  • The Black Dahlia Murder “Unhallowed”

    The Black Dahlia Murder is a melodic death act that gets its name from an infamous murder of a wannabe actress that occurred in Hollywood during the late 40’s. The murder consisted of the physical investigation and the paperwork; musically this American take on the Gothenburg scene is comparable to one of those elements. The [...]

  • The Black Dahlia Murder “Miasma”

    Oh for Christ’s sake, what is this shit? Ladies and gentlemen, I present the new The Black Dahlia Murder album. On The Black Dahlia Murder’s last effort, Unhallowed, the band ripped off lesser At the Gates riffs a good deal of the time and combined some Americanization to give it the distinct sound of actually [...]

  • Kataklysm “Victims Of This Fallen World”

    Much has changed since the release of the band’s last full-length LP in 1996 entitled Temple Of Knowledge. The disgruntled band parted ways with German record label Nuclear Blast, grisly bear vocalist Sylvain Houde left the band to pursue other musical interests, drummer Nick Miller left to join Anal Blast and was replaced by [...]

  • Isle Of Man “Breathe Plastic”

    The sad part about metalcore is that of all their bands there are only two good acts: The Red Chord and Ephel Duath. The more pathetic part about that is that the former isn’t actually metalcore- they’re commonly mistaken for it, but they’re not- and the latter is only metalcore by a technicality. Thus, as [...]

  • Job for a Cowboy “Genesis”

    Well, this is certainly unexpected. In fact, this was basically a giant kick to my balls. I remember a couple years or so back, I repeatedly got friend requests from Job for a Cowboy over MySpace. I gave the music from their EP Doom a listen and it was extremely piss-poor, trendy deathcore crap. So [...]

  • Despised Icon “The Healing Process”

    Finally, I’ve heard a metalcore band that doesn’t just stick to the same bullshit formula. Or is Despised Icon a death metal band that decided to add metalcore into their sound? Well, genre bickering aside, this Canadian band is kicking my ass with their latest release, The Healing Process. All but gone [...]

  • Desensitised & Peach Her “Split”

    The first release I reviewed on Grodhaisn Productions was the amazing Hell Unleashed from the Czech Republic’s Destroying Divinity. After such an excellent introduction to the label, my expectations were high for the next album they sent my way, the split between Holland’s Desensitised and France’s Peach Her. I shouldn’t have raised my [...]

  • Bodies In The Gears Of The Apparatus & Despised Icon “Split”

    Ever since I heard Bodies In The Gears Of The Apparatus‘ and Despised Icon’s respective first releases last year, I have anxiously awaited what they were going to put out next. BITGOTA’s Simian Hybrid Prototype showed an amazing range of grindcore promise, but the songs occasionally came out unfulfilling and the insanely overabundant usage of [...]

  • Beneath the Massacre “Mechanics Of Dysfunction”

    Having never heard this Montreal-based death metal act before, I wasn’t sure what to expect from their debut full length Mechanics Of Dysfunction, so I did some searching around the interweb to find out what I could about the band. Judging by the reviews of their Evidence Of Inequity EP, it seems as though Beneath [...]

  • Beneath The Massacre “Evidence Of Inequity”

    I’m not too big a fan of this deathcore style that’s becoming more and more prevalent. Take for example Despised Icon: their initial Consumed by Your Poison was a very brutal, technical slab of death metal whose metalcore tendencies didn’t overshadow the better parts of the brutal death metal. Then it all fell apart on [...]
