angrymetalguy.com : A year ago to the day, the metal community tragically lost Brent Hinds. Three weeks from now, metalheads can observe a joyous anniversary involving Hinds: Blood Mountain turns 20. The convergence of these anniversaries must be disorienting for the remaining members of Mastodon, who recently released a tribute to their fallen brother. In … Seguir leyendo “Yer Metal Is Olde: Mastodon – Blood Mountain”

angrymetalguy.com : Do you, like me, ever find yourself missing the sheer metallic perfection of the first few Mercyful Fate albums? Both Melissa and Don’t Break the Oath cast such a brilliantly macabre, occult atmosphere that they surely amplified the already palpable Satanic Panic of the mid-80s. Good things never last, but for a brief … Seguir leyendo “The Night Eternal – Cold Velvet Review”

angrymetalguy.com : Vengeful trickster fairies, a realm of impenetrable cold and boundless frost, a dragon gnawing away at the roots of the World Tree; Norse iconography is intense, and metal bands have known this at least since Led Zeppelin. Sweden’s Fejd, a folk metal group formed in 2001 from the folk duo Rimmerfors and the … Seguir leyendo “Fejd – Nifelheim Review”

angrymetalguy.com : Sometimes it just feels good to let rip some ferocious riffs, pound the drums at headbanging velocity, and rail about society’s ills at a pitch that a caveman can appreciate. At least that’s how I imagine New Mexico’s Street Tombs approaches their songwriting. In 2023, they gave out a good ol’ thrashing on … Seguir leyendo “Street Tombs – Existence is Corruption Review”

angrymetalguy.com : It is summer, and summer is for MOAR SLAMS!!! 2026 hasn’t seen the most plentiful harvest from the most cavebrained of death metal subsets, but with choice items from acts like Glassbone, Utter Scorn, Onchocerciasis Esophagogastroduodenoscopy, and Gravecrawler, I’ve been able to keep my slam cravings moderately maintained.

angrymetalguy.com : London, England’s Fen has a storied history at AMG, with five reviews spread across three different writers. The illustrious Madame X reviewed them thrice with mixed results, followed by Doom_et_Al’s laudatory commentary on The Dead Light and, most recently, Cherd’s favorable-but-less-impressed impression of Monuments to Absence. You should read their words because they’re … Seguir leyendo “Fen – Elemental Part One: Mourning Earth Review”

angrymetalguy.com : You’ve likely never heard of him, but Mauricio Guerrero has been a busy man of late. I hadn’t either, until Peruvian stoner-doom band Illwind, featuring lead guitar from Guerrero, dropped their debut album in early July. Clarkkent’s positive review of The Unfolding at the End of Light drew my attention to this ‘chill … Seguir leyendo “Argul – Soledad & Orgullo Review”
