Fange - Pudeur


 Have you recently been seduced by blackened industrial? Are you Industrial-Metal-Curious? Francophilic? Well, have I got a bargain for you!

Brittany's (France) Fange ostensibly plays sludge metal, but their most recent full-length, Pudeur, sees them in full-on Industrial assault mode, and it is glorious.

Somewhere between Hexis and Alec Empire, where digital hardcore and "harsh sludge" meet, you find Fange, smashing your face in with am Entombed riff and a Godflesh flourish.

If you are olde like me, and miss the overdrive-driven industrial noise metal of the 1990s, this is a Fudge Tunnel colored nostalgia machine.

Agriculture - Agriculture

  a   While calling themselves ''ecstatic" black metal, Agriculture traipses along the line between atmo-black and blackgaze pretty adroitly. I am not as head over heels as some of the metal press I have been reading about them (like Rolling Stone for instance), but I think they have a good thing going here. They remind me of Vattnet Viskar sort of, and I am going to withhold judgement until I can see them live to really decide.  That said, this is an album that has been in heavy rotation at my house since its release.

Perturbator - Lustful Sacraments

  This album answers an incredibly important question: What if Rick Deckard was a goth? A goth replicant that could pass the Voight-Kampff test easily. More importantly, it provides a stunning backdrop to the writing I am supposed to be doing, but keep avoiding. French composer James Kent has always been something of a polarizing figure. Much of his earlier work has been very HOTLINE MIAMI style synthwave. This is most definitely NOT THAT. Instead you a weird robot sex soundtrack - a post-punk mood piece cloaked in goth rock nihilism and sexual malevolence. Gritty, misanthropic, but still atmospheric and ambient, this is some nice stuff! Lustful Sacraments by PERTURBATOR

Dødsferd - Skotos

  Raw atmospheric black metal it it's sun soaked Mediterranean best. Wait... That's not right. Oh, but it is. For 20 years, Greece has been the home of Dødsferd since it's beginning as a one-man side project. Now, 10 albums, as many splits and EPs, and five comps, two new songs are available. Packaged with a re-release of the landmark album 'Diseased Remnants of a Dying World', what you have here is the pinnacle of what raw atmo-black can be. A full LP of this would easily be Album of the Year. I can still hope right? Skotos (Atmospheric Black Metal) by DØDSFERD (Greece)
