Incredibly honored to have “Glacial” reviewed by NO CLEAN SINGING! Be sure to check out the full review which is linked in the comment section of the original post!

If you want to know what you may have missed out on hearing last month, Andy Synn has a bumper crop of records to recommend from across the sonic spectrum, featuring the likes of:

"This Baltimore-based group – who have earned themselves a new fan in me with this album – deal in a bright, melodic, yet also oddly melancholic, mix of Emo/Indie, Dance Rock, Shoegaze and mathy Post-Hardcore that should (hopefully) appeal to those amongst our readers who are already fans of Astronoid, Good Tiger, and latter-day AFI." - Body Thief

"Proudly wearing their influences on their collective sleeve(s) – think the nihilistic nastiness of Integrity, the ear-bleeding intensity of Earth Crisis and the monstrous impact of Merauder – but cranking up the heaviness to obnoxious, almost Death Metal levels, the group stamp their mark on things hard on 'Exoterror'. - DIVISION OF MIND

"The long-awaited fourth full-length from these Michigan metallers continues to open up multiple new creative avenues which the band - with their inventive brand of “Blackened Progressive Sludge" – are keen to explore." - Pan

"This shift away from the frantic, almost Mathcore-ish approach of their debut towards a much more introspective (albeit, still impressively intense when it needs to be) sound has, in truth, done wonders for the band’s sonic identity, opening them up to new ways of creating and communicating that have allowed them to become their best selves." - The Prestige

"Easily one of the best Doom albums of the year, possessing a scintillating sense of grandeur and a vivid artistic vision thoroughly befitting the similarly epic and evocative artwork that adorns its cover (which is also in the running for one of the best album covers of the year too), 'Anthems…' starts off very strong with the sombre grandeur and soaring gloom of “The Axiom” and only gets stronger as the record goes on." - SolNegre

"Whereas their earlier material leaned heavily on the band’s Immolation influences and Morbid Angel-isms (which is no bad thing) their sound on The Oblation… has expanded in a direction closer to that of Ulcerate (especially during the album’s more oppressive and claustrophobic moments) and Svart Crown (circa Profane) that highlights a newfound focus on space and texture, shape and tension, rather than simple OTT aggression." - Towering
