Forlornness - To Live It Again
100

I carry a great shame.

Death Toll 80k - Harsh Realities
90

Grossly unforgivable. Death Toll incorporates a combination of low gutturals and screechy highs to express their dreadful attitude. The variety of vocals and thrash influence the longer songs give Harsh Realities real music direction in a genre where it is not necessary. At just over 25 minutes there is no room for downtime, Death Toll while having groovy sections also manages to incorporate quintessential blast/incomprehensible blasts that we all love from the genre. I have never seen cash ... read more

Sorry... - Drowned In Misery
70

Fantastic DSBM. Consistent, melancholic and unsettling. Drowned In Misery has a strong open and even stronger ending.

Bathory - Blood Fire Death
100

I am an arch-angel on my way to fight ten commandments.

90

If it weren't for the songs featuring Muscle Man from Regular Show this would be 100.

Nails - Every Bridge Burning
90

OH MY GAWWWD ITS LIKE SOMEONE PUT FIRE CRACKERS IN MY EARS AND NOW IM CRYING SO MUCH CRY I AM CRY

Metallica - Metallica
80

When its good its really good, when its not its mildly boring and tries to appeal to a mainstream audience which it successfully accomplishes.

80

Nasum is as brutal as ever in this LP. There is something about the tone and production of this group that scratches an itch no other band can. Sweden should be proud.

Despise You - West Side Horizons
70

I have suffered a traumatic brain injury and now have an extremely strong desire to do heroin.

Scalp - Black Tar
60

Short and compact. I appreciate the audio clips some of the tracks have like Yin. Scalp reminds me of NAILS with a more hardcore flare. Overall this LP is a good listen it just seems to leave a lot to be desired due to the short nature of the project. In grindcore short songs are a staple, but some of the tracks seem unfinished leaving the LP to feel rushed and lacking.

Carcass - Necroticism – Descanting the Insalubrious
80

Great blend of viciousness and groove. The songs stretch slightly too long for my usual taste, although there is nearly zero down downtime so I never felt bored. As raw as fresh roadkill and as brutal as a 16th century executioner.

Sadness - I want to be there
80

Still bleak and somber, but more hopeful sounding than Atna. The instrumentals are gloomy yet dreamy creating a vortex of bittersweet resonance. The way this artist fuses sorrowful and angelic noise is fascinating.

Sadness - atna
90

Very tranquil and soothing while also being exceedingly cathartic and depressing. Atna expresses so much agony in a beautiful way I can't help but appreciate. Many DSBM albums try to hard to provide a sorrowful sound. Sadness successfully personifies melancholy with the perfect blend of gut-wrenching vocals and gaze like instrumentals.

Yacøpsæ - Tanz, Grosny, Tanz...
90

Would do 1000 hours of community service to get this on Spotify. (On Spotify now!)

70

Makes me feel like a bloodlusted flakka fiend.

100

Grindcore classic with actual music direction. I love grindcore due to its ability to not need any direction. However, Repulsion is able to add in elements of thrash metal which make the songs groovy and chaotic at the same time. Absolutely no skips and positively repulsive.

Bathory - Bathory
70

I like dark, uneasy and dirty. This album is all those things and it reminds of what Lord of the Rings looks like. Yeah that makes sense.
