Review: Isolert – No Hope, No Light…Only Death

How do I begin to describe this amazing album? I struggle with this one, it's such a fantastic piece of art, by the Greek black metal band Isolert. From the get-go this quality is present, with the first track, "Intro- Doomed", where a range of different melodies come together to create a somewhat eerie, mysterious, … Continue reading Review: Isolert – No Hope, No Light…Only Death

Review: Mist of Misery – Absence

Review: Svoid – Storming Voices Of Inner Devotion

Formed in 2009 in Hungary, Svoid established their name within the black metal scene with lyrics that run heavy with themes about the occult and anti-cosmic chaos. Storming Voices of Inner Devotion may be the band’s second full-length album as a follow up to 2013’s To Never Return, but this should be hailed as another brilliant … Continue reading Review: Svoid – Storming Voices Of Inner Devotion
