Well Fed in Kraków

Two pigeons on the cobbles with a torn piece of bread roll just behind them, both walking away from it. In most cities bread on the ground is gone in seconds. Well-fed pigeons!...

Well Fed in Kraków

https://inphotos.org/2026/08/15/well-fed-in-krakow/

"The #Detroit #RidefortheLiving is one of many around the globe that are adjuncts to the original Ride for the Living, held every year in #Poland. The original Ride begins at the nefarious #Nazi #concentrationcamp at #Auschwitz- #Birkenau, Poland, and ends at the #Jewish Community Center in #Kraków, Poland.

This international Ride for the Living takes place over four days in Poland in June. It features a 60-mile #bike ride as well as other activities related to the #Holocaust and Jewish community #history. It ends with a #Shabbat dinner. Most important, the Ride commemorates those who were lost in the Holocaust and the resilience of the Jewish people. It’s an impressive event. Just ask Cheryl and Arnie Berlin who took the Ride in Poland (June 7, 2018).

The JCC in Kraków is a prime exemplar for survival and resilience. Before World War II, Poland had the largest Jewish population in #Europe at 3 million."

Michał Dobrzyński o konnych dorożkach w czasie sesji Rady Miasta Krakowa: "(...) skoro Kraków od dawna nie utrzymuje tramwajów konnych czy konnych pojazdów straży pożarnej to nie ma powodu, by akurat turystyczne dorożki traktować jako nietykalny element »dziedzictwa«. (...) wiele dawnych praktyk znika, bo pojawia się technologia, wiedza, etyka czy po prostu społeczne standardy, a co istotne, równolegle z rozwojem dorożek rozwijała się krytyka złego traktowania zwierząt. (...) Jeżeli ktoś mówi, że dorożki są krakowską tradycją, można mu powiedzieć, że krakowską tradycją jest również sprzeciw wobec dręczenia koni. Jeżeli mamy wybierać, jaką tradycję Krakowa chcemy kontynuować wybierzmy tę, która od XIX wieku próbowała ograniczać cierpienie zwierząt, a nie tę która opierała się na ich pracy ponad siły".

Kamila Nalepa o konnych dorożkach w czasie sesji Rady Miasta Krakowa: "(...) los tych koni (...) zaczyna się w momencie, gdy trafiają do zaprzęgu. Przez wszystkie lata, gdy ciągnęły turystów były wymieniane na nowe, gdy się zużyły i trafiały do rzeźni. Były ich setki. Obecne konie to nie pierwsze konie, które harowały na Rynku. To kolejne konie w ciągłym cyklu wyzysku - »zużyj i wymień«. Poprzednie już nie żyją, bo traktowane są, jak sprzęt roboczy, który wymienia się na nowy. Przeciwnicy zakazu sami przyznają to sugerując, że konie trafią do rzeźni, bo wiedzą, że tam właśnie kończą te konie, które pracowały".

Monika Konieczna (Akcja dla Krakowa) o konnych dorożkach w czasie sesji Rady Miasta Krakowa: [transport alternatywny dla dorożek konnych - dop. WiZ] "to jest rozwiązanie, które jest możliwe, które możemy wprowadzić dzisiaj, które pokaże pewien postęp cywilizacyjny. Nie wymaga to też żadnego wypłacania odszkodowań, dlatego że te umowy się kończą w 2027 roku, więc można ich po prostu nie przedłużać, ale jest to też wystarczający czas, bo to jest niemal 1,5 roku, na to żeby znaleźć alternatywy, żeby inaczej zorganizować swoją działalność gospodarczą i dalej móc płacić podatki, ale nie używając do tego koni".

Elżbieta Wierciak o konnych dorożkach w czasie sesji Rady Miasta Krakowa: "Dane naukowe wskazują jasno, że konie są narażone na przegrzanie od 25°C i to w miejscu, w którym się znajdują, a nie w cieniu. Mówimy tutaj o Rynku Głównym - postoju wybitnie nagrzanym, gdzie temperatura przy kopytach bywa znacznie wyższa niż ta pokazywana na termometrze [na zacienionej ścianie Sukiennic - dop. WiZ]. Zadaje to ogromne cierpienie koniom, które muszą stać w miejscu bez możliwości schronienia się w cieniu, czy realizacji podstawowych potrzeb gatunkowych (...)".

Oliwia Piotrowska-Wieczorek w czasie sesji Rady Miasta Krakowa: "Dorożkarstwo wpisuje się w niesławny trend nieetycznych atrakcji bazujących na krzywdzie zwierząt (...) Miasto musi reagować na zmieniające się realia, brać pod uwagę aktualną wiedzę naukową z zakresu dobrostanu i behawioru zwierząt, jak również rosnącą wrażliwość społeczną w kontekście dbania o dobrostan zwierząt. Miasto nie może ignorować światowego trendu etycznej turystyki. Turystyka z powodzeniem adaptuje się do pojawiających się nowych form zwiedzania i etycznych alternatyw".

Czy można tworzyć ładne pamiątki? Tak!
W Krakowie znajdziecie takie na Placu Mariackim 3, tuz obok Kościoła Mariackiego. Pod tym adresem znajduje się sklep, w którym znany krakowski fotograf Przemek Czaja sprzedaje swoje fotografie. W sklepie znajdziecie również jego książkę oraz kartki, magnesy i mnóstwo innych pamiątek z reprodukcjami jego fotografii.
Fotografie Przemka są dla mnie nieustającą inspiracją, więc z całego serca polecam jego twórczość!

Monika Kohut o konnych dorożkach w czasie sesji Rady Miasta Krakowa: "(...) wąska grupa ludzi czerpiąca zysk z tej anachronicznej »rozrywki«, bo mówimy tutaj o 24 podmiotach gospodarczych, usiłuje zatrzymać Kraków mentalnie w XIX wieku".

