Metal music

This is our pain — and theirs: Splendidula's Absentia blends black metal and doom with fragile atmospheric grief, shaped by devastating loss and featuring guests Aaron Stainthorpe and Tim Yatras. Industrial powerhouse I Ya Toyah's FEELINGS turns the mirror on modern humanity with biting irony and unapologetic force, exposing a culture of performative outrage and quiet conformity. Jonathan Hadley's Damages navigates CPTSD with raw honesty — trauma without a villain, just the disconnect between need and what a world can provide. Bloodshot Cyclops rages with metallically bombastic thrash rock and sarcastically stupid lyrics — think Motörhead meets Stormtroopers of Death — while Powerlöad's In The Pocket delivers unabashed Canadian slut rock.
