Last Four Instrumental Metal Album Reviews of 2011

Zebulon Pike, Morkobot, Animals as Leaders, and Abnormal Thought Patterns!

 
Limerick Review : LOU REED & METALLICA - "The View", Directed by Darren Aronofsky

It’s a generic jam session with simple superimposition as its best effect; anyone could have shot this. So as we all question why, I’ll cope through limerick (#36!), cuz that’s how I roll sometimes.

 
ROADBURN 2012 - An Adventure in Heavy Metal

Roadburn has evolved into a mighty four-day event, with the earlier years’ Afterburner Party now mushroomed into a full day of destruction, and the impressive result is 70+ groups gathered with thousands of dedicated fans for the best bender of the year.

 
THIS Is A Fucking Death Metal EP : IMMOLATION - "Providence"

Rating: 4.5/5

This as an ideal time for Immolation to freely disseminate their material with the Scion backing, because no NYDM band this side of Suffocation is as universally respected as these trailblazers, and the kids need to recognize.

 
Better in Threes - CRADLE OF FILTH, CYNIC, LE SCIMMIE

Patterns, yay! I think the end of the year is making me crave shorter albums and greater efficiency—so yes, expect more of these in threes. Here’s “Evermore Darkly”, “Carbon-Based Anatomy”, and “Dromomania” for intensifying your holiday season.

 
Review : CHASMA – "Declarations of the Grand Artificer"

Rating: 3/5

The Breath of Mozym emerges to not only rate, but write a fucking SONG for this review!

Review : SATAN'S HOST - "Celebration: For the Love of Satan" and "By the Hands of the Devil" (Some JAG PANZER, Too)

Now there’s another band to lure you in a life of evil, but they come with the demise of power metal legends.

EP Madness with MITHRAS, HAMMER FIGHT, and THE EMPIRE SHALL FALL

Reviews for “Time Never Lasts”, the eponymous Hammer Fight, and “Solar Plexus: Part One” …all more or less self-released, too!