"(...) na pewno nie są nam potrzebne dorożki konne w Krakowie. Na pewno ta praca zwierząt, to wykorzystanie zwierząt nie jest w dzisiejszych czasach potrzebne".

Wystąpienie Barbary Niedźwiedzkiej (Chrześcijanie dla zwierząt) w czasie sesji Rady Miasta Krakowa.

🔴 "Wykorzystywaliśmy różnych słabszych od nas, podległych do pracy na naszą rzecz. Czy mamy to utrzymać, dlatego że tak zawsze było? Że zawsze byli chłopi pańszczyźniani czy niewolnicy, czy dzieci wykorzystywane do pracy, czy kobiety? Zawsze ma tak być, bo tak było. NO NIE. To jest absolutny absurd. Jesteśmy w XXI wieku, możemy zastąpić pracę zwierząt pracą maszyn. Mamy ogromne tutaj możliwości i nasze konie, którym tyle zawdzięczamy, tak ogromnie dużo zawdzięczamy, mogą przejść na emeryturę".

Krakowski spleen

Rezultaty krakowskiego referendum to niewątpliwie cios dla Koalicji Obywatelskiej, choć nie tak mocne uderzenie, jak się wydaje. Na początku muszę się przyznać, że samego Krakowa nie znam i nie do końca rozumiem, czym Prezydent tak wkurzył mieszkańców. Mam kilka hipotez będących rezultatem śledzenia internetu, które są dla mnie grzechami głównymi polskich samorządowców. Postaram się tu owe grzechy pokazać w formule ogólnej, nie warunkując, które po niespełna dwóch latach pogrążyły Misztalskiego.

Grzech 1: Arogancja

Pojawia się coraz wcześniej. Kiedyś topiła długoletnich działaczy, dziś toną „świeżaki”. Realnie czy w sposób udawany – zarządzający musi „czuć ból” mieszkańców. Absolutnie nie może udowadniać, że ma rację (nawet jeśli obiektywnie ją ma). Pokora, im trudniejsza, tym jest ważniejsza dla społecznego odbioru.

Grzech 2: Towarzysze i koledzy

Zawsze będą, bo zaufanie jest w polityce wielokrotnie ważniejsze od kompetencji. Tak było, jest i będzie. Ale kompetencje muszą występować w ilościach większych niż śladowe, a pazerność musi być ograniczana. Łatwo powiedzieć, bo zaplecze trudno jest w rozbudowanej biurokracji kontrolować, a ludzie chcą żyć dostatnio. Ideałem jest posiadanie kilku zaufanych i trzeźwych osób, które kontrolują resztę. Ale tu przeszkodą bywa punkt pierwszy. No i warto, żeby oświadczenia majątkowe ten, kto nominuje kandydata, czytał przed ich publikacją.

Grzech 3: Deweloperzy

Relacje z budowlanką to rak toczący wszystkie polskie miasta. Pozorna przejrzystość w tym zakresie to nic trudnego. W praktyce gąszcz przepisów podlewany tematami reprywatyzacyjnych zaległości prowadzi do powstania silnie toksycznego środowiska. W rezultacie z pazernością deweloperów przegrywają tak przyroda, jak i dobro publiczne. A czasami nawet bezpieczeństwo budowli.

Grzech 4: Festyny i festiwale

Kiedy mieszkańcy widzą kolejny „Sylwester z…”, to wiedzą: festiwal tego i owego, a koło domu dziurawy chodnik… Cóż, potrafi to zdenerwować. Artyści to prostytutki i będą prawić komplementy każdemu, kto da pieniądze. Ale artyści nie dają szczególnie dużo głosów w porównaniu z mieszkańcami. I ogrzewanie się w ich blasku to najczęściej mit.

Grzech 5: Polityka krajowa

Wielki problem ludzi „podpiętych” pod mateczkę partię. Kiedy mateczka partia stoi dobrze, to i sypnie groszem, i na inwestycje da. Ale co, jak marnieje w opozycji? Niestety, ogólnopolskie problemy potrafią mieć istotne przełożenie lokalne. Bez winy lokalnych polityków, ale bycie „mini-Kaczyńskim” czy „mini-Tuskiem” jest nieuniknione. A wtedy 25–30% wyborców nigdy na nas nie zagłosuje.

Podsumowanie – trudno być dobrym samorządowcem

Dość łatwo jednak być przeciętnym. W większości przypadków to wystarcza, bo oczekiwania są raczej niskie – tu ciepła woda w kranie nie jest metaforą. Ale im bogatsza okolica, tym bardziej rosną oczekiwania i poczucie niezaspokojenia. Zwłaszcza kiedy miasto posiada europejskie ambicje i polski budżet. Czasami kończy się tak jak wczoraj w Krakowie. Czy nowy prezydent poradzi sobie lepiej niż odwołany? Wątpię.

Krakow time! Looking forward to have my talk at Digital Dragons conference tomorrow, just so I no longer need to think of how I’m going to fit all of the detail to a 45-minute presentation.

Still got one read-through to sort out today. One more round of proofing against the clock. Going to be a speedrun 😅

Dokładnie tydzień temu, w czasie protestu Kraków przeciwko Hunt Expo, głos zabrał m.in. prof. dr hab. Andrzej Elżanowski. Czy trzeba komuś tłumaczyć kim jest prof. Elżanowski? Raczej nie!

Na naszej stronie publikujemy całość przemówienia prof. Elżanowskiego, które odrobinę przeredagował, a poniżej dwa fragmenty:

"Bo przecież udział w polowaniach z zachęty i za przykładem rodziców prowadzi do uzależnienia – w sensie neuropsychologicznym – najpierw niepełnoletnich a potem osoby dorosłe od polowania jako sposobu na pobudzania mózgowego układu mezolimbicznego, potocznie znanego jako układ nagrody. Drugie zdanie art. 48 ust 1 Konstytucji pozwala na zakaz uzależnianie niepełnoletnich na przykład od alkoholu i nikotyny niezależnie od woli rodziców, a nawet umożliwia sądom ograniczenie praw rodzicielskich za jego łamanie".

