Minneapolis’ El-Ahrairah find a new warren at the Greek tape label Underground Soundscapes, release self-titled full length tape.

Deceptionist (which autocorrects to “Receptionist”) answers Italy’s call more for technical death metal. 

I Love the Mid-’90s. If you have a similar soft spot for “metallic hardcore” don’t sleep on Eternal Sleep.  

Honky addition from Texas-sized supergroup.

It’s raining threes for French psych doomsters Mars Red Sky.

Philip H Anselmo returns with black metal supergroup Scour. 

Maiden/Priest + Chris Barnes?
Yes. 

Home is where the (broken) heart is for Canadian black metallers.

Drink up the new LP from Montreal death dealers Phobocosm in full. 

Oceans Into Their Graves, sludge riffs into your ears, trad catchiness into your brain. 

Burn everything to the ground. 

No parasites or dirty needles are involved. Hopefully.

Part space, part old school, part its own thing entirely, Sentient is death metal not to be missed. 

Crunch some numbers and bash some brain cells with Ahtme (formerly The Roman Holiday).

That’s a nasty sounding collaboration, you may think — and you would be correct.
