Note: Reviews are graded from 0-5, anything higher or not showing is from our old style. Scores, however, do not reveal the important features. The written review that accompanies the ratings is the best source of information regarding the music on our site. Reviewing is opinionated, not a qualitative science, so scores are personal to the reviewer and could reflect anything from being technically brilliant to gloriously cheesy fun.

Demos and independent releases get some slack since the bands are often spent broke supporting themselves and trying to improve. Major releases usually have big financial backing, so they may be judged by a heavier hand. All scores can be eventually adjusted up or down by comparison of subsequent releases by the same band. We attempt to keep biases out of reviews and be advocates of the consumer without the undo influence of any band, label, management, promoter, etc.

The best way to determine how much you may like certain music is to listen to it yourself.

Prepare to enter a deep, dark cavern filled with haunting, unrelenting black metal riffing, and harsh, agonized vocals. These sounds echo about and envelop you entirely, never ceasing, never slowing. After a time the fear will subside and the desire to escape will leave; “The Extra Dimensional Wound” will forever hold a unique place in the thrash-blackened crevices of your mind. As opposed to experiencing Death via a Lightening Sword, you will be soon acquainted with Enlightenment and Fulfillment. Do not be afraid; go forth and explore. Rewards shall abound.
