This Is Important
Why is this important, you ask? Well, mostly because we cover a few albums that may affect our upcoming year-end lists. Also, one of these albums just has a heavy, significant message to the world. Oh, and maybe that’s just an attention-grabbing title.
Reviews:
Cattle Decapitation – Death Atlas (Metal Blade)
Blood Incantation – Hidden History Of The Human Race (Dark Descent)
Sentient Horror – Morbid Realms (Redefining Darkness)
Forget Me Not
The problem we had for some of the artists this week is not in their musicianship, but their ability to make us remember what the hell just happened. If you can’t handle that, then out already-crappy memories sure as hell aren’t going to remember their albums a year or more from now. Let us know in the comments (or social media) if you agree with our assessments!
Reviews:
Nile – Vile Nilotic Rites (Nuclear Blast)
Cloak – The Burning Dawn (Season of Mist)
Sunless Rise – Ultimacy

Like Having Sex While Camping
Not only do we have an overload of music for you this week, most of it is really heavy and pretty fucking intense. Even better is we like or love all of it! Hopefully you do too!

Car Bomb – Mordial
Infant Annihilator – The Battle of Yaldabaoth
Implore – Alienated Despair (Century Media)
Two Overdue Big-Name Reviews…
…and some other band. I mean, we didn’t mean to overshadow Cognizance (which Brian says wrong almost every time), but it just kinda happened that way. We have a fair amount to say about all three, so make sure you say your piece int he comments or on social media!
Reviews:
Slipknot – We Are Not Your Kind (Roadrunner)
Killswitch Engage – Atonement (Metal Blade)
Cognizance – Malignant Dominion (Prosthetic)
