After their 2018 demo and debut EP, Cleveland post-hardcore and noise trio BRAIN CAVE haven’t dragged their feet, releasing a record each and every year. So here we are...

The world is burning down? Crank it up and listen to WHORES.

by

Eight years. That’s how long it took the sonic beast that is WHORES to blast yet another storm of bangers. To say that we haven’t seen the time go by would be a lie,...

SONS OF ALPHA CENTAURI looks back and converts the try on “Pull”.

by

When a band creates music that echoes so powerfully the golden age of rock (the 90s), the lost listener is very tempted to hop on the labeling bandwagon: grunge, post-hardcore,...

PISSED JEANS knocks down monotony with “Half Divorced”.

by

Pissed Jeans have been a staple band of Sub Pop Records since 2007, yet they feel like a black sheep among the Seattle label’s tidy catalog. They recently released their...

Stoner grunge merchants DISASTROID strike again with “Garden Creatures”.

by

Wanna hear about grunge revival? Hell no. To us, “revival” is a word for low-grade and poorly inspired copycats, and this is certainly not what DISASTROID is about....

SOMETHING ANIMAL brings chaos on “Bestial Curse Part 1”

by

Back in the days, when it came to chaotic hardcore, French outfits could be counted on the fingers of one hand and America remained our main dealer. From now on, we’ll have...

DOMKRAFT get closer to the Doom Grail with “Sonic Moons”.

by

Say that this fourth album from Sweden’s Domkraft was eagerly awaited would be an understatement. After the major slap in the face provided by “Seeds” two years...

DOPELORD goes on a crusade with “Songs For Satan”.

In today’s European stoner and doom landscape, DOPELORD has become a major force to be reckoned with. Having forged a sound now recognizable from the first riffs,...

THUNDER HORSE’s “After The Fall” is the doom call to arms the world needs.

by

Released this summer, the new album from Texan quartet THUNDER HORSE is a heavy metal slap in the face the likes of which we haven’t experienced in a long time! Sticking to...

BLACK RAINBOWS reach their apex with “Superskull”.

by

Three years ago, I was writing that “Cosmic Ritual Supertrip” was the best Black Rainbows album, but I certainly didn’t take into account their ability to...

HAIL THE VOID set the new standards of doom with “Memento Mori”.

by

Disclaimer: you may need to warm your neck up before getting into this album, or you’ll risk massive whiplash. When Ripple Music started working with Blasko, we knew that he...

ABRAMS craft an addictive heavy rock recipe with “In The Dark”.

by

We didn’t expect the best release of the summer to be both such a surprise and a heart-stopper, with Abrams new album “In The Dark”. If my editor wasn’t in...

DEADLY VIPERS make a huge (stoner) splash with “Low City Drone”.

by

Given the band name, artwork and associated label, you think you’d know what to expect from this new DEADLY VIPERS album: a ton of fuzz dripping from your earholes. This is...

KEN MODE give us a glimmer of hope with their cathartic new album “Null”.

by

This September, KEN mode released their eighth album “Null”, and it’s probably my album of the year. No less. You won’t get any pitch or namedropping here,...