"Niestety wiele dzieci wzoruje się na autorytecie rodziców i przestaje zwracać uwagę na śmierć i cierpienie zwierząt i postrzegać zło polowania na długo zanim staną się zdolne do oceny etycznej własnej działalności. A zdolność do refleksji meta-etycznej (czyli nad zastaną moralnością) zaczyna się właśnie około wieku pełnoletności, najwcześniej w wieku ok. lat 16. I właśnie dlatego socjalizacja do polowania jest pogwałceniem Konstytucji, która nakazuje uwzględnienie stopnia dojrzałości dziecka. Normalizacja przemocy umożliwia uzależnienie od polowania, a polowanie jest przypadkiem instrumentalnej agresji, która stymuluje układ nagrody w mózgu i dlatego jest odczuwana jako przyjemność".

Cyfrowa informacja w klasycznym wydaniu. Filharmonia Krakowska stawia na monitory Sony

Filharmonia im. Karola Szymanowskiego w Krakowie, jedna z najstarszych i najważniejszych instytucji muzycznych w Polsce, zdecydowała się na modernizację swojego systemu komunikacji wizualnej.

W foyer krakowskiego gmachu przy ul. Zwierzynieckiej pojawiły się profesjonalne panele Sony BRAVIA, które zastąpiły wysłużone urządzenia innej marki.

Wybór profesjonalnych monitorów do przestrzeni publicznej, jaką jest filharmonia, rzadko jest dziełem przypadku. Instytucja zdecydowała się na instalację czterech jednostek z serii Sony BRAVIA EZ20L. To linia zaprojektowana z myślą o rozwiązaniach typu Digital Signage, co w praktyce oznacza, że panele są przystosowane do pracy ciągłej i oferują znacznie wyższą trwałość oraz łatwiejsze zarządzanie treścią niż standardowe telewizory konsumenckie.

4K i profesjonalna optyka w foyer

Wdrożenie objęło cztery ekrany rozmieszczone w kluczowych punktach nawigacyjnych dla publiczności:

• Główne foyer: dwie jednostki służące jako główne punkty informacyjne o bieżącym repertuarze.
• Małe foyer (strefa kawiarni): dwie kolejne jednostki, które umilają czas oczekiwania na koncert, wyświetlając zapowiedzi spotkań autorskich, materiały edukacyjne oraz publikacje sponsorów.

Z technicznego punktu widzenia, seria EZ20L oferuje rozdzielczość 4K oraz matryce o wysokiej jasności z szerokimi kątami widzenia. Jest to kluczowe w przestrzeniach takich jak kawiarnia czy foyer, gdzie oświetlenie bywa zmienne, a widzowie patrzą na ekrany z różnych perspektyw.

Spójny ekosystem informacji

Przejście na profesjonalne rozwiązanie od Sony pozwala instytucji na sprawniejsze zarządzanie systemem informacji. Monitory te wspierają szybką konfigurację i łatwe przesyłanie materiałów graficznych oraz wideo, co przy dynamicznie zmieniającym się grafiku koncertów i wydarzeń edukacyjnych (od koncertów dla dzieci po wieczory mistrzowskie) jest dla obsługi technicznej sporym ułatwieniem.

Choć filharmonia kojarzy się przede wszystkim z tradycją i historią (sięgającą 1945 roku), to wdrożenie pokazuje, że nowoczesne panele 4K mogą stać się estetycznym i funkcjonalnym uzupełnieniem zabytkowych wnętrz, nie burząc przy tym podniosłej atmosfery miejsca.

Sony rozszerza portfolio. Nowy monitor OLED i otwarte zestawy audio

Mowa oczywiście tylko o polowaniach.
Myśliwi i myśliwe (tzw. diany) są w niemal każdej partii politycznej, od prawicy do lewicy. Są ponadpartyjnym tworem, który swego czasu bardzo trafnie nazwano Polską Partią Myśliwych, a także Rzeczpospolitą Myśliwych.

Pod koniec 2025 r. Ośrodek Działań Ekologicznych "Źródła" wysłał do wszystkich posłów i posłanek na Sejm RP pytanie dotyczące ich członkostwa w Polskim Związku Łowieckim. Ponad połowa z nich nie udzieliła żadnej odpowiedzi (sprawdźcie na stronie czypolujesz.pl). Czyżby wstydzili się swojej pasji? Czyżby wstydzili się członkostwa w organizacji zabijającej każdego roku setki tysięcy zwierząt?

Wydarzenia takie jak Hunt Expo to "tylko" jakieś tam targi myśliwskie, mógłby ktoś powiedzieć. Jednak ta pozornie neutralna "impreza" legitymizuje działania oparte na przemocy, bo tym wszakże są polowania - przemocą, w wyniku której zwierzę doznaje zranienia lub śmierci.

Zapraszamy 25 kwietnia o godzinie 12:00 na protest KRAKÓW PRZECIWKO HUNT EXPO.

Kraków wolny od myśliwych.
Lasy wolne od myśliwych.

#wimięzwierząt #zwierzęta #protest #kraków #myślistwo #myśliwi #pzł

"Myśliwi mówią: »My dokarmiamy zwierzęta, dzięki nam mogą przeżyć zimę«. To jeden z ich koronnych argumentów. Rzeczywiście dokarmiają - a potem te same zwierzęta zabijają" - Zenon Kruczyński "Farba znaczy krew".

📢 25 kwietnia odbędzie się Kraków przeciwko Hunt Expo - protest przeciwko targom myśliwskim.

Idiotyczna nazwa tego zespołu została wymyślona przez urzędników.

Słodycze na weganie w Krakowie? Zdecydowanie dobrym wyborem będzie Zielony Talerz (znany także jako Wegałki*) przy ul. Meiselsa 3.

