24.09.2021 | Industrial/sludge/post-metal

Many metal albums are described as 'crushing'; few deserve it as much as LLNN. Unmaker will sonically unmake the fabric of your existence.

Fans of the recent release by Psychonaut would do well to check out this debut album from another power trio post-metal band from Mechelen; Pothamus bring atmosphere in spades on Raya.

Pull Down The Sun - Of Valleys And Mountains
15.10.2020 | Progressive Post-Metal

The influences from the like of Gojira and The Ocean are easy to spot, but Pull Down The Sun take those influences to produce something that stands strong by itself; Of Valleys And Mountains is a fantastic debut effort from these Kiwis.

The Ocean - Phanerozoic II: Mesozoic / Cenozoic
27.09.2020 | Progressive Post-Metal

A bit later than expected, but we finally have the second part of the Phanerozoic project from The Ocean, and a worthy sibling to Phanerozoic I: Palaeozoic it is. "Jurassic | Cretaceous" in particular is a fantastic demonstration of what this collective are capable of.
