SpiritWorld - Helldorado (2025 | Death Metal | Century Media Records )
---
„Helldorado feels like a journey through the rugged landscapes of both metal and the Wild West. The aggressive heaviness, Western imagery, and country-punk elements are the core of an absolute banger of an album.“

Whitechapel - Hymns in Dissonance (2025 | Deathcor

Whitechapel - Hymns in Dissonance (2025 | Deathcore | Metal Blade Records )
---
„A return to roots record is a tricky task. Most of the time the end-product falls short of re-capturing the magic of old time achievements. Especially in the more extreme sectors of metal. Whitechapel managed to avoid this trap by integrating subtle tweaks and turns in every bludgeoning track presented on their ninth record "Hymns in Dissonance". But be warned, this is not for the faint-hearted. To those who cherish aggression and brutality with clever and dynamic songwriting: look no further and immediately sing these dissonant hymns, daddy's home.“

This Gift is a Curse - Heir (2025 | Death Metal | Season of Mist )
---
„“Heir” feels like a never-ending descent into pure darkness. It offers an obscure interplay of chaos, melancholy, destruction, and loneliness.
This Gift Is a Curse's latest work is definitely not an easy listen.
However, it is shaping up to be a truly exciting and multifaceted album—one that will undoubtedly resonate with fans of extreme metal who are searching for something both crushing and thought-provoking.“

"Formed in 2022, the band is quickly gaining attention with a timeless intepretation of hand-crafted alternative Metal, also reminiscing on 90's grunge heroes such as Alice In Chains or the often forgotten Only Living Witness."

Voidhra - Only Cold Winds Will Carry My Name (2025

Voidhra - Only Cold Winds Will Carry My Name (2025 | Black Metal | Crawling Chaos Records)
---
"I'm a guitarist first and foremost, and that's exactly what I focus on. For me, a riff is the most important element of a song, followed by the song structure as a whole - the lyrics only come at the very end. So there is no continuous common thread."
---
With the return of Friedrichshafen Black Metal combo @voidhra and their sophomore full-length release "Only Cold Winds Will Carry My Name," that was released via @crawling_chaos_records we decided to sit down again and talk about the progression from debut to sophomore, the full band, the songwriting of this album and live experiences.

Wren - Black Rain Falls (2025 | Doom / Sludge | Church Road Records )
---
„But upon diving deeper into the concept of Black Rain Falls it becomes clear that Wren make music for a never-ending carousel of thoughts. Sometimes it spins faster and stronger with the G-forces exert their influence on the body. Sometimes it slows down and the mind takes in its surroundings. But all the time the thoughts are with you.“

Mantar - Post Apocalyptic Depression (2025 | Sludge/ Punk | Metal Blade Records )

„For me, Post Apocalyptic Depression is a sheer delight. As someone who generally resides more in the realms of post-rock/metal and the like, Mantar has always offered me a little escape from over-orchestrated song structures, allowing the little musical rage kid that resides in all of us to come out. “

Mótha - Nieuwe Manen (2025 | Ambient | Consouling Sounds )

„It is always astounding how music that seems to offer no accessible things like hooks or repeating melodies but in spite of all that evoke deep emotions. Mótha’s „Nieuwe Manen“ is another great entry in the Ambient roster of Consouling Sounds. The Belgium label is known and beloved for discovering and ungrounding this kind of gems and they surely released another great one into the world. “

TAYNE - Love (2025 | Industrial/Pop/Metal | MNRK UK / Inside Job )
—
„On the musical side, the contradictory aspects of love are expressed in Tayne’s genre collage. The backbone of Love is undoubtedly the pounding industrial sound reminiscent of HEALTH. The muscular mass surrounding it consists of guitars that would fit well with Nine Inch Nails, while the pop appeal of ††† (Crosses) hovers over everything.“
