Review of ‘Exitium’ by HOR
Review by Zach Brehany | April 16, 2020 | Band Link Before one should read this review, it should be known that I am not the best when it comes to black metal. I guess it was never really my taste in metal. With that said, good music is good music and Hor knows how…

Review of Gentihaa’s “Reverse Entropy”
Review by Ryan Murray | January 23, 202 Gentihaa’s “Reverse Entropy” is a brutal assault on your senses! This album is difficult to place under any specific sub genre of metal, but has got it all musically – from thrash riffs, to metalcore, to extreme metal, to symphonic metal. Vocally it’s a mix between brutal…
