Wreck and Reference - Black Cassette (Remastered)



A remastered version of Wreck and Reference's Black Cassette was added to the Flenser Records Bandcamp. This is experimental doom/noise rock, done without guitars, they use keyboards, synths, samples, and excellent drumming to provide the heavy sounds. The vocals and the almost "poppy" feel of some of the tracks makes it sound kind of like The Cure playing doom. Here are two reviews from Don't Count on it Reviews and Invisible Oranges and an interview from Cvlt Nation.

The original (non-remastered) version of Black Cassette is available from Wreck and Reference's own Bandcamp

Liber Necris - The Immutable Aversion


Art by Drew Millward

Liber Necris - The Immutable Aversion is death metal. Not old school or technical or progressive, 'just' slightly blackened pummeling death metal. With an excellent production. Another great find from No Clean Singing, read the review by Islander.

XII Boar - Split Tongue, Cloven Hoof



XII Boar's new EP Split Tongue, Cloven Hoof is riff heavy, galloping stoner metal. Doom grooves and sludgy sections adds to the atmosphere. Read this review from No Clean Singing that describes the band as a mix of High On Fire and Motörhead.
