An Abstract Illusion – The Sleeping City

This is the sort of album where one play though is not enough, each subsequent listen reveals something else. You can head bang to it, brandish an air guitar or just lie down in a darkened room and listen.

Impureza – Alcázares

The straightforward death metal parts sound much like many other bands. The flamenco sections are delightful, but the best bits come when they merge the two styles in what can only be described as Death Flamenco. They prefer to call it Hispanic Metal, and if that’s not progressive enough, I don’t know what is.

Eight Lives Down – Fates

What makes ‘Fates’ brilliant to me, is the subtle way of informing the listener about what they are hearing, and the coherence of lyrics, compositional choices and aesthetics.

Allegaeon – The Ossuary Lens

Like all the best albums The Ossuary Lens gets better with every play because there is so much going on. If, and I hope this is the case, an eighth album is planned then bring it on I say.

Jinjer – Duél

I’ve been thinking of them as a metalcore band, but I think that label might’ve become obsolete by the time they made “Macro”.

Frogg – Eclipse

There is no denying that there is a lot of talent on show here. Frogg obviously have a desire to produce something unusual and it will be interesting to see where they go from here.

The Mourning – Hush

“Hush” displays a lot of compositional variety, and offers a strong throwback to prog metal classics while also keeping a unique sound and mixing in unexpected elements.

Haliphron – Anatomy of Darkness

If you want your mind blown by something groundbreaking, there’s not much for you here, but if you just want to jam some gripping and well-executed death metal, then look no further. Haliphron has you covered.

Omnivide – A Tale of Fire

The mix of styles in the material on “A Tale of Fire” speaks volumes to me. Debut albums are always a great stepping stone for bands, and I hope this landmark moment will spur them on. I am sure they have plenty of ideas in their locker and I look forward to hearing more from them.

Exocrine – Legend

This is another one of those bands that have passed me by until now. Legend is their fifth album in just under ten years. So not only is there a back catalogue to explore, but it shouldn’t be too long before album number six. Bring it on I say because the pros far outweigh the cons on this release, so it’s thumbs up from me.

Stortregn – Finitude

I was expecting an exciting competition for tech-death supremacy to emerge towards the end of the year, as the release date to “Finitude” grew closer.  What I didn’t expect, however, was that this album was going to shatter the bar and go play in a league of its own.

Tegmentum – Evolvement

Despite having sat through a bunch of technical death metal albums since the beginning of this year, I can easily say that Tegmentum dropped the most brutal album of 2023 so far. And it will be a very difficult one to top.

Kallias – First Ascent

“First Ascent” is an extraordinary display of clever composition, diverse technical abilities and ingenious combinations that stands as a unique voice in the progressive death metal scene!

Structural – Decrowned

Structural’s sophomore effort wastes no time and takes no prisoners. It is a relentless display of punchy and creative death metal with just enough variety to turn their craft into a maelstrom of sophisticated badassery!

Demon King – Vesania

Demon King’s debut was an instant dose of satisfaction for me. And after sitting through a couple of streams of “Vesania”, the only thought process that I can expect went behind this one is “Let’s do it again… but MORE”.
