Alkaloid – Numen

On top of the fact that it is excellently put together as a modern death metal album, “Numen” might also be one of the most diverse and multi-faceted extreme metal releases I’ve come across!

Tegmentum – Evolvement

Obsidian Tide grand crescendo

Obsidian Tide – The Grand Crescendo

Dive into a spectacular work of cinematic progressive metal, highly recommended for listeners with an appreciation for strong dynamics and a sufficient attention span.

Of Virtue – Omen

Even if you are not a fan of metalcore you might find yourself warming to this band. The aggression that inevitably comes with the genre is tempered by the melodic elements running through the album.

Psygnosis – Mercury

This is an album to listen to when you are relaxed, preferably with your favourite tipple and with the lights dimmed. Just let the soundscape wash over you and take you to the far reaches of the Solar System
