Scald – Relics
Metalcatto
As you know, we almost never cover EPs, but today we’re talking about Scald. Probably the most important Doom Metal band from the land of cheap booze and great writers—I wonder if those two are connected. Scald already had a comeback that made me fanboy around, but could Relics have a similar effect? Can it keep changing a formula so old yet so effective? Yes? I’m kind of excited. Deal with it.
Wailin Storms – The Arsonist
Metalcatto
With an album named The Arsonist, you’d expect Wailin Storms to blast this place out of existence. Yet what I found was a strange concoction of Heavy Metal, Gothic Rock, and Blues. I don’t quite know how to label it—it sounds almost rural to my city ears. But this band comes from Season of Mist, and we all know they only sign bands that are marketable… I mean, excellent! So with that in mind, let’s dive into this thing with as much optimism as possible.
Iron Slaught – Metallic Torments
Metalcatto
There are days when I wake up and actually don’t feel like putting myself through the most disgusting, inhumane, or nihilist music you people drop on our mailbox. Sometimes I want to feel life has a purpose—even if it doesn’t. So how about a Speed Metal band like Iron Slaught? Metallic Torment should be everything I find cheesy, but this is a French band, and you know Metal is the only thing where we don’t hate on them. In fact, we love their work. So let’s see if we can keep that going—the love, I mean, not the hate.

Khemmis – Khemmis
Metalcatto
At this point, you know I like Doom, but I’m not Pegah, so my level of fanaticism is relatively sober. However, if there’s one Doom band that makes me feel like a cat on catnip, it’s Khemmis. Sure, the band still has yet to surpass its first two albums, but everything afterward has been nothing but quality. That’s why you’d expect Khemmis to be a display of the band’s experience and maturity, right? You know, these guys know the game. Or so I hope.
