LACRIMAS PROFUNDERE UNVEIL “MY RELEASE IN PAIN”

Lacrimas Profundere’s New Album Antiadore Released Today! Gothic rock/metal is hardly the most “cool” label one can give to a metal band. Sadly, it conjures up a lot of rather negatives images and over time has become more associated with negative connotations than good music. For me, it’s not too far removed from a certain [...]

DEAFHEAVEN STREAMING GLORIOUS NEW ALBUM SUNBATHER

Deafheaven are becoming quite a household name in the US black metal scene these days. They released a demo a few years ago, which I thought showed some serious promise. Their debut album Roads To Judah failed to grab a hold of me however, as by the time it came out the black metal/shoegaze sound [...]

GET BYKÜRIUS WITH SOME NEW BLACK METAL

Bykürius Deliver Some Amazing Black Metal Covers It’s somewhat amusing to me that just two days ago when my beloved co-Iron Council member Disinformasiya posed the question “What covers have made you interested in a band?” I didn’t actually have an answer at the time, and yet, just this morning, I seem to have stumbled [...]