Lody (ponad 20 smaków), Leśny Mech, czekoladowe rollsy, kurosanty potrójnie pistacjowe, tiramisu, tartaletki etc.

Jest moc. Zdecydowanie #polecajka

No i właściciele mają pod opieką sporo uratowanych zwierząt, w tym kury i kaczki.

*Wegałkowe lody można kupić m.in. w gdańskim SpożyVczaku.

Co jedzą polscy weganie?

Jedzą np. placki ziemniaczane w "Ino Placki. Krakoski Street Food" (ul. Stradomska 18, pod arkadami). Placek solo jest domyślnie wegański, w menu jest też placek z vege gulaszem (vege oznacza tutaj vegan).

Stuck in the Filter: August 2025’s Angry Misses

By Kenstrosity

The heat persists, but now the humidity comes in full force as storm systems wreak havoc upon the coasts. I hide in my cramped closet of an office, lest I be washed out once again by an unsuspecting deluge. However, I still send my minions out into the facility, bound by duty to search for those metallic scraps on which we feast.

Fortuitously, most all of those imps I sent out came back alive, and with wares! BEHOLD!

Kenstrosity’s Galactic Gremlin

Silent Millenia // Celestial Twilight: Beyond the Crimson Veil [August 26th, 2025 – Self-Release]

Have you ever seen such a delightfully cheesy cover? Probably, but it’s been a while for me. I bought Celestial Twilight: Beyond the Crimson Veil, the second raw symphonic black metal opus from Finnish one-man act Silent Millenia, on the strength of the artwork alone. Little did I know that what lay beyond this crimson veil was some of the most fun melodic black metal this side of Moonlight Sorcery. The same low-fi roughness that personifies Old Nick’s work grounds Silent Millenia’s starbound songwriting as it traverses the universe with an energetic punch reminiscent of Emperor or Stormkeep (“Awaken the Celestial Spell,” “Daemonic Mastery”). To help differentiate Silent Millenia’s sound from that of their peers, a gothic atmosphere ensorcells much of this material to great effect, merging eerie Victorian melodies with galactic adventurism in an unlikely pair (“Enthrone the Spectral”). Swirling synths and sparkling twinkles abound as well, creating blissful moments of interest as frosty tremolos and piercing blasts take full advantage of the false sense of security those entrancing clouds of synthetic instrumentation create (“Benighted Path to Darkness Mysterium,” “Reign in Cosmic Majesty”). Simply put, Celestial Twilight is an unexpected gem of a symphonic black metal record, bursting with killer ideas and infinite levels of raw, unabashed fun. You should hear it!

Kronos’ Unexpected Unearthments

Street Sects // Dry Drunk [August 15th, 2025 – Self Release]

Dry Drunk sticks to your inner surfaces, draining down like cigarette tar along paralyzed cilia to pool in your lungs until the cells themselves foment rebellion. Once it’s in you, you feel paranoid, wretched, and alone. So it’s the proper follow-up to Street Sects’ visionary debut, End Position. Like that record, Dry Drunk plumbs the most mundane and unsavory gutters of America for a cast of protagonists that it dwells in or dispatches with a mixture of pity and disgust, with vocalist Leo Ashline narrating their violent crimes and self-hatred in a mixture of croons, shrieks, and snarls that cook the air before the speakers into the scent of booze and rotten teeth. And like that record, Shaun Ringsmuth (Glassing) dresses the sets with a fractal litter of snaps, squeals, crashes, gunshots, and grinding electronics, caked in tar and collapsing just as soon as it is swept into a structure. And like End Position, Dry Drunk is a masterpiece. The impeccable six-song stretch from “Love Makes You Fat” through “Riding the Clock” ties you to the bumper and drags you along some of the duo’s most creative side-roads, through the simmering, straightjacketed sludge of “Baker Act” to the chopped-up, smirking electronica of “Eject Button.” Swerving between addled, unintelligible agony and unforgettable anthems, Dry Drunk, like End Position before it is nothing less than the life of a junkie scraped together, heated on a spoon, and injected into your head. Once you’ve taken a hit, you will never be quite the same.

Thus Spoke’s Frightening Fragments

Defacement // Doomed [August 22nd, 2025 – Self Release]

There’s music for every vibe.1 The one Defacement fits is an exclusively extreme metal flavor of moody that is only appreciable by genre fans, made tangibly more eerie by their persistent idiosyncratic use of dark ambient interludes amidst the viciously distorted blackened death. Audiences—and reviewers—tend to disparage these electronic segments, but I’ve always felt their crackling presence increases the analog horror of it all, and rather than being a breather from the intensity, they prolong the nausea, the sense of emptiness, and the abject fearfulness of head-based trauma. This latter concept grows more metaphorical still on Doomed, where the violence is inside the mind, purpose-erasing, and emotionally-detaching. The ambience might be the most sadly beautiful so far (“Mournful,” and “Clouded” especially), and the transitions into nightmarish heaviness arguably the most fluid. And the metal is undoubtedly the most ambitious, dynamic, and magnificent of Defacement’s career, combining their most gruesome dissonance (“Portrait”) with their most bizarrely exuberant guitar melodies (“Unexplainable,” “Unrecognised”). Solos drip tangibly with (emotional) resonance (“Unexplainable,” “Absent”) and there’s not a breath or a moment of wasted space. Yes, the band’s heavier side can suffer from a nagging sense of homogeneous mass, but it remains transporting. While I can appreciate why others do not appreciate Defacement, this is the first of their outings I can truthfully say mesmerised me on first listen.

