GRUZJA – KONIEC WAKACJI
Gruzja is a metal band from Poland, usually classified as black-metal but which sound crosses so many stylistic boundaries that I feel the sticker is too narrow to do justice to what they’re offering here. I heard about the band around the time they released their split with the Russian unit Neon Scaffold (sick band... Continue Reading →
MOESSACRE REX ISN’T DEAD! WELL, NOT TOTALLY….
Hello everyone! It's a long time I didn't post anything around here. A long hiatus due to, again, mental health issues, but also life that got in the way. As you noticed, the label also has not released anything for a while. I would like to give a honest explanation about why : I did... Continue Reading →
FORMLESS MASS – Invalide (Edgewood Arsenal Records)
Here we are in front of a pretty incredible album if you're into drone, noise, power electronics and the likes!

CEMENT TEA – Tricks, More Tricks and Even More Tricks
Well, here goes a Cement Tea release again. I don't know how this man manages to churn out so many quality releases. This one is the latest and, from what I've thrown an ear to so far, my favorite! This one has a very "progressive" tone , not in the prog rock meaning of it,... Continue Reading →

For a first, it's quite monumental.The band delivers us an album that conveys a very coherent atmosphere without sacrificing anything regarding brutality. Furious and dark as the void of space,...

SKELETON OF GOD – Primordial Dominion (Burning Dogma Records)
For once Facebook ad didn't disappoint. The trippy / esoteric artwork drew my attention and I decided to give this album a chance. Boy, am I glad I did! This is one of the best releases I had the chance to encounter this year! The first short introductory track directly shows that we're in for... Continue Reading →
ENTRE VIFS / L’eCLIPSE NUE – L’Eclipse Vive (AUSSAAT)
This split between the French "Entre Vifs" and the US "L'eclipse Nue" is one of these noise releases I enjoyed the most this year. It seems both decided to go for a quite "homogenic" style. It is not that easy to distinguish which track is from which artist if one does not pay attention to... Continue Reading →
