8th album from 1998 by the American SLAYER, one of the most influential bands in the history of Thrash Metal. “Diabolus in Musica” stands as one of the most controversial and experimental releases of the band's career, incorporating Groove Metal influences and more modern sounds without completely abandoning the aggression and darkness that defined its identity.
With a crushing production and a heavier, more atmospheric approach, the album finds SLAYER exploring new musical territories while retaining its trademark intensity. Although it divided opinions among longtime fans upon release, it has gained increasing recognition over the years as a bold and distinctive entry in the band's extensive catalogue.
Recommended for fans of MACHINE HEAD, PANTERA, SEPULTURA and EXHORDER.
2nd album from 2017 by this Russian band and an ambitious conceptual work that further established SLEEPING WOODLAND within the European Viking Metal and Folk Metal scene. Released six years after the band's debut, "To the Northern Seas" was the result of a lengthy songwriting process during which Yuri Ovchinnikov and Andrey Koshevoy created an extensive saga inspired by Norse mythology, Viking legends and the frozen landscapes of the far north.
Musically, the album blends epic passages, cinematic atmospheres, Folk melodies and highly narrative compositions. Rather than focusing solely on aggression, SLEEPING WOODLAND favors expansive and evocative songwriting where acoustic sections, solemn choirs and adventurous arrangements coexist naturally. The result is a richly textured album filled with northern spirit, reflecting influences from acts such as BATHORY, MOONSORROW and ENSIFERUM while retaining its own distinct identity.
Recommended for fans of: MOONSORROW, ENSIFERUM, BATHORY, FALKENBACH.
2nd album from '02 by this polish band that seems to be the inheritors of DEAD INFECTION. 15 songs of pure Gore/ Grind without weird influences and a very good production.

Compilation released in 2009 by Madrid's TEITANBLOOD, gathering the demo “Genocide Chants to Apolokian Dawn” (2004) together with the tracks originally featured on their legendary split EPs with PROCLAMATION and NECROS CHRISTOS. “Black Putrescence of Evil” documents the band's earliest and most savage years, capturing the raw beginnings of one of the most extreme and revered acts in contemporary Death/Black Metal.
The material showcases the band at its most primitive, chaotic and blasphemous, delivering a devastating assault of Bestial Death/Black Metal filled with violence, darkness and apocalyptic atmospheres. A true ritual of sonic destruction where the most infernal influences of extreme Metal converge, already foreshadowing the unique identity the band would later establish through its studio albums.
Recommended for fans of BLASPHEMY, PROCLAMATION, ANGELCORPSE, ARCHGOAT and NECROS CHRISTOS.
Debut album from 1991 by the Swedish THERION and one of the standout releases of the first generation of Scandinavian Death Metal. “Of Darkness...” finds Christofer Johnsson's band at its most extreme and straightforward, delivering a dark and crushing Death Metal assault deeply rooted in the classic Swedish sound of the early 1990s.
With heavy riffs, sinister atmospheres and relentless aggression, the album has become a genuine classic of Swedish Death Metal. Although THERION would later achieve worldwide recognition through its symphonic and experimental evolution, “Of Darkness...” remains an outstanding document of the band's brutal origins and an essential piece of early European Death Metal.
Recommended for fans of ENTOMBED, NIHILIST, GRAVE and UNLEASHED.