ClarkKent’s Heated Hymns

Phantom Fire // Phantom Fire [August 8th, 2025 – Edged Circle Productions]

While I waded through the murky depths of the August promo sump, Steel implored me to take the eponymous third album from Phantom Fire. “The AMG commentariat love blackened heavy metal,” he said. I disregarded his advice at my peril, and while I ended up enjoying what I grabbed, it turns out this would have been solid too. Featuring members from Enslaved, Kraków. Hellbutcher, and Aeternus, Phantom Fire play old school speed metal that harks back to the likes of Motörhead and Iron Maiden’s Killers. Thanks to healthy doses of bass and production values that allow the instruments to shine, each song is infused with energetic grooves. The music sounds fresh, crisp, and clear, from the booming drums to Eld’s “blackened” snarls. Early tracks “Eternal Void” and “All For None” show off the catchy blend of simple guitar riffs and a hoppin’ bass accompanied by energetic kit work. While placing a somewhat lengthy instrumental track in the middle of a record usually slows it down, “Fatal Attraction” turns out to be a highlight. It tells a tragic love story involving a motorcycle with nothing but instruments, an engine revving, and some police sirens. The second half of Phantom Fire gets a bit on the weirder side, turning to some stoner and psychedelia. There’s a push and pull between the stoner and Motörhead speed stuff on songs like “Malphas” and “Submersible Pt. 2,” and this blend actually works pretty well. It turns out that they aren’t phantom after all—these guys are truly fire.

Burning Witches // Inquisition [August 22nd, 2025 – Napalm Records]

With six albums in eight years, Swiss quintet Burning Witches has really been burning rubber. While such prolific output in such a short time frame generally spells trouble, Inquisition is a solid piece of heavy/power metal. Burning Witches dabbles in a mix of speedy power metal and mid-tempo heavy metal, often sounding like ’80s stalwarts Judas Priest and Def Leppard. With Laura Guldemond’s gruff voice, they produce a more weighty, less happy version of power metal than the likes of Fellowship or Frozen Crown. While the songs stick to formulaic structures, tempo shifts from song to song help keep things from growing stale. We see this variety right from the get-go, where “Soul Eater” takes a high-energy approach before moving into the more mellow “Shame.” There’s even a pretty solid ballad, “Release Me,” that grounds the back half of the record. Songs of the sort that Burning Witches write need catchy choruses, and fortunately, they deliver. “High Priestess of the Night” is a particular standout, delivering a knock-out punch in its delivery. It helps that the instrumental parts are well-executed, from crunchy riffs to subdued solos to booming blast beats. Anyone looking for a solid bit of power metal that’s not too heavy on the cheese will find this worth a listen.

Deathhammer // Crimson Dawn [August 29th, 2025 – Hells Headbangers Records]

Celebrating 20 years of blackened speed, Deathhammer drop LP number six with the kind of energy that exhausted parents dread to see in their children at bedtime. This is my first foray with the band, and I am in awe of the relentless level of manic energy they keep throughout Crimson Dawn’s 39 minutes. If science could learn how to harness their energy, we’d have an endless source of renewables. The two-piece out of Norway channels classic Slayer on crack and even has moments reminiscent of Painkiller-era Judas Priest. They play non-stop thrash cranked to 11, with persistent blast beats and some dual guitar parts that leave your head spinning from the rapid-fire directions the riffs fire off in. The heart of the mania is singer Sergeant Salsten. His crazed vocals are amazing—snarling, shouting, and shrieking in a way that took me back to the manic pitch Judge Doom could reach in Who Framed Roger Rabbit? He sings so fast that on the chorus of “Crimson Dawn,” it sounds like he says “Griffindor,” which had me searching confusedly for the Harry Potter tag. This was probably my favorite song, not just because of the Griffindor thing, but because that chorus is so catchy. Either way, it’s tough to pick a standout track because they all grip you by the throat and don’t let go. Crimson Dawn is a ton of fun and a must listen if you like your music fast.

Grin Reaper’s Bountiful Blight

Kallias // Digital Plague [August 14th, 2025 – Self Release]

Machine gun drumming, spacey synths, Morbid Angel-meets-Meshuggah riffing, Turian-esque barking and Voyager-reminiscent vocal melodies…what the fuck is going on here? The only thing more surprising than someone having the moxie to blend all these things together is how well they work in concert. Kallias doesn’t hold back on sophomore album Digital Plague, and the result is a rocket-fueled blast through forty-four minutes of eclectic, addictive prog. The mishmash of styles keeps the album fresh and unpredictable while never dipping its toes in inconsistent waters, and staccato rhythms propel listeners through eight tracks without losing steam. As with any prog metal worth its salt, Kallias brandishes technical prowess, and their cohesion belies the relatively short time they’ve been putting out music.2 The mix is well-suited to spotlight whoever needs it at a given time, whether the bass is purring (“Exogíini Kyriarchía”), the drums are being annihilated (“Pyrrhic Victory”), or a guitar solo nears Pettrucian wankery (“Phenomenal in Theory”). The end result is three-quarters of an hour filled with myriad influences that fuse into a sound all Kallias’s own, and it’s one I’ve returned to several times since discovering (also, credit to MontDoom for his stunning artwork, which helped initially draw my attention). Check it out—you’ll be sick if you avoid this one like the Plague.

Luke’s Kaleidoscopic Kicks

Giant Haze // Cosmic Mother [August 22nd, 2025 – Tonzonen Records]

Whereas many of my colleagues are bracing themselves for cooler conditions and harsh winters to come, in my neck of the woods, things are warming up. While my own wintry August filter proved scarce, there was one particular summery gem to lift moods with burly riffs and fat stoner grooves. Unheralded German act Giant Haze seemingly emerged out of nowhere during a random Bandcamp deep dive. Debut LP Cosmic Mother channels the good old days of ’90s-inspired desert rock, featuring grungy, doomy vibes via a groovy batch of riff-centric, hard-rocking and uplifting jams, evoking the nostalgic spirit of Kyuss, Fu Manchu, Clutch and perhaps even a dash of Danzig. Punching out raucous, groove-soaked hard rockers with skyscraping hooks (“Geographic Gardens Suck,” “King of Tomorrow,” “Panic to Ride”), summery, funk–psych jams (“Sunrise”), and bluesy, punk-infused fireballs (“Crank in Public,” “Shrink Age”) Giant Haze get a lot of things right on this assured debut. The songwriting is deceptively diverse and punchy, bolstered by solid production, tight musicianship, and the swaggering, ever so slightly goofy vocal charms and powerful hooks of frontman Christoph Wollmann. Inevitably, a few rough spots appear, but overall Cosmic Mother showcases oodles of budding potential, an impactful delivery, cheeky sense of humor, and infectious, feel-good songcraft.

