Listenable Records, svart crown

I fell in love with Svart Crown back in 2010 when their album magically landed on my year-end list that year. I have been patiently waiting, wondering when the French blackened deathdealers would return and crush my skull. I am fucking thrilled to say, today is that day. Continue reading »

The Chicago noise shifters Locrian will return this year with their follow up to 2011′s excellent The Clearing.

Pre-orders for the effort can be found here. No track listing has been made available as of yet.

Nah. Not that Shining. This is the other one. The black metal one. From Sweden. I’m a big fan of Shining and all of their releases leave me wanting more and more. The band has jumped on the split bandwagon as of late, releasing one last year and one already in 2013. That’s not all you’ll be hearing from Shining this year. They have another rad split coming soon… Continue reading »

Known Flood, review, Sannhet

By Lane Oliver

From the streets of Brooklyn hails a tremendous trio of cinematic metal enthusiasts that need your undivided attention. I am referring to Sannhet, whose debut album is truly remarkable. Known Flood is a forty-five minute epic display of masterful songwriting and emotional depth. The album’s waves of sonic power will polarize you and envelop you and will not let go for anything.

Known Flood, Sannhet, stream

Do you like post-rock or post-metal? Of course you do. Do you like hardcore? Of course you do. Do you like black metal? Of course you do. Do you like instrumental rock like Russian Circles and others? Of course you do. Then, my friend, you will adore Sannhet’s debut record Known Flood. This Brooklyn instrumental metal trio have put out one hell of a debut on Sacrament Records. Known Flood is forty-five minutes of dark and cinematic instrumental madness that is massively heavy and graceful as well. Noisey is currently providing a free stream of the record right now. Also, Sacrament is offering a LP and shirt package for the record if you are interested. Do not miss out on this epic album. You’ll regret it if you do.
