I am moving to the latest ULTHA album. ULTHA is a band on another level for me, and ‘A Light So Dim’ once again transcends black metal into something much larger. One never knows where they will go next, and the listening experience and atmosphere they expertly craft here is a true gift. An unpredictable soundtrack for the chaotic times.

EXXÛL ‘Sealed Into None’ POWER DOOM DANCE REVIEW
I am moving to the new EXXÛL ‘Sealed Into None’ album. This epic power doom is true excellence in sound – TOP TIER performances, tone, and production. To hear Phil Tougas shred guitar is always a treat, but with bass pumped into the mix with solos, chunky thundering drums, and the acrobatic high notes on these vocals?? Just wow.
When I first heard the harmony on the ya-yas (candle scene above), I was helpless to this album’s powers. This is the most fun I’ve had with heavy metal in some time. Get in here!