Bask // The Turning [August 22nd, 2025 – Season of Mist]

Last seen in 2019, Bask returns with fourth LP, The Turning, a concept album following The Rider as she and The Traveler traverse the stars. They still peddle the unique blend of stoner rock and Americana Kenstrosity reviewed favorably in 2019, but 2025 sees them looking up for inspiration. The Turning incorporates a distinct cosmic bent (“The Traveler,” “The Turning”) and post-rock structures (“Dig My Heels,” “Unwound”). These augmentations to Bask’s core sound are enhanced by the masterful pedal steel of new official member Jed Willis. Whether floating through the firmament or tilling earthly pastures, Willis creates textures both fresh and intensely nostalgic. The infinite shifting vistas of The Turning’s front half coalesce into singular timeless visions on the back half, supporting its conceptual nature in both content and form. Like a combination of Huntsmen and Somali Yacht Club, Bask weaves riffs and melodies heard across the plains and through the void above with an unguarded authenticity felt in your soul.

Dolphin Whisperer’s Disseminating Discharge

Plasmodulated // An Ocean ov Putrid, Stinky, Vile, Disgusting Hell [August 1st, 2025 – Personal Records]

Stinky, sticky, slimy—all adjectives that define the ideal death metal platter. Myk Colby has been trying to chase this perfect balance in a reverb-wonky package with projects like the d-beaten Hot Graves and extra hazy Wharflurch, but vile death metal balance is hard to achieve. However, An Ocean ov Putrid, Stinky, Vile, Disgusting Hell contains a recklessly pinched Demilichian riffage, classic piercing whammy bombs, and spook-minded synth ambience that places Plasmodulated with an odor more pungent than its peers. With an infected ear that festers equally with doom-loaded, Incantation-indebted drags (“Gelatinous Mutation ov Brewed Origin,” “Trapped in the Plasmovoid”) and Voivod-on-jenkem cutaways to foul-throated extravagence (“The Final Fuckening”). An air of intelligent tempo design keeps An Ocean from never feeling trapped in a maze of its own fumes, with Colby’s lush and bubbling synth design seguing tumbles into hammering deathly tremolo runs (“Such Rapid Sphacelation”) and Celtic Frosted riff tumbles (“Drowning in Sputum”) alike, all before swirling about his own tattered, trailing vocal sputters. Steady but slippery, elegant yet effluvial, An Ocean ov Putrid, Stinky, Vile, Disgusting Hell provides the necessary noxious pressure to corrode death metal-loving denizens into pure gloops of stained-denim pit worship. Delivered as labeled, Plasmodulated earns its hazardous declaration. We here at AMG are not liable for any OSHA violations that occur as a result of Plasmodulated consumption on the job, though.

The heat persists, but now the humidity comes in full force as storm systems wreak havoc upon the coasts. I hide in my cramped closet of an office, lest I be washed out once again by an unsuspecting deluge. However, I still send my minions out into the facility, bound by duty to search for those metallic scraps on which we feast.

Fortuitously, most all of those imps I sent out came back alive, and with wares! BEHOLD!

Kenstrosity’s Galactic Gremlin

Silent Millenia // Celestial Twilight: Beyond the Crimson Veil [August 26th, 2025 – Self-Release]

Have you ever seen such a delightfully cheesy cover? Probably, but it’s been a while for me. I bought Celestial Twilight: Beyond the Crimson Veil, the second raw symphonic black metal opus from Finnish one-man act Silent Millenia, on the strength of the artwork alone. Little did I know that what lay beyond this crimson veil was some of the most fun melodic black metal this side of Moonlight Sorcery. The same low-fi roughness that personifies Old Nick’s work grounds Silent Millenia’s starbound songwriting as it traverses the universe with an energetic punch reminiscent of Emperor or Stormkeep (“Awaken the Celestial Spell,” “Daemonic Mastery”). To help differentiate Silent Millenia’s sound from that of their peers, a gothic atmosphere ensorcells much of this material to great effect, merging eerie Victorian melodies with galactic adventurism in an unlikely pair (“Enthrone the Spectral”). Swirling synths and sparkling twinkles abound as well, creating blissful moments of interest as frosty tremolos and piercing blasts take full advantage of the false sense of security those entrancing clouds of synthetic instrumentation create (“Benighted Path to Darkness Mysterium,” “Reign in Cosmic Majesty”). Simply put, Celestial Twilight is an unexpected gem of a symphonic black metal record, bursting with killer ideas and infinite levels of raw, unabashed fun. You should hear it!

