Oubliette – Eternity Whispers
“Eternity Whispers” is a powerful album, showing a lot of flexibility and experimentation to take the groundwork of black metal and rework it for an entirely different emotional payoff.
Albums
Latest
Haven of Echoes – Memento Vivere
I found it difficult to select my favourite tracks on this album because they are all excellent. So, I just picked the two longest ones, because you get more bang for your buck with those! When I reviewed their first album, I scored it 9/10 but this one is getting a 10.
Oceans of Slumber – Where Gods Fear to Speak
This album is definitely going to be in my album of the year contenders list as I cannot fault it in any way. I don’t dish out full marks very often, but I have no option but to do so in this case. I have a new band to follow, and they have a new fan.
Leprous – Melodies of Atonement
With the new album, “Melodies of Atonement”, the band from Norway offers an unmistakable Leprous experience – and it’s the one you want to dive into.
Vale of Pnath – Between The Worlds of Life and Death
The barrage of blasting on the drums and running nature of the guitar riffs is technical enough to have the nerds satisfied, while the hostile, corrosive sound and evil chord progressions always keep the portals to hell open for those more ritualistically inclined.

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?
Leprous – Malina & Pitfalls Weekend (Feb 20-21)

Fleshgod Apocalypse – Live at Bloom Studio
