First Fragment – Gloire éternelle
I would not be surprised if “Gloire éternelle” would go down in history as a timeless symbol of the genre and a testament for the highest reaches of human potential.

Inferi – Vile Genesis
When you put together the technique, complexity, epic melodies and infernal oppressive aura, it sounds like “Vile Genesis” might just be 2021’s most evil album.

Dessiderium – Aria
After a stream of the full-length I was easily convinced that this project refuses genre boundaries and taps into many different faces of extreme metal, as well as some other influences.

Obscura – A Valediction
“A Valediction” is a total nerd-fest for the tech maniac but also engaging enough to keep the average metal listener interested.
Read More
Archspire – Bleed the Future
“Bleed the Future” is obviously not for everyone, but for those who like their music technical and extreme, it is undoubtedly one of the most important releases of the year.

Devil’s Reef – A Whisper From The Cosmos
This EP surely impressed me. It is only 5-tracks but with these songs they managed to create something unique, creative and genre-bending enough to stand-out even among The Artisan Era’s roster.
Read More
The Agonist – Days Before The World Wept
The outpour of extremity, technical proficiency and unexpected rhythmic shifts that they bring forth on this release is unlike anything they’ve ever done.
Read More
Persona – Animal
It keeps the energy levels up almost all the way through, and flashes off fiery technicality in an elegant way that doesn’t distract from the energy and feel of the music.
Read More
Monochromatic Black – Vicissitude
While their first release shined more on the uplifting and triumphant side, this one is a theatrical descent into the macabre and a torturous struggle for liberation.
Read More
Within Progress – Inner
“Inner” is an album that you can fully sink into and get lost in the emotions and atmospheres it creates.
Read More
Spiritbox – Eternal Blue
This album maintains many of the elements that Spiritbox have displayed on previous releases, but also brings a lot of fresh new ideas and creativity to the table.

Dear Mother – Bulletproof
This band will somehow maintain their signature sound while making each song into an entirely different experience.

Chaos over Cosmos – The Silver Lining Between the Stars
“The Silver Lining Between the Stars” sees the strongest and most eccentric but also the most mature version of Chaos over Cosmos thus far.
Read More
Dark Horse White Horse – Dark Horse White Horse
It’s metal enough to set against your neighbors, dramatic enough to be performed on an Opera stage and experimental enough to bend genres just about enough to avoid being boxed into any category.

Scardust – Breaking The Ice – Live Stream Show
Israeli progressive metal band Scardust have recently gone through a line-up change and what better way can there be to welcome the new members to the group if not through a live show?

Heyoka’s Mirror – The Uninvited King
For a debut record, this is quite impressive, and despite it not falling into all of my preferences genre-wise, it still made a positive impression on me.

No Terror in The Bang – Eclosion
If there’s one thing to reap out of a sitting through this album, it’s a particularly bad attitude and all the gnarly cathartic feels that come along with it.
Read More
Compile – Reaching
The sound is very unique, very eclectic and the level of musicianship is off the charts, yet it is not a show-off album, but a beautiful, captivating and melodic one.
Read More
Mechina – Siege
The mix of cyber-technical and industrial metal with the epic atmospheric and melodic elements is a superb recipe.
Read More
For Giants – There, There
Like the title suggests, the album has a very comforting feel. I’d describe the mood as similar to that of a friend trying to cheer you up.
