6th album from 2023 by this veteran Finnish band and a strong continuation of the acclaimed second chapter that began with "Cosmic World Mother". Following their return in 2020, ...AND OCEANS further established themselves as one of the most distinctive acts in contemporary Symphonic Black Metal, successfully blending the spirit of their classic era with a modern production and a more refined songwriting approach.
"As in Gardens, So in Tombs" excels through its balance of aggression, melody and atmosphere. The band's trademark keyboards intertwine with sharp riffing, relentless blast beats and a strong melodic sensibility that gives the album a distinctly Finnish character. An inspired and sophisticated release that confirms the outstanding form of one of Europe's most unique Black Metal bands.

6th album from 1998 by this legendary American Death Metal band and the 2nd to feature George "Corpsegrinder" Fisher on vocals. Released after the acclaimed "Vile", it firmly established the band's new era, proving that the lineup change had not only been successfully overcome but had also contributed to a more mature and sophisticated songwriting approach.
Its sound combines CANNIBAL CORPSE's trademark brutality with more developed arrangements, particularly memorable riffing and outstanding musicianship. More technical and varied than some of its predecessors, the album finds the band expanding its musical scope without sacrificing any of its aggression, resulting in one of the strongest and most representative releases of its career.
