent, the public debut of Finland's Citrinitas. Mysterious to the extreme, the 13-minute demo was a multi-layered meltdown at the nexus of fucked death metal, even-more-fucked doom, and outsider black metal. Keeping that prodigious momentum going, Citrinitas quickly return with Telestic Ekstasis, their second demo. Both more approachable and more alien, Telestic Ekstasis goes all in on ghostly, garaged reverb and a penetrating pulse of soul-searing hook. It's not impossible to imagine these three songs each continuing infinitely, reverberating back in on this themselves like a black hole, so strong are their respective hooks - ominous, otherworldly, DOOMED - but ever so patient in their movement. The closing title track, in particular, perfectly captures this sensation: nearly seven minutes of stars dying, with inevitably doomed ones being born within their cosmic ashes. That the voice(s) of Citrinitas seemingly fight against this dying of the interstellar light makes Telestic Ekstasis all the more penetrating...and perverse. The enigma continues doing enigmatic things.
Unending Descent, on cassette tape format.

In the meantime, hear the brand-new track "The Infernal Hunt" HERE at Caligari's Bandcamp, where the demo can also be preordered. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

Drugi singiel z nowego REVOLTING

 


Swedish death metal maniacs REVOLTING return spewing forth their second advance single taken from their crushing tenth studio album, “Supernatural Anthems”. If the first preview already made it clear that the band was still operating like a perfectly oiled demolition machine, this new assault only reinforces it with even more filth, aggression, and viciousness.

The album will be released on June 4th through Xtreem Music on CD and digital formats, ready to unleash another lethal dose of rotten, razor-sharp, and sickeningly catchy Death Metal. No softening the blow, no losing the edge, and absolutely no intention of showing mercy: REVOLTING are back to keep spreading the rot.

Tracklist for "Supernatural Anthems" is as follows:
1. Supernatural Anthem
2. At Dusk They Rise
3. Upon the Chopping Block
4. Undead Wife, Happy Life
5. Those Who Never Lived
6. The Dead are Craving
7. Dungeon Overture
8. A Midnight Massacre
9. The End so Near

Release date for "Supernatural Anthems" will be June 4th, 2026 through Xtreem Music on CD & Digital formats.

Recenzja Bloodsoaked Necrovoid „Bloodsoaked Necrovoid”

 Bloodsoaked Necrovoid

„Bloodsoaked Necrovoid”

Iron Bonehead 2026

Przez chwilę nie było u nas nic o Bloodsoaked Necrovoid. Ale nie dlatego, że się na nich pogniewaliśmy. Zespół kilka lat po prostu milczał, a zawirowania personalne sprawiły, że lider przeniósł się do Hiszpanii, gdzie dokoptował sobie do składu dwóch nowych  muzyków (zresztą żadnych żółtodziobów, ale nie będę tu rzucał nazwami). W tak odświeżonej formie powstała dwuutoworowa EP-ka, zatytułowana po prostu „Bloodsoaked Necrovoid”. (Czytaj dalej...)

„Exolvuntur”

Malignant Voices 2026

Lubię od czasu do czasu zjeść coś gorzkiego, a że to ziele pomaga na niestrawność i wspomaga wątrobę, to tym bardziej byłem ciekawyjak smakuje Piołun z Lublina. Czy najnowsza, druga płyta tej kapeli równie dobrze działa na organizm jak jego roślinny odpowiednik? Ano, wszystko zależy od dawki, bo jak wiadomo zioła tego nie należy stosować zbyt długo, bo staje się trujące i tak też jest w przypadku „Exolvuntur”. (Czytaj dalej...)
