  • Coffins “Buried Death”

    Crushing Japanese death doom metallers Coffins are back with their third full length release, Buried Death, after a series of successful split offerings with a number of extreme metal acts. The first full length solo offering by Coffins in two years is a punishing effort, containing 44 minutes of soul draining, head crushing, rib shattering [...]

  • Infernal Revulsion “Devastate Under Hallucination”

    Hey, this could be the start of something beautiful. Slow and creeping this intro is, making me wonder what this Osaka band has in store for me. Well that transition from the intro to "Deep Down Human Being" sucked, but this second track isn’t too shabby at all. Everything is up front and right in [...]

  • XXX Maniak & Coffins “The Cracks Of Doom”

    Usually, when two bands collaborate on a split release, both bands are similar in style, or at the very least within the same genre of music. Not so for this split as Philadelphia based blasting drum machine-backed death grinders XXX Maniak team up with the Japanese kings of slow crawling doom Coffins in what [...]

  • Boris “Pink”

    Any reference to “pink” in the minds of most people into underground metal might obviously point to a beloved part of the female genitalia. Here, it may be a reference to the piece of skin that connects the male bag to the rim. Boris have enlightened the world with a disc that fills the void [...]

  • Swarrrm “Nise Kyuseishu Domo (Thee Imitation Messiahs)”

    I’ve been blown away the past couple years by the astounding quality of extreme music coming from Asia and more specifically Japan, where Swarrrm are based. Swarrrm is a band that is hard to categorize, which is something I love and look for in bands. They mix elements of grind, hardcore, vocals that [...]

  • Swarrrm “Black Bong”

    The first time I listened to Japanese lunatic grindsters Swarrrm was on their second album Nise Kyuseishu Dom. The style of grind they played was an amazing blend of harsh grindcore, crust elements, and a mixture of other various musical experimenting not unlike Sigh or Cephalic Carnage in their more unusual moments. To top it [...]