Kronos’ Unexpected Unearthments

Street Sects // Dry Drunk [August 15th, 2025 – Self Release]

Dry Drunk sticks to your inner surfaces, draining down like cigarette tar along paralyzed cilia to pool in your lungs until the cells themselves foment rebellion. Once it’s in you, you feel paranoid, wretched, and alone. So it’s the proper follow-up to Street Sects’ visionary debut, End Position. Like that record, Dry Drunk plumbs the most mundane and unsavory gutters of America for a cast of protagonists that it dwells in or dispatches with a mixture of pity and disgust, with vocalist Leo Ashline narrating their violent crimes and self-hatred in a mixture of croons, shrieks, and snarls that cook the air before the speakers into the scent of booze and rotten teeth. And like that record, Shaun Ringsmuth (Glassing) dresses the sets with a fractal litter of snaps, squeals, crashes, gunshots, and grinding electronics, caked in tar and collapsing just as soon as it is swept into a structure. And like End Position, Dry Drunk is a masterpiece. The impeccable six-song stretch from “Love Makes You Fat” through “Riding the Clock” ties you to the bumper and drags you along some of the duo’s most creative side-roads, through the simmering, straightjacketed sludge of “Baker Act” to the chopped-up, smirking electronica of “Eject Button.” Swerving between addled, unintelligible agony and unforgettable anthems, Dry Drunk, like End Position before it is nothing less than the life of a junkie scraped together, heated on a spoon, and injected into your head. Once you’ve taken a hit, you will never be quite the same.

Thus Spoke’s Frightening Fragments

Defacement // Doomed [August 22nd, 2025 – Self Release]

There’s music for every vibe.1 The one Defacement fits is an exclusively extreme metal flavor of moody that is only appreciable by genre fans, made tangibly more eerie by their persistent idiosyncratic use of dark ambient interludes amidst the viciously distorted blackened death. Audiences—and reviewers—tend to disparage these electronic segments, but I’ve always felt their crackling presence increases the analog horror of it all, and rather than being a breather from the intensity, they prolong the nausea, the sense of emptiness, and the abject fearfulness of head-based trauma. This latter concept grows more metaphorical still on Doomed, where the violence is inside the mind, purpose-erasing, and emotionally-detaching. The ambience might be the most sadly beautiful so far (“Mournful,” and “Clouded” especially), and the transitions into nightmarish heaviness arguably the most fluid. And the metal is undoubtedly the most ambitious, dynamic, and magnificent of Defacement’s career, combining their most gruesome dissonance (“Portrait”) with their most bizarrely exuberant guitar melodies (“Unexplainable,” “Unrecognised”). Solos drip tangibly with (emotional) resonance (“Unexplainable,” “Absent”) and there’s not a breath or a moment of wasted space. Yes, the band’s heavier side can suffer from a nagging sense of homogeneous mass, but it remains transporting. While I can appreciate why others do not appreciate Defacement, this is the first of their outings I can truthfully say mesmerised me on first listen.

ClarkKent’s Heated Hymns

Phantom Fire // Phantom Fire [August 8th, 2025 – Edged Circle Productions]

While I waded through the murky depths of the August promo sump, Steel implored me to take the eponymous third album from Phantom Fire. “The AMG commentariat love blackened heavy metal,” he said. I disregarded his advice at my peril, and while I ended up enjoying what I grabbed, it turns out this would have been solid too. Featuring members from Enslaved, Kraków. Hellbutcher, and Aeternus, Phantom Fire play old school speed metal that harks back to the likes of Motörhead and Iron Maiden’s Killers. Thanks to healthy doses of bass and production values that allow the instruments to shine, each song is infused with energetic grooves. The music sounds fresh, crisp, and clear, from the booming drums to Eld’s “blackened” snarls. Early tracks “Eternal Void” and “All For None” show off the catchy blend of simple guitar riffs and a hoppin’ bass accompanied by energetic kit work. While placing a somewhat lengthy instrumental track in the middle of a record usually slows it down, “Fatal Attraction” turns out to be a highlight. It tells a tragic love story involving a motorcycle with nothing but instruments, an engine revving, and some police sirens. The second half of Phantom Fire gets a bit on the weirder side, turning to some stoner and psychedelia. There’s a push and pull between the stoner and Motörhead speed stuff on songs like “Malphas” and “Submersible Pt. 2,” and this blend actually works pretty well. It turns out that they aren’t phantom after all—these guys are truly fire.

Burning Witches // Inquisition [August 22nd, 2025 – Napalm Records]

With six albums in eight years, Swiss quintet Burning Witches has really been burning rubber. While such prolific output in such a short time frame generally spells trouble, Inquisition is a solid piece of heavy/power metal. Burning Witches dabbles in a mix of speedy power metal and mid-tempo heavy metal, often sounding like ’80s stalwarts Judas Priest and Def Leppard. With Laura Guldemond’s gruff voice, they produce a more weighty, less happy version of power metal than the likes of Fellowship or Frozen Crown. While the songs stick to formulaic structures, tempo shifts from song to song help keep things from growing stale. We see this variety right from the get-go, where “Soul Eater” takes a high-energy approach before moving into the more mellow “Shame.” There’s even a pretty solid ballad, “Release Me,” that grounds the back half of the record. Songs of the sort that Burning Witches write need catchy choruses, and fortunately, they deliver. “High Priestess of the Night” is a particular standout, delivering a knock-out punch in its delivery. It helps that the instrumental parts are well-executed, from crunchy riffs to subdued solos to booming blast beats. Anyone looking for a solid bit of power metal that’s not too heavy on the cheese will find this worth a listen.

Deathhammer // Crimson Dawn [August 29th, 2025 – Hells Headbangers Records]

Celebrating 20 years of blackened speed, Deathhammer drop LP number six with the kind of energy that exhausted parents dread to see in their children at bedtime. This is my first foray with the band, and I am in awe of the relentless level of manic energy they keep throughout Crimson Dawn’s 39 minutes. If science could learn how to harness their energy, we’d have an endless source of renewables. The two-piece out of Norway channels classic Slayer on crack and even has moments reminiscent of Painkiller-era Judas Priest. They play non-stop thrash cranked to 11, with persistent blast beats and some dual guitar parts that leave your head spinning from the rapid-fire directions the riffs fire off in. The heart of the mania is singer Sergeant Salsten. His crazed vocals are amazing—snarling, shouting, and shrieking in a way that took me back to the manic pitch Judge Doom could reach in Who Framed Roger Rabbit? He sings so fast that on the chorus of “Crimson Dawn,” it sounds like he says “Griffindor,” which had me searching confusedly for the Harry Potter tag. This was probably my favorite song, not just because of the Griffindor thing, but because that chorus is so catchy. Either way, it’s tough to pick a standout track because they all grip you by the throat and don’t let go. Crimson Dawn is a ton of fun and a must listen if you like your music fast.

