I came across this disc on my Bandcamp feed a couple of weeks ago, and it immediately caught my ear, and I liked it a lot. I thought it was a 2025 release, but it seems that this was originally self-released in 2022, and I completely missed it. That's okay, though, because it's new to me now, and I am enjoying it.

After the 80s, I hadn't listened to much of Helstar's later material until a few months back, when our friend Bongripper dropped in here and promoted this disc in the chatbox. He actually said that he doesn't listen to this style of metal much anymore, but if he were going to, this would be one of the albums he would take the time for. That is all it took to get me to listen to this one, and I really enjoyed it, so much so that I went back and listened to their 2016 album, and I am liking it as well. It is also awesome to see that Larry Barragán and James Rivera are still together after all of these years.

I was a big fan of this band back in the 80s, but as my tastes changed at the end of that decade, I lost them after Nosferatu in '89. I haven't listened to much of their newer material until this year, and now I am here to say that this album is very good, along with their newest album too.

Our old friend SourceRa first turned me onto this band a few years ago, and I was happy to see this new EP several months back, and it picks up right where the previous left off. I am waiting for these guys to release a full-length. I want to hear what they create in a longer format.

The new release from Abstractyss that I have been waiting for ever since I heard their first album 2 years ago, and I want to say that it has proven to be worth the wait. This new album is technical, aggressive, and just flat out killer from first to last. Top shelf Barvarian death metal!

Voorhees is a band that I have primarily ignored over the years, and I am not sure why, because they have always received a lot of praise around here from various people, and I am discovering that it is well justified. I've been listening to all 3 of the albums I've posted here today, and they are all very good. Don't be a stubborn old fool like me and miss out on these guys, they create some killer music.

Here is another good album from a relatively new or lesser-known Swedish band in 2025. Undecayed have been active since 2008, but other than a demo in 2011, this is their first release, and it shows that they have talent, even though they don't have the output.
