“Chris of Wilderness's 9th album Smoke Up Every Mountain puts it's hat in the ring for the dankest record of the year award.”
Cold, hypnotic, and heavy with devotion: shelovesmolly feat grimslilreaper's kiss666 (Kota Kira Remix) rebuilds post-punk as haunting witch house, two lovers circling each other like ghosts. Arcane Synthetic's A New Era & Nothing More: Part I moves through industrial abrasion and dark ambient landscapes — cinematic, confrontational, immersive. Chalice Sect's Finis Initii delivers pulsating EBM-charged darkwave for modern goth clubgoers, while Jacob's Fall's The War We Miss? conjures something symphonic, melancholic, and sinfully counterintuitive. Dino DiMuro's Old Fart At Play takes on the notoriously difficult Trout Mask Replica with raw, unmastered devotion.
