Saprogenic: Expanding Toward Collapsed Lungs

SAPROGENIC
EXPANDING TOWARD COLLAPSED LUNGS
   If you like your music grotesquely guttural, heavy enough to make your ears implode and fast enough to loosen your head clean of your shoulders, then this is the album for you! What makes Expanding Toward Collapsed Lungs so special you ask? Well just imagine taking the rawest and most pulverizing elements of bands such as; Immolation, The Black Dahlia Murder, Six Feet Under and Vomitory, then melting them down and pouring the molten metallic components into a CD mold. Now imagine what that CD would sound like. Exactly like Expanding Toward Collapsed Lungs, is the correct answer. 
   There are moments during some tracks where you can't help but feel some sort of deja vu, but at the end of the day, if a riff works then its probably going to be used again. Its far more likely though that if you do feel anything other than pure euphoria while listening to this album, then it will be pure amazement. Amazement at just how crushing tracks like "Eat My Heart" and "Below Death" really are.
    Its fair to say that at no point does Expanding Toward Collapsed Lungs get boring. The wave-after-wave brutality certainly does its job keeping the listener gripped on all that is good and heavy. The superbly masterful riffing demonstrated on "Ritual Blaze" and the turbulent chugging of title track, "Expanding Toward Collapsed Lungs", makes it clear just how much business this talented bunch of Metallers actually mean. 
   Songs this good may be an enjoyable listen now, but a few years from now fans will be looking back on these tracks as the launching pad that allowed Saprogenic to ascend to Metal stardom.

BEAST IN BLACK: DARK CONNECTION

  BEAST IN BLACK:  DARK CONNECTION     Bombastic, heavy, wild and fun, Dark Connection is everything that any obliging listener can expect to hear from Finnish whippersnappers Beast In Black.      Saturated with synths, electronics and plenty of twiddling guitars, the album has a very European (or more specifically Scandinavian) Pop vibe, more prevalent here than on Beast In Black's previous efforts. That said, there is no shortage of cracking riffs, slamming drums and impressive vocals.     Kicking off in dramatic fashion, " Blade Runner " offers up an seizure inducing blur of riffs and crazed keys. Sounding like a disco injected Judas Priest, " Bella Donna " is bizzare yet undeniably infectious and catchy. With a great sing-along chorus, crunchy Metallic riffs and an abundance of synths and keys, " Highway To Mars " is another groovy staple. Offering a little more heaviness, " Hardcore " pounds and thunders along like a softer Sabaton, befo

No Nonsense Metal: Top 10 Albums Of 2013!

No Nonsense Metal  Top 10 Albums Of 2013!    2013 has proven to be a monumental year for extreme music. We have witnessed the return of some of the greatest pioneering acts Metal music has ever seen, as well as a succession of future legends solidifying their place within our realms. It is fair to say that 2013 holds some of the best Metal releases of all time, but within it also resides some of the most spectacular misfires ever to insult mortal eardrums. Focusing on the positive aspects of the years releases, here is a round up of 10 albums that 2013 shall truly be remembered for. Undoubtedly, this list of albums will (and should) be fairly predictable, reminding you of the incredible strides extreme music has made within the last year. However, it should also highlight just how much can change within a 365 day stretch, and just how much Metal music can terraform within that time. So lets hope 2014 lives up to the achievements of 2013. Bring on the brutality!  10- MEGADETH:
