I'm not quite sure how to categorize the music of New York based Contrarian to be honest, but I ended up defining it as progressive death metal. The music though is definitely more in the vein of traditional progressive metal and it's not too...

Utmarken is a Swedish folk metal band fronted by singer and main composer Mathias Gyllengahm, and "Förfallstid" is their second studio album. For some reason I missed out on their debut, but I will surely check it out after having heard this masterpiece. Through...

It's been four years since the release of the brilliant 'Pinnacle Of Bedlam', by far the best Suffocation album both in terms of song material, performance and production. A follow up album has therefore been highly anticipated and now the wait is finally over...

American tech death metallers Vale Of Pnath's 2011 debut album 'The Prodigal Empire' was real masterpiece and probably my favorite death metal album that particular year, and I still play that album every now and then. Now they are back with the follow up...

It's not a big secret that I've always been a huge Vintersorg fan, and I consider every single album in their discography pure quality. With that said, I must add that the first two albums, not counting the Hedniskhjärtad EP, had this indefineable magical...
