Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Yer Metal Is Olde: Mastodon – Blood Mountain: A year ago to the day, the metal community tragically lost Brent Hinds. Three weeks from now, metalheads can observe a joyous anniversary involving Hinds: Blood Mountain turns 20. The convergence of these anniversaries must be disorienting for the remaining members of Mastodon, who recently released a tribute to their fallen brother. In the video, Brann… http://dlvr.it/TV607J LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 The Night Eternal – Cold Velvet Review: Do you, like me, ever find yourself missing the sheer metallic perfection of the first few Mercyful Fate albums? Both Melissa and Don’t Break the Oath cast such a brilliantly macabre, occult atmosphere that they surely amplified the already palpable Satanic Panic of the mid-80s. Good things never last, but for a brief time, In Solitude managed to partially… http://dlvr.it/TV5qNC LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Fejd – Nifelheim Review: Vengeful trickster fairies, a realm of impenetrable cold and boundless frost, a dragon gnawing away at the roots of the World Tree; Norse iconography is intense, and metal bands have known this at least since Led Zeppelin. Sweden’s Fejd, a folk metal group formed in 2001 from the folk duo Rimmerfors and the prog-thrash band Pathos,1 have been weaving Norse history and… http://dlvr.it/TV5gtT LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Street Tombs – Existence is Corruption Review: Sometimes it just feels good to let rip some ferocious riffs, pound the drums at headbanging velocity, and rail about society’s ills at a pitch that a caveman can appreciate. At least that’s how I imagine New Mexico’s Street Tombs approaches their songwriting. In 2023, they gave out a good ol’ thrashing on their debut, Reclusive Decay, which didn’t see… http://dlvr.it/TV5FdS LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Utilize the Remains – Meaningless Existence Review: It is summer, and summer is for MOAR SLAMS!!! 2026 hasn’t seen the most plentiful harvest from the most cavebrained of death metal subsets, but with choice items from acts like Glassbone, Utter Scorn, Onchocerciasis Esophagogastroduodenoscopy, and Gravecrawler, I’ve been able to keep my slam cravings moderately maintained. Alas, the hunger grows… http://dlvr.it/TV4nnx LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Fen – Elemental Part One: Mourning Earth Review: London, England’s Fen has a storied history at AMG, with five reviews spread across three different writers. The illustrious Madame X reviewed them thrice with mixed results, followed by Doom_et_Al’s laudatory commentary on The Dead Light and, most recently, Cherd’s favorable-but-less-impressed impression of Monuments to Absence. You should read their… http://dlvr.it/TV4BGw LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Argul – Soledad & Orgullo Review: You’ve likely never heard of him, but Mauricio Guerrero has been a busy man of late. I hadn’t either, until Peruvian stoner-doom band Illwind, featuring lead guitar from Guerrero, dropped their debut album in early July. Clarkkent’s positive review of The Unfolding at the End of Light drew my attention to this ‘chill record with some outstanding moments,’ many of… http://dlvr.it/TV3vN3 LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Record(s) o’ the Month – May 2026: Wow. Wasn’t May just the other day? It seems like it to me! The fifth month of our Lord bestowed much quality material on us, and there were at least 4 key releases that garnered strong, fanboying support from the AMG peanut gallery located deep in the recesses of the Skull Pit. Funny thing about that gallery – they’re all tasteless hacks, but they’re OUR tasteless… http://dlvr.it/TV34Jw LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Dymna Lotva – Vyraj Review: The power of storytelling is well-known to Belarusian post-black outcasts Dymna Lotva. Their previous album, The Land Under the Black Wings: Blood, progressed that series through tragic true and folkloric tales, its overt tragedy in this sense bringing the real devastation wracking their native and settled home countries.1 Vyraj sees Dymna Lotva continue to communicate… http://dlvr.it/TV2YXz LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Ironflame – Worlds to Conquer Review: Besides thrash, heavy metal played a pivotal role in shaping my relationship with metal. Black