8.0

Album EK Even Knudsen Updated April 11, 2026 2451 1 2

I should start by noting that information on Mordkaul is surprisingly limited, but what is known is that the band hails from Belgium and was formed around a shared passion for early‑to‑mid ’90s Swedish melodic death metal. Their debut album, Dress Code: Blood, has...

Mors Principium Est now enters its third decade as a band with the release of their seventh full‑length album, fittingly titled Seven. After numerous lineup changes over the years, the group has effectively been distilled down to vocalist Ville Viljanen and British guitarist Andy...

Mors Principium Est released a couple of enjoyable albums in the early/mid 2000´s, but for some reason they haven´t received much of my attention in the later years. There´s been a few line-up changes over the years, like british guitarist Andy Gillion who joined...

Meadow’s End is a six piece band heading from Sweden and now they are back with the successor to their debut album from 2010 ‘Ode to quietus’ and what a masterpiece these guys have created. ‘The Sufferwell’ is the most innovative, and probably also...