Grin Reaper’s Bountiful Blight

Kallias // Digital Plague [August 14th, 2025 – Self Release]

Machine gun drumming, spacey synths, Morbid Angel-meets-Meshuggah riffing, Turian-esque barking and Voyager-reminiscent vocal melodies…what the fuck is going on here? The only thing more surprising than someone having the moxie to blend all these things together is how well they work in concert. Kallias doesn’t hold back on sophomore album Digital Plague, and the result is a rocket-fueled blast through forty-four minutes of eclectic, addictive prog. The mishmash of styles keeps the album fresh and unpredictable while never dipping its toes in inconsistent waters, and staccato rhythms propel listeners through eight tracks without losing steam. As with any prog metal worth its salt, Kallias brandishes technical prowess, and their cohesion belies the relatively short time they’ve been putting out music.2 The mix is well-suited to spotlight whoever needs it at a given time, whether the bass is purring (“Exogíini Kyriarchía”), the drums are being annihilated (“Pyrrhic Victory”), or a guitar solo nears Pettrucian wankery (“Phenomenal in Theory”). The end result is three-quarters of an hour filled with myriad influences that fuse into a sound all Kallias’s own, and it’s one I’ve returned to several times since discovering (also, credit to MontDoom for his stunning artwork, which helped initially draw my attention). Check it out—you’ll be sick if you avoid this one like the Plague.

Luke’s Kaleidoscopic Kicks

Giant Haze // Cosmic Mother [August 22nd, 2025 – Tonzonen Records]

Whereas many of my colleagues are bracing themselves for cooler conditions and harsh winters to come, in my neck of the woods, things are warming up. While my own wintry August filter proved scarce, there was one particular summery gem to lift moods with burly riffs and fat stoner grooves. Unheralded German act Giant Haze seemingly emerged out of nowhere during a random Bandcamp deep dive. Debut LP Cosmic Mother channels the good old days of ’90s-inspired desert rock, featuring grungy, doomy vibes via a groovy batch of riff-centric, hard-rocking and uplifting jams, evoking the nostalgic spirit of Kyuss, Fu Manchu, Clutch and perhaps even a dash of Danzig. Punching out raucous, groove-soaked hard rockers with skyscraping hooks (“Geographic Gardens Suck,” “King of Tomorrow,” “Panic to Ride”), summery, funk–psych jams (“Sunrise”), and bluesy, punk-infused fireballs (“Crank in Public,” “Shrink Age”) Giant Haze get a lot of things right on this assured debut. The songwriting is deceptively diverse and punchy, bolstered by solid production, tight musicianship, and the swaggering, ever so slightly goofy vocal charms and powerful hooks of frontman Christoph Wollmann. Inevitably, a few rough spots appear, but overall Cosmic Mother showcases oodles of budding potential, an impactful delivery, cheeky sense of humor, and infectious, feel-good songcraft.

Spicie Forrest’s Foraged Fruit

Bask // The Turning [August 22nd, 2025 – Season of Mist]

Last seen in 2019, Bask returns with fourth LP, The Turning, a concept album following The Rider as she and The Traveler traverse the stars. They still peddle the unique blend of stoner rock and Americana Kenstrosity reviewed favorably in 2019, but 2025 sees them looking up for inspiration. The Turning incorporates a distinct cosmic bent (“The Traveler,” “The Turning”) and post-rock structures (“Dig My Heels,” “Unwound”). These augmentations to Bask’s core sound are enhanced by the masterful pedal steel of new official member Jed Willis. Whether floating through the firmament or tilling earthly pastures, Willis creates textures both fresh and intensely nostalgic. The infinite shifting vistas of The Turning’s front half coalesce into singular timeless visions on the back half, supporting its conceptual nature in both content and form. Like a combination of Huntsmen and Somali Yacht Club, Bask weaves riffs and melodies heard across the plains and through the void above with an unguarded authenticity felt in your soul.

Dolphin Whisperer’s Disseminating Discharge

Plasmodulated // An Ocean ov Putrid, Stinky, Vile, Disgusting Hell [August 1st, 2025 – Personal Records]

Stinky, sticky, slimy—all adjectives that define the ideal death metal platter. Myk Colby has been trying to chase this perfect balance in a reverb-wonky package with projects like the d-beaten Hot Graves and extra hazy Wharflurch, but vile death metal balance is hard to achieve. However, An Ocean ov Putrid, Stinky, Vile, Disgusting Hell contains a recklessly pinched Demilichian riffage, classic piercing whammy bombs, and spook-minded synth ambience that places Plasmodulated with an odor more pungent than its peers. With an infected ear that festers equally with doom-loaded, Incantation-indebted drags (“Gelatinous Mutation ov Brewed Origin,” “Trapped in the Plasmovoid”) and Voivod-on-jenkem cutaways to foul-throated extravagence (“The Final Fuckening”). An air of intelligent tempo design keeps An Ocean from never feeling trapped in a maze of its own fumes, with Colby’s lush and bubbling synth design seguing tumbles into hammering deathly tremolo runs (“Such Rapid Sphacelation”) and Celtic Frosted riff tumbles (“Drowning in Sputum”) alike, all before swirling about his own tattered, trailing vocal sputters. Steady but slippery, elegant yet effluvial, An Ocean ov Putrid, Stinky, Vile, Disgusting Hell provides the necessary noxious pressure to corrode death metal-loving denizens into pure gloops of stained-denim pit worship. Delivered as labeled, Plasmodulated earns its hazardous declaration. We here at AMG are not liable for any OSHA violations that occur as a result of Plasmodulated consumption on the job, though.
