The Eternal Fanfare is a good place to whet your appetite between full length albums, as Hulder’s star will only continue to shine brighter over time.
Hulder’s ability to draw beauty from such harsh music helps separate her from the pack in using some of the things that set bands like Immortal and Emperor apart from their contemporaries. Opening with a 3-minute intro, Hulder then goes full bore into “Burden of Flesh and Bone,” feeling as though she is riding into battle betwixt the galloping drums and sheer speed at which the music is being played. Hulder on record is a one-woman project and what you expect is something melancholic, medieval, with a flair for some of black metal’s earliest iterations. It’s fresh off their full-length debut Godslastering: Hymns Of A Forlorn Peasantry which made waves last year. Hulder, the Hungarian black metal entity by way of Washington state return with The Eternal Fanfare EP. (Mike Huck) 20 Buck Spin Hulder – The Eternal Fanfare (20 Buck Spin)

Despite this misgiving, Windows Of Your Heart is a fun romp through fields of traditional metal, and fans of the band (and other similar acts such as Dawnbringer) will definitely enjoy it. Church’s voice is like a mix of Ozzy and Perry Farrell, and his rough around the edges delivery will be charming to some, and too loose for others.Īs with every Haunt record, there are a number of gems (“Mercenaries,” “Father Time,” “No Control” and more) and a number of “filler” songs (Church himself says the album is based on a few songs written for playing live). Windows Of Your Heart is his seventh album in just five years – this guy is prolific! This album is more reality-based rather than swords & sorcery, and centers on Church’s feelings for his newborn son. Haunt is the traditional heavy metal project of Trevor William Church (Beastmaker). (Mike Huck) Iron Grip/Church Recordings Haunt – Windows Of Your Heart (Iron Grip/Church) All told, this makes Mirrorcell a very satisfying sophomore release that seems to be bringing out the best of Greg Puciato. His vocals are in prime shape here, from hushed whispers to all-out hardcore screams, and his keyboard and guitar work is perfectly suited to the material. Here on his second solo album Mirrorcell, Puciato hones in on his personal style with a focused collection of songs on which he sing and plays all instruments except drums.įrom the ferocity of “Reality Spiral” to the morose “Never Wanted That” to the languid, electronic “We,” Puciato displays a deft songwriting touch. (Chad Bowar) Federal Prisoner Greg Puciato – Mirrorcell (Federal Prisoner)īest known as the vocalist for trailblazers The Dillinger Escape Plan, Greg Puciato has also done time with Killer Be Killed and The Black Queen. It’s a diverse and engaging death metal album. The instrumental “The Reprieve” lives up to its title, providing a brief moment of serenity before the metal kicks back in.
A Fitting Revenge are continually shifting tempos and intensities, going from blazing extremity to moderately paced grooves. There are are also elements of tech death and metalcore with touches of thrash here and there. Those melodies come from the guitars, as the vocals are harsh throughout. The dominant style on Omnipresence is melodic death metal. The band mixes a variety of genres with sci-fi based lyrics, and every song title on the album starts with “The.” A Fitting Revenge – Omnipresence (Self)įive years after their debut, Rochester New York’s A Fitting Revenge return with Omnipresence.
