<p>Vidres A La Sang is no stranger to the Brutalism site as we’ve reviewed them at least twice, and we get the honor of writing on them again two years later since their last effort with the band’s sixth full length album, ”Virtut del desencis.” For those that know this four piece well from Spain, they know that what these guys put out is a far cry...

<p>U.K.’s Gorebringer wastes no time in delivering new music as they deliver their third full length album, “Condemned To Suffer” for 2024. The lineup is still the same with Stench still handling bass/ guitar duties, Carrion on drums, and Blood Worm on vocals, so the stability has continued since the last record in two years. The sound is still pri...

<p>Klaïton is one of those sleeping beasts that has slowly been biding its time before exploding on the scene with a bit of a splash of their debut EP for 2024. Formed in 2013 from the Netherlands, this five piece brews a Death Metal sound that sounds like a less fuzzy Bloodbath meets Morbid Angel. There is a ton of groove brought from the dual gui...

<p>Earthburner has been waiting patiently for almost 23 years to surface; it just needed all the right parts to fully function. Formed back in 2001 from members of Death Metal act Broken Hope Mike Miczek on drums and Jeremy Wagner on guitars, the two wanted to delve into the more nastier side of Death Metal by incorporating Grindcore elements with...

<p>Recently formed in 2023, Italy’s Astral Fortress wasted no time to get their debut going, and 2024 gets it with “Spawn Of The Stars.” A rather unique take on a blend of Blackened Death Metal that is highly melodic in the vein of Dissection meets Limbonic Art, this four piece was careful to tread that line in the sand between the genres and the r...

<p>Hot on the heels of their 2023 release, Ireland’s/ Poland’s Deadspeak tease yet some more new music with their EP, “No Respect… Neither For Living Nor For The Dead.” Those that know of this (now duo) that despite some lineup changes, still are going strong with that Death Metal style that has a Thrash tinge to it and sounds a bit like Death meet...

<p>France’s Ad Vitam Infernal scorch ears once again with their second full length album, “Le Ballet Des Anges” just four years after their debut. Formed in 2017, this duo creates Death Metal rooted in the 90s era, though despite their rather early 90s approach in the vein of Deicide and Morbid Angel with their debut album which was rather concise,...

<p>Italy’s The Blacktones have changed quite a bit over the years since their inception, each album seeming to get clearer and clearer since its start as an instrumental band back in 2011. While the core of this five piece is Sludge Metal, they’ve slowly been leaning towards other more accessible sounds, from Stoner Rock like Green Lung to almost A...

<p>A lot of ignorant people will claim that Metal is just nonsense and noise; lots of bands have gone to great lengths to disprove these insults all the way from the creative genius of Devin Townsend to the earthshaking popularity of blasphemous groups like Mayhem. But some bands take the criticism and throw it back in the naysayer’s face by creati...

<p>It has taken some time for Sweden’s Putrified to get some liftoff since their inception back in 2011, but this Death Metal group brings the Old School in full force and rather crisp sound, avoiding the typical murky droning, distorted sound that bands like Immolation or Witch Vomit do. This four piece takes a rather unique approach to Death Meal...

<p>Very little is known about the Netherlands’ Black Metal entity known as Bok. Spearheaded by MvG who does everything versus his work in other projects like Experimentum where he is teamed up with others, this project is more Black Metal than Industrial/ Ambient focused and is as venomous as it is mystical. A demo of only 5 tracks, it does clock n...

<p>Mortiferoth hail from New York and have been tastefully devastating ears since 2015. While not a very large discography under their belt between splits and EPs, they recently delivered a new EP entitled “...To The Abyss” which builds on their mix of Thrash Death Metal and continues to climb the rungs of the ladder for the title ‘cosmic Death Met...
