Escarion - Pillars Of The Faith

I listened very happy to this "Pillars Of The Faith", the first official album for Escarion, unfortunately unknown band from Melbourne. Released as a self-produced album, the four guys are able to expertly mix European and American sounds. "Pillars Of The Faith" is an investigation of the human psyche, contrasted with the idea of the 'The Seven...

Malfested - Shallow Graves

Debut EP for this new Belgian line-up Malfested that comes with an excellent product called "Shallow Graves". 6 songs ranging from classic to more modern death metal. Clear influences that recall bands such as Bloodbath and Carnation but which fortunately manage to range over even softer and more melodic territories that make the work much more...

Pneuma Hagion - Voidgazer

Unfortunately, this name of the Pneuma Hagion is unknown to me; infernal creature created by the mysterious "R" who since the beginning of its incarnation (2015) deals with all the tools. Only in 2019 he is be joined by the one who still resists today as a drummer. 5 years.. 3 demos, 2 splits, an EP, a compilation released in 2018 (I think it conta...

Panssarituho - Demo

Practically, at least for me, these Panssarituho are totally unknown... This is a metal band from Finland. I think this demo is their first work ever and with the three songs they present themselves to the metal people with all their violence. Here we talk about death metal combined with multiple influences but all attributable to the good old s...
