Cast In Fire
Self-Immolation
Self Released
Madison’s own… kind of a progressive thrashy death metal, guttural vocals, shrieks and a catchy sometimes melodic and always heavy base of grooving goodness! Great stuff!

Imperium Dekadenz
Into Sorrow Evermore
Napalm
This is kind of a doomy post black metal type thing, a bit depressing and cold

Katatonia
Sky Void of Stars
Napalm
Melodic, a bit doom-ish and progressive, I’ve always thought of them of an Opeth light, cool stuff.

Prong
“Breaking Point”
(Napalm)
Boom! A new Prong song, written while on tour with BLS, guess what? Pinch Harmonics! But the good thing about Prong is they (well, Tommy Victor) has his own catchy cool sound that’s unmistakeably Prong… and I love prong!

We originally got this middle of 2022 as a self released album and it even hit the Mosh Pit top 10, now it’s reissued on Scarlet records.. worth another play! here’s the review from then..

Jan 20
Progressive rock/hard rock. The first track is like almost all electronic and had me scared for a second! Has a very 80’s sound. The rest of it picks up a little bit… still has an electronica (drum/keyboard) feel, but still very much prog rock.
