 It is one of the absolute best works born from the New York genius.

 One of the most fascinating, intense, and content-rich trilogies (not only sonically) ever created comes to a close!

John Zorn’s Six Litanies For Heliogabalus concludes his acclaimed trilogy with remarkable intensity and variety. Zorn steps back from performing to direct, adding a broad ensemble including Mike Patton and Ikue Mori. The album blends speed metal, noise rock, and free jazz with strong rhythmic and organ elements. Patton’s vocal contributions add haunting complexity, sealing an exhilarating avant-garde experience. Dive into John Zorn’s Six Litanies and experience the thrilling finale of a groundbreaking avant-garde trilogy today!

 The shadows far outweigh the lights, and by the end of listening, one is left puzzled.

 If we are to speak of listening, abstracting from the theory that underpins everything, then know that the work is weak and certainly not one to support such lofty intents.

John Zorn's album 'From Silence To Sorcery' ambitiously explores mystical and magical themes through three distinct tracks. Despite its conceptual aims, the album ultimately puzzles listeners with weak and unconvincing compositions. The tracks lack the ritualistic or sonic impact expected, marking a step back from some of Zorn's celebrated works. The reviewer advises reading the liner notes for deeper understanding but remains unimpressed by the overall listening experience. Explore John Zorn’s bold experiment in mysticism—listen and decide if From Silence To Sorcery speaks to you.

 A power trio is the least one can do, especially if such a definition is applied to a hard rock context where physicality prevails over embellishments.

 I would recommend purchasing the album to all those who, although making avant-garde sonic choices, tend to prefer full-bodied and robust sounds.

Marc Ribot leads a formidable trio in the seventh volume of John Zorn’s Book Of Angels series, delivering a robust and inventive album titled Asmodeus. Featuring Trevor Dunn and G. Calvin Weston, the record emphasizes a powerful, monolithic sound with deep instrumental clarity. The performance balances avant-garde experimentation with a strong rock foundation, appealing to listeners who appreciate both intellect and sonic strength. Listen to Marc Ribot’s Asmodeus and experience avant-garde power trio brilliance!

 Sylvie Courvoisier has always made the research applied to the piano her distinctive trademark.

 The album seeks to combine listening and research, but not always succeeding fully in the endeavor.

Sylvie Courvoisier's 'Signs And Epigrams' showcases her distinctive experimental piano approach, blending neoclassical, avant-garde, and radical sound textures. The album consists of ten explorations that vary styles and techniques, including piano manipulation to emulate orchestral sounds. While the album ambitiously combines listening pleasure and research, it occasionally falls short in fully realizing its innovative ambitions. Overall, it remains an intriguing work for fans of piano experimentation and genre fusion. Explore Sylvie Courvoisier's innovative piano sounds in Signs And Epigrams—listen now for a unique avant-garde experience!

 The execution is all too clean but scarcely effective and incisive.

 Certain instrumental solutions... leave much to be desired.

Paul Brody’s Sadawi album ‘For The Moment’ aims to explore Jewish roots through a fusion of klezmer, Balkan, and jazz music. Despite this ambitious approach, the album suffers from overly clean execution and limited impact. Some instrumental choices and electronic elements feel weak and sporadic, leading to a disappointing overall impression. Explore Paul Brody’s Sadawi album 'For The Moment' and decide if this fusion of klezmer and jazz speaks to you.

 Each track is capable of developing a significant power, to the point that the most appropriate definition for 'Commandment' could be 'suffocating death.'

 Six Feet Under has an absolutely unique style and carries it forward with consistency, without introducing too many variations, but also without merely photocopying each previous album.

The reviewer defends Six Feet Under against claims of monotony, highlighting their unique, consistent style that balances brutality with groove. "Commandment" delivers suffocating death metal that's raw yet captivating. Chris Barnes’ dual role as vocalist and producer along with Erik Rutan’s mixing elevates the record. Fans of death metal and similar bands will appreciate this solid and ruthless album. Dive into Six Feet Under’s Commandment and experience brutal, groove-driven death metal like never before.

 Electro dark metal captured at its moment of maximum expressive splendor, this is 'Solar Soul.'

 With Solar Soul, the album is deeply a child of the soul, even before the intellect, more sunny and open, warm in contrast to their previous chilling releases.

Samael's Solar Soul is hailed as a unique and evolved album blending electro dark metal with orchestral and melodic elements. The band moves beyond their black metal roots to craft a warm, sophisticated sound. The album's balance of intensity, guitar presence, and keyboard programming shows their innovative spirit. Solar Soul is praised as an expressive and grand release that marks a milestone in their creative journey. Listen to Samael’s Solar Soul and explore a groundbreaking blend of electro dark metal and orchestral grandeur today!

 The creation was experienced with a clear sense of boisterous participation (by all those involved)... though never with superficiality.

 In the closing 'Milk Baba' the Middle Eastern sounds are uncertain whether they are a playful excuse or a serious meditative/spiritual application.

Psychic TV’s album Hell Is Invisible... Heaven Is Her/e marks a vivid revival of their experimental sound after a studio hiatus since 1995. The album features ten expansive tracks blending psychedelic, post-punk, kraut rock, and trance elements. Contributions from notable artists enrich the dynamic and participatory feel of the record. The review highlights the album’s thought-provoking and multifaceted nature, emphasizing its artistic depth and sonic diversity. Dive into Psychic TV’s sonic journey and experience the eclectic blend of psychedelic and experimental rock in Hell Is Invisible... Heaven Is Her/e!

 The place that belongs to Monstrosity is in the pantheon of extreme sound.

 The album is dynamic, powerful, never redundant, perfectly supported by the vocals of Mike Hrubovcak.

Monstrosity's fifth album, Spiritual Apocalypse, solidifies their place in American death metal history. Despite lineup changes, the band delivers intricate riffs and explosive sound clarity. Recorded at Morrisound Studios, it blends old-school brutality with progressive and melodic elements. Vocals and instrumentals perfectly complement the dynamic and powerful tracks. The album is a testament to Monstrosity's enduring influence and technical skill. Dive into Monstrosity's Spiritual Apocalypse and experience a masterful blend of brutal death metal and technical prowess today!

 Job For A Cowboy strike with their tracks specifically designed to generate devastation and induce sonic saturation.

 They often stop just below the surface, leaving room for a deeper and more conclusive sonic onslaught.

Job For A Cowboy's debut full-length album 'Genesis' delivers technically flawless brutal death and grind metal that generates sonic devastation. While the tracks are powerful and well-executed, the reviewer feels the band stops just short of fully maximizing their destructive potential. Suggestions include expanding ambient and industrial elements and developing longer, more immersive compositions. Overall, a strong debut with clear promise for future growth. Discover Job For A Cowboy's intense and promising 'Genesis'—listen now and feel the brutal metal impact!