Sabbath and Rainbow informed my earliest dalliances with the genre, and soon after my listening plate was laden with Maiden and greased with Priest. These bands and others set my sacred heart aflame with heavy metal thunder, and since then I’ve stood atop a gleaming… http://dlvr.it/TV1zYY LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Soulgrind – Ad Pulchram Mortem Review: When Lord Heikkinen formed Soulgrind in 1992, it was a rough and raw solo death/doom band. He released two EPs and two LPs between 1993 and 1995 for the now-defunct Malodorous Mangled Innards Records before deciding to invite some band members along for the ride. This would drastically alter Soulgrind’s musical direction towards gothic black/thrash, a decision… http://dlvr.it/TV1L5h LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Abyssal Rift – Relics of Great Ash Review: Columbus, Ohio, is the home of the dynamic duo behind Abyssal Rift, and they’re the proud owners of a band logo so completely unintelligible that we could have used it during WWII to utterly flummox the Nazi codebreakers. On sophomore outing Relics of Great Ash, the twosome throw gnarly chunks of Immolation, Incantation, and Ulcerate at the slaughterhouse… http://dlvr.it/TV1642 LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Gravecrawler – Nidus Review: Sometimes you need an album that slaps. An album to lower the type of smackdown to make The Rock jealous, an album that brings out the joyful superlatives and meme-tier descriptors. Swedish death is the lynchpin of this idea, the undying zombie of subgenres, the style that spits in the face of innovation and artistic wankery in the name of digging further and further… http://dlvr.it/TV0Wm0 LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Destroy My Brains – Wilt Review: I’ve recently decided to devote more attention to self-released projects. Some of the most interesting metal exists far outside the usual channels, grinding away in the shadows while willing listeners dig beneath the surface for uncut gems. Saskatchewan, Canada’s Destroy My Brains has been doing exactly that since its 2017 self-titled debut, following it with 2017’s… http://dlvr.it/TV0H6G LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 The Absolution Sequence – Dread Cycle: Tasmania—outside of their famous adorable screaming murder marsupials, I know basically nothing about the island. Recently, though, Tasmania’s The Absolution Sequence seized and held my attention with everything surrounding their debut record, Dread Cycle.1 Sublime cover art by Tasmanian artist Shaun Hyatt. Technical death metal that, according to promo,… http://dlvr.it/TTzZ75 LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Megascavenger – Toxic Noxious Undeath Review: It’s been a minute since I danced with a Rogga project. The man of a million bands is ever industrious and cranks out material like Doc Grier churns profanity in the AMG Slack channels. Megascavenger is one of the man’s countless projects, side quests, and diversions. Surprise, surprise, it’s Swedeath, and along with the HM-2 buzz and fuzz, there are a… http://dlvr.it/TTzMgY LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Raunchy – Prisoner Review: Holy shit, I thought these dudes were gone forever! A guilty pleasure, Raunchy hasn’t released an album since I last reviewed them in my first year as an idiotic dumbass Angry Metal writer. But no one has heard from them in a long fucking time. When I first discovered their impressive 2008 release, Wasteland Discotheque, I was on a kick to explore the underground who’s who… http://dlvr.it/TTyksR LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Only Echoes – Born Adrift Review: Metal is filled with reluctant vocalists. Whether it’s Dave Mustaine ultimately deciding to front Megadeth, or Mikael Åkerfeldt hesitantly filling the void in Opeth, or Troy Sanders and Brent Hinds eventually co-voicing Mastodon,1 vocals often exist in the genre as an afterthought. But what happens when there’s no after to the afterthought? You get something like… http://dlvr.it/TTyXpq LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Xandria – Eclipse Review: I was surprised to learn that we’ve never reviewed Xandria here. The German project of one Marco Heubaum (who covers guitars, keys, and the odd vocal spot), Xandria released their first full-length in 2003, performing gothic and, eventually, symphonic power metal. They first grabbed