Greetings, Decibel readers!
This week’s crop of latest releases leans closely on the well-produced, epic and theatrical aspect of the ledger right this moment. So if that’s your bag, it’s best to get actually pumped for the brand new albums from Allegaeon, Eonian and Tómarúm. I really feel like every of these entries could possibly be the soundtrack to their very own sci-fi or fantasy flick.
I’ll carry the popcorn. You may eat it although, I hate popcorn.

Allegaeon – The Ossuary Lens
An extended-running technical assault unit points its newest salvo of riffs, blasts and catchy vocal traces. Allegaeon‘s complete MO has all the time been to ship the products by way of aggression and ability whereas giving audiences songs that really feel like life-affirming anthems. That strategy continues unabated on The Ossuary Lens.

Benediction – Ravage of Empires
A good longer-running establishment returns with the primary album since 2020’s Scriptures. As with bands like Grave, Grasp and Asphyx, you already know what you’re moving into with Benediction: easy, grinding loss of life metallic. No frills, no gimmicks, simply explosive power and relentless energy.

Tómarúm – Past Obsidian Euphoria
In the same church however a special pew, Atlanta’s Tómarúm brings a towering and all-enveloping feeling to bear with their explicit model of black metallic. Undoubtedly important listening for followers of Ne Oblivscaris and Aquilus.

Ysbrydnos – Siant Derwyddol
And now for the album I’m most enthusiastic about for this week, Siant Derwyddol involves us from the one-man black metallic outfit Ysbrydnos. The ambiance right here is every little thing you’d need from a correctly spooky black metallic launch, draped in tales from Ysbyrd’s Welsh homeland. Everytime you really feel like uncooked, dungeon-dwelling black metallic has been performed out, all you want to hear is one thing like “Derwydd Pt III The Cave Beneath The Mountain” to revive your religion as soon as extra.
