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.

Rejoice Old Man Gloom fanatics because the band is currently in the studio recording new material. After releasing their latest album No in 2012, maybe you won't have to wait that much for a new one. At this point, it isn't clear whether it will be a new album or EP (or something else) but the band has shared photos from the studio. Let the anticipation begin... (by BloodTears) Read more ›› |

The Swedes Evocation are facing changes in the band. Drummer Janne Kenttäkumpu Bodén and guitarist Vesa Kenttäkumpu have left the death metal band. Both members announced to the group that they would no longer be a part of the band after 2013. The reasons are that "they no longer have the energy or motivation to continue and also they have different priorities in their lives nowadays." The Kenttäkumpu brothers have been with the band since the beginning. Evocation has recruited a new guitar player, whose identity is still under wraps, and the search for a new drummer...

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 ›› |

Scale The Summit - The Collective (2011)
Instrumental Progressive Metal is one of the sub-sub-genres that's restricted to a small niche only, largely because for most bands they place a lot of emphasis on musicianship while the song writing is seldom ground breaking. Most of the time, it just sounds like some lengthy jam session with plenty of technicality and that's about it. Obviously, there's no vocals which makes the music lacking in the timbre department. Scale The Summit also play instrumental prog, but their latest...