me with 2012’s Neverworld’s End, a fantastic orchestral metal album that I still enjoy… http://dlvr.it/TTxskK LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Temple of Dread – Dreadspawn Dominion Review: Hailing from the East Frisian Island of Spiekeroog, German death metallers Temple of Dread have been kicking around since 2017. After 2019 debut LP, Blood Carving Mantras, the illustrious Holdeneye saw fit to review their sophomore effort, World Sacrifice, in 2020. He commended them for their ferocity and adherence to the olde ways, but he would have… http://dlvr.it/TTxZHP LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Vauruvã – Mar da Deriva [Things You Might Have Missed 2025]: Folky black metal enjoyed much success in 2025. February alone held an embarrassment of riches, offering delicacies from Scotland (Saor), Siberia (Grima), and Finland (Havukruunu). In August, Sgah’gahsowáh dropped the much-hyped Blackbraid III, continuing his evocation of Adirondack landscapes. And on Halloween, New York’s Yellow Eyes… http://dlvr.it/TTwzDx LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Vertiginous – Incessant Affliction Review: Bludgeoning, bruising, and belligerent, brutal death metal beats listeners down into bloody paste when it does its job right. Indonesian duo Vertiginous takes this direction to heart, holding back nothing as they trounce on listeners with nary a batted eye. The pair released debut Reek of Putrefaction on Excruciating Lust in 2024, and now Hendika Dwi… http://dlvr.it/TTwTGD LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Hulder – Verbolgen Review: According to the interwebz, “verbolgen” is a Dutch word that roughly translates to “angry” or “outraged,” most often intended for formal contexts. This definition fits nicely into the overall execution of Washington black metal duo Hulder’s music, especially remembering the visceral tear of 2024’s Verses in Oath. While my dear sharkfren Carcharodon originally highly rated… http://dlvr.it/TTvnGX LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Die Entweihung – Worldwide Terror Review: Much of underground metal is fueled by the devotion of single-minded enthusiasts. For every obscure band that spends years lingering between major releases, there are several solitary creators like Gary Brents or Damián Antón Ojeda whose prolific output forms a substantial part of the genre’s global ecosystem. Die Entweihung is one such project, serving as… http://dlvr.it/TTvZjs LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Horrifier – Revelations of Gore Review: Considering I was hired 3000 years ago by the Almighty AMG Himself to be the “power metal guy,” I sure do end up reviewing a lot of moldy death metal. Toss Norway’s Horrifier on the rotpit next as I tackle their sophomore slab of purulence, Revelations of Gore. With cover art straight from the early 90s, Horrifier regale you with tales of body horror, serial… http://dlvr.it/TTtqY7 LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Vetter – Sort var Bogen der Bragte Os Hid Review: One-man Norwegian black metal is almost a cliché—the quintessential “oh, of course it is” of black metal. As a reviewer, one-man black metal of most varieties excites me, because, as far as quality goes, you really have no idea what you’re going to get. Take Vetter, for example: active since 2005, the solo project of multi-instrumentalist Håvard… http://dlvr.it/TTtcsd LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Saprovore – Numinous Abditory Deflagration Review: Numinous (adj.): evoking a sense of the mystical, sublime, or transcendent; awe-inspiring. Abditory (n.): a concealed location used for storage or to hide items (rare). Deflagration (n.): the act of deflagrating; an intense fire; a conflagration or explosion. Specifically, combustion that spreads subsonically via thermal conduction.1 Yup, it’s an I,… http://dlvr.it/TTszDV LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal

Angry Metal Guy 🤘 Hexorcist – Crucificial Imprecations Review: Florida: birthplace of the first personal computer, endless just-barely-believable news stories, the modern sports drink, and death metal. Since the birth of Florida’s death metal scene in the late 80s and early 90s, the state has produced countless acts of varying quality and recognition. Among them is Hexorcist, forged in Miami’s oppressive heat in… http://dlvr.it/TTsjb5 LinkInBio for More 🤘 #AngryMetalGuy #HeavyMetal #Metal
