KRUSHHAMMERBlood, Violence & Blasphemy Helldprod (2022)Rating: 7/10 In 2019 this Brazilian act released an EP entitled Speed Blacking Hell, and that’s all you need to know. Nodding to the first barbaric wave of nasty South American metal, the Belo Horizonte-based band continues its perverse pummelling by way of this 28 minute blitzkrieg. Blood, Violence & […]
HORRID SIGHTEvil Made Flesh Self-released (2022)Rating: 8/10 Rising from Mexico City, Horrid Sight are the latest upstarts to delve into the death / thrash pool. These youngsters – Charlie Zambrano (vocals and bass), Néstor Ledesma (guitar and backing vocals) and Rafael Carranza (drums) – have already released two EPs this year so I was interested […]

ILLUSIONBorn In Technology Self-released (2022)Rating: 7/10 From Norway to Japan there have been plenty of bands named Illusion, and you can now add this Catalonia act to the list. This nine-track debut full-length opus is a fine thrash metal exhibition drenched in crisp riffage and speedy designs. Vocally, there’s a hint of Metallica’s James Hetfield […]
TERRÖRHAMMERGateways To Hades Osmose Productions (2022)Rating: 7.5/10 It’s good to see these Serbian Satanists finally get round to unleashing their second full-length studio album. After all, it’s been seven years since 2015 debut platter Under The Holy Command. The Terrörhammer sound is still that nihilistic blend of black metal and ripping thrash yet circa Accept, […]
PURSUITLoose Lips Self-released (2022)Rating: 7.5/10 The crappy album title doesn’t really do this 80s throwback justice as Leipzig’s Pursuit emerges from the shadows like some previously forgotten Euro metal outfit shelved for decades, but back with a bite. It’s always good to hear bands nodding towards the great halcyon era of metal, and while a […]
FUNERAL FOG13th Moon Ancient Temple Recordings (2022)Rating: 8/10 With the darker night’s drawing in and frost tapping on the window it seems only right that grim black metal should be the soundtrack to such a season.
