REVIEW: Luna\’s Call – Divinity
LUNA\’S CALL DIVINITYLINCOLN, UK (Reposted from BrubbADubb) More then likely, people will draw more then a few comparisons to older Opeth albums when listening to Luna\’s Call, at least when it comes to this album, and that isn\’t too surprising as Opeth has been massively influential – the gap left from their stylistic change was… Continue reading

REVIEW: Cairiss – Fall (EP)
CAIRISS FALL (EP) UNSIGNED It would be so simply to call Cairiss black-metal, and it would certainly save me a lot of time.

REVIEW: Edge of Haze – Illumine
For those who don\’t know, I am a fan of Doom, Gothic (what few \’Gothic\’ bands remain), and Progressive rock/metal breeds. The vast majority of my personal music collection mostly consists of these genres – just because I review a decent amount of Black Metal doesn\’t mean I listen to it exclusively or for recreation.… Continue reading
