Cult Of Fire - The One, Who Is Made Of Smoke

 

Genre: Black
Country: Czech. Rep.
Year: 2025

1. Loss
2. Mourning
3. Anger
4. Dhoom
5. Blessing
6. Joy
7. There Is More To Lose

5th album by Cult Of Fire. It is definitely a grower, the hypnotic qualities becoming more apparent each time yet it still can be something of a disappointment on initial listens. This is still not up to the best that we hope to hear from Cult of Fire but remains a solid enough listen in its own right, and for those of you who match the band's intensity and focus, a compelling experience.

5th album by Beleriand. Atmospheric black metal at its finest. Shrieks, post-metal moments, clean vocals, acoustic parts, folkish influences. A little bit cheesy, but always entertaining and trippy!

1. Black Star
2. Corridors Of Chaos
3. Sabbath Bloody Sabbath (Black Sabbath cover)
4. Forever My Queen (Pentagram cover)

4-track 'Ep by Candlemass. Two new songs, two cover songs, and yet more great riffs from the tireless mind of Leif Edling, 'Black Star' may be a simple stopgap release, but it's a really good one.

3rd album by Achelous. Picking up where the last album, 'The Icewind Chronicles', left off, Achelous gets right to it, doling out mighty riffs with an absolutely crushing guitar tone.

5. Deathevokation (Dismember cover)

5-track 'Ep by Haemorrhage. This 'Ep is full-blast, in-your-face death/grind full of buzzing guitars delivering some razor-sharp riffage with some surprisingly catchy drum work. The vocals are a blend of growls and chipmunky vocals (with the growls taking centre stage) that bounce along the music like a well-fitted glove.

Cadaver - Hymns Of Misanthropy

 

Genre: Death
Country: Norway
Year: 2025

5. From The Past
6. Breaking Through
7. Misanthropic Anthem
8. Death Has To Wait
9. Through The Pain
10. Drowned In Dreams

7th album by Cadaver. Ten punishingly brutal tracks push the limits of death metal, with a hint of black metal, offering both nostalgia and a fresh assault on the senses. This is not a new album per se, but rather an unreleased album from 1991 or so, with some former band members joining to rework and complete it. It sounds more experimental, with sounds and melodies that you wouldn't normally expect in the genre.
