Same old, let’s go!
Suffering so you don't have to!

Aeons ago, when the members of Gorguts released another great Death Metal album, little did they know they would eventually help invent one of the most influential subgenres in the game: Disso-Death. Now, with no guarantee that we’ll ever get another Gorguts album, it’s time to rank the ones we have.

I was almost sure Lugubrious Garment was just another Death Metal band trying to make a living off our nostalgia for dirty riffs and crusty production. Even the artwork for In the Wide Vale of Uncreated Night screams rancid riffs 24/7, with little else besides rage and bad decisions. Maybe they’ll surprise us, maybe they’ll disappoint us, but who cares? Ah, right. I should. Let’s get to it.

Time to redeem myself from past mistakes, especially because I actually received some of these promos. I just didn’t see them in time. As tragic as when you dropped that ice cream at the local fair when you were three. Needless to say, these albums are easy 4/5 on my list. Now that we’ve got the lame numbers out of the way, let’s show some hidden pearls.

If you’re deep in the underground, you’ll probably have heard of Dream Unending and the great Song of Salvation. It’s an album that took Tomb Mold and made it an atmospheric journey. Now, Certain Uncertainties has big shoes to fill. Is it going to get heavier or weirder? It feels like both can’t go at the same time, right? The guys have a few choices, and they all come with risks. Let’s see what happened in the end.

Time to give back to the deep underground. We’ve talked about HKSPK—I know, it sounds like the name of a K-pop band—before in our feedback special, but today we’re not pulling any punches. We’ll review Heimkehr with all the brutality of the law. The guys had their chance, so now they’re going to get a full review and get judged like a proper high-league act. Okay, I’m just scaring people off now, but I had to raise the stakes, right?

I’m back, I’m back. Yeah, yeah, I get it. What other way to punish myself for my absence than to listen to half an hour of punishing, brutal death metal shipped to me all the way from Jakarta, Indonesia? Well, the music being from abroad is actually a push for me to get back to Metal Eclipse Reviewin’. Vertiginous is the lucky band to break my brutal death metal fast; their second record, Incessant Affliction, hopefully leaving me like the unfortunate guy in the bottom-left corner of the album cover: stabbed in the back and haunted by a thousand souls. Either that, or impressed. We’ll see.
