Domovoyd - Oh Sensibility
Psychedelic Stoner Metal
Catchy grooves and trippy landscapes galore, the first full release from this Finnish four piece is definitely one of the better stoner efforts of 2013, as well as one of the best debuts. Has a very "lazy floating" type of feeling at many points, creating an atmosphere that's quite easy to fall back and get lost in. If that and the fantastic album art don't win you over, I don't know what will.
Turn on, tune in, drop out.

Good news from folk metallers Elvenking! On December 16th, the band will enter Domination Studios in San Marino to begin the recordings of the anticipated new album, the successor of Era (2012). Simone "Symohn" Morettin is going to record the drum tracks next week laying down the foundations of what the band already considers "the ultimate Elvenking manifesto". The new album is expected next year which means you won't have to wait that long. Also, the band is setting the bar very high on this one. (by Bad English) Read more ›› |

Blodsvept North America 2013, and Finntroll sure knows how to pick their support bands for this epic tour. Well, they didn't pick, but rather their booker, but nevertheless, the package worked on so many levels, with Metsatöll and Blackguard in tow. (by D.T. Metal) Read more ›› |

As the days get shorter and the air gets colder, this can only mean Damnation Festival is approaching once more. This year saw the ninth edition of the festival, and the biggest to date with Carcass leading the typically diverse line-up. Damnation Festival weekend is marked in everyone's calendar because of its tradition of bringing together the most eclectic collection of extreme bands and creating some great memories. As November rolls over again, it was time for people from across the country to make the journey to Leeds once more. (by Baz Anderson) Read more ›› |

Autolatry - Native (2013)
Some of you may recognize Autolatry from one of our Clandestine Cuts articles of the past year, where one of my colleagues reviewed their Of The Land EP. I decided to take my time and listen to the previous album and EP of this young black metal band before diving into the depths of their sophomore album. That's when I met an inconsistency... Of the good kind! Man, they threw me a curve ball. You see folks, it's not like any previous elements where erased. Hell no! All that can be heard...
