Gotta Rank’em All: Every Sylosis Album Ranked
Metalcatto
For some reason that goes beyond my comprehension, Sylosis doesn’t get the love it deserves from us—the media, the critics, the tastemakers. It’s baffling. So I’m here to try to make amends. Let’s go. Enough sleeping on greatness. It’s time to give credit where it’s long overdue.
Releases that almost fell through the cracks
Metalcatto
These are some albums or EPs I almost forgot about. What can I say? Promos get buried by other promos in the endless waterfall of emails we need to sort out every single day. Mercy, please (but don’t stop, ok?)
Astriferous – Atavistic Unraveling
Metalcatto
It’s been some time since I dared to return to the oversaturated nightmare that old school Death Metal has become. Astriferous has at least a name that indicates the band feels serious and comfortable in its corpse skin. Atavistic Unraveling should have enough tentacles for everyone. I’m just worried about the adrenaline dump this might cause me if it’s too old school.

Sarcasm – Lifeforce Omnibound
Metalcatto
Among the bands with some of the best names there’s Sarcasm—do I mean that? I guess you’ll never know. The band has its own approach to Death Metal, and needless to say, I approached their work with curiosity and even excitement. It’s not that I’m a diehard fan or anything, but you know weirdness and idiosyncratic moves are what we live and die for at MER. Keep on reading and find out.
Six Feet Under – Next to Die
Metalcatto
Six Feet Under is back, and honestly, I’m terrified. Not because of how ruthless the material could be, but because in case you don’t know, the band has become a meme in our community regarding all the things you shouldn’t do as an old Death Metal band. So is Next to Die going to torture me out of this job? Is it going to be the most painful experience I have this year? You can see that my expectations are at least realistic.

Releases the almost fell through the cracks
Metalcatto
Mistakes were made. Some by me, some by the rest of the MER staff—you know who you are, I’ll find you. So this is the time for us to acknowledge the most important releases that I kept procrastinating to the point that I forgot and then said, “well, shoot. Now I need to write something short about them.” Let’s go.
