    Tear Down This Holy Mountain Tear Down This Holy Mountain
    A captivating combination of genres – essentially proggy death metal. A seamless 60 minutes full of musical ideas. A little noodly at times, but I enjoy the clean guitar work. Lyrically, it sits somewhere between nihilism and humanism – anti-religion, but more broadly institutional than the typical metal fare. There's a relish to the violence against women imagery in "Slave" which I don't enjoy, but on the whole this album stands up to scrutiny from most directions. Certainly not run of the mill

    A friend saw these guys play at what she described as a "gay metal night" in Berlin (opening for Sonja), and that's the kind of co-sign I want from a band this mean that I can't find any information about. When listening to this album I'm constantly imagining a lung held tight in your chest slowly breathing in and out, or a muscle clenching and unclenching. A wild visceral thing, as of an animal about to pounce, not out of hunger but desperate necessity. Must have been a great show.

    Off the back of the amazing new Hekseblad album, I asked, "Surely there must be more Witcher themed metal?" And naturally there is some. Albeit less than you might imagine. This is the pick of them that I've found so far. And appropriate that I found Caylen in the comments! Word to them.

    Tetrahedral Summoning Tetrahedral Summoning
    While octagonally lowering itself to the level of black metal, this is largely an album of noise-adjacent dungeon synth. Or dungeon synth-adjacent noise. Is it more elegant than destructive? It's hard to say where the balance lies.

    A project good enough that I buy a single track from them is rare, but Darkat Yuuyamihn delivers a very particular kind of screamo-infused blackgaze that feels made just for me and I want to do everything in my power to say I WANT MORE.

    Opening with Abbey Lincoln's definitive rendition of unreleased Billie Holiday song, Left Alone (natch), you have to admire the confidence of any musician to riff over what was originally a Max Roach / Art Davis rhythm section and iconic Coleman Hawkins sax solo – let alone in infamously fudging-the-details DSBM. But such is the ambition (or youthful naïveté) on this masterwork of slow burning late nite metal. Grand, solemn, and astounding throughout. Not to be missed by early Sadness fans.

    This is tagged as "atmospheric black metal" and it is worth addressing it as such. While firmly rooted in the depressive corner of the genre, I don't think anybody really approaches this sound – even in this relatively early incarnation – like Damián (Sadness, Trhä). It's a take clearly influenced by recent infatuation with black metal but ambivalent to the tropes, and in this way manages to always be refreshing, no matter how long and dark. Screamo guitars and not a double kick drum in sight.
