I am moving to the debut album from ANTHRODYNIA (Aug 15 2025) My kind of death doom! And the way it lulls with its immersive atmosphere is WHAT’S UP. Highly recommended if you like the cavernous bunch Spectral Voice, Ossuary, Blood Spore. #Metalsky

Reminder this release from February is very good! Atmospheric and melodic black metal with some head turning AEUGGGHH ripping solos. It's a complete package give it a spin if you haven't.
Malacath - Eternal Roar of the Thunder and Rain

Deeply melancholy, atmospheric and moving. Felt like it channeled the spirit of Bergtatt-era Ulver and early Agalloch in a way that I haven't heard quite so well in quite some time

Massive sound packed in a 22min EP. This is the kind of stuff I've been gravitating towards recently. Especially the second half of track 'Come, Appalling Sleep' ... it just carries you away ahhhhhhh.
🎧 LOCUSTS AND HONEY 'Shadow of My End' (out today Nov 21) Big heavy blackened doom feels on this EP. Shit is good!

Still listening to LIJKSCHOUWER a lot! Really doing the stuff.
🎧 LIJKSCHOUWER 'All What Did The Blade Reveal' (Sept 16 2025) Impressive 2025 black metal that mixes in sludge and death, bringing emotional weight and intensity on the same level as ULTHA. And you know how I feel about Ultha. ‼️

🎧 DEGRAVED 'Spectral Realm of Ruin' (out today Dark Descent / Me Saco) A tasty slab of death metal, this full-length debut is more than just chugs. Wait till the eerie whiff of the 2nd track hits and you be like, "OH YES, this band gets it." And they can GET IT.

I am moving to BLIGHTED ELDER (June 27 2025) This ravaging black metal has kept its grips on me since I first heard it around its release. Recorded in 2 sessions, the front vs. back half is special. A truly must hear USBM for 2025! #MetalSky

🎧 ILLUSIVE KEY 'Consume Us' (Oct 8) really enjoyed my first listen of this!
Yeah, Déhà just doesn't miss. Dude is master of everything, but especially black metal. Band also has guy from Häxenzijrkell and a former member of Tardigrada. #metalsky

ANNOUNCEMENT
Maltese black metal band Saħħar and USBM Mnajdra have collaborated to bring you
“MDLXV - Fidi, Vendetta”
A conceptual split based on the legendary Great Siege of Malta.
3 tracks from each band and a track worked by both. Out November 14 on Snow Wolf and @fiadh.bsky.social
October 7, 2025 at 8:43 AM
🎧 OAKEN 'From The Bonfire' (Sept 29 2025) This 5-piece post hardcore/sludge is more than just gruff vocals. Laying out an expansive atmosphere w/synths, equal parts intense & delicate, the crushing arrangements will surely rouse any Inter Arma, Oryx, and FÓRN fans.

It seems likely, despite the deluge of new music worth everyone's attention, that I might be taking a rare weekend off. But be that as it may, you HAVE to listen to the new release from Lucerne Hammer. You must. Perfect.
