An Elegy in Riffs: Albums to Help You Heal
Metalcatto
Time flies when you’re mourning. It feels like yesterday when Pappa Catto left for Valhalla. This past year, there were albums I would turn to when the emotional mess hit me hardest. You know what I’m talking about: the deep ache of loss and the nagging sense of existential meaninglessness, paired with the paradoxical need for brutal riffs to power through the day. Here are some of those albums that helped me navigate the pain. Maybe they can help you, too.

Pegah Interviews Lying Figures!
Pegah
Hey guys! We’re back with another interview, this time with French Doom/Death Metal band Lying Figures. Formed in 2012 in Nancy, the band began shaping their identity through the 2013 demo From Nowhere to Nothing and the EP A World Of My Own (2014). Over the years, Lying Figures steadily developed its voice within the underground Metal scene, leading to the release of its debut album The Abstract Escape in 2017 — an evocative journey through fractured psyches, dark emotions, and oppressive atmospheres. Its latest album, Inheritance, released in November 2024, marks a new chapter in the band’s evolution. A full review of the album is also available on our website.

Metalcatto’s Top Progressive Metal Albums of 2025
Metalcatto
Just like last year, I leave the subgenre that contains my album of the year for last. It’s been a great year for Prog, honestly. At first it didn’t seem that way, but just like a 20-minute-long track, it gained momentum little by little (who am I kidding, you can’t sit through 20 minutes of anything). Anyway, let’s get to it.
