Normalcy is dead
And the review has evolved
Haiku time, bitches
Alpha-O-Maga – Make America Grind Again

Political grind
It is an album that exists
The world keeps spinning
~365 Days of Horror
L’Homme Absurde – Belong
Self-Released | January 17, 2020
Cult Of Luna vibes
Great post-metal from Russia
Heavy and pretty
~365 Days of Horror
Insect Ark – The Vanishing

Instrumental grooves
Writhing and undulating
Even better live
~365 Days of Horror
NyreDolk – Indebrændt
Strange Aeons | March 31, 2020
Blackened Punk stylings
Not executed too well
Think I’ve had enough
~Hans
Omni Express – Florida Man

Whimsical and pretty fun
Korn cover sucks bad
~Hans
Ganondorf – Ancient Ruins

Just solid-ass black metal
No Zelda, sorry
~Hans
Jenner – The Test of Time EP

Melodic thrashing
Vocals recall cigarettes
And somehow No Doubt
~Rolderathis
Iceaxe – Lone Climber on the Longest Ridge

Blackened hiking tunes
Structures so adventurous
Even Richter digs
~Rolderathis
Protosequence – A Blunt Description of Something Obscene
Lacerated Enemy | May 19th, 2020
The tech riffs are sick
But the “prog” feels overplayed
Also lolbuttz cleans
