mayhem

 An album like this requires a great deal of attention. And several listens before being evaluated positively or negatively.

 Ulver has definitely landed on the shores of extreme ambient/electronics, and everything seems to work perfectly.

 Explore Ulver’s Blood Inside to experience their mysterious and avant-garde blend of dark electronics and progressive sounds.

 Napalm Death have always managed to give a concrete, tangible, and politically incorrect meaning to the sonic and visual violence that has always accompanied them.

 Here it is demonstrated that possessing good technical skills does not necessarily mean diving into the wonders of jazz-metal or the cynicism of guitar-heroes, but a 'serene' coexistence of a rational and a chaotic aspect is possible.

 Explore Utopia Banished to experience Napalm Death's masterful blend of brutal intensity and punk spirit!

 The filtered vocals of Azagthoth/Tucker are a downright disaster, a real assault on the listener’s mental health.

 FFTF is a mishmash of half-ideas that should be in 3 different albums.

 Voivod must "just" be perceived for what they are.

 A really surprising work, which I appreciated from the very first listen, but one that requires certain attention to be digested.

 Dive into Voivod’s Dimension Hatross to experience a genre-defying metal journey that challenges and excites the listener.

 Once you get past the initial prejudice that every AC/DC album without Bon Scott should be considered rubbish, we can start discussing this one.

 AC/DC are self-celebratory but accessible to everyone, proud opponents of musical intellectualism, of progressive, of sophistication, and of mind games.

 We are light years away from the compactness of 'Butchered At Birth', the disturbing sounds of 'Tomb Of The Mutilated', and the 'accessibility' of 'Vile'.

 Probably the compositional skill of the O'Brien/Owen duo is higher than shown here, but credit must be given for their ability to decently play tracks like 'No Remorse' by Metallica, at times better than the original(!), if it weren’t for Fisher’s growling.

 Explore Cannibal Corpse's Worm Infested to decide if this brief MCD suits your death metal taste!

 A beautiful idea, developed with lower tunings than hell, with vocal parts entrusted to a violin, and a dark atmosphere that no band with “rock instrumentation” has ever managed to recreate.

 Those who appreciate classical music without being a devotee of the genre will surely love the sounds of “Cult,” which however might push, in some tracks, to skip directly to the next piece.

 Dive into Apocalyptica’s Cult and experience the intense blend of classical elegance and metal power today!

 It’s a fundamental work for the Italian progressive scene, showing they had something to say to their renowned German and English peers.

 A perfect 'fusion' between baroque classical music, experimentation, and rock 'n roll.

 Dive into Banco del Mutuo Soccorso's debut album and experience the birth of Italian progressive rock!

 41 minutes of ferocious and dreamlike sounds, worthy of the worst nightmares each of us has.

 Morbid Angel takes a step forward, daring something more, striving not just to hit hard, but to shake, to fill every frequency of the amplifier.

 Dive into Morbid Angel's Covenant and experience one of death metal's most groundbreaking and intense albums today!

 Particularly annoying is a certain doomish cadence, truly tedious and unengaging, and tracks extended to the listener's suicide.

 Their sound is characterized by an ultra-compressed bass, tuned to lower tones than hell, capable of somewhat repetitive introductory arpeggios.
